The New York Rangers secured a 5-2 victory over the New York Islanders on November 3, 2024, with Artemi Panarin scoring twice, including a power-play goal. Chris Kreider, Vincent Trocheck, and Adam Edstrom also contributed to the scoreline, while goalies Igor Shesterkin and Ilya Sorokin each made 35 saves. The Rangers, now in second place in the Eastern Conference with 17 points, have won three of their last four games, while the Islanders are struggling at 10 points, with four losses in their last five matches. Kreider's early short-handed goal set the tone, and Trocheck's milestone 200th goal extended their lead.
