Rangers Open Season with 6-0 Victory

News summary

The New York Rangers opened their 2024-25 NHL season with a commanding 6-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins, marking the largest margin of victory in a season opener in Rangers history. Igor Shesterkin earned a shutout with 29 saves, becoming the first Rangers goalie to do so in a season opener since 1956. Chris Kreider scored twice, while Alexis Lafreniere, Sam Carrick, Filip Chytil, and Vincent Trocheck also contributed goals, with Chytil scoring his first goal in over 18 months. The Penguins struggled offensively despite initial scoring chances, and their power play was ineffective, going 0 for 3. The Rangers demonstrated a significant talent disparity, dominating the game, particularly after the first few minutes. The Penguins now look to regroup as they head into a road trip following a disappointing start to the season.
