Share

NEW YORK (AP) — Artemi Panarin, J.T. Miller, K’Andre Miller and Brett Berard scored and Jonathan Quick made 35 saves as the New York Rangers defeated the Nashville Predators 4-0 on Sunday night.

Mika Zibanejad added two assists as the Rangers won for the sixth time in nine games. Nashville lost its second straight and fell to 6-20-4 on the road, keeping them tied with league-worst San Jose for fewest road wins.

Quick — playing his 800th career game — recorded his third shutout this season and the 63rd of his career. The 39-year-old netminder has 402 career wins, moving him past Chris Osgood into 14th place all-time. He made 20 saves in the third period.
