New York, NY (SportsNetwork. Cheap Throwback Orioles Jerseys .com) - Carl Hagelins goal with 2:05 remaining in overtime sent the New York Rangers into the All-Star break with a 3-2 victory over the Ottawa Senators. Hagelin added an assist in regulation to help the Rangers enter the break with wins in three straight games and 16 in their past 19 outings. Henrik Lundqvist aided New Yorks cause with a 33-save effort, with Kevin Hayes and Chris Kreider also registering goals in the triumph. Its definitely a character win, Kreider said. We probably didnt have the start we wanted. We had a few lulls, but it says a lot about the leadership in the room that we were able to gather ourselves and be ready to play. Ottawa, which had prevailed in seven straight regular-season visits to Madison Square Garden coming in, received 32 saves from Craig Anderson in a losing cause. Erik Karlsson and Milan Michalek accounted for the Senators two scores. The Rangers overcame a 2-1 deficit after two periods, with Kreider netting the equalizer 2:42 into the third. The young forward got behind the Ottawa defense and beat Anderson 1-on-1 after taking in a pinpoint pass from Marc Staal. Lundqvist kept it tied after 60 minutes by recording 13 saves in the third, and Hagelin charged the net to redirect a give from a spinning Derek Stepan past Anderson to give New York the two points. We just seemed to be short a man there for some reason, said Anderson of the game-winning goal. They got a guy behind our line of defense. The Senators two goals came within a 63-second span in the second period after Hayes had given the Rangers a 1-0 lead earlier in the stanza. Lundqvist stopped Erik Condra in close but the Rangers couldnt clear the puck on the first goal, which set up Karlsson to connect on a wrist shot from the right circle with 6:22 remaining in the middle session. A high-sticking penalty to New Yorks Lee Stempniak led to Ottawas second score. Just nine seconds into the ensuing power play, Michalek slipped the rebound of Alex Chiassons initial attempt under Lundqvists pad to give the Senators a 2-1 edge. The Rangers had a 5-on-3 advantage for over a minute late in the second, but werent able to convert. After a scoreless opening period in which both teams appeared to lack energy, the action picked up considerably in the second. Hayes broke the stalemate 9:29 into the stanza by crashing the net to put in the carom of Dan Girardis long drive, with the goal coming just moments after Lundqvist turned away Bobby Ryan from close range.

A March free-fall saw the team plummet from third in the Eastern Conference to a 38-36-8 finish, good for the eighth-worst record in the League. The teams first order of business once the off-season began was to appoint former NHL Director of Player of Safety and Hockey Hall-of-Famer Brendan Shanahan as the teams new president. While Carlyle could not comment on any impending changes under Shanahan – he is yet to formally meet with his new boss – he summed up the free-fall as a symptom of how the team played throughout the year. “The last 30 days of the season was the tell-tale story for our group,” Carlyle said. “The things that we were doing in the beginning and winning came to fruition in the final 30 days.” He pointed specifically to the teams inability to capitalize on a strong road trip to California in early March as a detrimental turning point in the season. After winning two of three road games against the Anaheim Ducks, San Jose Sharks and Los Angeles Kings in early March, the Leafs returned to the east coast, losing three games in four nights and kicking off what would become an eight-game stretch without earning a single point in the standings. “It seemed we played well enough to earn some respect,” Carlyle said of the California trip. “Then we seemed to have lost our mojo.” Froom then on, the teams confidence seemed to drop every time they conceded an early goal or did not perform up to expectations. Orioles Paul Fry Jersey. . “The first goal would go in and the shoulders would slump, that was the tell-tale sign,” he said. “Our response was very minimal.” The 57-year-old Carlyle has spent parts of three seasons with the team, taking over from previous Leafs head coach Ron Wilson with 18 games remaining in the 2011-12 season. Carlyle would lead the team to a 6-9-3 finish in his first year. His most successful year at the helm would be the following season when he led the Leafs to a 26-17-5 mark in strike shortened 2012-13 and, more importantly, the franchises first playoff berth since 2003-04. They would ultimately suffer a shocking defeat in Game 7 of their opening round series, surrendering a 4-1, third period lead in the final 11 minutes of regulation and falling in overtime to the Boston Bruins. Speaking to the teams 2012-13 success, Carlyle stated that he and the teams management were confident going into the season, but that they may have misjudged the teams strength. “We had been a competitive group the year previous and we felt this group was ready to take the next step,” Carlyle said Tuesday. “It didnt materialize.” Speaking to the teams defensive posture, Carlyle didnt see a consistent effort. “You have to play and you have to compete on the defensive side of the puck with will and commitment,” Carlyle said. “We didnt do that consistently.” “Were not asking players to do something they havent done before,” he added when asked about players molding to his coaching strategy. Carlyle currently has one year remaining on the three-year deal he signed after taking over for Wilson in 2012. He stopped short of offering up explanations for how to turn the Leafs fortunes around, capitulating with: "For now, we dont have the ultimate answer to give you and were embarassed by what just went down."
