Rangers' Mika Zibanejad: Three-point effort in win
Mika Zibanejad scored a goal and added two assists, one on the power play, in Monday's 4-1 win over the Red Wings.After getting held off the scoresheet in the New York Rangers' first two games, Zibanejad got rolling with an impressive performance that included a slick shot-pass to Chris Kreider in the second period that produced the game-winner on the power play.
