Rangers' Jimmy Vesey: Scores early goal in loss
Jimmy Vesey scored a goal on three shots during Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Hurricanes.Vesey scored his first goal in over a month by finding the net 17 seconds into Sunday's matchup, but that was the only offensive production that the New York Rangers mustered against Pyotr Kochetkov. Vesey was on the ice for just 8:00 against the Hurricanes and has had an inconsistent role lately, as he was a healthy scratch in five of the Rangers' nine games leading up to Sunday's matchup. Despite his goal against Carolina, the 31-year-old's fantasy value remains limited, especially considering he's struggled to stay in the lineup on a regular basis.

Rangers' Jimmy Vesey: Scores first goal of season
Jimmy Vesey scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Red Wings.Vesey missed the first 10 games of the campaign due to a lower-body injury. He's filled a fourth-line role since his return, providing five shots on net and three hits in addition to his goal over three games.
