Story summary
The New York Rangers kicked off their 2026-27 NHL season with a 3-0 loss against their rivals, the Boston Bruins, on September 29. Despite generating nearly as many shots (24) as the Bruins, the Rangers struggled defensively and relied heavily on goaltender Igor Shesterkin's 20 saves to keep them in the game until late in the third period when Fraser Minten scored the first goal for Boston. Two more quick goals followed shortly after, securing a decisive win for the Bruins. The loss marks consecutive shutout defeats for the Rangers on opening night. Key defensive errors by players like Braden Schneider highlighted the team's early-season issues.
