Story summary

The New York Rangers suffered a 7-1 defeat against their rivals, the New Jersey Devils, in an early-season matchup on October 15, 2026. Rookie goaltender Dylan Garand, who had been impressive in his first two starts after Igor Shesterkin's season-ending injury, was pulled less than five minutes into the second period after allowing four goals on 14 shots. The Devils scored four quick goals within just over five minutes, starting with Evan Rodrigues' goal at the end of the first period and Luke Hughes scoring twice early in the second. Despite strong performances earlier this season, Garand's struggles highlighted the Rangers' vulnerability without Shesterkin for the next six months.
