NEW YORK (AP) - The New Jersey Devils accomplished plenty in their home-and-home sweep of the rival New York Rangers.
The Atlantic Division leaders stayed in striking range of the top spot in the Eastern Conference and pushed the Rangers closer to an early summer vacation. Jamie Langenbrunner scored the decisive goal in the shootout after Zach Parise got New Jersey even in the third period, and the Devils beat the Rangers for the second time in three nights, winning 3-2 on Thursday.
Henrik Lundqvist blocked Langenbrunner's drive with his glove, but the puck bounced behind him and went in.
"I saw him get a piece of it," Langenbrunner said. "I thought he might reach and still grab it. It kind of trickled over. It's all the weightlifting I do."
