Panarin Propels Rangers, Shatters Franchise Records
The New York Rangers have advanced to the second round of the playoffs, and they have Artemi Panarin to thank for that. The Russian winger was the driving force behind the team’s sweep of the Washington Capitals, culminating in a decisive game-winning goal that not only clinched the series but also etched his name into the franchise’s record books.
Panarin’s clutch performance was a far cry from his disappointing showing in last year’s playoffs, where he failed to find the back of the net even once against the New Jersey Devils.
