Trading young talent away almost never works for the Blueshirts – and there's no reason to assume why it would be any different this time.

The New York Rangers secured a 5–0 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday night, extending their point streak to nine games (6-0-3) without having suffered a regulation loss since Jan. 4. The game featured a strong team performance from the Rangers and from Matt Rempe in particular, who delivered both a goal and a fight in New York's effort.

Despite the skirmish, Shesterkin completed the game with 20 saves, earning his second consecutive shutout. Alexis Lafreniere, Will Cuylle, Arthur Kaliyev, Artemi Panarin, and Rempe all scored for the Rangers. Rangers head coach Peter Laviolette brushed off the incident as part of the game.

Tuesday night was Matt Rempe’s seventh straight outing for the Rangers after serving an eight-game ban for elbowing/boarding the Stars’ Miro Heiskanen.
