Despite lead: Canucks and Rossi extend losing streak
Against the New York Rangers, the Vancouver Canucks suffered their seventh consecutive loss.
The Vancouver Canucks have suffered their seventh consecutive defeat in the NHL.
The Canadian franchise fell 5-1 to the New York Rangers in front of their home crowd.
Strong second period by Rangers proves decisive
The hosts actually took the lead when Elias Pettersson made it 1-0 in the 13th minute. However, the Rangers equalized before the first intermission courtesy of Gabe Perreault (19th).
The Canadians collapsed in the middle frame: Oliver Bjorkstrand turned the game around on the power play (29th). Within four minutes, the visitors from the "Big Apple" then pulled away to a four-goal cushion thanks to Glenn Gawdin (33rd, 37th) and Alexis Lafreniere (36th).
Rossi logs nearly 16 minutes of ice time
Vorarlberg native Marco Rossi was given just under 16 minutes of ice time for the Canucks, registering three shots on goal.
This extends the slump for Vancouver: the Austrian international's team has skated off the ice as losers in each of their last seven games, having won just one of their past 18 outings.
