The New York Rangers scored four consecutive goals in a span of just over 15 minutes bridging the second and third periods Friday night, and they held on to beat the visiting Detroit Red Wings 4-2. Robby Fabbri and Valtteri Filppula scored five minutes apart in the third period for the Red Wings, who began the second half by taking their seventh consecutive loss (0-6-1). Howard recorded 15 saves in the first period and three more in the second before the Rangers began breaking through just before the midway point. The Red Wings ended Shesterkin’s shutout bid early in the third. He got a stick on a shot into the crease by Trevor Daley, collected the puck and beat Shesterkin.
