NEW YORK — Mats Zuccarello scored two goals in an 11:05 span in the second period to lead the New York Rangers to a 3-1 win over the Montreal Canadiens in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference quarter-finals Saturday. The Senators lead that series 3-2 with Game 6 set for Sunday at TD Garden. Perhaps the most galling aspect of the series for Montreal was that it led 2-1 after the first three games and had a lead in Game 6. Montreal led 1-0 at the first intermission on the strength of Emelin’s first career goal in the Stanley Cup playoffs. He entered the elimination game leading the NHL in shots on goal in the playoffs with 24, but he finished the series without a goal and one assist.
