When the Rangers needed it most, Jaroslav Halak, who finally picked up his first win as a Blueshirt, stopped 34 of the 35 shots in the team’s 3-1 win.
OTTAWA, Ontario — When goalie Jaroslav Halak took the ice for his seventh start of the season Wednesday night against the Senators, he was still in search of his first win as a Ranger.
Halak has had tough games sprinkled throughout his seven appearances so far this season, maybe one or two bad ones from start to finish, but the 37-year-old Slovakian has shown an ability to make difficult saves. The Rangers haven’t always played their best in front of Halak, either, yet he has kept them in games at times.
“Can’t get too high, can’t get too low,” Halak said. “Try to stay somewhere in the middle. It’s a big win for me personally, for us it’s another two points in the standings and we need to move up.”
