SALT LAKE CITY (AP) \u2014 Nick DeSimone scored the tiebreaking goal 7:32 into the third period and the Utah Mammoth beat the scuffling New York Rangers 3-2 on Saturday night to snap a four-game losing streak.<\/p>\n
JJ Peterka and Clayton Keller also scored for the Mammoth, who overcame a 2-1 deficit in their seventh comeback victory this season. Karel Vejmelka made 20 saves.<\/p>\n
Vladislav Gavrikov and Artemi Panarin scored for the Rangers, who have lost four consecutive games \u2014 all in regulation and three by one goal. They finished 0-3 on their Western Conference road swing.<\/p>\n
Jonathan Quick stopped 31 shots in a terrific performance for New York.<\/p>\n
DeSimone scored unassisted off a deflection for his second goal this season and first game-winner.<\/p>\n
Utah struck first on Peterka’s goal at the 10:08 of the first period. Peterka poked in the puck with his stick from behind Quick’s skate.<\/p>\n
Gavrikov tied it at 15:19 when Adam Fox’s pass redirected off the shaft of his stick. Panarin gave the Rangers the lead at 8:07 of the second when he scored on a breakaway, with the puck squeezing through Vejmelka and dribbling across the goal line after he initially made the stop.<\/p>\n
Keller pulled the Mammoth even following a takeaway by Kailer Yamamoto, snapping the puck over Quick from close range at 11:15.<\/p>\n
DeSimone fired a slap shot off the shin pad of a Rangers player to put Utah ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SALT LAKE CITY (AP) \u2014 Nick DeSimone scored the tiebreaking goal 7:32 into the third period and the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":303486,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,843,1193,1194,180,322,44,575,1195,1196,85,434,1191,1197,1192],"class_list":{"0":"post-303485","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nhl","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-cars","11":"tag-classifieds","12":"tag-homes","13":"tag-jobs","14":"tag-local","15":"tag-news","16":"tag-nhl","17":"tag-radio","18":"tag-salt-lake","19":"tag-sports","20":"tag-television","21":"tag-traffic","22":"tag-utah","23":"tag-weather"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/303485","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=303485"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/303485\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/303486"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=303485"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=303485"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=303485"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
