Miller one-timed a pass from Mika Zibanejad<\/a> past Montreal goalie Jacob Fowler<\/a> after he tied the game in the second period.<\/p>\n

Noah Laba, Artemi Panarin and Will Cuylle also scored, Connor Sheary and Matthew Robertson each had two assists and Igor Shesterkin made 12 saves for the Rangers (16-13-4), who snapped a three-game losing streak.<\/p>\n

Zachary Bolduc, Arber Xhekaj, Jake Evans and Josh Anderson scored, Nick Suzuki and Lane Hutson each had two assists and Fowler made 21 saves for the Canadiens (16-11-4), who have lost three of four.<\/p>\n

The Canadiens took a 1-0 lead at 12:41 of the first period on their first shot of the game when Bolduc redirected in a pass from Suzuki.<\/p>\n

Xhekaj made it 2-0 Montreal at 14:10 when he scored his first goal of the season on a wrist shot from the blue line. The first two goals came on the Canadiens\u2019 first two shots of the game.<\/p>\n

Evans made it 3-0 at 16:18 when he beat Shesterkin with a wrist shot from the left side.<\/p>\n

Laba cut the Canadiens\u2019 lead to 3 -1 with a power-play goal at 18:49.<\/p>\n

Panarin made it 3-2 just 19 seconds later on a penalty shot at 19:08. Panarin, who beat Fowler to the blocker side, was awarded the penalty shot after being taken down from behind by Noah Dobson on a breakaway. It was his first penalty-shot goal in his NHL career.<\/p>\n

Montreal regained a two-goal lead when Anderson\u2019s one-timer from the slot made it 4-2 at 3:17 of the second period.<\/p>\n

The Rangers got it back to 4-3 at 7:22 when Cuylle\u2019s shot from behind the goal line banked off Fowler and into the net. New York tied it 4-4 just 36 seconds later when Miller picked up a rebound in the slot and slid it through Fowler\u2019s pads at 7:58.<\/p>\n

The Rangers appeared to take a 5-4 lead at 5:51 of the third on a goal by Sam Carrick, but the goal was disallowed because it was determined Carrick kicked the puck in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Miller one-timed a pass from Mika Zibanejad past Montreal goalie Jacob Fowler after he tied the game in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":346697,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,575,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-346696","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-nhl","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346696","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=346696"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346696\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/346697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=346696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=346696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=346696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
