POST-GAME NOTES



Rangers 4, New Jersey Devils 2
11/14/2007

There was no way the Rangers were going to allow Devils goalie Martin Brodeur to win his 500th career NHL game at their expense on Wednesday night. Jaromir Jagr and the rookie trio of Nigel Dawes, Brandon Dubinsky and Marc Staal made sure of that, as each player scored in a 4-2 win in Newark that gave the Rangers a chance to take the division lead on Thursday.

Recap | Box Score

THREE STARS OF THE GAME
1. J. JAGR-- NYR
2. J. LANGENBRUNER -- NJ
