Rangers Edge 'Hawks
Fans at the United Center were gifted some free hockey Friday night, but it was a present most wished they could return as the Blackhawks fell to the Rangers 3-2. Trailing 2-1 late in the third, Chicago's Brent Seabrook launched a slap shot past goalie Henrik Lundqvist to keep the 'Hawks' hopes alive. Veteran center Chris Drury had other designs, however, when he beat Nikolai Khabibulin for the OT game winner and his second score of the night. Jonathan Toews recorded the other goal for Chicago, who converted only one of 11 power-play chances. The Blackhawks skate down to St. Louis tonight to face the Blues.
