The New York Rangers beat the Buffalo Sabres 5-1 in their season opener Thursday night.
Buffalo Sabres left wing Jeff Skinner jumps in front of New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin during the third period of an NHL hockey game Thursday, Oct, 12, 2023, in Buffalo, N.Y.
The Rangers won in Peter Laviolette’s debut as coach. In doing so, New York showed, for one game at least, it’s capable of playing a more defensively responsible style following a first-round seven-game playoff exit to New Jersey that led to Gerard Gallant’s dismissal. Shesterkin, appearing in his 159th career game, became the Rangers first goalie to reach 100 wins in fewer than 187 outings. Adam Fox had an assist for his 200th career point in his 285th game. Only five NHL defenseman — led by Quinn Hughes — have reached the milestone in fewer outings.
Rookie Devon Levi stopped 25 shots in becoming the Sabres’ youngest goalie to start a season opener since Mika Noronen in 2000. Levi, a little over a month shy of turning 22, was awarded the starting duties after he signed with the Sabres in March following his sophomore season at Northeastern. He closed with a 5-2 record, including two wins over the Rangers.
