Sean Leahy at Puck Daddy named Eric Christensen Sunday's second star...No. 2 Star: Erik Christensen, New York Rangers
After going down 2-0 thanks to a pair of late first period goals, the Rangers clawed back in the second with four of their own. Christensen's two goals came 1:46 apart and gave New York a 4-2 lead. Chris Drury added an empty-netter as the Rangers won their second game in a row. The multi-goal game was Christensen's first since March 29, 2007 when he was a member of the Pittsburgh Penguins. Henrik Lundqvist made 27 saves and has won three of his last four. Sean Avery's penalty shot goal early in the second period opened the scoring for the Rangers and started their four-goal comeback.
...big time pick-up off the scrap heap by Sather. Christensen is going to have to be counted on to provide that kind of offense after the break if the Rangers have any chance of making the playoffs.
