The Rangers' three-game goal drought at Madison Square Garden came to an end 57 seconds into the first period on Monday night, but New York couldn't muster anything else in a 3-1 loss to the Minnesota Wild.

While the New York Rangers are unable to score or win on home ice, the San Jose Sharks are having trouble winning anywhere.

The New York Rangers are back at Madison Square Garden for a Monday night matchup with the visiting Minnesota Wild.

Artemi Panarin scored New York's first home goal in four games and Igor Shesterkin made 29 saves, but the Rangers (3-4-1) lost their fourth consecutive home game to start the season. They set an NHL record by getting shut out in their first three home games.

Asked if he felt the team has the urgency he believes it needs to thwart the slow start to the season, the captain said, “That’s the level we need to bring. We need to have that. We can’t just hope things work out. When we play an urgent game, we get results. We haven’t been scoring, but we get results. We need to bear down.”

Trent Frederic scored, Stuart Skinner stopped all 30 shots he faced and the back-to-back defending Western Conference-champion Edmonton Oilers beat the New York Rangers 2-0.

The Rangers top pick in the 2023 draft hadn’t scored in 938 days. But Emery then followed with the game-winning goal at 2:25 of the third period, when he skated into the open slot and finished a quality scoring chance, set up by Cole Reschny.

For a duo that combined to score 37 goals last season — with more expected this season from the young players — it’s been a disappointing start.
