The New York Rangers have been road warriors thus far this season.
The Rangers, who wrap up a four-game trip Saturday night at the Seattle Kraken, are one of only two NHL teams winless at home but are 5-1-1 away from Madison Square Garden.
New York is 2-1-0 on its current excursion, having won 2-0 Tuesday in Vancouver behind Jonathan Quick's 23-save shutout and 4-3 Thursday in Edmonton on J.T. Miller's overtime winner.
'We need the confidence. I think we liked at least two periods of our game on the road, we were playing a really good (Edmonton) team at home,' Miller said. 'We needed that to build some confidence and see some pucks go in and hopefully that can propel us and keep this going a little bit more on this road trip.
'We have a good chance to finish this off in the right way.'
It was the 15th overtime goal of Miller's career, tying him with the late Johnny Gaudreau for the second-most by an American player in league history. Max Pacioretty, who announced his retirement in late September, leads the way with 16.
Braden Schneider had a goal and an assist for the Rangers and Igor Shesterkin made 33 saves.
The Rangers rallied from a two-goal deficit in the third period for the first time since a 6-5 victory against the New York Islanders in an NHL Stadium Series game Feb. 18, 2024 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.
'Obviously, we're thrilled with the effort to come back. It's an indication of the character that we have in the room,' Rangers coach Mike Sullivan said. 'I think our leadership group led the charge there and it's fun to be a part of something like that when you can come back against a real good team like Edmonton.'
The Kraken have been idle since Tuesday, when they rallied from a three-goal deficit in the third period before losing to Montreal 4-3 in overtime. That extended Seattle's point streak to three games (2-0-1).
Defenseman Brandon Montour scored twice and added an assist and Shane Wright also tallied for the Kraken, who have yet to lose in regulation at home this season (3-0-1).
'It's tough we (went down) 3-0, but get a point,' Montour said. 'You see the confidence, you kind of see how we were in the last 10 (minutes) there, and nice to get a point, but we'd like to obviously create a little bit more throughout the game.'
Montour returned to the lineup last Saturday after missing four games because of the death of his older brother to ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease.
'It's pretty amazing to see (what he's doing),' Wright said of Montour. 'What he's been through the last couple of weeks here, to even just be here, let alone playing as well as he is, and perform at that level. He always performs that way, day in, day out. It's really special.'
This will be the first of two meetings between the teams this season. They're also scheduled to play Jan. 12 in New York.
