Rangers bring losing streak into matchup with the Capitals
The New York Rangers are looking to break a three-game losing streak with a win over the Washington CapitalsFEBRUARY 24, 2023ā¢ASSOCIATED PRESS
Jakob Silfverberg - Pots winner against CapsSilfverberg scored the game-winning goal in Thursday's 4-2 victory over Washington.
ImpactThe 32-year-old had only one goal and six points over his prior 23 contests, but Silfverberg slipped a puck through Charlie Lindgren's five-hole early in the third period to give Anaheim its first and only lead of the night. Silfverberg provides some veteran leadership in the Ducks' top six and led the club's forwards in power-play time Thursday, but that role has not translated into much fantasy value this season -- through 58 games, he has seven goals and 16 points.

Cam Fowler - Two helpers in Thursday's winFowler notched two assists in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Capitals.
ImpactBoth points came in the second period on the Ducks' first two goals of the night. Fowler has three multi-point performances in the last five games, and over the last 14 contests the veteran blueliner has racked up five goals and 14 points, a stunning turnaround after he managed just four points in the prior 17 contests.

Charlie Lindgren - Shaky in Thursday's lossLindgren stopped 17 of 20 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Ducks.
ImpactAnaheim's final goal was scored into an empty net. Lindgren had little chance on the Ducks' first tally, which came on a breakaway after the Capitals defense fell asleep midway through the second period, but the netminder would probably like to have the next two back. Lindgren hasn't seen a lot of work lately behind a healthy Darcy Kuemper, and his recent performance hasn't warranted more action -- over seven appearances since the beginning of January, Lindgren has a 3.12 GAA and an .875 save percentage.

John Gibson - Busy in Thursday's winGibson stopped 41 shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Capitals.
ImpactThe Ducks were outshot 43-21 on the night, but Gibson turned back the clock and for at least one game looked like the guy who would regularly post top-10 ratios in his early 20s. It's his first win in February though, and on the month the 29-year-old netminder has an ugly 4.28 GAA through six starts to go with his 1-3-2 record.
