Rangers' Dan Girardi: Nets game winner in return to lineup

Girardi scored the game-winning goal in his return to the lineup Sunday against Arizona.

Analysis:

Girardi had missed the past three games with a groin injury, but he wasted no time making an impact in his return. The veteran logged 19:15 of ice time and went plus-2. While he'll continue to see steady minutes for New York, Girardi only netted 17 points last season and is better known for his defensive play than his offensive prowess.
