Rangers' Henrik Lundqvist: Picks up fifth win in last six

Lundqvist allowed three goals on 24 shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Oilers.

Analysis:

Lundqvist wasn't at his best against a talented offense that has averaged 3.1 goals per game, but he played well enough to win. The Rangers continue to score at a healthy clip, which has allowed their veteran netminder to win five of six games after dropping two of three to open the season. Not that we needed more evidence, but this victory shows that he's matchup-proof, as the Oilers came in with a Western Conference-leading 15 points in 10 games.
