Rangers' Mats Zuccarello: Buries game-winner against Caps

Zuccarello scored the game-winning goal in the third period Sunday afternoon, securing a 2-1 victory over the Capitals.

Analysis:

It's been more than a month since Zuccarello's posted a multi-point game, but he's remained moderately productive (eight points in 13 contests) thanks to hitting the scoresheet consistently. Curiously, the Norwegian winger is taking shots at the fastest pace of his career -- 2.52 per game -- but he's still sitting on a nearly career-low 8.2 shooting percentage. It wouldn't be surprising to see Zuccarello experience some positive regression in that category down the stretch.
