5 years agoNew York Rangers defenseman Anthony DeAngelo produced a breathtaking display on Thursday against the Devils, finishing a 6-3 win with his first career hat trick and two assists. Artemi Panarin played a big part in the victory as well, notching three points with one goal and two assists. DeAngelo is the 10th player to collect five points in a game this season and the first defenseman. He matched the franchise record for most points in a regular-season game by a defenseman, and he is the first Rangers d-man with a regular-season hat trick since 1982. DeAngelo has taken a huge step forward in his development this season, and there are now only four defensemen in the league with more points than him (36).--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
