Impact Zibanejad's first two helpers came on special teams, setting up Chris Kreider for a power-play goal in the opening period and again for a short-handed tally in the third, before adding a third assist on Jacob Trouba's empty-netter. It's a strong start to the year for the 30-year-old Zibanejad, who posted career highs in goals (39) and points (91) last season. He'll center Kreider and Kaapo Kakko to open the 2023-24 campaign while continuing to work on the Rangers' top power-play unit.
