Red-hot Pirri paces resilient Rangers

Brandon Pirri is fitting in perfectly in his first season with the New York Rangers.

"I'm glad we're the ones who got him," teammate Derek Stepan said after Pirri scored twice to help the Rangers beat the Boston Bruins 5-2 on Wednesday night.

Pirri has four goals and two assists in seven games. The left winger signed with the Rangers as a free agent after splitting last season with Florida and Anaheim.
