Rangers relying on lesser lights

NEW YORK - While New York stars Rick Nash and Chris Kreider receive playoff-level attention from the Ottawa Senators, Oscar Lindberg and Tanner Glass are providing an unexpected lift for the Rangers.

Lindberg fired two goals and Glass had two assists as the Rangers beat the Senators 4-1 on Thursday night to tie their NHL Eastern Conference best-of-seven semifinal series at two games apiece.

"I think our line has been doing a really good job, getting pucks back from the forecheck," Lindberg said. "We had two good chances today and we were able to bear down."
