The New York Rangers survived a scare before prevailing 4-3 in a shootout against the Boston Bruins.

The Rangers led 3-0 following goals from Carl Hagelin, Derek Stepan and Anton Stralman before Boston stormed home in the third period.

David Krejci pegged one back for the Bruins, who sensationally levelled proceedings through Nathan Horton and Brad Marchand in the final two minutes of regulation.

But the Rangers recovered to claim their third straight win courtesy of shootout goals from Rick Nash and Ryan Callahan.

"We have to learn from it. But at the same time we showed some character not giving up and not folding the tent in overtime," Callahan said.

Meanwhile, two third-period goals from Jiri Tlusty led the Carolina Hurricanes to a 4-2 win over the New Jersey Devils.

"I think we're starting to find ways to win, and staying with the game plan," Hurricanes coach Kirk Muller said.

"Last season, when teams would push harder, we'd get away from it. But we're buying in this season."
