Oscar Lindberg scored twice for the New York Rangers in a 4-1 Game Four win Thursday, to even their Second Round Eastern Conference series against the Ottawa Senators at 2-2.
Demonstrating a high level of effectiveness and accuracy, Lindberg had three shots on goal over the course of his 10:56 played in the matchup, with his pair of goals - including the game-winner - coming back-to-back in the second period.
Lindberg's second tally came off a great pass from Michael Grabner on a 2-on-0 rush to make it a 3-0 game.
Such efficacy and depth is at the heart of the plan set out by Rangers head coach Alain Vigneault.
"You have to have four lines that can play," Vigneault told reporters. "Definitely tonight, Oscar's line came up big for us, a couple of big plays. If you expect to win, you're going to need contributions from your whole team, and we definitely got that tonight.
The two clubs face off Saturday for Game 5 at Canadian Tire Centre.
