The Rangers led for much of the game Friday night before losing on two late goals by Alex Ovechkin.<\/p>\n<p>It looked like a similar recipe Friday after Pavel Buchnevich gave the Rangers a lead late in the first period with his 11th goal of the season off a perfect pass from defenseman Adam Fox. John Carlson tied it on a rebound with 14:05 left, and the Capitals threatened on an ensuring power play.<\/p>\n<p>But Kinkaid kept the Rangers in the game, and Zibanejad, who exploded for three goals and three assists in the Rangers\u2019 9-0 blowout victory over the Flyers on Wednesday, won it almost singlehandedly. He hounded Capitals defenseman Brenden Dillon in the offensive zone, stole the puck and roofed a shot past Ilya Samsonov.<\/p>\n<p>The Rangers bench erupted before Zibanejad got there to celebrate his unassisted goal and seventh of the season after a rough start. Brett Howden sealed it with an empty-netter with 28 seconds left.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"605\" alt=\"Mika Zibanejad (right) scores the game-winning goal in the Rangers' 3-1 win over the\" class=\"wp-image-17620532 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/Mika-Zibanejad-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/Mika-Zibanejad-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/Mika-Zibanejad-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/Mika-Zibanejad-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/Mika-Zibanejad-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2031 2031w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Mika Zibanejad (right) scores the game-winning goal in the Rangers\u2019 3-1 win over the Capitals.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Kinkaid, the Rangers\u2019 third goaltender, picked up his second victory of the season a week after shutting out the Boston Bruins.
