NHL ROUNDUP : Robitaille Lashes Out at Campbell
For Luc Robitaille, the New York Rangers’ 1-1 tie with New Jersey on Monday night was something to shout about.
Robitaille, acquired Aug. 9 from Pittsburgh, was involved in a shouting match with Ranger Coach Colin Campbell after the game and left Madison Square Garden without discussing it. Reportedly, he was frustrated at his lack of playing time.
The Rangers’ Bruce Driver scored first and the Devils’ Bill Guerin tied the game with 14 seconds left in the first period.
Buffalo 2, St. Louis 0--Pat LaFontaine scored two first-period goals, and Dominik Hasek blocked 30 shots for the Sabres at St. Louis.
