Keith Yandle set up two first-period power-play goals and Henrik Lundqvist made 39 saves and the New York Rangers beat Boston 5-2 on Wednesday night, sending the Bruins to a season-high fourth straight loss. Mats Zuccarello, Derek Stepan, Derick Brassard, J.T. Miller and Rick Nash scored for New York, which won its second straight and inched a little closer to securing a spot in the playoffs with eight games left in the regular season. Lee Stempniak, who had a first-period tally disallowed after an offside review and another shot gloved off the line by Lundqvist in the third period, scored for the Bruins along with Frank Vatrano.
