Gabe Perreault is making his call-up to the Rangers count.
The 20-year-old scored his first NHL goal on Thursday night in St. Louis, helping the Rangers tie the game while on the power play in the second period.
Perreault was in the right place at the right time, and while he was crashing the net, Will Cuylle fired the puck, and it hit off the skate of the Rangers’ youngster past Blues’ goaltender Jordan Binnington.
Perreault was recalled from AHL Hartford on Thursday with Brennan Othmann. Both players saw some minutes with the big club earlier in the season.
Perreault had an assist and two shots on goal over his three games during that stint.
