NEW YORK, March 22 (UPI) -- Brandon Dubinsky scored a third-period goal and Henrik Lundqvist logged a shutout Tuesday in the New York Rangers' 1-0 win over Florida.

Dubinsky found an opening in front of the Panthers' net and poked the rebound of a Ryan Callahan shot past Tomas Vokoun 7:49 into the final frame, handing the Rangers their season-best fifth straight win.

Lundqvist turned aside all 22 shots he saw, racking up his league-leading 10th whitewash of the season, as New York further solidified its hold on an Eastern Conference playoff berth.

Vokoun absorbed the hard-luck loss, stopping 32-of-33 shots, as Florida lost for the fifth time in six road games.
