CHICAGO -- Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville apparently saw enough. With Chicago in the midst of a three-game losing streak, he commanded a longer-than-usual practice on Tuesday and cursed at his players afterward because he thought their effort was lacking.

The Blackhawks will try to bounce back Wednesday when they face off against the Philadelphia Flyers at the United Center.

Chicago (5-5-2) started the season on a high note but has been outscored 12-6 during the past week while dropping games against the Vegas Golden Knights, Nashville Predators and Colorado Avalanche. The Blackhawks are 1-5-0 in their past six contests.

"I didn't like the last part of our practice," Quenneville said to the Chicago Sun-Times on Tuesday. "The intensity and the pace went down to a tough-to-watch (level). It was just, let's go."

Philadelphia (6-5-1) also is searching for more consistency after an up-and-down start to the season. The Flyers are coming off a 4-3 overtime loss to the previously winless Arizona Coyotes, and they are 1-2-1 in their past four.

Injuries to defensemen Shayne Gostisbehere and Andrew MacDonald have placed the Flyers in a difficult spot. Four of the team's seven active blue-liners are rookies.

"I've played with a few of them as a partner (in the AHL), so the familiarity certainly makes it easier," said defenseman Will O'Neill, who joined the team on Tuesday.

Philadelphia has been forced to turn to its depth on offense, as well. Rookie forward Nolan Patrick has a head injury, and he did not make the road trip.

Chicago likely will turn to goaltender Corey Crawford for his 11th start of the season. The 32-year-old is 5-4-0 with a 2.12 goals-against average and a .935 save percentage in his first 10 contests.

The Flyers have had Crawford's number. In four career games against Philadelphia, Crawford is 1-3-0 with a 3.51 GAA and an uncharacteristically low .855 save percentage.

Veteran goaltender Brian Elliott is expected to start for Philadelphia. Also 32 years old, Elliott has posted a 5-2-1 record with a 3.23 GAA and a .884 save percentage in his first season with the Flyers.

Elliott is familiar with the Blackhawks from his tenure with the St. Louis Blues. In 18 career games against Chicago, he is 7-8-1 with a 2.50 GAA and a .910 save percentage.

Patrick Kane leads Chicago with 13 career points (four goals, nine assists) in 11 games against Philadelphia. Artem Anisimov scored two goals in two games against the Flyers last season.

One of the Flyers' hottest players is Sean Couturier, who scored two goals in the most recent game against the Coyotes. He leads the team with nine goals this season and is on pace to top his season high of 15, which he set during the 2014-15 campaign with Philadelphia.

Blackhawks players hope to post a win against the Flyers -- and put punishing practices behind them.

"Those are never fun," Chicago defenseman Cody Franson said to the Sun-Times. "But you know what, it's great. Losing is not acceptable here.

"It's amazing to me how calm and level-headed our room has stayed through adversity like this. This is kind of the first time I've experienced something like that. Usually, there's a ton of panic."

The New York Rangers honored the victims of Tuesday's terror attack with a moment of silence prior to puck drop against the Vegas Golden Knights.

"We stand united in the face of those who threaten our freedom in New York, Las Vegas, and throughout the world," said the in-arena announcer.

The moment of silence was in response to an act of terror that occurred Tuesday in Lower Manhattan when a suspect drove a vehicle along a bike path and killed eight people.

Earlier this season, the Golden Knights held a pregame ceremony honoring the 59 people killed in the tragic shooting in Vegas on Oct. 1.

NEW YORK (AP) Mika Zibanejad got the tiebreaking goal with 5:39 left and the New York Rangers scored four in the third period to rally for a 6-4 win over the expansion Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night.

Jimmy Vesey, Mats Zuccarello, Chris Kreider, Pavel Buchnevich and Michael Graber scored for the Rangers, and Henrik Lundqvist made 30 saves. Zibanejad also had assists on the first two goals in the third, helping the Rangers win for the third time in seven games (3-2-2).

Reilly Smith scored twice, Oscar Lindberg got a goal against his former team and David Perron converted a penalty shot for Vegas, which has lost consecutive games after winning five straight. Maxime Lagace, the fourth goalie used by the Golden Knights this season, stopped 32 shots in his first NHL start.

Kreider pulled the Rangers to 4-3 with a power-play goal as he took a pass from Zibanejad and beat Lagace from the left side for his third at 5:31 of the third.

Buchnevich tied it nearly four minutes later, taking a pass from Zibanejad on the left side and putting it into the open net with Lagace out of position after moving forward in the crease. It gave Buchnevich a goal for the third straight game.

Grabner added an empty-netter with 1:14 left to seal it.

Trailing 2-1 after a lackluster first period, the Rangers came out aggressively to start the second and tied the score at 1:29. Kevin Hayes' shot from the left side behind the net went off Rick Nash's skate to Zuccarello, who put it in for his third.

The Golden Knights went back ahead 3-2 at 7:06 as Smith scored on a backhand from the right side for his fourth of the season and second of the game.

Lundqvist made a pair of sprawling saves on his back with about a minute left in the second, but Perron was hooked by Hayes and awarded a penalty shot. Perron deked and scored five-hole on Lundqvist for his fourth to put Vegas up by two.

Vesey put the Rangers up 1-0 just 2:45 into the game as he got a pass from David Desharnais from the left side behind the net and fired it past Lagace. It came on the Rangers' first shot on goal.

The Golden Knights tied it as Lindberg scored at 5:22, backhanding the rebound of a shot by Alex Tuch past a sprawled Lundqvist for his fifth.

Vegas took a 2-1 lead with 39 seconds left in the first when Colin Miller's point shot was deflected in front by Jonathan Marchessault and put in by Smith.

NOTES: Rangers D Brady Skjei played in his 100th regular-season game. ... Zibanejad topped 200 career points and has at least one in four straight games (three goals, four assists). ... The Rangers have won six straight first meetings against expansion teams since losing the initial matchup at home to Anaheim on Oct. 19, 1993. ... Lundqvist earned his 408th win, moving past Glenn Hall for sole possession of ninth place on the NHL's career list. ... The teams conclude their season series Jan. 7 at Las Vegas. ... The Golden Knights, who have been active in trying to help the Las Vegas community heal from the mass shooting at the beginning of the month, were staying at a hotel in Battery Park in lower Manhattan near a terrorist attack earlier in the day. Just blocks away, a 29-year-old man from Uzbekistan drove a rented truck onto a bike path, killing at least eight people and seriously injuring 11 others. The team was delayed a little in leaving the area for Madison Square Garden, but arrived about 75 minutes before the start. ... Vegas placed G Oscar Dansk on injured reserve with a lower-body injury. G Dylan Ferguson was recalled from Kamloops of the Western Hockey League on an emergency basis to serve as Lagace's backup. Top goalie Marc-Andre Fleury (concussion) has not been cleared to resume skating, and backup Malcolm Subban (lower-body injury) is also out.

It appears Vadim Shipachyov will need to pay the piper to get out of Sin City.

The Vegas Golden Knights forward, who was suspended by the club Sunday after failing to report to the AHL, is reportedly aiming to return to the KHL, where he had played since 2008.

In order to do so, he'll first need to repay the $2-million signing bonus that was part of his two-year, $9-million contract with the Golden Knights, reports Sportsnet's Eric Engels.

Once it's repaid, Vegas can place him on unconditional waivers in order to terminate his contract.

In three games with the Golden Knights, Shipachyov registered one goal, two penalty minutes, and a plus-three rating.

The Vegas Golden Knights are in a pinch.

After losing goaltenders Marc-Andre Fleury and Malcolm Subban to injury, the team was dealt another bad hand when recent call-up Oscar Dansk left Monday's contest with an undisclosed ailment.

That means Maxime Lagace, who spent last season with the Dallas Stars' farm club, and Dylan Ferguson are the Golden Knights' go-to goalies. Ferguson, 19, was drafted last summer and is on emergency recall from the WHL's Kamloops Blazers.

With the team's goaltending depth pushed to its limit, here are five trade options worthy of GM George McPhee's consideration:

Curtis McElhinney

The Golden Knights and Maple Leafs linked up once already in the deal that sent netminder Calvin Pickard to Toronto, and the teams could be prime partners only a few weeks later.

It's no secret the Maple Leafs want Pickard with the big club, but he's slotted with the AHL's Marlies until they can clear a roster spot. That means finding a new home for McElhinney. The 34-year-old has appeared in just one game this season, allowing three goals but coming away with the win.

Louis Domingue

Domingue cleared waivers Monday, and while there were no takers for the Arizona Coyotes netminder, a deal could come to fruition if the team takes back a contract for the struggling goaltender.

Interestingly enough, Golden Knights blue-liner Griffin Reinhart passed through waivers the same day as Domingue, and could be the right match in a trade. Carrying an $800,000 cap hit, he's signed to a more affordable deal than Domingue, although he carries an additional year. Domingue, 25, was waived after going winless in seven games - a stretch which saw him post a dreadful .856 save percentage.

Michael Hutchinson

Like Domingue, Hutchinson cleared waivers earlier this season. The move was the result of the Winnipeg Jets bringing in Steve Mason to pair with Connor Hellebuyck, and Hutchinson's poor performance last year.

Hutchinson has appeared in four games with the AHL's Manitoba Moose, and has come up with two wins and a respectable .918 save rate. The 27-year-old is also on an expiring contract that carries a reasonable $1.15-million cap hit.

Andrew Hammond

Could Sin City be the place where Hammond rediscovers his magic? The 29-year-old was a revelation three seasons ago with the Senators, as he put together an outstanding 20-1-2 record and allowed just 42 goals to drag Ottawa into the playoffs.

But the good times didn't last, as Hammond now suits up for the Senators' AHL club. At a manageable $1.35-million ticket, he could be a worthwhile gamble for the Golden Knights.

Reto Berra

Berra, 30, spent last season with the Florida Panthers' organization, but was prepared to return to Switzerland before the Anaheim Ducks came calling.

With Ryan Miller on the shelf, a backup spot opened in Anaheim, and Berra appeared in two games. But with Miller now healthy, and the AHL's San Diego Gulls seemingly set with Leland Irving and Kevin Boyle, the Ducks could make Berra available.

Honorable mentions

Jeff Zatkoff

Called upon last season to fill in for an injured Jonathan Quick - and later losing the gig to Peter Budaj - the Los Angeles Kings' Zatkoff could be an option. The 30-year-old has yet to play this season and appears to be an extra body behind Jack Campbell and Cal Petersen with the AHL's Ontario Reign.

Anders Lindback

Lindback signed with the Nashville Predators - the team that drafted him in 2008 - this offseason after splitting last year between the AHL and Sweden. As the third goalie on Nashville's depth chart, he has posted a 5-1-0 record and .909 save percentage in the AHL. The veteran could come at an affordable price.

The Anaheim Ducks will be without their captain for at least the next three games.

Ryan Getzlaf was placed on injured reserve due to swelling from a facial injury suffered Oct. 29 and will be re-evaluated on Nov. 6, the team announced.

Getzlaf was injured upon taking a puck to the face early in a game against Carolina.

Getzlaf has been limited to six games this season after previously missing time with a lower-body injury, but has recorded one goals, six assists, and 10 shots.

If cleared, he could be back for a home game against Los Angeles on Nov. 7.

The goalie carousel continues to spin in Vegas, as the Golden Knights placed netminder Oscar Dansk on injured reserve and recalled Dylan Ferguson from Kamloops of the Western Hockey League on an emergency basis, the team announced.

Dansk had been filling in for injured No. 1 Marc-Andre Fleury and his replacement, Malcolm Subban - who are both already out with injuries - until he himself left Monday's contest against the New York Islanders with an injury and did not return.

Fourth-string goalie Maxime Legace was thrust into action in relief of Dansk, but allowed four goals on only 11 shots.

Ferguson will be available for the Knights' matchup against the New York Rangers on Tuesday night, but there has been no indication from the club on which goalie will be manning the crease when the puck drops at 7 p.m. ET.

Across 13 games for the Blazers of the WHL this season, Ferguson has registered a 4-9-0 record to go along with 4.05 GAA and .878 save percentage.
