Fox gave the Rangers a 2-1 lead at 6:06 with a wrist shot above the left circle past a screen from Carrick.
Will Cuylle made it 3-1 on a power play at 9:25, a shot from Conor Sheary going in off his skate.
Fox extended the lead to 4-1 on another power play at 16:38, shooting from the point off the handle of Silovs’ stick and in off the left post for his third goal in the past two games.
“I think, sometimes, it’s just the law of averages, I think,” Fox said. “Last year, the puck luck to start wasn’t great. This year, the same shots find a way to go in.”
Matt Rempe pushed it to 5-1 at 5:40 of the third period when a shot from Edstrom went in off him in the crease.
Taylor Raddysh scored off a backhand pass from Laba, making it 6-1 at 14:12.
“I mean, sometimes you get scored on,” Silovs said. “It’s just the nature of the game. There’s always adjustments to do. And, yeah, I just think we’re going to be better next game.”
