Rangers draft pick Zdenek Bahensky, a 2004 selection whose NHL rights are still owned by the Blueshirts, scored his second goal in as many preseason games on Thursday in Mlada Boleslav's 4-1 loss at Plzen, which is run by former Rangers star Martin Straka. Bahensky tallied the game's first goal on a power play at 7:49 of the opening period. Bahensky's team is now 1-1 in the preseason.
