QUOTE(S) TO NOTE:

“The Leafs are obviously highly skilled, don’t give you a lot of room, always on top of their checks. So what you do with the puck is really important. Just have to compete, win battles on the wall, all those things that allow you to have the puck, play in their end, and get scoring chances yourself. We have to respond.”

It's impossible to deny that the team lacks balls.

Adding a pilon into the lineup for 10:00 a night against maybe the fastest team in the league accomplishes what, exactly? More PIM?

 

Not only are you making one of your spots worse by adding in a terrible player, you're impacting his linemates, specifically Vesey, who has been one of the Rangers' better forwards over the last few weeks. How is he supposed to do anything playing with DD and McLeod?

Well, getting a body on the man is the most effective way to slow a player down.

 

He's not meant to be THE difference maker... I hope people understand that. He's here to bring something to the table, the team does not have. And sometimes, that helps re-energize and re-focus players.

He is not a good enough skater to get a body on anyone in a time that it makes any difference. Glass was a decent skater and he couldn't give the effort required to make any sort of impact for more than 2-3 games at a time.

 

Re-focus works for like a game or two. We saw it with Glass last year.
