Head Coach For Rangers Speaks Out On Yesterday's Loss
The New York Rangers are feeling the brunt of noise of Yesterday's 5-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Head coach, Peter Laviolette, is feeling it too, and also voicing his thoughts on last night's game.
It was a funny game, a tough game. There wasn't a volume of defensive things but there were some issues that could have been better. We have to do a better job of tying up sticks and blocking shots from those areas.
Clearly the last minute scratch of defensemen, Ryan Lindgren, hurt in their quest to win the second game of their season.
He was sidelined with an unidentified upper-body injury even though he practiced on Friday and took part in the morning skate Saturday. Other Rangers' also voice their opinions on last nights game.
With Lindgren out, Zac Jones entered the lineup and was paired with Braden Schnieder while Erik Gustafsson moved up with Adam Fox.
Hopefully the Rangers will make the necessary adjustments when they play in front of their home crowd at Madison Square Garden, tomorrow, October 16, against the Arizona Coyotes.
