Head Coach Peter Laviolette Comments On Rookie's Defensive Ability
The New York Rangers, for the most part, has played soundly defensively.
Head coach Peter Laviolette discusses about rookie Will Cuylle on his defensive performance three games in.
Cuylle on the third line is proving to more than hold his own in the first three games of the season.
There will be growing pains with the rookie, but a full year of development will be good exposure to him.
He's already scored his first goal in the second game of the year against the Columbus Blue Jackets, and leads the team in hits, which is impressive in itself.
We will see more of what he is made of tomorrow, October 19, against the Nashville Predators at Madison Square Garden.
