The Captain Continues To Heat Up
The Rangers captain, Jacob Trouba, has been reliable on both ends of the ice.
Hard hits, blocking shots, everything you can ask from a defenseman.
But what is incredible is the offensive output he is putting up at this point of the season, compared to last year.
Take a look.

He has two more goals, four more assists, and 6 points total, more than last season with the same amount of games played.
That, along with his incredible defensive play, showcases a remarkable difference at +/-, as he currently has a +11 for the team.
He has really stepped up his game in every aspect possible compared to last season.
He continues to be a great player, motivator, and leader, especially when the team faces several injuries that could have derailed them, but he made sure everyone stepped up when they need to, and he did too.
