This Line Is The Anchor For The Team
The Rangers' are one of the deepest teams in the league.
Boasting an array of weapons, defensive grinders, mixed in a pool of veteran, and young talent.
With the young talent, comes the second line, and what was called the kids line.
The aforementioned line was composed of these three youngsters, Filip Chytil, Alexis Lafrenière, and Kaapo Kakko.
Now all three are still on the team, however, Kakko moved up to the first line, and in his place,
Artemi Panarin was placed on the second line.
With Panarin there, it obviously cannot be referred to the kids line anymore, since he's one of the oldest players on the team at 31.
None of the other players were older than 24. Nevertheless, despite their age, the line was lethal, and even though they are not playing together on the same line anymore, the impact between the same three players is still felt on the ice.
Their record when they each record a point is mind boggling.
We also gotta single out Lafrenière, who has gotten a bit of some flack since preseason.
He has shown up and has produce at a high level. We hope to continue seeing more of this for the rest of the season.
The Rangers' will play the second of a five game road stretch Tuesday, October 24, with the Calgary Flames, at Scotiabank Saddledome, in Calgary.
