Équipe: 2017-18 Rangers de New York

Date de création initiale: 1 août 2017

Publié: 1 août 2017

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

LET ME EXPLAIN!

1st Line: Kreider - Zibanejad - Buch

* This was a very solid line for the Rangers last year(until Buch got hurt).
* Keep them together and make it is a fast, solid offensive line.

2nd Line: Zucc - Andersson - Nash

* Ideal because Andersson playing with veterans will only improve his game.
* Andersson moves the puck well, he is fast, physical, a leader and a solid 2 way center. More info/scouting report about Andersson at WJSS at: https://www.nhl.com/rangers/news/rangers-prospect-update-gettinger-andersson-day-wjss/c-290545786

3rd Line: Vesey - Hayes - Miller

* You might be asking why this isn't the second line?
- Having this line as the third line only increases the chance of production down the depth chart.
* Hayes and Miller play so well together and with the addition of Vesey last year this line is the ideal line to play good minutes, but keeping them as a third line makes them have better opportunities to get production in the offensive zone. This will allow them to get good chances.

*** If need be, switch the 2nd and third lines.

4th Line: Fast - Desharnais - Grabner

* Great depth line that will be very solid shut down defensively, Fast and Grabner can also produce so maybe we see good production from Desharnais as well.

Extra: Puempel is a good 13th man, doesn't do a lot IMO but he can play a solid(quiet) game.

Defense is self explanatory... Holden and DeAngelo can rotate in and out.
Goalie.. that's obvious.
