New York Rangers vs Columbus Blue Jackets
The opener of the Peter Laviolette era was a rousing success for the New York Rangers, who defended well and received big nights from their stars.
"I think it's fun, honestly," New York captain Jacob Trouba said of the defense."A lot of guys get excited about it. It's fun to contribute and do things like that. It takes some courage. It's not for everyone, but when you have guys that are willing to do it, it kind of goes through the team." "They put a lot into it and they worked really hard," Laviolette said of the Rangers playing a better quality of defense."We called it before the game in saying to take it for a test drive. It's one game. But there were positives to pull from that."
"It's a game where you play 1-on-1s most of the time," Vincent said."In those battles, we have to win more than just 50 percent, so I thought the 50/50 battles, we can do a better job." The Blue Jackets already are dealing with an early injury concern. Top defenseman Zach Werenski came away with a bruised quad in the second period. Werenski took a hit from Philadelphia's Garnet Hathaway and is expected to miss one to two weeks after missing the final 69 games last season due to a torn labrum in his shoulder.
