Jimmy Vesey, Barclay Goodrow, and Tyler Motte are leading the way for the Rangers and need others to follow suit.
. “That’s what we need. It’s one line a night, or two lines a night.”
The Rangers’ top-nine has undergone several adjustments in the past two games, but Gallant has understandably left Vesey, Goodrow and Motte alone. After the fourth line had an identity crisis earlier in the season, that unit has found its game quicker than the other three lines. What’s even more impressive is those three haven’t logged that much ice time together, since Motte missed two games with an upper-body injury.In 30:07 of ice time, according to Natural Stat Trick, Vesey, Goodrow and Motte have been on the ice for one Rangers goal and one against while out-attempting opponents 19-9.
New York Rangers center Tyler Motte skates during the second period against the Winnipeg Jets at Madison Square Garden.“I thought our line overall, it was probably one of the best games we’ve had as a line/ I think just knowing our roles, keeping it simple,” Goodrow said of what’s working for his line. “Try to take the body as much as we can. Try to chip in offensively here and there. I think we have enough skill on this team.
