Since then, he’s only been on ice for one goal against in 93:55 total time on ice, during which the Rangers have outscored opponents, 4-1, and out-chanced them, 40-28, according to Natural Stat Trick.

Love this kid. He’s sat back and waited his turn without ever bitching or complaining or demanding a trade, and he plays hard whenever he gets an opportunity… I really hope he gets a chance to cement a full time role in the lineup come next season.
“Thriving.”
Cmon guys
If doesn’t ever get a chance to become a permanent starter he should definitely be playing 2nd d
