Adam Fox, currently leading the Rangers in ice time this year, broke onto the scene in a big way for the Rangers last year. In his two seasons in the league, Fox has shown that he can play in a shut down defensive role while also contributing offensively. During his 70 appearances last season, Fox totaled eight goals and 34 assists for 42 points. In addition, he played on the second powerplay unit. Thirteen of his 42 points came in extra man ice time.
And since the start of the 2020-21 season, David Quinn has only leaned more heavily on Fox.
