Emerson Etem continues to be used as a punching bag, and eventually it's going to hurt the Rangers.
This has gone on long enough.
That the Rangers seem more than willing to allow a 23-year-old player (which they traded away a key player to acquire) to rot in the press box rather than to see what they have is insanity. We've talked about it. We've talked about it again. And now here we are, talking about it again. Again.
Emerson Etem needs to play hockey games. When Derek Stepan went down with a broken rib injury it was a perfect opportunity to get Etem quality playing time.
