Ryan Lindgren is ready to bring the battle level David Quinn has been asking to see for weeks now. The 21 year old left handed defenseman is very likely to make his season debut tonight. The Rangers will likely be scratching a left defenseman, but the question is which one.
Marc Staal
If you ask most Rangers fans, this would be the one they would like to see scratched. Marc Staal has regressed mightily over the years and is the team’s worst defenseman for giving up shots to the opposition. He ranks third on the team in minutes to Jacob Trouba and Brady Skjei, which means he’s not facing the other teams top lines but still unable to suppress the opposition.
