New York Rangers: Artemi Panarin will carry team on his shoulders

The New York Rangers signed Artemi Panarin last summer for his scoring skill and playmaking ability. When the NHL resumes games sometime in July, the organization is hoping he can do one more thing, carry the Blueshirts deep into the playoffs.

Panarin had an incredible first seaosn in New York. He led the team with 95 points finding the back of the net 32 times in 69 games. The 28-year-old has done everything the organization has asked as he had the best season in his five years in the NHL recording career-high in both goals and points.
