Our 2018-19 New York Rangers Report Cards continue in full swing today as we take a look at Kevin Shattenkirk’s year, which turned out to be another highly disappointing and frustrating one for the New Rochelle native.
His season
Coming off an injury ravaged debut season in the Big Apple, Shattenkirk had a chip on his shoulder and a massive point to prove in 2018-19.
Luck seemed to be on his side too having been reunited with new Rangers head coach David Quinn with the pair previously working together at Boston University.
However, the effects of the torn meniscus suffered in 2017-18 were still lingering and that, coupled with rustiness, derailed Shattenkirk in the early throes of 18-19 as he was scratched after the opening four games.
