Over the weekend, the New York Rangers reworked their lines in an effort to find balance as per head coach Gerard Gallant. Heading into action tonight at Madison Square Garden against the Florida Panthers, we will see if this latest look accomplishes that goal.
Aside from the fourth line, which will see the return of Julian Gauthier, the top three lines have been completely reshuffled. Artemi Panarin was moved up to play with Mika Zibanejad and Chris Kreider, who is making the switch to right wing. Vincent Trocheck will play with two straight line wingers in Barclay Goodrow and Jimmy Vesey.
