As the NY Rangers continue their search for a 2C, some drama broke up in Montreal. Phillip Danault, Montreal’s 2C and sometimes 1C, depending on the day, is upset with his role following Montreal’s quick exit from the playoffs. If this is true, Danault could be a great add to strengthen the Rangers down the middle.
Danault: "J'ai vu mon rôle changer en playoffs mais avec ce que j'ai prouvé, mon rôle ne devrait pas changer à Montréal."
Danault put up 13-34-47 this past season, and has been a consistent 40-50 point center for four seasons.
