When it comes to the New York Rangers‘ defense, Adam Fox and Ryan Lindgren have been the top pairing for the last few years. Fox is a dynamic offensive defenseman who also has the ability to make plays in the Rangers’ own zone as well, and Lindgren is a gritty lock-down defenseman who allows very few opposing scoring opportunities when he is on the ice.
