MONTREAL — Tanner Glass has had six months of perspective in the minors, so being grateful just for where he is and being a good teammate at this point have come naturally.
Glass still had a smile on his face at Wednesday’s practice, one day after the rugged Rangers winger was scratched in favor of talented rookie Pavel Buchnevich for the team’s 2-1 victory in Game 4 of their first-round playoff series against the Canadiens. It was the most complete performance from the Blueshirts in this best-of-seven contest, now knotted at two games apiece with Game 5 on Thursday night at the Bell Centre.
