NEW YORK — When Golden Knights coach Gerard Gallant shows his team highlights from Sunday’s 4-3 victory over the New York Rangers, one play is sure to be included.
Winger William Carrier capped off a 2-on-1 with Tomas Nosek in the second period, but it’s what happened in the build-up to the goal that caught Gallant’s eye.
“That’s a perfect video clip for (Monday), when a guy works that hard backchecking and he gets a puck turned over and then (Nosek) makes a real good play for him,” Gallant said. “Usually when you work that hard and you backcheck, you get rewarded and that’s what happened, so good for Will.
