Ranger Line Combos


After shuffling his lines non-stop for his first three games as head coach of the Rangers, John Tortorella had his work cut out for him  after yesterday.  Two forwards are gone and two new ones are in.  Here's how the Ranger forwards started the game tonight.

Antropov-Drury-Dubinsky
Naslund-Gomez-Zherdev
Callahan-Korpikoski-Avery
Sjostrom-Betts-Orr

Let's hope Torts give them a chance to get adjusted to each other because this team needs offense more than anything else.  So far so good, Zherdev has given them the early lead.  Newcomer Nik Antropov has already had a couple quality shots, and Sean Avery, while quiet so far, has been hearing it from the fans of both sides (many of the seats have been taken up by local Ranger supporters).  

The game has had a terrific pace so far...
