Limited Options Bring Interesting Response
After the trade of Vladislav Namestnikov to the Senators, the Rangers have just 21 players on their roster, further constraining what were already limited options for head coach David Quinn. In all, the Rangers have used only 21 players through the first three games, including the aforementioned Namestnikov.
The only player on the roster who hasn’t played, is Micheal Haley. A depth forward who can play some occasional 4th line minutes in certain circumstances, but not really a guy you’d consider running for more than say 5-7 minutes a game.
