Roster Set For Opening Night
The NHL season kicks off tomorrow night, and the Rangers get under way a day later when they host the New York Islanders at MSG. With a final practice yesterday, the team made their decisions and settled on the 22 players who will be on the roster to begin the season.
Among those 22 players is 2018 1st round draft pick K’Andre Miller, who looks set to make his professional debut along side the Rangers’ highest paid defenseman: Jacob Trouba. The young defender has drawn rave reviews throughout camp, though his rise to prominence has still been a little surprising, not least of all because the coaching staff had begun the pre-season period by moving Tony DeAngelo from his natural right over to the left side.
