Rangers Pass A Test

Three minutes and fifty seconds into last night’s matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs, Ryan Reaves took a holding penalty. It was the second penalty they’d taken, and the Rangers were already down 2-0, thanks to a converted turnover from the stick of Ryan Lindgren, and a conversion of an offensive zone penalty to Chris Kreider.
To say the Rangers were off to a poor start was clearly an understatement. The Rangers struggled to handle the speed of the Maple Leafs, with the shot clock showing an 8-0 advantage to the visitors.
