It took only one preseason game to fall in love with some of the newest New York Rangers players, particularly Mika Zibanejad and Pavel Buchnevich. Couple the two of them with Chris Kreider, and apparently good things will happen.
Since the beginning of training camp, Alain Vigneault has been talking up his newly formed Kreider-Zibanejad-Buchnevich line. Many Rangers fans have been very interested in seeing how that actually worked. If you watched the Rangers preseason opener against the New York Islanders on Tuesday, you saw it worked really well.
I know I need to temper expectations because it is only preseason, but damn, I’m in love with this line.
