The New York Rangers had an impressive 50 shots on goal in their loss against the New Jersey Devils, but MacKenzie Blackwood and the defense in front of him were a brick wall.
Rangers head coach David Quinn decided to play with the lines in order to give the team a spark.
Kevin Rooney and Tony DeAngelo, both of whom had missed New York’s last two games, were back in the lineup and Julien Gauthier and Brendan Smith sat.
These were some questionable moves: Gauthier has yet to record a point but has played well to start the season and Smith has been very solid in his two games, especially compared to Jack Johnson.
