Now that he is only the second player to win the Norris Trophy in his second season – Bobby Orr was the first – Rangers defenseman Adam Fox said his focus now is on lifting the team to new heights.

"From my rookie year to this year I just tried to gain more trust,’’ Fox, a Jericho native, said on a Zoom call late Tuesday night after he became the fourth American and first Long Islander to win the award.
