Much has been made of the Rangers’ top six in recent weeks, but it will be the Kid Line that sets the club a part down the line.
Alexis Lafreniere, Filip Chytil and Kaapo Kakko showed what they’re capable of Saturday night in the Rangers’ 4-3 win over the Panthers at FLA Live Arena.
Head coach Gerard Gallant seemingly recognized early on in the second that the trio of youngsters were feeling it, and he awarded them the necessary ice time to capitalize on their play. After Patrick Kane scored a fluky goal just over a minute into the third period to give the Rangers their first lead of the night, Chytil took a pass off the boards from Kakko that the Panthers’ Aaron Ekblad fumbled. Chytil then buried it stick side on Bobrovsky to push the Rangers ahead 4-2 at 6:18 of the third.NHLI via Getty Images
If Lafreniere, Chytil and Kakko are able to get back to their earlier ways as the Rangers inch closer to the playoffs, the hope is that they’ll be able to carry it over into the big games that lay ahead.
