• That’s on top of missing Adam Fox and Adam Edstrom, who remain on LTIR.“Sucks not having everybody.

• “But, I mean, that doesn’t affect how we play with pride.
• If there’s anything to take away from today, we didn’t play with pride.”He also said this after the Rangers remained winless in the second game of back-to-back sets.
