Callahan Quote: “Everyone Is Contributing Right Through the Lineup”

You can’t count on 2 or 3 guys, or even one line, to carry you every night and have success. You’re too easy to shut down. But here everyone is contributing right through the lineup. Guys are stepping in from Hartford and getting points, scoring goals. That’s what you need to have success in this league, contributions throughout the lineup, and it breeds confidence. If you’re down a goal or need a goal you know anyone is capable of doing it. It feels good on the bench (knowing that).

-Ryan Callahan on the play of the Rangers

… I love what this team is doing and how John Tortorella has balanced these lines. He moved them around, all while the fans called for his head, to finally find the lines the click. Also, the call-ups of Carl Hagelin and John Mitchell have been HUGE over the last 4 games.
