So basically, the Stepan line which dominated the Kings with Nash are now second liners because Nash pretty much hasn't played the past 2 games? Shut up. Stepan started slow last year and then basically outscored every center in the league other than 3-4.
I am with dump 100% on Stepan. He started very slowly last season, and then took off. On top of that he had no camp again this season. So he needs some time to get his legs under him. I just hope they at least put a solid effort on the ice tomorrow night in St. Louis.
I'll concede that losing Nash is a big hit for this team. But in all honesty, the way the Rangers have played thru the first 4 games and even more so the last two games, do they really look any better that a team of 3rd line players in any way? Would you be surprised if you saw more of the same on Saturday against St. Louis?
