Preseason Game 5: Rangers vs Devils


The Rangers take the ice for the fifth time this preseason as the Devils cross the Hudson. The Blueshirts started the week with a roster almost double the size of what they have now, with 20 players cut from camp in the last three days. The remaining guys are all vying for roster spots, with Gabe Perreault, Noah Laba, Brett Berard (not playing tonight), and Scott Morrow (not playing tonight) all still in camp and seemingly forcing the coaching staff to make tough decisions.

Also still in camp is Conor Sheary, who has been pretty solid in camp thus far. He will play on a line with Juuso Parssinen and Taylor Raddysh as a potential shutdown line, but that to me is also a stopgap line until the kids are ready. It’s also a vegetable line with parsnip and radish, though I’m unsure what Sheary would be (shears? celery?).
