New York Rangers have a future leader in Morgan Barron; goal scorer in Lauri Pajuniemi

The Flyers rookies jumped out to a 3-0 lead after one period of play, and the poor start eventually led to the Rangers falling 6-3.

Losing two forwards in Justin Richards (UBI) and Austin Rueschhoff (LBI) didn’t help, but it was bad penalties that did them in since Philly scored three power play goals.

One major bright spot was the Rangers first line of Morgan Barron, Will Cuylle, and Lauri Pajuniemi. They played with size, speed, and skill and it resulted in three goals, although one was disallowed.
