Earlier this season Peter Laviolette made the decision to switch up the New York Rangers lines as it was clear that they were not working well together.
But now, the Rangers are having difficulties once again as they have been if taking tough losses, such as losing 6-1 to the Buffalo Sabres and 6-3 to the Winnipeg Jets. Leaving Peter Laviolette no choice but to make more changes.
As the New York Rangers hit the ice this morning for their practice, Rangers reporter Vince Z. Mercogliano shared on his X account, that based off the jersey colors Peter Laviolette has returned the line back to how they were at the beginning of the season.
Based on beginning of practice and jersey colors, looks like NYR� is going back to a lineup that resembles the start of the season:
Panarin - Trocheck - Laf
Kreider - Zib - Smith
Cuylle - Chytil - Kakko
Edström - Carrick - Vesey
Miller - Fox
Lindgren - Trouba
Jones - Schneider
Along with that Peter Laviolette also stated that the Jones-Schneider defensive pair and the Cuylle-Chytil-Kakko line have warranted more minutes going forward, which could mean that they could eventually being the second line.
Peter Laviolette said he feels both the Jones-Schneider pair and the Cuylle-Chytil-Kakko line have warranted more minutes going forward.
