Fifty games into the Rangers season, Adam Edstrom has played in every single one.<\/p>\n
The 6-foot-7 rookie has emerged as a defensively reliable fourth-line winger who can lead the forechecking charge and make things happen in front of the net. <\/p>\n
Even with veteran skaters waiting in the wings, head coach Peter Laviolette has seemingly had zero thoughts about taking Edstrom out.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a testament to Edstrom\u2019s body of work in his first full NHL season, but also to the impact the lines he\u2019s skated on have had.<\/p>\n
Tuesday\u2019s matchup with the Hurricanes counted as Edstrom\u2019s eighth straight game skating with Matt Rempe and Sam Carrick, a trio that has more than pulled its weight since the Blueshirts began to right the ship on their 2023-24 season.<\/p>\n
The Rangers have found a unique dynamic with the two towering youngsters sandwiching a hard-nosed veteran.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it just brings an element,\u201d Rempe told The Post after a lightly attended optional morning skate Tuesday at Madison Square Garden. \u201cIt brings a lot of size, it\u2019s hard on defenses to play against us. I think it\u2019s exciting. We\u2019re best buddies, so we love to play with each other.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want to build something, put together a real nice body of work and become a line that\u2019s really to be reckoned with. Just keep building every game.\u201d<\/p>\n
Edstrom has lined up on the opposite wing of Rempe 14 times so far this season, after doing so in the first eight consecutive games following the latter\u2019s first NHL recall last season.<\/p>\n
With Rempe standing at 6-foot-8\u2009\u00b9\/\u2082 , Edstrom is the closest player to his size he has ever played with.<\/p>\n
The two tied the NHL record \u2014 set by Zdeno Chara and Dougie Hamilton \u2014 for the tallest duo to connect on goal in league history after Edstrom set him up in the shutout win over Ottawa last week.<\/p>\n
A league record is cool, but your two biggest physical forces chipping in with a highlight-reel goal is even cooler. <\/p>\n
The defensive side of their game, however, has been an even more valuable contribution.<\/p>\n
Edstrom, Carrick and Rempe had actually not been on for a single goal against during five-on-five play entering Tuesday\u2019s game. <\/p>\n
They\u2019ve outscored opponents 4-0, according to Natural Stat Trick, while also holding a 14-13 edge in high-danger chances through 66:19 TOI.<\/p>\n
Plus, Edstrom has collected five goals and four assists individually.<\/p>\n
Among Rangers with at least 400 minutes of ice time this season, Edstrom has been on for the second least amount of goals during five-on-five play (18), in addition to owning the lowest xGA of 19.07.<\/p>\n
Of course, these numbers are inflated by his average ice time (9:21) and defensive assignments, but encouraging nonetheless.<\/p>\n
The setup is pretty ideal for Rempe and Edstrom, who have leaned on each other since breaking into the NHL last season.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s a couple years older, but we were drafted [a year apart from each other], we kind of came up together,\u201d said Rempe, who bounced in and out of the lineup and up and down from AHL Hartford through the first couple months. \u201cLast year, my first call up we played together the first games and it was great. I think we\u2019ve grown really close the last two years. It\u2019s cool to kind of have all the highs and lows we experience together. It\u2019s fun, it\u2019s really fun, to have a camaraderie and a brothership.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
