Kreider Leads Rangers Past His Old Tormenter

Chris Kreider scored his first career hat trick and literally put an end to any debate about how Tortorella wasted an asset last year.    Kreids now has 6 goals and is second on the team.   What was really interesting was AV juggled lines and put Nash with Kreider and Stepan and they produced!   Nash had a goal and two assists and I think Stepan had one or two assists.   Del Zotto also scored on a  power play slap shot after some pretty passing from Brassard and MZA: perhaps those two should be kept together.   Cam Talbot was once again, calm, cool and competitive as the Rangers won 5-2 and further vanquished the already vanquished.   Huge statement game from Kreider and Talbot.   Big goal for Del Zotto.    LGR!
