Yandle Stuff

A couple of interesting points about Yandle.  First, we've talked about making stretch passes and chipping pucks to the fast guys a bit over the past few years - even when Torts was here and Hags and Kreider showed up.  Yandle can really make those passes, so, it should be fun to get him out there with the fast guys.

What's more - and this is and admittedly small sample size - but last year was the first time I've ever seen the Rangers make it to the finals without a bread n butter offensive defenseman.  First there was Park, then there were Greschner and McEwen, then they had Leetch and Zubov (and won) and then they had last year, when McD's game was developing and he had a hell of a run, but wasn't that same kind of offensive defenseman the others were -- and Yandle is again.  Now, I don't think he's going to be Leetch or Park, but I think he is going to be able to bring the puck up and make plays.

Also, he'll be wearing #93.
