In the 6-3 loss to the Pens, Rick Nash scored his first goal as a Ranger. It came shorthanded when Derek Stepan intercepted a Evgeni Malkin pass at center ice and flipped a pass for Nash, who did the rest. He used a great power move to shield the puck and deke Tomas Vokoun.

Nash has easily been our best player. He’s shown why the Blueshirts acquired him, displaying great offensive skills that should boost our team’s offense. It’s up to the rest of his teammates to follow his example.
