Head coach Peter Laviolette said that scratching the veteran was not an easy decision to make.
BUFFALO — A few years ago, Jimmy Vesey may have let his season-opening scratch ruin the rest of his month.
Just because Vesey will spend the Blueshirts’ first game of the season — against the Sabres on Thursday night — in street clothes watching from the press box, doesn’t mean that his role is any less important than the ones of the players who will be regulars in the lineup.“We’re all here because we want to win the Stanley Cup and to do that it takes a lot of guys,” Vesey told The Post after the Rangers’ morning skate, during which the 30-year-old stayed out on the ice for extra work.
Cuylle seized his opportunities and quickly snagged a spot in the Rangers’ top nine, where he will play Thursday night alongside Vincent Trocheck and Blake Wheeler on the third unit. Goodrow can play center, but Bonino is a career middleman. Pitlick, on the other hand, is an offseason signing whom the Rangers probably wanted to see first in orderGetty Images
