Rangers news: A few notes from the Rangers on today's Traverse City game

Dale Weise, the prospects team captain, scored the fourth Rangers goal Monday.

Dale Weise, the prospects team captain, scored the fourth Rangers goal Monday.

I just got the press release from the team on today's game, most of which Joe covered, but here are a few quick notes:

Director of Player Personnel, Gordie Clark, on Chad Johnson:


"He was the Player of the Year in the CCHA (Central Collegiate Hockey Association) last year,
and he showed why. He was absolutely outstanding in goal, and is a big reason why we were
able to go a perfect six-for-six in shorthanded situations."


On Sam Klassen and Tomas Kundratek:


"Two of our goals came from a defenseman - Klassen and Kundratek - and both were solid in
the game on both sides of the puck. Klassenʼs goal came at a key moment in the game for us,
tying the score at one goal apiece, and Kundratekʼs goal was a canon of a shot, one-timed from
the point."


On Dale Weise:


"Dale (Weise) played a solid game, constantly moving his skates and using the body well. He
was rewarded for it by going to the front of the net and tipping in (Daniel) Maggioʼs waist-high
shot."


On Evgeny Grachev:


"Once again, he dominated the game with his size and strength, and was rewarded with a well deserved
goal that demonstrated these attributes."

 

The New York Rangers prospects return to action on Wednesday, September 9, when they will face-off against the Detroit Red Wings prospects in their final of three First Round contests. The game will begin at 7:00 p.m. on Centre ICE 1 in Traverse City, Michigan.

HF also has a completely different take on things in their “Tournament Recaps”.
Day 1: http://www.hockeysfuture.com/articles/11389/2009_traverse_city_prospects_tournament_recap_day1/

Day 2: http://www.hockeysfuture.com/articles/11390/2009_traverse_city_rookie_tournament_recap_day2/

Note that while Rangers brass are touting Grachev (‘dominant’ blah blah), Leslie Treff’s take is significantly more subdued.
