"After losing in OT the night before, the NY Rangers prospects responded with a dominant 5-2 win over the Flyers prospects. Brennan Othmann had a fantastic outing with 3 assists, Gabe Perreault had a key primary power play assist and the empty netter to put the game away, Scott Morrow had 2 assists, and Callum Tung stopped 21 of 23 shots for the win. The big guns showed up and solidified their spots as the top guys in the rookie series."
"Morrow in particular had a great redemption game and looked very calm with the puck on his stick. There very well could be a give and take with a player like Morrow. As he develops in the Rangers system, he could be a guy who is capable of scoring a lot of points, but then also find himself on the ice when goals are scored against."
"Morrow was on the top pairing for both games, lining up for 20+ minutes of ice time. That obviously won't be the case if he makes the Rangers, so the organization will be able to shelter him a bit as he rounds out his game. The big decision for the Rangers will be figuring out if it's more beneficial for him to play third pair minutes with the Rangers or top-two minutes with the Hartford Wolf Pack."
The NY Rangers prospects rebounded from an OT loss to beat the Flyers prospects 5-2. Brennan Othmann recorded three assists and finished the rookie series with a 1-4-5 line over two games. Gabe Perreault provided a primary power play assist and an empty-net goal to seal the result. Scott Morrow had two assists, logged top-pairing minutes, and showed calm puck handling. Callum Tung stopped 21 of 23 shots to earn the win. Rangers face a decision about Morrow's development path between sheltered NHL minutes or larger roles in Hartford.
