Noah Laba News: Deposits goal Saturday

Laba scored a goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.

Laba was promoted to the second line and saw 13:50 of ice time Saturday as the Rangers loaded up a top line of Artemi Panarin, J.T. Miller and Mika Zibanejad. It's unclear whether the trio will remain intact for long, but it could lead to a boost in usage for Laba for as long as it lasts. The 22-year-old rookie has scored twice over his last four games and is up to four points, 12 shots on net, 10 hits, 10 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over his first 13 NHL contests.
