Credit where credit's due...Trocheck's found a way to win a lot of key defensive/offensive zone face-offs this season. 

Big difference from past seasons. Nice to have a key faceoff guy 

[Karan]

An unbelievable run of form by Shesty. Almost back to his very best from last season.

Complaining about Trouba, Lafreniere and Trocheck during a 5-game win streak? Yeah, where they at??

Laffy needs some AHL time…I’ve said it before…but, he gets two lucky goals and the NY media calls it his coming out…too slow at the moment.  But, can’t send a #1 pick down apparently…so, the Rangers will grind the kid into the dust, trade him, and he’ll be vying for Ovechkin’s goal record some day!  LOL…

They were hanging on for dear life for large parts of the game, but a very impressive win against a top team that's been demolishing opponents for a few weeks now.

Last few minutes were uncharacteristically solid in their own zone. Great win

[NY Chief]

Someone tell the Leafs this was a playoff game?

He was big.

Five in the a row is nice, but let’s go for 6, 7, 8….

I was gonna ask if he has to be put on waivers. This guy just needs to work on his game.

They look like they're having fun again. Zibanejad doesn't look like he wants to cry at the end of games.

And Jimmy Vesey steps in to save the Rangers. and to a lesser extent Igor.

Vesey feeling good after that game against his old squad.

That probably is the other way around, Shesty stole this game…

“Jimmy got goals and I don’t care, Jimmy got goals and I don’t care, Jimmy go goals, and I don’t caaaaaare…as long as we fuckin’ win!”

[RichieNextel305]

Not perfect but we’re back on the right track. Look much more calm defensively than they did during the dog days we experienced a few weeks ago. Very solid and impressive win against a very good Leafs team.

Probably the biggest thing that sticks out about Lafreniere is a complete lack of conditioning. He’s gassed way too quick and way too often, and that’s a bad combination for a player who isn’t that fast and needs to play at top speed to be any sort of effective. But he eats too many donuts.

[RJWantsTheCup]

Who would’ve thunk Fesey would drop a deuce against the Leafs.  Big win. 

[RodrigueGabriel]

Loved that third. Solid D, although they started playing chip-it-to-center-ice too early. And ... we're back in the playoff pic, top o' the wild card to ya.

Is this the first regular season win wearing liberty jerseys?

The Debbie downers have been loving Trouba, oddly enough
