Adam Fox ready to take ‘bragging rights’ against Ryan Lindgren in Seattle reunion
NY Post
SEATTLE — Saturday night will mark just the third time Adam Fox and Ryan Lindgren square off against one another as opponents.
The longtime friends, who met when they were teenagers in the U.S. National Team Development Program, have not lined up on opposite sides of the ice since they were in college during the 2017-18 season.
Lindgren and the University of Minnesota defeated Fox and Harvard in a back-to-back slate in November. The Gophers first took a 4-2 victory before emerging with a 2-1 win in overtime the following game.
After reuniting and playing parts of six seasons together in New York, this will be the first time the two duke it out as NHLers since the Rangers traded Lindgren to Colorado in March.
“It’ll be funny,” Fox told The Post on Friday after practice at Climate Pledge Arena. “I obviously played with him at NTDP and then played him once in college, and that was fun. It’s more a little bit of bragging rights and stuff. It’s been a while since I played against him. But, you know, he’s great. We’ll see him [Friday night], hang out with him. I mean, there will be — knowing Lin — no friendships on the ice [Saturday night]. It’ll be fun.
“I think we’re all happy for him, we miss him. But, obviously, we’re more focused on the game, but it’ll be fun to play against him.”

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s days in Milwaukee may be numbered.
Brian Daboll tried in his own way to get Abdul Carter on the right path.
Elden Campbell, a 15-year NBA veteran who spent the majority of his career playing with his hometown Los Angeles Lakers, has died, according to the Los Angeles Times. He was 57.
Shedeur Sanders has another potential challenger with the Browns.
The offseason signing of Vladislav Gavrikov became exponentially more important for the Rangers when Adam Fox was ruled out for the foreseeable future.
Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
After leaving practice early on Monday to be evaluated for a lower-body injury, Adam Edstrom did not suit up Tuesday night against the Stars.
