Jack Roslovic ‘a little more motivated’ after Rangers wake-up call
NY Post
Jack Roslovic is very likely auditioning for his spot in the Rangers’ lineup.
Yes, head coach Peter Laviolette has continually rotated his lineup as the now fully healthy Rangers gear up for the playoffs, but it’s hard not to view his decision to make Roslovic a healthy scratch during the team’s 5-2 win over the Canadiens on Sunday night as a benching.
Roslovic, in the team’s 4-3 win over the Red Wings in the game prior, got only 8:07 on the ice, by far his lowest playing time since the Rangers acquired him from the Blue Jackets for a conditional fourth-round pick ahead of the deadline.
It also marked the least playing time he’s received all season, with either team.
The 14 shifts Roslovic played against the Red Wings were his fewest with the Rangers, as well.
Even if Laviolette won’t say that it was his intended message, consider it a wake-up call for Roslovic.
