Christensen on Power Play?!?!?!? (Updated)

Update, 2:25 p.m.:
Torts says the best thing to do is to keep Dubinsky-Anisimov-Callahan line together, then find another top line LW for Richards and Gaborik.

Update, 1:53 p.m.:
Wolski’s groin is status quo, while Sauer’s right shoulder is “nagging” but improving.

Update, 1:50 p.m.:
Callahan left practice after power play work to get some maintenance for bumps and bruises. Will practice on Friday. Rangers have off tomorrow.

Update, 1:33 p.m.:
Del Zotto has taken newest Ranger Woywitka under his wing by transporting and showing him around New York City.

…let’s just hope MDZ doesn’t give him defensive pointers. Zing!!!

Update, 1:31 p.m.:
Brandon Prust says his shoulder is at 100%.

Update, 1:25 p.m.:
Stepan on playing with Richards and Gabby…

“Up to me to see the game the way they do. if it’s meant to be, it’ll work.”

Stepan is not sure if he will stay on the top line Saturday vs. Islanders.

Richards joked that he”s been asking for Stepan on his line.

Update, 12:08 p.m.:
Lines at practice:

…got to be honest, if Wolski is going to be out I actually like these lines.

Update, 12:03 p.m.:
Derek Stepan is skating with Brad Richards and Marian Gaborik.

…didn’t Torts just say the other day he was keeping the top line intact?

Once again Michael Sauer (shoulder) and Wojtek Wolski (groin) are not skating.

Update, 11:50 a.m.:
Gross adds that Dan Girardi, Michael Del Zotto and Tim Erixon are also being working into the power play units.

Original Post:
Andrew Gross reports that the Rangers are working on their power play to begin today’s practice with the two following units…

Stepan, Boyle, Gaborik, Richards and Fedotenko

Christensen, Dubinski, Zuccarello, Callahan and Anisimov

…love seeing the Rangers working on the power play, but I’m not so sure Christensen is the answer to all that is wrong with the extra man attack.
