Rangers' Yandle finally coming into his own with new club

It looks as though Keith Yandle is finally adjusting to the stage on Broadway.

The New York Rangers defenseman was acquired by the team ahead of the trade deadline from the Arizona Coyotes, and the defender feels he is finally hitting his stride with the team.

"I think in this series I've felt probably at my best and most comfortable, and I kind of feel like it's coming together," Yandle told reporters Saturday. "It's just, you know, the way guys play and finding your role. It was something that you knew was going to take some time, and I feel good right now."

Yandle has been hot, putting up five points in the team's last two games. Head coach Alain Vigneault has also been impressed with his play this series and believes it's the best he's looked since joining the club.

"It's the best I've seen him play so far with the puck: How to beat the forecheck, when to jump up in the attack,'' Vigneault said. "It takes players a little adjustment time."

Yandle had two goals and 11 points in 21 games with the Rangers during the regular season, but has nearly matched that in the playoffs recording a goal and nine points in 16 games.
