Hands out assist in loss Mancini notched an assist, two hits and two PIM in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Capitals. Impact Mancini was a healthy scratch Saturday versus the Ducks, but he drew back into the lineup over Zac Jones for Tuesday's game. The 22-year-old Mancini has collected four points, 12 shots on net, six hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through his first eight NHL appearances. He may not play on an every-game basis, but he's proven himself capable of handling a third-pairing role, and he should still get decent playing time since the Rangers are only carrying three right-shot defensemen on the roster.
