Rangers break up top line in loss to Penguins
Rick Nash - W - New York Rangers
Feb. 1, 2013 - 10:40 AM ET

Coach John Tortorella broke up the Rangers' top line of Rick Nash, Brad Richards and Marian Gaborik during Thursday's 3-0 loss.

Torts was trying to snap his team out of a funk in what he called the team's worst game of the season. It remains to be seen whether the change will be permanent, but with the Rangers struggling to find consistency, owners should expect lines to change before, during and after games. Still, all three stars are still playing major minutes and Nash in particular has been very strong despite not having the point total to prove it. Now might be the perfect time to buy low on Nash if his owner is wavering.
