.... and furthermore, between periods of Monday's game between the Rangers and the Capitals, Ranger broadcaster Al Trautwig interviewed former MSU defenseman Joby Messier (now with the Rangers, currently paired with Brian Leetch). The interview focused quite a bit on Ron Mason and his "greatness" and "toughness" as a coach and how Mason's coaching had shaped Messier's playing style. Trautwig and Messier also discussed the differences between the College game and the NHL game not only in regard to quality of play but also in terms of player development.
