The Kids Get Tortorella's Message

Yes it is still very early in the hockey year but one thing is very clear; the New York Ranger prospects have heard what John Tortorella has been saying and responding to it.

Ryan Bourque the Ranger's 2009 3rd round pick made his debut as a member of the QMJHL's Quebec Remparts a rather impressive one as the Remparts defeated the Rimouski Oceanic 4-2 in exhibition action.

Bourque had a goal, 2 assists and earned First Star of the Game honors in his home debut as a member of the Remparts. What made Bourque's work even more impressive was that each one of his points on the night were key ones.
