Rangers defenseman Calvin de Haan voiced his dissatisfaction about being sidelined for 18 consecutive games after the team's playoff elimination. Acquired from the Colorado Avalanche, de Haan found himself unused following a trade for Carson Soucy. During a practice session, he indicated he would discuss his plight further at the team's breakup day but later chose to air his grievances on Twitter. His sentiments echoed those of another teammate, Kaapo Kakko, who had similarly expressed discontent over his limited playing time during a losing streak.
"I said what I said because I am frustrated, and any competitor who says that they would be happy in this position would be lying to you."
"After playing three games for the team and going 2-0-1, I thought I maybe would have got an opportunity to jump into the lineup and help win some games."
