The veteran forward was acquired by the Rangers back in February in the trade deadline deal that sent Rick Nash to Boston. Beleskey has played well so far with the Wolf Pack, recording nine points (3G, 6A) in 14 games for the Rangers’ AHL affiliate. Beleskey is known as a gritty player and is a similar player to currently injured forward Cody McLeod, though the former has a bit more skill. Had Beleskey not suffered a separated shoulder at the end of training camp, there was a chance Beleskey could’ve made the team out of camp. The hope, from both Rangers management and fans, is that Beleskey’s arrival will help snap the Rangers out of their recent funk.
Matt Beleskey is a great call up. He’s EXACTLY what the #NYR need and he will provide a spark. I bet Quinn falls in love with his game too and keeps him here, even when McLeod is healthy. #BeleskeyBomb
