After playing on the right side for the first time in his career last season, York has a shot at being the top left-handed defenseman for a team focused on developing its young talent.
, and Justin Braun signed to play in Germany — all moves that leave an opportunity for York on the blue line.
“Obviously [Provorov and DeAngelo] leaving, they played big minutes for us. Provy was all situations; Tony was power plays,” York said Friday. “So there’s a lot of roles that are unfilled right now.

So definitely just more familiar and comfortable with the left side, but with injuries and stuff, you just you never know what the case may be. So I’m prepared for both.”John Tortorella“We’re going to have some horror shows some nights with our young back end,” Tortorella said at the beginning of training camp.
