Following day two of the New York Rangers rookie training camp, one of the organizations newest defensive prospects has taken a jab at one of the Rangers biggest divisional rivals.
During a recent interview after day two of the New York Rangers rookie camp, defensive prospect Scott Morrow took a subtle jab at one of the organizations biggest divisional rivals, the Philadelphia Flyers.
Scott Morrow grew up in Connecticut, and was a fan of the Flyers growing up considering his father, Steve Morrow, was drafted by the them back in 1987, with the 209th overall, of the 10th round.
However, the 22-year old prospect couldn't help himself but throw a little jab at the Flyers, when he talked about joining the Rangers organization. As he stated his family will no longer be representing the Flyers.
Here's what he had to say:
New #NYR D Scott Morrow grew up in Connecticut -- as a Flyers fan.
"My dad was drafted by the Flyers, so I grew up a Flyers fan,'' he said. "I'm excited to be on the Ranger side now. I'll say that.''
Dad's OK with you being a Ranger?
"Yeah. No more Flyer shirts around the house."

Yes, it was meant in a laughing matter, but it's still a jab to the Flyers organization as their once former prospect will likely move on and became a fan of the Rangers due to his son joining the organization.
Scott Morrow Looking Forward To His Second Professional Season
Last season, Morrow played 14 games for the Carolina Hurricanes until the season came to an end, and was later dealt to the Rangers in return for the K'Andre Miller trade this offseason.
With that being said, the 22-year old couldn't be happier about joining the Rangers and begin his second year of pro hockey, whether that's in the NHL or the AHL.
