Jimmy Vesey is more than just a gifted scorer.

The New York Rangers rookie proved that point early in Friday's game against the Philadelphia Flyers, threading a sublime backhand feed to Matt Puempel, who buried it for his first goal with New York in his Rangers debut.

Puempel was claimed by New York on Monday after being placed on waivers by the Ottawa Senators.
