Did Kaapo Kakko just play his way onto the top line in Rangers' loss to Bruins?!?

The Rangers get two goals each from Mika Zibanejad and Kaapo Kakko, but they lose their grip on a two-goal lead and are defeated 5-4 by the Boston Bruins. Breaking down each of Kakko's two goals. Several Ranger defensemen scuffle, but Zac Jones has a mostly strong night quarterbacking the Rangers' top powerplay and looks primed to start the season as the sixth defensemen. Playing together for the first time, Artemi Panarin, Vincent Trocheck and Vitali Kravtsov have a rough night. Igor Shesterkin fine after having a stomach flu. Why Gustav Rydahl (and not Ryan Carpenter) being sent down isn't a surprise. Did Kakko just play himself onto the Rangers' top line???
