The New York Rangers power play is not working. They have scored two goals in their last 23 chances and have been shut out on the power play in five of the last seven games. Considering that five of the seven games lost by the Rangers in regulation or overtime were one goal games, power play issues are playing a huge role in the team’s sub-.500 record. So, how bad is it?

The numbers

The Rangers have played 75:22 minutes with the man advantage, 12th most in the NHL They have had 44 power plays, 11th most in the league.
