With their no-show in Game 7, the New York Rangers are out of the playoffs. It was their year. They had a great team on paper. They rolled through the first two games in Newark. Then, they no-showed and lost four of the next five. The series with the Devils was expected to be close, and since it went 7 games, it felt close. But let’s be real, the Rangers didn’t show up, and it’s not that they lost, it’s how the Rangers lost that really leaves us wondering what happened.
How the Rangers lost
It’s easy to say something catchy like #YesQuitInNY (shameless self promo) and have that sum up how the Rangers lost.
