New York Rangers: Five Thoughts Through 80 Games

1. The New York Rangers went 3-3-4 in their last ten games, owning a -3 goal differential. In the ten game stretch prior, New York went 5-5, with a -2 goal differential.

To be fair to the Rangers, the majority of the past ten games meant nothing. While Alain Vigneault played Ryan McDonagh like the games were for the Stanley Cup, realistically the team had less to play for than their opponents in nearly every game.

Still, a concerning statistic is that the Rangers allowed 30 goals in those ten games. Henrik Lundqvist continues to look mortal, and the defense continues to do him no favors.
