There is a different level of excitement surrounding the New York Rangers, one that was frustratingly absent over the last two campaigns.
With John Davidson in the fold, along with the additions of Artemi Panarin and Jacob Trouba, there’s a fresh taste of hope along with higher expectations in the air all throughout Rangerstown. The reaction is natural, especially when a team in rebuilding mode decides now is the time to hit the accelerate button.
Excitement aside, the Rangers have not done enough to become a legitimate cup contender.
