It’s the Rangers 15th game of the season, and they are already down about that many defensemen. Jacob Trouba is the latest to get hurt, and he’s out 4-6 weeks. That means we get a bottom four of Smith-Johnson and Hajek-Bitetto. Godspeed, Alex Georgiev.

The story is how frustrated and angry everyone appears to be.
