As the regular season rolls on, the Rangers have won four of their last five. This recent run of improved form has been propelled by improved process and development of young players but continues to negatively impact the lottery odds for a high pick in a stacked draft. Pick your poison. The deadline looms large, with the Blueshirts in an enviable position of holding a significant variety of assets that contending teams would find useful. I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that this deadline/offseason might be the single biggest indicator about the long-term success of the rebuild.
