Rangers must focus on future coming out of the break

The Rangers fell to the Islanders in their last game before the All Star Break and have lost 2 in a row heading into Friday against Detroit. At 23-21-4, the Blueshirts have 50 points and are 11 points out of the last wild card spot. With the trade deadline coming faster than you think on February 24th, the team will play only 13 more times by that date.

Can the Rangers close the gap for that final wild card spot? Unless the Rangers go on a huge run out of the break, they are likely to be a distance from the last playoff spot.
