It comes down to 2 things in my eyes. Is Laviolette going to be better, worse, or the same as Gallant and can the offense perform better in the playoffs so they don't have to get carried by Igor? I think they may go backwards a little bit, but comfortably in. 3rd in the Metro with 103-108 points.
I love Artemi, but if he disappears in the playoffs again I would find a way to try and move him to free up the cap space to reconfigure. As to whether or not LAviolette cna get more out of this collection of talent than Turk…I have doubts and I don't expect them to do much better or be more consistent than they were last year and I don't expect them to really do any better. I don't think Laviolette will get the kids tp really produce at the levels we all want them to and I have no reason to expect that our veteran core will do any more than what they have shown in the past seasons. I think we are a really good team…that is not good enough to win the Cup.

Go rangers
It’s time for the Rangers.
surprised he didnt hit on the "kid" line as much. I think they need to be the difference makers here. Imagine if Chytil kept impressing, and LaFreniere and Kakko started to really produce.
He Panarin was Under the Gun. Too Soon
They need better 1C than Zibanejad. They also lack depth on the RW – hope Kakko gets the first/second RW position to thrive (the other first/second RW being Wheeler). Overall Chytil, Kakko and Lafreniere need more ice time imo.
Then there are the brutal contracts but that’s for another day…
Shannon reminds me of Rod Gilbert.
In terms of the regular season, Rangers are basically the same team minus Blais, plus Wheeler (Teresenko, Kane and Mikkola were late additions). This should be an overall improvement. It’s also noteworthy to mention Loviolette replaces Gallant.
Well, can't be much worse than last year.
The East is really tough. They are a top contender but there are many.
Seems to be a team that's been really good and is going to be very good for the forseeable future. Well run, really. Im sure they'll snag they're per-decade cup sometime soon.
As an isles fan it will be an interesting year for the rangers. Much like us, it comes down to goaltending. I think the devils are the best team in the area with the isles and rangers really close to each other. Should be a great season.
I'm hoping we do well. You mentioned it before, but it will come down to grit and working hard. The defense stayed tough, but the offense looked too timid to win a series. Igor needs some help.
I love THG, but not excited about the breadman slander. I know a lot of Rangers fans are not happy with his post-season performances. Add me, but the guy has absolutely earned his money for his duration in NYC. For me, it seemed like the whole team (except Shesty) were kind of in chaos in the NJ series, I blame Gallant for that. I like Lavi, but not sure he can get this team going. I'll be pleasantly surprised if he does.
Great blue line, the one that makes 8 million is prob the 4th or 5th best on most nights
30 years ago- The Hockey News predicted a NYR Stanley Cup win coming off a disastrous prior season!
same regular season . make a harder push in the playoffs . going to be fun to watch the rangers this year.
THE DEVILS!!!
I think they're going to have the same issues again this year, lack of scoring depth, they'll be a fine reg season team that will sink in the playoffs unless they fix this over the season.
I need that rangers collection video 😩
The Rangers should have more Cups than they do.
That being said, the Rangers are their own worst enemy.
I expect more of the same this year.
This last season hurt. Was hoping for a few more goals from the kids, and a but more physical play
Though I’m scared for the league since we have Brayden Schneider turning into another trouba train.
No Cup. ?
