Rangers vs. Islanders: It's Not Cute Anymore (x2)
The Rangers fall to 0-6-1 at MSG with five home shutouts—a baffling collapse that’s testing patience, perspective, and logic.
- It was after the 3-0 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes at MSG earlier in the week when captain J.T. Miller told the media after the game, "It's been 14 games, it's not cute anymore." So, if that was the case then, what is it now?
- The Rangers are 0-6-1 in seven games at MSG this year. In five of those games they have failed to score a goal. Both of those stats are unfathomable in their own rights, but together? I really don't even have the words.
- It would be one thing, too, if the team just sucked. I mean, they're not amazing, don't get me wrong—but they're not that bad. Well, they are at home actually. So again, I have no idea what to think.
