The Rangers are in action tonight in Vegas after losing their previous three games by a combined score of 18-3. Based off how this is going, the Rangers are going to give up four to Vegas and find a way to score negative-one goals. Anything is possible.
Tony DeAngelo is back in, but Adam McQuaid is still dressing despite better options being available. Brendan Smith comes back out, and boy could anyone have predicted just how bad that signing would have been? Sure there were detractors, but even they couldn’t have predicted this.
Maybe this will work?
