It’s do or die for the NY Rangers. After getting up 2-0 in the series, the Rangers are now on the brink of elimination, having lost three straight. Even worse, they no-showed Games 4 and 5, both considered must wins. The good news is that this team has the talent to win both Games 6 and 7. The bad news is we’ve never seen them no-show like this before.

The Rangers need their stars to show up. And by stars, we mean Mika Zibanejad and Artemi Panarin, who have been non-existent all series. Someone needs to step up for this team, and quite frankly, it doesn’t matter who. The entire team appears to have the life sucked out of them by a 5th round draft pick.

Someone needs to make this work, or the series is over tonight.
