Top stories from last week:
- The Rangers had a rough start to the week, losing to the Islanders and Flyers before righting the ship against the Isles.
- Live From The Blue Seats was off again. It’s been tough for us to get a week where all of our kids are asleep so we can record.
- In this week’s Patreon post (subscribe here!), Dave talked balancing injury prevention and winning, which at this point may be moot.
- Many are cautious regarding the President’s Trophy, but home ice matters a lot more to the Rangers this season.
- Dave talked the Rangers’ strong powerplay and goaltending, and how some perceive it as a negative.
- With two losses in regulation in a row last week, many were down on the Rangers. But few strong teams are still playing strong at the end of the regular season. They know what’s coming.
- There were a pair of lineup changes last week, swapping Barclay Goodrow and Jonny Brodzinski at 4C and swapping Jacob Trouba and Braden Schneider on defense.
- The big, big news was Filip Chytil returning to practice. If he returns for the playoffs, it’s huge for the Rangers.
- JL took us down memory lane when Mark Messier returned to the Rangers for the 2001-2002 season.
