The Rangers laid another egg in Calgary the other night, and now travel to Vancouver for what might be a double revenge game in the JT Miller / Elias Pettersson saga. Pettersson was curt with media today when asked about Miller, which is fair. Miller had more words but equal value, stating he learned a lot but the Rangers have work to do. Both seem to be focused on business, but there might be a little pep in their steps, so to speak.

More importantly, the Rangers really need a win. Process be damned, they just need the two points if only for team confidence at this point. The way they’ve been playing, Quick might need to steal it, but honestly a win is a win if they get it. It’s going to be a long few months while they figure things out.
