The Rangers gave us hope with a three game win streak after a four game losing streak, and then completely wasted all that good will with an absolute clunker on Saturday against Tampa. To add injury to insult, the Rangers lost their best player, Adam Fox, for an extended period of time. Now the Rangers are playing six of their next eight at MSG with a gauntlet this week starting with a true Stanley Cup hopeful in the Dallas Stars.

Dallas is very, very good despite dealing with numerous injuries. The Rangers were bad before the Fox injury and are now worse. This could get ugly, even more so since the game is at MSG.

Watch the Rangers win 7-1 or something.
