The Rangers have two games left, and both are against teams from Florida who are again Cup contenders. The Panthers are pretty shorthanded right now, with six players either on IR or day to day. Things like that haven’t stopped the Rangers from losing though, and with their season done, they are finally playing the kids. On paper, the Rangers lineup tonight is better than the Florida lineup, but again, that hasn’t stopped the Rangers from losing.
Most of us are just waiting for the season to end. Enjoy Sam Rosen’s final two games.
