Just when New York Rangers fans thought it couldn't get any worse, Wednesday night happened. Looking to end a four-game skid, the Rangers no-showed against the Ottawa Senators. The Senators took a commanding 4-0 lead heading into the first intermission. By the end of the second intermission, the Rangers trailed 6-1, with Jonathan Quick pulled after surrendering his sixth goal of the game. The Rangers had their "too little, too late" rally in the third period, losing 8-4.
The Rangers have now lost five games in a row. Ironically, this losing streak began after Igor Shesterkin suffered a leg injury in the team's game against the Utah Mammoth on Jan.
