A road trip seemed to be just what the Rangers needed, as they picked up three consecutive wins against the Vancouver Canucks, Edmonton Oilers, and Seattle Kraken. The vibes were much higher than they'e been for the Rangers and the fanbase. So maybe this could carry over into Tuesday where they returned home to take on the Carolina Hurricanes. Maybe this would be the perfect time for the Rangers to pick up their first win at home.
That didn't happen. Despite a strong start to the game, the Rangers lost 3-0 to the Hurricanes. All the good vibes from the West Coast trip have completely disappeared.
