To quote former Rangers head coach David Quinn “So, that happened.” Now the New York Rangers find themselves headed for breakup day instead of Raleigh for round two. The Rangers now face more questions than answers, as a bunch of stars, and make no mistake that’s what they were, and not a team, were lifeless in Game 7 in Newark.
How did it get to this? How did the Rangers manage to waste yet another stellar goaltending performance by Igor Shesterkin? It’s pretty simple actually, when nobody but your goaltender show up then you’re bound to be embarrassed.
