The New York Rangers will try to put themselves back on track this week after their worst loss in nearly 17 years.
The Blueshirts enter their game against the Seattle Kraken at Madison Square Garden on Monday night at 20-20-6, the NHL’s version of .500, after finishing an 0-2-1 week by being humiliated 10-2 by the Bruins in Boston on Saturday in front of a national TV audience. Mika Zibanejad’s goal 1:24 into the game put New York ahead 1-0, but Boston led 3-1 after one period, 7-2 after two and rolled up the score in the final 20 minutes against a team that showed no interest in competing.
