Folks, we finally have a winning streak. Last week, the Rangers took care of an expansion Vegas team on its fourth-string goalie (though they needed a late comeback effort to do it), and then swept the always-difficult Florida road trip. While none of the games were perfect, the team’s process has been noticeably better since the third period of last Tuesday’s game against the Golden Knights.
This week, the Rangers continue what’s been a home-heavy early season schedule, with home games against Columbus, Boston and Edmonton. The Garden has hardly been a fortress so far, with the Blueshirts posting a mediocre 4-4-2 record.
