Why Rangers home woes at ‘snake pit’ Madison Square Garden not so surprising

Six weeks into the 2025-26 season, the New York Rangers are the NHL version of Jekyll and Hyde. They seemingly have a split personality as it pertains to their results at home and on the road.

The Rangers are tied for the most road wins (nine) in the League with the Los Angeles Kings, and are one point behind them for most road points (20-19), The Blueshirts are 9-1-1 away from the Garden, and the Kings are 9-1-2 on the road.

Conversely, the Rangers are 1-7-1 on home ice, worst in the League, after wasting Jonathan Quick’s brilliant 40-save performance Sunday in a 2-1 loss to the Detroit Red Wings.
