The Rangers faced another critical loss against a playoff-bound Eastern Conference team, showing signs of giving up on the season. Despite some early promise, the team's veterans, aside from Artemi Panarin, appear demoralized and lacking confidence. Player inconsistencies, particularly from K'Andre Miller, have left fans frustrated. With various lineup struggles and potential calls for coaching change, questions about the team's chemistry and direction are prevalent. The overall lack of engagement and underwhelming performance raises doubts about the path forward for the Rangers this season.
The team's veterans outside of Artemi Panarin are not only snake bitten, but simply look defeated. No one seems engaged and they totally and completely lack any semblance of confidence right now.
Considering he's a restricted free agent with arbitration rights, Chris Drury might look to move out the inconsistent play, taking a huge risk that he eventually figures it out.
It sounds like there were some 'Fire Lavi' chants at the end of the game, and quite frankly, I think that really might be the move when the season is over.
It's lifeless. It's hard to comprehend and transcribe into words exactly what we are watching.
