The New York Rangers Need To Play A Full 60 Minute Game

11/09/2022 at 8:52am EST

from Larry Brooks of the New York Post,

There was proper solemnity and concern from the Rangers on Tuesday night following their staggering 4-3 Garden loss to the Islanders, in which they held a 3-1 lead into the third period following their most urgent first 40 minutes since opening night.

But of all the observations inside the postgame room, the most pertinent came from Adam Fox, who said: “We can’t rest on last year. We can’t say ‘We did that last year.’

“It’s been the same thing. We bring it for 40 or 30 or 50 [minutes]. We have to right the ship here.”

No one cares at this point about the 2021-22 Rangers’ run through May into mid-June. That seems as long ago as their last Stanley Cup. That group no longer exists. This 2022-23 team, which entered the season carrying expectations created by that team last season, hasn’t been able to come close to meeting that unenviable challenge.
