Every team in the league would love to be in that position. Agree. The difference between the Rangers and every other top team is that the Rangers haven't played their best hockey yet.

RichieNextel305 Posted March 8 Author Share Posted March 8 Jason Zucker to Nashville. Unless there’s a name we haven’t heard thrown around or they’ve made strides with Anaheim for Vatrano, the Rangers aren’t likely to make a trade here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our PP saved us from being humiliated. It was not a 50/50 game. We were dominated. florida got better, much better this trade deadline. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes maroons are going to maroon no matter what info you put in front of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game came down to a bad goal by Igor that took the air out of the building and the energy out of the team. But yea, cracker jack over here telling me I need to watch games when the actual numbers say the Rangers were the favorites. But fuck proof when some can, like, have their opinion, mannnnn!

I'm not sure how that's relevant. The microstats are the microstats but the scoreboard wins at the macro level. The same stats that say the Rangers should lose all year (even though they win) say that they should win this game (even though they didn't).

The same stats that say the Rangers should lose all year (even though they win) say that they should win this game (even though they didn't). They deserved to be in that Florida game. It was pretty even, all things considered. Why is what I said relevant? Sometimes you lose games you should win and vice versa. The issue is the macro sample size for the season says they have been major beneficiaries of the "vice versa" part of that equation. There's no trend upwards as the season has gone on either. In fact, it's trending downward. That's why it's relevant. They are now 24th in both xGF% and HDCF% at 5v5. You're a smart guy. These are the same kinds of stats we looked at with Gallant in charge and said it probably indicated they aren't nearly good enough. Not only that, but they are worse this year than the last 2 years.

Yes, sometimes you win when you should lose but over the course of 82 games (50+ so far) if you're first in your division and a team near the top of the league all season then that's not "chance" anymore. They're just a team that bucks trends. I've said this before, but this team is different where under GG if they didn't get a PP goal and .925+ from Igor, they had ZERO chance of winning. Now they win in different ways. The win without .940 goaltending. Their PP wasn't good during a 9 game win streak. They haven't played their best hockey and the playoffs are about the team playing the best hockey. That's why they play the games and don't just let AI determine the winner.
