Rangers go from First to Worst....

Malkin and Conklin Too Much for the Rangers :
“We gave them too much space tonight,” Rangers forward Jaromir Jagr said. “We’ve got to play them differently. They’re too young, too quick."

Apparently, everyone is too much for the struggling Rangers of late, and it shows in the standings. This is about as uninspired as I have seen them all season; and with one of the most competitive divisions in the league, their current out of playoff contention position will get solidified if this keeps up much longer. Maybe not having Sean Avery accounts for the complete lack of spark; but that is certainly no excuse for a well-assembled team of highly paid professionals. Much more of this, and you can bet that the coach is going to take the rap...
