The Rangers did what they had to with that soft schedule to finish. They didn't meet expectations but a strong postseason erases that.

It figured the Rangers would finish strong given their schedule, and they're doing exactly what they needed to. They control their own destiny to get in, and with Florida and Carolina left, that's good.

The Rangers still don't blow you away, but they should be feeling good about a playoff berth. They have seven games left and no team they'll play is in playoff position, setting them up to finish strong.

For as ugly as things have been for them -- and they've been pretty ugly -- they're still hanging onto eighth. Not sure if that says more about the Rangers or the Eastern Conference.

The news that was good isn't so good anymore: The Eastern Conference that was looking so soft has bunched up, meaning the Rangers have an even tougher fight facing them and with a ton of road games to come.

The sounds you hear are the panic alarms going off. How is it that a team with Marian Gaborik, Brad Richards and Rick Nash can be the worst team in the East in scoring?

You're starting to see why they wanted to get Rick Nash so badly. He has 12 points in the past seven games. Not coincidentally, the Rangers have won six.

The Blueshirts have won two straight but they hardly have the look of a team that's turned the corner yet. The question that everybody is starting to wonder is if there is actually a corner to be turned? Rick Nash leads them in points despite missing some games. They need more from Brad Richards and Marian Gaborik.

We're at the point that we can start to worry. The Rangers have lost three straight and are not performing up to what you'd think is their potential. They have offensive potential but the way they play doesn't allow it to flourish.
02/18/20131010
The Rangers are definitely rounding into form, going 4-0-1 in their last five. They haven't looked better than the first 30 minutes on Sunday when they fired 32 shots on goal.

Last season the Rangers finally started to realize the potential so many had seen coming for years, but they still didn't finish the job. Insert a winger like Rick Nash to the puzzle and there's no getting around this being a very dangerous team.
