Haha I wouldnt point to your April 2023 cup as a measure of success. The rangers quite literally werent coached. Larry Brooks pulled no punches and mentioned it again today in his column.You’re missing a very important aspect to win the playoffs..depth. Need that depth scoring. It’s not just about the stars and the top 6..especially in the playoffs.
I mean devils beat rangers last year in the playoffs with a top 6 very similar to what the have now..so I don’t think that’s an issue
If rangers had lavi last year they wouldve cruised through the devs, beat carolina and likely lost to the panthers in ECF
