I realize it takes time to gel and I think they will be the team to beat in the long run. They can make a few adjustments before the deadline. 1) Try to package Roszival in a deal for Tampa's Dan Boyle, then put Boyle with Staal. 2) Get Adam Foote from Columbus and put him with Mara. Foote should'nt cost that much and he would add the needed grit this defense lacks and would bring additional leadership to the dressing room. Subtract Roszival and Malik we should be in good position to make a strong run! This is the team I envisioned at the beginning of the season!

Seven out of the eight points available is more than promising...this Rangers squad is playing with verve and want. Now with the most unlikely line combos (thanks Renney for the 200th line combo) who the hell would have thought Dubie would be centering Avery and Jags. Your assessment of Drury is underrated. This guy plays a old time hockey, working both sides of the crease -- a terrific defensive and offensive force. Throughout the season, there have been missed scoring opportunities, but he has contributed to the total package more than any other Ranger to date. Drury will be our Captain in the next couple of seasons. Hail Connecticut. The Dark Ranger COME ON PESSIMISTS….CAUTIOUS RANGERS FANS ACROSS GREATER NEW YORK….YOU CAN LIKE THE TEAM AGAIN!

Brendan S, I couldn't agree more. I thought the physicality of the game kept the team engaged for all 60 minutes. When it comes to Cally and Dubi, they're both ALWAYS full throttle and its a real pleasure to watch. UB BULL, you're not 100% correct in your statements. Yes, the Rangers have played a couple more games then the competition, but 13 of their last 21 games are against the Atlantic Division. They control their own destiny against those opponents.

The rangers have played more games than ,most of the teams just behind them. When the games even out the Rangers are 9th and playing early April golf. The Rangers need some help to make the playoffs. they do not yet control their own destiny. Once they gain control of their destiny they will follow the path set out by the now three time Super Bowl Champs, New York Giants, and win the Cup. They may be in 6th but it is weak 6th.

That is definitely one very good thing about having Cally and Duby both going full throttle: they both provide a lot of physicality on the offensive lines.
