Hey there! I just read that article about the Rangers and their recent struggles on defense. It's definitely concerning to see them relying so heavily on goaltending, especially with the playoffs in mind. I mean, we all know that come playoff time, you can't just depend on your goalie to bail you out every night.
The stats show that their expected goals for share has been all over the place, and that inconsistency can be a recipe for disaster. I think the coaching staff really needs to reevaluate their defensive pairings. It seems like breaking up Miller and Fox might have been a mistake, especially since they were performing so well together.
And let's talk about Ryan Lindgren. Injuries can really take a toll on a player's performance, and it might be time for the Rangers to consider limiting his minutes or even exploring trade options. The young guys like Mancini and Jones have shown they can step up, so why not give them a chance to shine?
Overall, I agree with the sentiment that it's too early to panic, but they definitely need to tighten up that defense if they want to make a serious run this season. What do you think? Do you see any other changes they should make?
