Nashville Predators superstar forward sounds off the New York Rangers struggles at MSG this season
NHL legend and two-time Stanley Cup champion Steven Stamkos was asked about the Rangers during a pre-game scrum. His answer echoed what a lot of us are thinking: it's not sustainable, is it?
The New York Rangers are 0-6-1 at home. A shame has been done to Madison Square ice, as the team has failed to grab the brass ring and exercise dominance where it counts the most: at home.
They need to find their footing after a deflating loss to the New York Islandersrecently.
NHL legend Steven Stamkos commented on the team's home slump, which has been a sore spot for the Rangers, who have a new group of forwards and front office staff.
That includes two-time Stanley Cup champion Mike Sullivan.
«I think what's gone on here is - just a blip. It's not sustainable right?»
Which is a valid question, as the team has to find a breaking point to where they pull themselves out of the hole they've dug, or they succumb to their weaknesses as a team.
The New York Rangers losing streak isn't sustainable
The Rangers vs Predators is a game that could be a turning point.
The team is 0-6-1 at home, and tonight could be the night where the Rangers break their slump.
A team that desperately needs a win could use a win against another team that is terrible could be a way to find their rhythm and their confidence again.
The only thing that matters is that they piece together a full 60 minutes of play against the Predators.
