"I mean, kind of the same. I think we're just trying to focus on games. Myself included. There's a lot going on, the deadline and everything. But I think all anyone could do right now is take it day-by-day, and try to bring a good effort, try to bring good attitude. And obviously, go from there."
"The implication of that word choice is that this renovation project shouldn't last very long. A nip here, a tuck there, and the Rangers will be back to Stanley Cup contention soon. And so, yes, Artemi Panarin, who has led the team in scoring each of the past seven seasons was traded to the L.A. Kings before the Olympic break, but that's part of the plan."
Adam Fox declined to clarify or expand on his earlier comments questioning the Rangers' retool strategy, instead emphasizing a day-by-day approach following a 5-4 overtime loss to Columbus. Fox has faced significant challenges this season, including an Olympic snub and injuries that sidelined him for 27 of 30 games. The Rangers announced a reorganization in mid-January, with general manager Chris Drury labeling it a retool rather than rebuild, suggesting a quick turnaround. The team has already traded leading scorer Artemi Panarin to the L.A. Kings, and Vincent Trocheck appears positioned to be traded before the deadline. Trocheck acknowledged discussing the possibility with his family and expressed acceptance of a potential trade.
