"Somehow the New York Rangers have found themselves with no goals at MSG through their first three home games. It's like they've been watching the New York Jets and have been trying to figure out how to one up the most hopeless franchise in the tri-state area. Now, after watching three games at the Garden I have a much different feeling despite the Blueshirts 0-3 record on home ice and their inability to convert, there's hope."
"Sunday night against Washington, outside of a few moments, the Rangers really controlled the play and the pace of the game. If it wasn't for Charlie Lindgren getting revenge for his brother, then the Rangers would've easily skated away with a 4-1 or 5-1 victory over the Caps. Tuesday night against Edmonton it was basically the same kind of script where the Rangers controlled the play. Looking at Steven Valliquete's Clear Sight Analytics chart after the game, the Rangers yet again deserved a win."
The New York Rangers remain without a goal at MSG through their first three home games but have shown promising play and control in two recent contests. The team appeared to be adjusting to a new coach and missed key preseason pieces, which contributed to a sluggish home opener when the full lineup skated together for the first time. Against Washington and Edmonton the Rangers largely controlled play and the pace, outplaying opponents according to Clear Sight Analytics, but lost because opposing goalies Charlie Lindgren and Stuart Skinner delivered strong performances. The overall play suggests the team is on the right track despite the scoreless home slate.
