NHL Weekend Shockers: The Rangers’ Stark Divide and a Surprising Bottom-5 Turnaround
The twist, of course, is that both teams are the Rangers. The first one, the good one, is the Rangers when they’re on the road. The second one is those same Rangers on home ice.
Does that make sense? It does not. Then again, this is the same team that went from winning the Presidents’ Trophy in 2024 to missing the playoffs in 2025, so maybe the whole duality thing is just kind of their vibe. The New York Rangers: They contain multitudes.
The problem is one of the multitudes is embarrassingly bad. We saw it again on Saturday, when the Rangers welcomed their arch-rival Islanders to Madison Square Garden. And I mean that literally — they were extremely welcoming. Come in, make yourself at home, score a few late goals to run up the score.
