My observation is they have not...without Shesterkin's otherworldly goaltending they do not have the personnel to play against the top teams.

Speed, agility, and grit lacking from their forwards, ageist issues, same prescription for the defense.

Place Shesterking on either the Devils or Isles, and they are in the playoffs with those ingredients the Rangers lack.

Drury has failed as the GM like those before him, no Coaching staff wins a Cup without the personnel to do so.

83-1 is a reality, and that one courtesy of the Oilers!
