They aren't defending breakouts and teams have a literal express lane through the neutral zone. Zero resistance. 4 at the blueline but they just back up instead of standing up.

It's the worst neutral zone defense I've ever seen. They're not even in the frame most of the time.
It’s the opposite of the Grabner or Gaborik years, where we’d be airtight defensively and then just wait for a breakaway from either of them for a goal.

Oilers are in position even before the Rongos pass into them
 
This team is completely predictable to our opponents. We even slow down our transition so the other teams can get in position.

Turnover
Backhand pass to no one
Weak flip in Dzone resulting in a turnover
Failure to clear the puck out of the zone
Backing up in the Dzone
Give up ghastly number of quality scoring chances

Did I miss anything ?

Rangers have to make a change. This is getting out of hand. I bet the players already tuned out Laviolette. Same shit as Gallant. Drury will just do nothing and let the players control the team
