That's not surprising at all. The Rangers can't get a touch of the puck with Hajek on the ice.


I don't think his giveaways are inherently a problem as much as he's not actually doing anything 5v5 (most of the time) for all the risks he's taking.
Doesn't Panarin lead the team in ES points?

Yes, he's scoring but our possession game and defense are very poor with him on the ice.

He's the type of player who can find points when he's not driving play, which is better than not, but we're a better team when he drives play.
 
It looks like every play, the Rangers are saying to themselves "Okay hmm, let's see..there's a guy over there..another over there.."

Meanwhile Carolina is just going "Gimme gimme gimme"
 
Schneider looking more and more dangerous every game. He may not have the skill of many of our prospects, but he at least wants to make something happen and has the potential for more offense.

Canes work ethic is miles above ours, they move their legs and forecheck. The way to win you need to ice the puck or at least just launch it out of the zone immediately. If there's a ton of icings, it is better than sure-shot goals against. Just do whatever it takes to get the puck OUT, then hope for an easy breakout every now and then.
