Ok other teams fan view.
Shesh had a career year, even if he doesn't play as well hes still a top goalie, but let's be honest he's the only reason you guys made the playoffs last year.
Krieder also had a career year and will almost certainly not hit that number again.
Trocheck (I'm a Canes fan) was a spark plug for this team for a few years and most fans including myself loved him here, but he has some defensive lapses that lead to goals and he gets out of position quite a bit.
The rest of what you said is true but the Rangers lack deapth and an injury or two could derailed them pretty quickly.
All that being said even with a few injuries I still see them as a playoff team but let's not act like they are all of the sudden the Avs only competition.

Perfectly built I'll take this bet as no. I say no where near the mug at end of year. Good team though.

Lol how are the Rangers young players “elite”?
They’re basically the same team as they were last year with Strome out and Trocheck in.

They were about to lose in 5 games in round 1 last year against their opponent's 4th string goalie until they cheapshotted their opponent's best player.
I mean besides the Rangers, I only see the Lightning and the Avs, as the teams that have elite hardware winning players in every position(G, D, W, C), and the Avs are questionable at G

Zibanejad has never and very likely will never win a major award and Panarin’s only award was the Calder.
Zibanejad is a good 1C but you’re being insanely generous with the word “elite” if you think he is “elite”.
But Panarin is a 100 pts player and Mika is playing like a beast in PP, PK, he’s reached the 1C level

They’re such elite talents that they combined for 49 points last season.
Take out their draft position and no one is acting like these guys are top end young players.

and got owned by the Jets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah Rangers are *quietly* a good team
But im expecting Kreider to go back to reality
Igor to have a solid year but not better than last year
& The young players are far from elite. They have potential but still need to show It… But still far from it
They will be a solid team. But I still pick Canes over em for división winner

OP didn't even mention Jacob Trouba's incredible leadership as the best captain in the league.

Every team can lay claim to being the perfectly built team if we just label everyone elite, even when they're not.

Yo call em red ryders cause those f***ers are wagons! Yo, call em a farm animal, absolutely goated. Yo, um.. ok this thread is nonsense let’s be honest.
A PPG player and great defensively ? Checks my 1C definition.
Seeing how Rangers PP is still ridiculous, I can see Kreider scoring at least 40

He is 100% elite at this point. Likely hovering around 40 goals and 85ish points. Decent defensively too
