After finishing last, Rangers enter season with low external expectations
Save for later
The New York Rangers have very low external expectations coming off finishing last in the Eastern Conference. General manager Chris Drury hopes his busy summer of changes has infused more depth into the organization to withstand injuries like the ones to franchise goaltender Igor Shesterkin and No. 1 defenseman Adam Fox that derailed his team last season.
One of the best things for coach Mike Sullivan's group is that the Metropolitan Division looks wide open after defending Stanley Cup champion Carolina.
