Definition of Mid

Lmao their opening lineup is better than last year. Get to the playoffs and anything can happen (see panthers last year)

And yea any injury to a star player on any team would be a huge blow lol

They're still contenders. Maybe a little top-heavy lineup lacking depth of some other contenders. If the Rangers were in the Western conference they would be competing to win their division. And the number one seed in that conference. The East is just much deeper competitively overall.

The Rangers are definitely better then mid.. lol

One of the best defenses in the league, a top 3 goalie, solid forward group from line to four, the Rangers are much better then a mid team.

People just regurgitate nonsense, I swear. No, "anything" cannot happen and FLA doing well wasn't surprise to people who know what they're watching. NYR took half a step forward while all of their competition grew by miles. This is not a serious hockey team. They only care about regular season attendance.

This D core is Fox. lol NYR fans love to drink our own kool-aid, pretending that Miller (Myers lite) and Schneider (Ceci lite) are more than they are. Lindgren constantly overworking himself playing #2 position when he should be a 4. Trouba should be a 6, playing 2/3. They are not cohesive, don't compliment each other and aside from the Fox Lindgren pair, don't add positive value on their own. The only team in the metro with assuredly worse D is PHI. NJD and CBJ are arguable.
