Once again Rangers get NO help.....

Philly won in OT with under 5 seconds left Tuesday night. Detroit wins in OT with under 1 second left tonight. Those OT wins over SO wins help for the ROW TB.

It is almost comical. Philly wins every game now. CBJ wins just about every game now (outside of their last game). Pitt is killing us as they get beat in every game that we want them to win.

I will say this right now, tomorrow night is the biggest game of the season for us thus far. We lose tomorrow night and we are best case a WC. To me it is that simple. No must win because we can (and I think will) still get the WC. But if we lose tomorrow night say goodbye to 2 or 3 in the Met division. Best case we are a WC.

Huge game. Even with a win we are no lock for the 3 spot in the Met, but a loss and I think we can kiss it good bye (especially considering CBJ's schedule and they'd be 2 up with a game in hand still). And with CBJ playing tonight, we have no excuse. We certainly can win tomorrow at CBJ.

Even Wash.is right there now. Watch theyll win in LA tonight.lol

Didn't win, but got a point in LA, which is still big. They are 1 back of us, but we do have a game in hand and the TB.

HUGE game tonight...really is if we want the 3 spot in the Met. Plus with everyone else winning we need points to hold onto a WC spot as well.

Big two days for us. At CBJ and at NJ. Tonight is very big.

The Rangers can't look at it like they aren't getting help. They need to play with the same high-intensity every game and not be concerned with anyone else other than their opponent. But yeah, no one can over-state just how important tonight's game is....and then Sunday's game....and Monday's game...and Wednesday's game. 3 of the next 4 are against playoff teams w NJ being the exception.

Don't care about "help" at this point. Currently the team is in a position where it can make the playoffs only worrying about themselves and no one else and that's what they should be looking at. If they do what they're supposed to do we won't have to worry about other teams helping us.

They've played like shit against NJ all year long and it needs to stop. They need to win that game, period. NJ sux, for F's sake.

No one is saying feel sorry for the Rangers since they are getting no help. No one is saying they should rely on help to get them in. But it is crazy how all these teams the Rangers would like to lose are winning. Good for those team for getting it done though.

But what can you do. We cannot worry about that. We need to take care of our own business, that's the way it should be. Win to get in.

And while I think both games are very important, and we all hate the Devs so we want to beat them, I think tonight is more important than the Devil game for sure. This game is against a team tied with us for the 3 spot in our divison, which means automatic playoffs, and potentially a better 1st round matchup as well.

This isn't about relying on other teams....It's just amazing how little help NYR get on this stuff. Detroit is missing like 5 centers and still beats the Pens who have basically laid down for every team that is fighting for a playoff spot vs NY
