By New Year’s Eve, the Rangers had lost 15 of 19, as well as their last four games.
They’d fallen into last place in the Metropolitan Division, and only the Sabres were below them in the Eastern Conference.
Thursday night’s lopsided win over Philadelphia at Madison Square Garden extended the team’s point streak to 10 games, the longest such stretch in nearly a year. Since Jan. 2, the Rangers have a league-high 19 points and have scored 43 goals, also tops in the NHL. It’s left them just out of a playoff spot heading into Friday’s games, as they trailed Tampa Bay and Columbus by one point each.
