Rangers Remain Consistent In This One Frustrating Stat
Photo credit: NHL.com
Death, taxes, Rangers allowing multiple goals in clusters, their most consistent trait all season.
The game was tied 1-1 at the start of the second, and right on schedule, the Vegas Golden Knights score back-to-back goals, in 46 seconds, to make it 3-1 Vegas.
The 22nd time this season the Rangers have given up multiple goals in less than three minutes.
The Rangers have allowed multiple goals in 60 seconds nine times this season. That's tied with Ottawa,
Tampa Bay and Nashville for third-most in the league and trails only San Jose (11) and Columbus (10).
Let's step it up even further. 20 of our 48 overall games (42 percent, 6th in NHL) our opponent has scored two goals within four mins.
We also lead the league in percentage of games giving up opposition goals within 2 mins at 31 percent.
There is clearly more of a problem to this team than a trade would be able to fix.
That hot start to the season that led to the Rangers being first in the league, is starting to look a bit fraudulent.
