The New York Rangers' latest 3-1 loss to the Minnesota Wild in Madison Square Garden has shown the team's glaring issue: effort. For J.T. Miller, it was evident in a recent interview addressed the issue without pretense as the team's Captain.
The team's loss to the Minnesota Wild showed that while the Rangers can score goals on home ice, there remains a lack of effort by the team.
That is straight from the mouth of Rangers Captain J.T. Miller, who felt that they have stolen victories from other teams recently but didn't deserve to win.
Instead, they haven't played good enough according to him, and will have to turn the page after their latest loss on home ice, continuing the slump to 0-4-0 on Monday.
The New York Rangers Started The Game Well, But Couldn't finish
The Rangers had help from Artemi Panarin early in the 1st-period, and notched the team's first goal at home this season.
The Wild wouldn't relent, with Jonas Brodin answering with a goal of their own. Afterward, they'd lose control of the game, as forward Danila Yurov would score his first goal, and Kirill Kaprizov would score the empty-net goal for the winner.
Mike Sullivan:
«We scored early, which was great, but I thought we got outplayed,» he said, via NHL.com. «We knew we were going to play a team that was going to come in with urgency based on circumstance, and we didn't match the urgency. That was the challenge. We got outplayed tonight.
John Hynes's Wild outshot the Rangers 32-24 on home ice and kept control of the game the majority of the night.
Now, Miller will have to whip the team into shape if they're to win in Madison Square Garden this year.
