From Ryan Dixon at The Hockey News:
Assuming a non-partisan hockey fan is holding the remote, which team is most worth turning to? The Devils and Rangers have been the default flip for years, but the landing of John Tavares on Long Island might just make the Islanders the most intriguing local bunch of puck-players.
Think about it. Jersey, you can bet, will be re-suited for Jacques’ trap. And the Rangers? Well, they could be just plain awful.
Last week, I used this cyberspace to discuss how, with a modicum of goaltending, Philadelphia could be a legitimate Cup threat. Well, at the opposite and shallow end of the Atlantic you’ll find the Rangers, a club that is still in real trouble even if it gets all-world goaltending every time out.
Henrik Lundqvist aside, the Blueshirts are a team in desperate need of dependable talent.
