## Resource

The Rangers are on a mission to break their playoff drought after finishing dead last in the division and 21 points out of a postseason spot — the biggest gap in over 20 years. With new signings like Pavel Dorofeyev, Sean Durzi, and Marcus Pettersson, plus young guns Gabe Perreault and Noah Laba, GM Chris Drury’s “retool” plan aims to build for the future. But don’t expect an easy climb — analysts aren’t even ranking them as contenders, and they’ve missed the playoffs by 20+ points four times since expansion. Still, with Igor Shesterkin and Adam Fox back in the mix, and a much-needed offensive boost from Dorofeyev, there’s hope. Just stay healthy, get production from the newcomers, and fix that negative goal differential — and maybe, just maybe, they’ll finally make it back to the postseason.
