I already posted this on the previous page:
"For those of you complaining that the Rangers beat up on the crap teams and smell against the good teams and use that as an indictment of them, you're unaware of the reality of the NHL. That's how it works for almost every team.
This is approximately how the best teams are performing against this years likely playoff teams (I used the same opponents for all of them):
Isles are 7W 14 L against likely playoff teams.
Car 10/6
Fla 5/9
TB 7/7
Pitt 13/9
Wash 11/12
Bos 11/11
Tor 17/8
Edm 12/13
Winn 11/15
Mtl 10/13
LV 10/9
Col 13/10
Minn 8/12
St. 9/11
I don't know if it works this way every season, but this season, the best teams are all feasting on the crap, just like the Rangers do, even though they are not a top team".
You're missing the point that almost the entire NHL can't win consistently against the better teams.
Every good team is feasting on the bad teams. This is not an issue specific to the Rangers, no matter how much some people want it to be.
