Rangers putting on goal-scoring show with no signs of slowing down
NY Post
TORONTO — A disclaimer is necessary regarding the strength of their competition, but the Rangers’ offensive prowess to start the season is indicative of the team’s uncanny ability to drown their opponents in goals.
The 20 times the Blueshirts have scored through the first four games of the 2024-25 campaign is tied for second in the NHL and tied for the second most over that span in franchise history, joining the 1987-88 team and falling two shy of the Phil Esposito-led 1976-77 team.
