It’s not October yet. However, there’s so much anticipation to see our New York Rangers takes the ice.

With the tinkering made this offseason, how will the team perform? Will changes in personnel make the dynamic of the team difficult or seamless?

The good thing is, the core group of players is still in place. Starting from the goalie position, through defense, and up to forwards, a majority of the players have remained to continue in their usual spots on the ice.

However, there are still question marks on players that this season may answer. It may determine if they are keepers to continue with, or time to part ways with and move forward.

As a fan, it’s never fun to watch a player struggle when you know they can do better. We’ve all seen what they can do, it’s just the consistency that we all want. Some players we want to see if they can replicate what they did in the past and build on it.

It’s make or break for these five players to see if they stay under the spotlight of Madison Square Garden.
