New York Rangers Must Achieve These Second Half Goals

Win at the Garden

The New York Rangers have a huge advantage in playing at Madison Square Garden. Whether they are winning or losing, the Garden is always packed with red, white and blue wearing humans. Unfortunately for said humans, the Rangers have not been doing as much winning at home as they have in the past.

After going 27-10-4 at the World’s Most Famous Arena last season, the Rangers have really struggled, having already lost as many games in regulation in 16 less home appearances.

Holding a 14-10-1 in Manhatten this year, the Rangers have also lost 4 of their last 5 in that building. The Rangers need to figure out a way to avoid these slow starts that they so often find themselves falling into at home so they can keep the fans in the game from the start.

The fans also have a responsibility here as well; be loud and proud. Not many fans have the financial ability to make a trip to the Garden, let alone multiple trips a year. Make sure your loud and energetic and don’t boo your franchise players during their struggles. The only time you should boo your own team is if they are giving you a lack of effort.
