The Rangers are currently in their best stretch since the 1972-73 season when they went 14-0-2.  They’ve won 12 of their last 13 games and currently have the league’s longest win streak at four games, after having previously won eight in a row before losing to Dallas.

A big contributor to the streak has been the success with the man advantage, with the Rangers going 12 for 36 during this run, and that’s including the first three games where they went 0 for 5.  The 33.33% conversion rate has catapulted the team into the 8th spot, averaging out at 21.2% for the season to date.  Eight different players have registered at least a Power Play Goal, a microcosm of the distributed scoring that the team has demonstrated over all.
