October Record

Here is the NYR October schedule. After a hard earned loss in game one to Pissburg what do you think the Rangers record will be for October. It's hard to beat any team if you can't score... can they go Ofer October? My guess is 3-9-0. What do you think?

I know it's only one game in, but after what I saw on Tuesday, I agree on the 3-9 record. In fact, I predict they start 0-4. Yes, they lose to Buffalo tonight.

I know it's too early to think about tanking, but if your top prospects are not good enough to make this mediocre bottom six group (and beat a Connor Sheary for a roster spot), we are in serious trouble. We need a lottery pick. I have my sights set on Ryan Roobroeck, Dylan's brother.

Well, it is still preseason for Miller and Panarin and they still have Igor. I would guess somewhere around .500.

3-9 seems reasonable.
