New York Rangers: Can This Team Make A Deep Playoff Run?

Injuries 

This one is tough because it all stems from luck, but I still say that if the New York Rangers were healthy last May they would have made another Finals appearance.

Every team has their bumps and bruises going into the playoffs, but the Rangers need to avoid serious injuries, such as Ryan McDonagh‘s broken foot from last season.

Speaking of McDonagh, both him and Rick Nash need to be healthy when April comes around. While the Rangers have been playing surprisingly well without two of their top players, this lack of depth will be exposed in a seven game playoff series.

Cross your fingers folks.

I've been a die hard Rangers and Giants fan for as long as I can remember. I enjoy sharing opinions, and hearing from fans that love their teams just as much as I do. Henrik Lundqvist makes all of us look like mere mortals.
