Artemi Panarin shaves head again in hopes of breaking his season-long Rangers slump
NY Post
Artemi Panarin is in the midst of a brutal stretch in what’s been a rough early part of the season, so he finally made a change.
Not to his game, but to his head. He shaved it. Again.
“I had to change something,’’ the Rangers star said after practice in Tarrytown on Thursday. “The next step is a left stick if this doesn’t work.”
Panarin was being light-hearted, but he knows his recent play hasn’t been up to standards.
He doesn’t have a point in his past six games and has scored just twice this season after putting up 37 goals last year and a career-high 49 the season prior, when he also shaved his head in hopes of getting better results.
The slump he’s in now is especially ill-timed.
