Mike Sullivan hints power-play changes could be coming after latest Rangers flop
NY Post
For a team having a hard time scoring goals, especially at home, the Rangers power-play failure has been even more damaging.
They entered Tuesday 0-for-9 in their previous four games with a man advantage, then went 0-for-3 in a 3-0 loss to Carolina at Madison Square Garden.
Making matters worse was the Hurricanes taking the lead on a power-play goal in the first period.
After the loss, coach Mike Sullivan hinted that changes could be on the way for the power-play unit that’s been unable to produce much of anything.
“One of the reasons we stayed with the group we had to this point is we felt like, both from the eye test and analytically, this group has done a pretty good job as far as generating quality looks,” Sullivan said. “At some point, maybe we need to make some adjustments and we’ll certainly do that.”
For the season, the Rangers have been among the worst teams in the league on the power play, and Adam Fox, part of that first power-play unit, acknowledged the recent failure and how much it’s impacted the team.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
