The Rangers’ lethargic start to their season showed many of the same patterns that hindered them last season.
Even with Mike Sullivan’s debut behind the bench, the Rangers were outmatched 3-0 by what was projected to be an inferior Penguins lineup in all three zones.
For what it’s worth, the Rangers forced more turnovers, 23-18, despite failing to sustain consistent offensive zone time.
They’ll move on to face Buffalo in the Sabres’ season opener on Thursday.
