While most of the Rangers roster changes happened in season, hosts Nick Zararis and Andrew Chelney explain why New York has plenty of opportunities to bounce back. Nick and Andrew explore what an improved power play, better team defense, positive regression from stars like Mika Zibanejad and Artemi Panarin as well as a new coach in Mike Sullivan will do for the team's fortunes next season.
