| Two questions right now in New York. Does Jaromir Jagr have another playoff run left in him? Will he even get there? |

| Their season flashed before their eyes when Scott Gomez went down hard in Philadelphia, but the Rangers got lucky because his injury isn't as bad as first feared. |

| The power play has hurt the Rangers all season, and it all but killed their long shot hopes for a first-place finish during a weekend trip to Florida. It could cost them a playoff spot as well. |

| Suddenly a conference title isn’t a crazy notion for the Rangers, who are now in striking distance.They haven’t lost in their last 12 regulation games, going 9-0-3. |
| 03/03/2008 | 8 | 10 |
| They're positioned well for the stretch because they play 13 of the final 17 games against division rivals and the Rangers have the best record by far in games between Atlantic teams. The offense is coming around, too, with at least four goals in each of the past five games. |
| 02/25/2008 | 10 | 10 |
| Jaromir Jagr's game has come alive since joining a line with Brandon Dubinsky and Sean Avery. The trio has nine goals and 12 assists in the past five games. |
| 02/18/2008 | 10 | 15 |
| Five days off gave the Rangers a chance to recharge the batteries and the added energy made a big difference in wins over the weekend against two good teams. Sophomore Brandon Dubinsky has been one of N.Y.'s best players of late. |
| 02/11/2008 | 15 | 13 |
| The Rangers have played more games than anyone they are battling for a playoff spot and haven't built any kind of cushion. New York has dominated teams in the Atlantic, though, and the final three weeks are all intra-divisional games. |
| 02/04/2008 | 13 | 17 |
| There has obviously been a chemistry issue all season because of all the changes, but the Rangers finally looked like the team they could be with three road wins in four days against good teams. Chris Drury is starting to become noticeable as well. |
