. The on-ice goal differentials these trios carried over the course of the season were mesmerizing:
With Panarin on the ice, the Rangers were +2.1 better than their opponents for every 60 minutes played – that, for what it is worth, is the highest number in the league by a considerable margin. When Panarin was off the ice, the Rangers were -0.8 goals per 60 minutes of play. For a benchmark, that would be a rate similar to that of the 26th-place New Jersey Devils.
In the four games we saw between these teams during the regular season, the Carolina top pairing saw about 52 per cent of their minutes against the Panarin line. That’s something we would expect to continue heading into the five-game play-in round. The Rangers – much like their rival on Long Island – have a wealth of competent goaltenders to choose from, and yet only one crease. It would seem logical that the crease is’s until further notice – the future Hall of Famer has a sterling record and is the safest choice of the three.
