Focusing on their own game has been the Rangers’ mantra throughout the last 14 games, over which they have gone 11-2-1. It had to be. No team was going to pave the way for them to get back on track, which became abundantly clear after an egregious 5-2 loss to the bottom-feeding Blackhawks on Dec. 3. The Devils started the season as if they had been shot out of a cannon by winning 19 of their first 23 games. They won 13 in a row at one point, all while averaging nearly four goals a game. The NHL was put on notice that the Devils had finally arrived after years of rebuilding, underachieving and missing the playoffs in nine of the last 10 seasons.
