Lundqvist and Zuccarello key for Rangers in 2015-16 August 28, 2015

Despite coming up short in the Eastern Conference Finals in 2014-15, the New York Rangers have reason to be optimistic going into this season.  For one, Henrik Lundqvist continues to be one of the best goaltenders in the NHL. The Swedish netminder showed no sign of decline last year, improving on both his save percentage (.922) and goals against average (2.25) from the 2013-14 season.

Meanwhile, the imminent return of Mats Zuccarello to the Rangers lineup will be a big boost to the team.  The crafty winger will be a key cog in the team’s top six, as well as their 1st power play unit.
