It seems that most reports dealing with the Rangers talk about how they have lots of talent but no chemistry or they've got lots of offense but no defence or goaltending.

How about they don't have much of anything except players who used to be a lot better then they are now?

Forwards reach their prime around 26. All the Rangers big name forwards haven't seen that age in a long time. They might have been really good back at 26 but now they're just mediocre to good. And to win in the NHL you have to have really good players who are really good now. Otherwise, someone could dominate the league by signing Gretzky, Coffey, Kurri, Bossy, Trottier, Fuhr, Potvin, Lafleur, Howe, etc and put them in the lineup.

It's talent not chemistry that's the Rangers problem.
