That is the attitude the Rangers need to have after every game. This win is meaningless without tomorrow. You can not rest on your laurels, you can not just assume you will keep winning because of one game. No, you need to bust your butt on each and every shift, you need to crash the net, you need to be disciplined, and you have to be hungrier than your opponents.
Say it with me. This win is meaningless without tomorrow. I want it to be our mantra, because we all have seen this before. Rangers play a great game, then the next one they come out flat and either barely win, or lose. When was the last time the Rangers had back to back blowouts (4+ differential)? I can’t even remember it’s been so long. That’s just how meaningless this game needs to be in their minds. They accomplished nothing, all they did was undo what they did against the Canes. They have a ways to go before they are were they should be, which is in first place in the division, and until they hit that point (and even after perhaps) they need to treat each win as follows…this win is meaningless without tomorrow. Win every game, and do not accept mediocrity. This team can be great when they want to be, when they force themselves to overcome their own personal inner demons that have been killing them. Hell, they won a game tonight without a single goal from Jagr, Gomez, or Straka, and yet you can definitely say the top line was fantastic out there. How rare is that?
Anyway, I think you get where im going with this. Beat the Devils, then beat the Habs, then win 5 out of the next 6, and then we’ll talk.
