The Rangers have been a different team since the trade deadline. In particular, the additions of forwards Frank Vatrano, Andrew Copp and Tyler Motte have transformed the Rangers into a team that generates consistent offense and doesn't need to rely on all-world goaltending to win. Justin Braun has bolstered the defense, which already began to turn the corner in January.
