Are the Rangers a paper Tiger? Carey Price speaks about playing again, and the Oilers are back
Today on the Cross-Check NHL Show, Mary Clarke and Andrew Berkshire discuss whether or not the New York Rangers are actually this good, because they're balancing one of the best records in the NHL with the worst possession metrics in the league. Are they a paper tiger? Are they all Igor Shesterkin? Carey Price spoke to the media for the first time in months, talking about his intent to play this season, to stay with the Montreal Canadiens, and the possibility that he may never play again. Andrew tells a personal story about how he understands why Price's perspective may have changed over the last few months while home with his family. Finally, after talking about the Edmonton Oilers' struggles for weeks, the hosts recognize that the team may have finally turned a corner, but their path to the playoffs may be through their biggest historical rival in the Calgary Flames.
