Mika Zibanejad grew frustrated with a question about the Rangers’ offensive woes. The New York Rangers ’ offensive woes hit another low Monday night, and so did forward Mika Zibanejad’s patience. Following a 3–1 loss to the Minnesota Wild at Madison Square Garden, the Rangers fell to 0–4–0 at home, scoring just one goal in four games.

While the New York Rangers are unable to score or win on home ice, the San Jose Sharks are having trouble winning anywhere.

The Rangers' three-game goal drought at Madison Square Garden came to an end 57 seconds into the first period on Monday night, but New York couldn't muster anything else in a 3-1 loss to the Minnesota Wild.

Artemi Panarin scored New York's first home goal in four games and Igor Shesterkin made 29 saves, but the Rangers (3-4-1) lost their fourth consecutive home game to start the season. They set an NHL record by getting shut out in their first three home games.

The New York Rangers are back at Madison Square Garden for a Monday night matchup with the visiting Minnesota Wild.

"We've got to work on our offense," Artemi Panarin said. "Our defense hasn't been bad, but you can't win with one goal."

Asked if he felt the team has the urgency he believes it needs to thwart the slow start to the season, the captain said, “That’s the level we need to bring. We need to have that. We can’t just hope things work out. When we play an urgent game, we get results. We haven’t been scoring, but we get results. We need to bear down.”

The New York Rangers have had a historically poor start to the season at home to begin an important 2025-26 NHL season. The post New York Rangers Not Panicking Amid Historic Scoring Slump appeared first on Heavy Sports.
