Artemi Panarin led the Rangers with 120 points during the regular season. Chris Kreider was third. And Mika Zibanejad was fifth.

Through three games of the Eastern Conference Final, that trio had combined for all of one point against the Panthers, an assist from Panarin.

Panarin finally came through with a pair of assists in Tuesday’s 3-2 overtime loss in Florida in Game 4, but the team’s leading goal-scorer during the regular season still hasn’t tallied a goal in this series and, worse, Kreider and Zibanejad didn’t produce anything.

And for all the terrific play from Vincent Trocheck and the continued emergence of Alexis Lafreniere — they both scored Tuesday — the Rangers will be hard-pressed to win this series, let alone their first Stanley Cup in three decades, without more help from some of their most established offensive weapons.
