Rangers Rank #63 in ESPN Ultimate Standings
Bang For The Buck (BNG): Wins during the past three years (regular season plus postseason) per revenues directly from fans, adjusted for league schedules.
Fan Relations (FRL): Openness and consideration toward fans by players, coaches and management.
Ownership (OWN): Honesty and loyalty to core players and local community.
Affordability (AFF): Price of tickets, parking and concessions.
Stadium Experience (STX): Quality of arena and game-day promotions as well as friendliness of environment.
Players (PLA): Effort on the field and likability off it.
Coaching (CCH): Strength of on-field leadership.
Title Track (TTR): Championships already won or expected in the lifetime of current fans.
Based on this criteria, the Rangers found themselves ranked #63.
The top NHL team is the Phoenix Coyotes who land at #6, while the worst team overall and in the NHL is the Toronto Maple Leafs.
...the fact that the New York Mets are not ranked #122, tells you all you need to know about this ridiculous list.
...thoughts?

Jets, Mets, Giants, Yankees, Knicks and Rangers all rank in the bottom 16 of Affordability.
There are some perks of being a fan of the Coyotes or the Lightning
I think they got the worst team right. As for the Mets, yeah they deserve to be near the bottom, but not last. Not at all. While the Mets experience has gone down a lot, people still enjoy going to games when they lose. Since tickets are really, really cheap. And cheap is nice. The fact that the Astros are ranked higher than Mets makes me laugh. Astros fans have no hope. At least we may have a Cy Young Award winner this year.
Ralph, I don't think the Rangers should be higher, I just think the idea for these standings are ridiculous.

@TheNYRBlog kevin i think your forgetting another team with pretty simmiler colors, the islanders should be 122 and mets 121 get it right!
You do realize that the Rangers, God I love them, have not had allot of success over the years. So its not all that unbelievable.

The mets arent the worst team in sports. The islanders are way ahead of em in that category
@graves9 ...coaching and titles. The only category they should do will with is stadium experience. Everything else. Dead last.
@graves9 I'm sorry based on the criteria, Mets should be dead last. Wins last 3 yrs, fan relations, ownership, affordability, player effort.
@TheNYRBlog Please with the player effort. The effort is fine the talent is the problem. The Astros have absolutely no talent or hope.
