He’s recognized by many as one of the best-dressed athletes, but Henrik Lunqvist wasn’t always a fashion maven. In a new feature on MrPorter.com, the Swedish goaltender and sports style icon admitted that he wasn’t very into clothes until the age of 16 or 17. And hockey is partly responsible for his sartorial upgrade.
“I started to make my own money as a hockey player which...

There have been a few injuries among the Rangers and the prospects over the past few weeks, none of which have really been publicized too much. But it’s worth noting the following guys who have been injured (anything that says current means they are currently battling the injury):
Rick Nash – shoulder, groin (current)
Carl Hagelin – shoulder (current)
Shane McColgan – concussion...

Listen I know it's not for the Rangers but this is a sweet goal by Derek Stepan for his Finnish team KalPa (:30 mark)...

...you don't normally see highlight reel goals from Stepan like that. Maybe he's looking to add some some razzle dazzle to his game overseas. Let's hope he doesn't bring back some of the defensive deficiencies...

Yesterday, Brad Richards gave Katie Strang at ESPN.com some pretty candid thoughts on the lockout...
"We're scared for the game. That's the biggest thing. Where is the game going to be if this keeps going? I'm not too optimistic about it. There has to be a negotiation. There hasn't been yet."
Richards added that the union's membership has discussed...

As of right now, Operation Hat Trick has raised $500,000 for Sandy relief. Auction pending, so more coming.

...the jersey auction should bring in another $10 - 15,000. Amazing job by everyone involved. Even Brodeur.
Speaking of money, Forbes released their list of 2012 NHL Team Values and the Rangers landed at #2 with a team...

While everything about last night's Operation Hat Trick charity game was perfect, one strange site was seeing Vinny from the "Jersey Shore" as Team Richards head coach.
Assuming the reason he participated was because of his obvious connection to New Jersey. He's also from Staten Island which was one of the areas hardest hit by Hurricane Sandy...

"I still don't think, if (the NHL owners') last quote is 'great offer, but you need to make another and we're not budging,' I don't know what a mediator is going to be able to do."

Thirty-two NHL players got together in Atlantic City Saturday night and gave fans a little more than hockey to cheer for.
A charity hockey game — dubbed Operation Hat Trick — featured Henrik Lundqvist, Martin Brodeur, Brad Richards and a host of other NHL stars from all over the league and helped raise money for the victims of Hurricane Sandy.
There was no lockout at...

Actions often speak louder than words. As the NHL and the players are stuck in a PR battle, it's easy for each side to spin things however they want them to appear. Actions, though, speak for themselves.
Some players made the best of the situation and helped to organize a charity game in Atlantic City, a trip that was not so convenient for many of the attendees (Henrik Lundqvist...

Along with 10,791 other hockey fans, I was in attendance at Atlantic City’s Boardwalk Hall last night as Team Richards defeated Team Hartnell 10-6 in “Operation Hat Trick.”
The Sandy relief event, organized by ex-Flyer Todd Fedoruk, featured nine members of the New York Rangers: Henrik Lundqvist, Brad Richards, Brian Boyle, Taylor Pyatt, Arron Asham, Jeff Halpern, Dan Girardi...
