Rangerboy over on the HFBoards had a few interesting stats. The Rangers are tied with the Islanders and SJ for fewest games played at 27. The Rangers have the fewest losses in the NHL at 6. 17-6-4. If the Rangers didn’t blow the 2-1 lead late in the 3rd to TB,the Rangers would be in first place in the Eastern Conference. Tonight concluded a stretch of 16 straight games against Eastern Conference teams. The Rangers went 12-3-1. Pretty remarkable numbers right there. 12-3-1 against your own conference…if you think of that in terms of playoffs, that would be heading to the Stanley Cup Finals. Of course that’s not how this works, but still, winning games against good teams on nights you should win are important. And yes, the Rangers should have won this game. It took me all of 5 minutes to realize the Rangers should have won the game. Why? Because Jose Theodore had absolutely zero rebound control tonight. He was kicking out these huge, big, juicy, tasty, succul...

Michael Del Zotto is ninth in the entire NHL in plus/minus. While many people don’t place much stock in the statistic (after all Marek Malik did lead the league in plus/minus one season) it does provide some indication how the young blue liner has begun to turn his game back around this season. Del Zotto could have been forgiven for stalling in recent times when Mike Sauer was...

Rangers on point vs. Panthers

After Derek Stepan and the New York Rangers put on one of their most impressive offensive displays of the season, all they could do was tout their defense, grit and hustle. Stepan scored twice, including a pretty coast-to-coast goal just after the Rangers killed a penalty, and New York beat the Florida Panthers 6-1 on Sunday night for as comprehensive-looking a win as New York has...

Postgame: Rangers Back on Track with 4-1 Win over Sabres

Great teams have the ability to generate great bounce-back performances, and that’s exactly what the New York Rangers did tonight in their 4-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres at HSBC Arena. Having lost their last two coming into tonight, the Blueshirts needed a strong team effort to get back on track, and they got that this evening against a strong opponent. With the Rangers and...

Postgame: Rangers Smack Panthers, Climb to 4th in East

Since winning games in bunches like they have for the past month and a half became common, one thing the New York Rangers have done very well is bouncing back after losses.

Not going to get all wrapped up in who did what on a lopsided scoresheet, though I’m sure you all enjoyed the heck out of it, and you should have. Instead, how about numbers?: 17-6-4, second best record in the improving East and fewest regulation losses in the NHL; 8-2-2 at home. Points in 16 of 19. 24-8-3 in second of back-to-backs since 2009-10. 38 points in 27 games, the...

The Rangers Are Ready for Their Closeup

Full Steam Ahead

That is the kind of attitude the New York Rangers should take after beating the Buffalo Sabres and Florida Panthers over the weekend by a combined score of 10-1. The team is clicking on all cylinders as they are supplying the offense, solid defense and getting timely goaltending from both Henrik Lundqvist by Martin Biron.
