Live From the Blue Seats is back at it tonight as Dave and Producer JL (and maybe Rob?) will talk trade rumors regarding Vincent Trocheck and the Minnesota Wild, where we think Braden Schneider will end up, and who else might be moved by the trade deadline.
Last week we discussed potentially trading Alexis Lafreniere and Braden Schneider as part of the Rangers’ ongoing retool. Much of the recent media focus has centered on who might be leaving New York, but far less attention has been paid to what could come back in return.
It’s one thing to represent your country in international competition, like the 4 Nations Face-Off or the IIHF World Championship. It’s a whole other thing to do so at the Winter Olympics.
Sweden struggled early in its Olympics opener against Italy, but thanks in part to New York Rangers forward Mika Zibanejad, the Tre Kronor pulled out a 5-2 win over host Italy in Group B pool play Wednesday in Milan.
In the lore of the NHL, it's the Stanley Cup-winning teams that are remembered the most from seasons past. Yet, when looking back on the best of the best
With the white flag already raised on this season and a retool underway, the New York Rangers must diligently prepare for the 2026 NHL Draft, where they should have one of the top selections.
With the New York Rangers entering what they are calling a “retooling” period, fans might have to get used to seeing some random players on a nightly basis as the team works through this tough time.
Perhaps no team in the NHL needed the three-week break for the 2026 Milan-Cortina Olympics more than the New York Rangers. One of the most disappointing teams in the NHL, the Rangers couldn’t have scripted a much worse centennial season.
After making it to the Eastern Conference Finals in two of the last three seasons, hopes were high for the New York Rangers in 2025-26. The season has been nothing short of a disaster.
Losers in six consecutive games (0-5-0-1), the Hartford Wolf Pack are free falling. They were swept by the Providence Bruins last week, losing 3-1 on Friday, followed by a 2-1 shootout loss on Saturday.
Jeff Marek’s take on the JT Miller trade is simple but tough: it was bad for both the Vancouver Canucks and the New York Rangers. Most trades pick a side—someone wins, someone loses.
Rob McClanahan readily admits how blessed he was to be part of the 1980 United States men’s Olympic hockey team, and then to play five seasons in the NHL.
Right before the roster freeze went into effect, the New York Rangers made headlines by trading star forward Artemi Panarin to the Los Angeles Kings. Fans immediately questioned the return, wondering how the Rangers weren’t able to get more back for a player of Panarin’s caliber.
The Olympic break will serve as a reset of sort for the New York Rangers as they look to make the most of the final stretch of the season. While there are plenty of changes they need to make on the ice, there’s also plenty of moves the Rangers need to make off the ice to help the retool.
When Rangers GM Chris Drury released a letter to the fans last month announcing a retool, he noted that this process could “mean saying goodbye to players that have brought us and our fans great moments over the years.” We’ve already seen one of those players on the move with last week’s trade that saw Artemi Panarin get moved to Los Angeles.
It’s only been two practices in Milan, and there are still several days before the preliminary round begins with a game against Latvia on Thursday, but it’s looking like New York Rangers stalwarts J.T.
Mike Sullivan and J.T. Miller are both currently in Milan, Italy, focused on helping Team USA capture Olympic gold for the first time since the Miracle on Ice in 1980.
Well, that’s officially it for Artemi Panarin on Broadway. Considering the underwhelming return that failed to bring back a first-round draft pick, the New York Rangers may want to prioritize getting premium draft capital back in the next seller moves ahead of the trade deadline.
The New York Rangers have one of the top trade targets in the NHL right now in veteran center Vincent Trocheck. The 32-year-old is a respected locker room presence and one of the most consistent two-way forwards in the NHL.
The Vancouver Canucks made a very hard decision last season when they traded forward J.T. Miller to the New York Rangers. Vancouver made this choice because of the crumbling relationship between Miller and their star forward, Elias Pettersson.
The New York Rangers played their last game before the Olympic break on Thursday night. New York took on the Carolina Hurricanes as they looked to gain some momentum before the league’s pause.
The New York Rangers made a trio of transactions to prepare their roster for the Olympic break, reassigning forward Anton Blidh and netminder Spencer Martin to their AHL affiliate, the Hartford Wolf Pack.
In a candid moment during his introductory press conference with the Los Angeles Kings, Artemi Panarin opened up about why his contract negotiations with the New York Rangers never progressed.
The Los Angeles Kings' acquisition of Artemi Panarin just before the Olympic roster freeze on Wednesday is a reminder that people forget every year — the no-movement clause (NMC) is ironclad.
The New York Rangers have gotten used to losing this season, but it appears they suffered another type of loss on Saturday. The team announced that forward Noah Laba sustained an upper-body injury during their game against the Pittsburgh Penguins, forcing him to leave the game with no chance to return.
