It was only a matter of time before we heard the bad news on Darroll Powe, who took a nasty fall yesterday after a collision with Matt Hendricks. Powe has been placed on IR (note: not LTIR) and the Rangers have recalled Brandon Mashinter from Connecticut to replace him on the roster.
It will be interesting to see how coach John Tortorella deploys Mashinter –likely on the fourth...

Del Zotto: We Didn't Exploit Them Down Low

February 20, 2013
For some reason the Rangers refused to play physical with the undersized Canadiens who should have been a pushover last night, especially with them playing on the second night of back-to-backs.
What makes it worse is that based on Michael Del Zotto's post game remarks it was actually their game plan going in...

Goal Breakdown: Canadiens at Rangers

February 19, 2013
This could have been one of the most boring games I have ever seen. The teams combined for just 13 shots in the first, 25 total through the second, and very little offense. In the end, the Canadiens took advantage of two big Ranger miscues, while the Rangers couldn’t take advantage of the 27 icings the Canadiens took. The Habs won a boring game against a shorthanded Rangers team...

Montreal Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty scored his first goal of the season in the most unusual way possible, a dump-in from center ice, during the third period of Monday's game against the Carolina Hurricanes. Pacioretty's dump-in from the left wing somehow made it past Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward, just 18 seconds after Pacioretty recorded an assist on a goal from teammate...

Yesterday, I posted a report that the Colorado Avalanche had talked to the Rangers about a trade including Michael Del Zotto and more for Ryan O'Reilly.
Well, Adrian Dater at the Denver Post now says the "more" was likely J.T. Miller or Chris Kreider.

Just because Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price wasn’t between the pipes on Monday night for the Habs’ game against the Carolina Hurricanes doesn’t mean he wasn’t able to display some fancy glovework while watching the action on the ice while seated on the bench.
During the second period, a puck off the stick of Hurricanes defenseman Jamie McBain (awesome name —...

On Hockey Day in America, it would be fitting that American Born Derek Stepan would net the game winning power play goal for the New York Rangers. In a game that had the intensity of a playoff game, the Rangers played one of their most complete games of the season firing a season high 40 shots at a hot Braden Holtby. On the 30th shot of the game for the Rangers, Carl Hagelin finally...

from Larry Brooks of the New York Post,
So this is what the NHL has as a matter of entertainment, after at least three times within a week codifying as legal checks, on which the attacking player finishes off his opponent with a forearm or elbow that drives his prey into the glass or boards.
The NHL has a quagmire like last night’s aesthetically displeasing match at the...
