TEAMS: New York Rangers
It’s a musings day once again, and it’s the day after a game day. A Trip to Buffalo. Without further delay, let’s get into it. After all, I have a stag weekend to attend.
The Rangers loss to the Devils; there was still a lot to like. The way they conceded the tying goal hurts, but ask the Phoenix fans about Brad Richards’ game winner a few weeks back and it just shows that luck comes and goes.
The thing that most stood out for me in the Devils game was the amount of high quality chances the Rangers created/had.

The Rangers again went oh-for-the-powerplay last night, making their stretch of games without a powerplay goal something like 700 games. The powerplay has done some good things (although last night it stunk), but the end result is what matters, and the end result...
Eklund: Rangers: More to come after Christensen trade?
Several sources have told me today that the biggest impetus behind the Rangers trade of Erik Christensen to Minnesota for minor league center Casey Wellman is to open up roster space for another acquisition. Rumors are rampant that Ryan Smyth is New York's most immediate target but I am hearing there are several other possibilities as well.
