Let’s be honest, there wasn’t exactly a groundswell of excitement nor much interest about the New York Rangers returning to practice Tuesday. Such is the case when you’re a last-place team and largely out-of-sight, out-of-mind since the Olympic break began two weeks ago.
The Rangers recalled forwards Brett Berard and Brendan Brisson yesterday as the Rangers resumed skating and practice. The pair of forwards were likely recalled to fill out lines while Mika Zibanejad, JT Miller, and Vincent Trocheck are at the Olympics.
The last of the quarterfinal games in the men’s hockey tournament at the 2026 Milan-Cortina Olympics will have a definite New York Rangers feeling to it Wednesday.
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
Losers in eight of their past 11 games (3-7-0-1), the Hartford Wolf Pack sunk to a new low this past weekend despite ending a six-game losing streak (0-5-0-1).
At the Olympic break, the New York Rangers sit in last place in the Eastern Conference and 30th among 32 teams in the overall NHL standings. It’s not pretty.
The Rangers announced they’ve recalled forwards Brett Berard and Brendan Brisson from AHL Hartford. With multiple Blueshirts still overseas at the Winter Olympics, Berard and Brisson will serve as practice supplements before likely returning to Hartford in a few days’ time.
Amid the New York Rangers’ rough 2025-26 season, sitting at the bottom of the Metropolitan Division, rumors are circulating that veteran center Vincent Trocheck could join the Minnesota Wild, a playoff contender in the Central Division.
For the first time in a long time, the New York Rangers are in position to weaponize an offer sheet to make a splash in NHL free agency this coming offseason.
The New York Rangers have had plenty of rough games in the last season and a half. Most games have resulted in losses, some harder to swallow than others.
The New York Rangers have begun their retooling process. Rangers general manager Chris Drury made the team’s intentions public in a letter to fans before the NHL’s Olympic break.
The New York Rangers are right back where they started after releasing a letter to their fans in February 2018. The front office attempted to prepare their supporters for a rebuild when they released that letter, but a series of events that led to Artemi Panarin falling into their laps caused them to change course and attempt to contend.
The New York Rangers’ 2025-26 season has fallen apart, and as a result, much of the roster could be dismantled ahead of the March 6 NHL trade deadline.
One of the reasons why the New York Rangers are heading into a retool is due to the team not having enough star power. While Igor Shesterkin and Adam Fox are great players, they can’t do it on their own, and with Artemi Panarin now gone, they don’t have any offensive superstars that scare the opposition.
The New York Rangers will be a clear team to watch once the NHL roster freeze is lifted. The Rangers are one of the NHL’s top sellers, as they have already traded Artemi Panarin to the Los Angeles Kings and Carson Soucy to the New York Islanders.
Team USA and the New York Rangers 32-year-old center might be on the move ahead of the March 6 NHL trade deadline as the Rangers’ most valuable trade asset after the departure of forward Artemi Panarin.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
