Is Asham the New Avery?

Last night, off the opening face-off Arron Asham did his best to fire his teammates up by doing this... Unfortunately, the Rangers didn't respond to the dismay of John Tortorella (via NY Post)... “High marks for Ash. That’s what [ticks] me off a little bit. Ash goes in there and hangs in there and turns it around and we don’t come in behind him. When a player...

Lundqvist Describes New Mask

When we finally get to see Henrik Lundqvist lead the Rangers onto the ice in Boston, he'll be wearing a brand new mask, which he describes in this video (H/T to reader Steve)... Here's pics of the mask... ...i love Lundqvist, but sort of a strange concept to celebrate legends of the Silver Screen. Even if they are from Sweden. ...having said that, as...

No Timetable on Sauer

Yesterday, I posted some somber news regarding Michael Sauer not even in the conversation for the Rangers this season. Now, Jeff Klein at the New York Times has this from Sauer's agent Ben Hankinson... “I wish I could give you some kind of timetable on when or if he can come back, but I can’t. Unfortunately it’s still day to day, week to week, month to month. Michael’s...

Horrible defense and bad start nothing to worry about

There’ll be plenty of celebration this season, despite the slow start Here’s an interesting statistic I read after the Pittsburgh loss: The Rangers will play their 48 games in 99 days. Last year they played their final 48 games in 100 days. Basically there is no great concern or big deal to be made of the compressed schedule. There will also be sufficient practice time. The Rangers...

Pens exact revenge on Flyers; win 3-1

Tyler Kennedy, James Neal, and Chris Kunitz each scored and Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 26 shots as the Penguins beat the Flyers 3-1 Saturday in Philadelphia. Anyone expecting a matchup similar to the circus-like six game playoff series from April left very disappointed.  Both teams had stretches of strong defensive play and both goaltenders, Marc-Andre Fleury and Ilya Bryzgalov...

PHILADELPHIA -- The Pittsburgh Penguins opened their 2013 season by winning at a place where their 2012 season ended bitterly.

"I think there is always a little bit...

Penguins fly past Philadelphia 3-1

As any of us that were watching the game, and stomping around the living room, throwing our hats at the tv, spittin’ & a’cussin as we were put on hold for another half hour or so, my face lit up like a kid at Christmas at 3:35 pm EST, when The Pittsburgh Penguins’ season officially [...]

RECAP: Like Riding a Bike. PENS WIN.

Before today the best 60 minutes of Paul Martin's Penguin career was his introductory press conference. Today Martin and the rest of the defense set the tone with a complete 60 minute effort. We can tell ourselves that this game will never avenge being beat in the playoffs by the Flyers, but guess what it does a little bit. Especially when you think about the fact...
