TEAMS:
New York Rangers
The New York Rangers’ current six-game winning streak is the longest streak they’ve had since the 2009-2010 season, when they won seven in a row. And according to Larry Brooks, this is only the sixth time in the past 17 seasons that the Rangers have put together a six-game winning streak. It feels good. It [...]

Is Olivia Munn the NY Rangers' secret weapon?
As you all well know, the New York Rangers are on a recent 6-0 run and there is a specific reason the team is feeling so hot; alternate captain Brad Richards reportedly started dating uber-hottie Olivia Munn over the last few weeks. In his last 7 games, Richards has netted 7 points, so scoring off the ice seems to help his performance ON the ice too. I could care less about the Rangers...
Video: Lundqvist Makes Header Save, Then Sprawls To Rob Parenteau
Henrik Lundqvist has been making saves with his head for years, but tonight he took it to another level combining the header with an unbelievable sprawling save. After making the header on Mark Streit, John Tavares found P.A. Parenteau with a seemingly open net to shoot at, but Henrik Lundqvist battled across without his stick and robbed him for a save of the year candidate.

Torts: Girardi is an All Star Player
John Tortorella continued his own personal All Star campaign for Dan Girardi by saying this about the Rangers defenseman to Blueshirts United..."He's turned into an All-Star player," noted the head coach. "He does everything. That's the simplest way to put it. He does everything there is for us, and he's the most underrated defenseman in the league. You...
When Stralman Plays Should Rangers Sit Woywitka or Eminger?
Given the New York Rangers current six game winning streak
it is hard to see coach John Tortorella changing anything in terms of the
lineup, but shortly there will be a decision to make on defense. Anton Stralman was signed to play and add to
the offense from the blue line and while he is still being worked into the
system his shot is coming soon. The
question is whether...
Rangers – Islanders Post Game Thoughts
Chris and I split the post game wrap up tonight. I had a dinner with other movers and shakers early this evening (of course I wore a pocket square, don’t be silly), so we kind of mixed and mashed our thoughts. Here’s what we got.
1st Period
For the first half of the first period, the Rangers applied great pressure on the puck carrier and didn’t let the Isles have much time...
Lesson Learned - Rangers @ Islanders (Sorta?) Post Game Thoughts…
That’s gotta be the first time i’ve ever seriously thought the Rangers have had more fans than the actual home team. Not just a few more fans, but far and away more fans. It honestly sounded louder than at the Garden in favor of the Rangers, which is just mind boggling to the nth degree.
The Rangers should have learned their lesson from the previous time they played...

Sunday Reads
Morning all, although only just for me as its almost midday here in the UK as I’m typing this… On a relatively quiet weekend for the Rangers (how often does a team get Saturday AND Sunday off?) its time to take a look around the Rangers universe at some of the more interesting reads.
Nick over at Rangers Tribune makes a very valid point (at least in my opinion, as well as his...

Rangers extend win streak
This was a case of the big-time player making the big-time play. This was a case of Page Six Brad Richards stepping up when the Rangers required it.

Focus Is Rangers Biggest Obstacle To Maintaining Win Streak Against Islanders
The
New York Rangers look to extend their winning streak to seven tonight as they
head to Long Island tonight to take on the rival Islanders. On paper it seems like an easy task as the
Rangers are now 9-3-3 while the Islanders are 1-6-3 following their 3-1
start. As Rangers fans know all too
