TEAMS: Nashville Predators, New York Rangers, Montreal Canadiens
With the trade deadline rapidly approaching (February 27th), the rumors have been coming fast and furious here's the latest...Christopher Botta at the New York Times says it would likely cost the Rangers a player from the current roster and either a high draft pick or a top prospect to obtain the Predators Ryan Suter. Bota feels Tim Erixon could be used to sweeten the pot.The 27-year-old Suter has 5g, 23a this season and is in the final year of his contract that pays him $3.5 million this season....as I mentioned in the previous post, Erixon is, in my opinion, a pretty big part of the Rangers future and I'd hate to see him traded for essentially a rental.Next, Steve Zipay at Newsday reports that the Rangers are currently trying to move Wojtek Wolski....Wolski's $3.8 million salary this season makes him virtually impossible to move, but I also thought the same thing about Scott Gomez.For news on NHL interest in Sean Avery, click the "Read More" tab below.

In a Good Place
This is exactly what the New York Rangers are in heading into the NHL All-Star Break this weekend.
The team currently sits in the top spot in the Atlantic Division while also being in first in the Eastern Conference with 66 points. While there is still a lot of hockey left to be played, there really is not much Rangers’ fans can complain about these days.
With that said,...
One more Before the Break
The New York Rangers are back in action tonight to take on the Winnipeg Jets at Madison Square Garden before taking a few days off for the NHL All-Star break.
The Blueshirts are coming off a big 3-2 overtime victory over the Boston Bruins thanks to a goal from Marian Gaborik. It was the Rangers’ 30th win of the season and as it stands right now, the team is tied for first...
Callahan Disses @TheBroadwayHat
Last night, Ryan Callahan was awarded the Broadway Hat for his amazing efforts in the Rangers 3-0 victory over the Jets. But for some odd reason he chose not to wear it and instead stuck it in his locker.I know the hat has seen better days, but I've got to say it's a bit disappointing for the captain to dismiss something that's been used as a chemistry building tool for...

Suter was picked in the ninth round by Team Chara, one pick behind Weber.
This is Suter’s first All-Star Game appearance.
Post-game interviews
A few quick notes and quotes from tonight that weren’t in the notes sent out by teh team:
NOTES —
• Brian Boyle played just 11:49 tonight after twisting his right foot on a collision in the corner during the second period. It cost him to miss a good chunk of the period, but he returned and even killed penalties later in the game. Boyle had less ice time only four...
Rangers-Jets review
Someone asked Henrik Lundqvist last night if he knew the Jets hadn’t won the second part of a back-to-back all season. He laughed and said he didn’t, then insisted it didn’t matter. Some team will always be the first, he said.
Despite sitting atop the Eastern Conference at the break, Lundqvist and the Rangers refuse to leave a stone unturned. The idea of Winnipeg...
Shea Weber vs. Ryan Suter
Arun MoraceIn an era when all sports, not just hockey, are striving for great offense and big numbers, the National Hockey League’s Nashville Predators are certainly a franchise that is going against that grain in an old- school way. The core of their franchise is not built around a great offensive presence, the way the Washington [...]Sports-Kings - The Kings of Sports Lists
