ARTEM ANISIMOV RUMORS

Anisimov versus Dubinsky?

Artem Anisimov still isn’t playing to the level he has the ability to reach. It is this statement that makes Anisimov both frustrating and exciting at the same time. That all said, Anisimov has provided plenty of big moments for the Rangers this off season and has quietly put together a solid playoffs even if it has been punctuated with poor games and an occasional trip to Hotel...

Anisimov Impersonates Graves

In my Game 1 post game thoughts, I noted that Artem Anisimov's goal was eerily similar to Stephane Matteau's Game 7 double overtime winner against the Devils in the Eastern Conference Finals in 1994.However, reader slackos32 points out it was actually closer to Adam Graves' round two series clincher in overyime against New Jersey in 1997......wow that is almost identical...

Quick injury and lineup notes

Per Andrew Gross, the Rangers have some good news in the injury department. Artem Anisimov was skating this morning at the optional skate. Although he is unlikely to play tonight, it’s a good sign to see him skating, it means his shoulder injury isn’t serious. Along with Anisimov, Gross states that John Scott (unsurprisingly), Anton Stralman, and Jeff Woywitka will be...

Anisimov Injury Likely Not a Shoulder Separation

Andrew Gross at the Bergen Record reports that Artem Anisimov was seen after last night's loss to Colorado without his left arm in a sling, which is a good indication his shoulder is not separated....great news. With the Rangers lack of scoring recently they need to get Anisimov back sooner rather than later....Rangers seem to be very cautious with injuries this season so we...

Anisimov Could Be Out Long Term

Andrew Gross at the Bergen Record reports that there has been no update on Artem Anisimov's injury, but if it's a shoulder injury, which it looked like it was, a long-term absence is certainly a concern....a long term Anisimov injury should pretty much guarantee Kreider signing with the Rangers for the playoffs. Although with the way the secondary scoring has been struggling...

Anisimov’s Precarious Rangers Future

When the same thing happens season after season you begin to wonder whether a player truly is developing or whether he has already hit his ceiling. Artem Anisimov, every year with the Rangers, has had spells where he looks like a great piece for the future and then periods when he disappears. Anisimov is pointless in twelve (yes, twelve) games prior to Thursday’s Penguins game...

Video: Anisimov Gun Celebration Enrages Tampa Bay

The New York Rangers broke a 1-1 second period tie Thursday night with a beautiful passing display that ended with Artem Anisimov having a wide open net while shorthanded. That was the good part of the play. Following his depositing of the gimme goal, Anisimov's fifth of the season, he proceeded to flip the stick around as if it were a gun, drop to a knee and simulate firing...

Quick Rangers/Sens Wrap Up: The Anisimov Show

We had some technical difficulties with the blog last night, so we were unable to post a recap right after the game. Artem Anisimov was the star of last night’s game, even if he didn’t get the Broadway hat. Here are your truncated bullets: Anisimov forced the turnover on the first goal, forced another turnover and got the puck to the net on the second goal, and made...
