BRANDON MASHINTER RUMORS
Getting Mad About Mashinter's Great Play With Whale
If you follow the blog, you know how much I pumped up Brandon Mashinter before the Rangers recalled him last month.
So you can imagine my disappointment with his lackluster performance during his four games with the Blueshirts. He looked tentative and lacked the aggressiveness that made him a standout with the Whale. To be honest he just looked overwhelmed by the NHL experience...
Rangers Recall Brandon Mashinter From Whale
NEW YORK, February 18, 2013 –New York Rangers President and General Manager Glen Sather announced today that the club has recalled forward Brandon Mashinter from the Connecticut Whale of the American Hockey League (AHL).
Mashinter, 24, has tallied a point in each of the last three contests (two goals, one assist), including the game-winning goals on Friday against Portland...
Darroll Powe places on IR, Rangers recall Brandon Mashinter
It was only a matter of time before we heard the bad news on Darroll Powe, who took a nasty fall yesterday after a collision with Matt Hendricks. Powe has been placed on IR (note: not LTIR) and the Rangers have recalled Brandon Mashinter from Connecticut to replace him on the roster.
It will be interesting to see how coach John Tortorella deploys Mashinter –likely on the fourth...
Mashinter Watch: Not a Good Return to Whale
After seeing no NHL game action in the less than 24 hours he was recalled by the Rangers, Brandon Mashinter returned to the Whale Tuesday night with a thud. Mashinter was held scoreless including being stopped on a shootout attempt during the Whale's 4-3 shootout loss to Albany.
Mashinter was also a -2 and only register one shot on goal.
He now has 3g, 4a and is a -2...
Mashinter returned to Whale
In a bit of a surprising move, the Rangers have returned forward Brandon Mashinter to the Whale, per Dan Rosen. It’s surprising because Mashinter was just recalled yesterday. Guess that means the “Stu Bickel as a forward” experiment is still ongoing for tonight’s game at least. Unless of course Chris Kreider is good to go.

Miller & Mashinter Recalled; Ferrieri Re-Assigned
BREAKING: The #NYR have recalled JT Miller and Brandon Mashinter from @ctwhale, & reassign Benn Ferriero to the Whale
— New York Rangers (@NYRangers) February 4, 2013
...looks like the Rangers were reading my "Mashinter Watch." While his call-up doesn't surprise me, the Miller one does. Just reading recent tweets from Rangers website beat writer Jim Cerny...
Rangers call up J.T. Miller/Brandon Mashinter; Send Benn Ferriero down
In the second big move of the day, the Rangers have called up forwards J.T. Miller and Brandon Mashinter from the CT Whale, and returned Benn Ferriero to the AHL. Despite impressing in his debut, Ferriero saw reduced time on the ice, and with the acquisition of Darroll Powe, the writing may have been on the wall for the forward. This won’t be his last trip to the NHL.
In eight...
Mashinter Watch: Scores In Whale Loss Last Night
Yesterday, I posted about how the newly acquired CT Whale player Brandon Mashinter could be someone who sparks this Rangers team. While they obviously didn't need him last night, the fact that John Tortorella doesn't feel comfortable giving Mike Rupp (4:28) or Stu Bickel (3:27) more than five minutes of ice time, means there's still a need for a fourth line energy guy...
Rangers trade Tommy Grant to San Jose for Brandon Mashinter
Tonight, the Rangers made a minor deal, sending AHLer Tommy Grant and a 2014 seventh-round draft choice to the San Jose Sharks for LW Brandon Mashinter.
Mashinter, 24, stands 6-foot-4, 230 lbs. He has posted two goals and three assists in 30 games this season with San Jose’s AHL affiliate, the Worcester Sharks. Last season, Mashinter tallied 16 goals and 17 assists in 65 games...
Mashinter re-signs with Sharks, NHL CBA negotiations proceed
Per Renaud P. Lavoie, Brandon Mashinter has re-signed with the Sharks. That’s a good thing since David Pollak had him penciled in among the three maybes for the fourth line. The two-way contract is for one year at $550,000. Also on that theoretical line is John McCarthy. I’m very happy about that.
Captain’s Practice at Sharks Ice officially started Monday. Thomas...
