RYAN MCDONAGH RUMORS

Devils/Rangers: Will Game 4 Drama Carry Into Game 5?

Ryan McDonagh (R) and Adam Henrique (L) got the extra curricular activity started early in Game 4. Hate is such a strong word, but it’s appropriate. It’s pretty clear the New Jersey Devils and the New York Rangers will not be going to a dinner and movie together on any off days.

Is Ryan McDonagh the Rangers best defenseman?

With Dan Girardi tiring in the last few games (not a criticism) and Marc Staal clearly still struggling for consistency following his return, has Ryan McDonagh emerged as the Rangers best defenseman?

Brooks: McDonagh Was A Throw-In

That title is a bit surprising, eh? Larry Brooks of the NY Post has the scoop that now ex-GM of the Montreal Canadiens Bob Gainey wasn’t all that impressed with Ryan McDonagh when they went to scout him in Wisconsin after drafting him 12th overall in the 2007 draft. According to Brooks, the Canadiens expected more: The Canadiens apparently expected McDonagh to become a dominant...

How Much Would You Pay Ryan McDonagh?

Usually anything written about Ryan McDonagh should begin with a big, passionate thank you to Bob Gainey but not this time as we’re past that (thanks Bob). We’re at the point now where McDonagh is becoming an integral part of the Rangers line-up, so much so that well ahead of schedule it’s a legitimate point in time to begin to discuss what McDonagh will be worth to the Rangers...
