Rangers Dump Montoya in Trading For Depth
The Rangers made two trades at the deadline today that have to be considered little more than bolstering the depth at the lower part of their NHL roster and in the AHL. They finally (mercifully) ended the Marcel Hossa experiment,...

Coyotes Trade Sjostrom, Gratton & LeNevue to Rangers
The Phoenix Coyotes, who most everyone felt would stand pat at the trade deadline, essentially did despite a five-player deal of fringe players. The key players in the deal are both underperforming wingers who average around 10 goals per season. The Coyotes acquire left-wing Marcel Hossa and give...

Mid Season Report Cards: The Bottom Six
Today we are going to be talking about our unheralded, but no less vital bottom six forwards. Prior to Tortorella’s arrival, the Rangers bottom six was typically composed of too many wannabe skill players like Matt Cullen, Marcel Hossa, etc. The last few years we finally started to value players who understood that their role is to forecheck, backcheck, hit, score dirty goals,...

Rangers Deal Montoya, Li'l Hossa
I'm not sure if there were still any fans out there that believed Montoya was considered a blue-chip prospect - especially after the former first-round pick lost his job in Hartford this season to the unheralded Miika Wiikman. Nevertheless, this is a blow to a franchise that, at the very least, expected to be able to spin the highly-touted Montoya for a valuable asset in the...

A few updates from the Garden, where moments ago, John Amirante was again warming up in the bathroom:

Marcel Hossa & Sean Avery = Rangers win 5-0?
Rangers won big, 5-0 over the Lightning, in their first game with Avery acclimated to the team. Team has an easy schedule for the next few games so it makes for a nice time for them to pull themselves back into the race. The team certainly has the talent, they were leading the Atlantic before the Devils hit their stride. The Rangers aren't a cup contender, but don't be surprised...

Center Stage on Broadway
Do you believe in magic? Well Rangers fans probably do after their team somehow managed to fit the salaries of two of the biggest free-agents under cap-constraints.
What will concern the Rangers the rest of the summer is going to be how they can fit the rest of their restricted free agents and Shanahan under the cap. The Rangers gave Chris Drury a five-year $35.25 million deal...

VonBudel helps Rangers halt skids, beat Devils 2-0
Nigel Dawes, yes, Nigel Dawes broke the Rangers' scoreless losing streak. Dawes scored two goals last night against the Devils and Lundqvist stopped all 22 shots he faced. The Rangers hadn't won in 5 games, hadn't scored a goal in 126 minutes and hadn't tallied an even strength goal in 182 minutes. I'd like to attribute this change of fortune to myself, as the Dawes scored his...

Hossa Trade Analysis
Ray Shero and the Pittsburgh Penguins certainly surprised many of us with the last minute deal today, especially given the pre-trade day belief that the Penguins were not looking for a blockbuster deal. It would be hard to refute that snatching Marian Hossa, one of the league's top wingers, to play alongside one of the league's most talented centers is anything but a blockbuster...

Russian Prospects Head Back To Russia
The NHL has been slowly losing talented players to the KHL. The top eight scorers in the KHL are all ex-NHL players. All of them (Maxim Sushinsky, Alexei Yashin, Alexander Radulov, Sergei Zinovjev, Marcel Hossa, Mattias Weindhandl, Patrick Thoresen and Aleksey Morozov) are players who easily hold down NHL jobs. For the KHL to experience future growth, they must...
