MICHAL ROZSIVAL NEWS

Rangers Up 2-0 vs. Caps

I’m not sure what’s going on here. I’m a little confused. Are these the same New York Rangers I’ve watched all year? Is that really Wade Redden, the poster boy for nightmarish free agent contracts, and Michal Rozsival looking like a top-notch #1 defensive pair...

Rozsival rolling for Rangers

When Michal Rozsival broke into the NHL with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 1999-00, he wasn't anyone's idea of a bona fide number one blueliner. But at age 29, the 6-2, 210-pound Czech has come into his own. HockeyAdventure.com caught up with Rozsival after a 3-0 New York Rangers...

Hot Stove: Rangers Rumors

Jagr13
It's looking like any move the Rangers make this off-season is going to have to wait until after Jaromir Jagr has decided what he wants to do. That's because general manager Glen Sather has a man-crush on the 36-year-old winger and doesn't want to mess with the team...

Just Brainstorming Here...

I'm back from Las Vegas (mid-September and still 100 degrees!) and I received a 2-for-1 in the week I was gone. Not only was Dany Heatley traded, but Phil Kessel was as well, leaving September only for training camp, and no drama.I'm just brainstorming, but let's say for...

Ridiculous...

We all know that "coach" Tom Renney likes to keep lines intact after a win. Well, apparently he has given up on the team, because he isn't tampering with them after a 10-2 "game." Okay, that's not entirely true. If the beat writers are to be believed (and...

Extended Preseason - Rangers@Penguins Post Game Thoughts…

Boston_bruins_v_2bb6
From my point of view this game was lost from the moment it was put on the schedule. I just had very low expectations for this game because of the tour de force of obstacles they had to overcome. The Rangers have 3 rookies playing their first season in the lineup. The Rangers were...

Blueshirts' Blueline Is Getting Crowded

The newly acquired Hutchinson joins Fedor Tyutin, Dan Girardi, Marek Malik, Michal Rozsival, Paul Mara, Thomas Pock, and Jason Strudwick as defenseman currently under contract for New York. Top prospect Marc Staal is ready to make the jump to the NHL by all accounts, and it's difficult...

Guess Who Just Made The Team? - Rangers@Bruins Post Game Thoughts…

I’m with Joe on this one. After the last 2 games, Artem Anisimov most definitely made the team barring him punching Torts in the face for no apparent reason. In one of the more dominating games I’ve seen the Rangers play, the kids stood out by miles, while the vets continue...

Either Way - Rangers@Capitals Post Game Thoughts…

Phoenix_coyotes_v_5537
I’ve been a little hesitant to even do a post game wrap for this one because the immediate reaction after watching the game against the Caps was to absolutely roast the hell out of this team for their piss poor effort in the first 2 periods when they showed they can clearly not...

Tom Renney Would Be Proud...

It appears I'm alone over on this website as Islanders Writer Bryan celebrates the birth of Baby #2. He doesn't answer any of his texts, no matter how funny I am, or how hilarious the picture I send him is. And no, rumors the baby being named Avery Henrika are greatly blown...

It Makes Some Sense To A Point

New_york_islanders_9b77
The New York Rangers continue what to many of their fans appears to be a hoarding of defensive prospects by signing Sam Klassen on Monday. To many the addition seems a bit puzzling but after looking closer at the situation as a whole it makes a big of sense what the Rangers are doing...

I try not to be one of "those fans" - you know, the type who sulks and glooms and says the team is horrible after a loss, but they're the first one to chant "We Want the Cup" after a convincing win.However, tonight was a good game. The difference between Edmonton...

Game 20: 11/17/07: Penguins 3 - Rangers 4 OT

The Penguins squandered a 2-goal lead on home ice last night, eventually losing in overtime to the New York Rangers 3-4 in overtime. Early in the first, with the Ranger's on the power play, Maxime Talbot blocked a shot from the blue line. The rebound bounced to Sidney Crosby...

Disaster in Montreal...

Jeez, do they really miss Blair Betts that much? I will be quick tonight. Since the Rangers didn't show up to play, I shouldn't show up to write much about it. Nigel Dawes and Petr Prucha were the only highlights today, although Henrik Lundqvist didn't play bad. He just...

Ranger Fan...

Listen, I might rail against half of the Rangers 75% of the time on this website. I might not care if Wade Redden plays another game or is banished to the AHL for the rest of his career and ruins their blueline. I might not even care if Scott Gomez is traded to Detroit for a 7th round...

The Blueline...

For next season, which begins October 2nd in Pittsburgh, the Rangers currently have 4 defenseman with "guaranteed" spots. I put that in quotes because you never know who might get traded - let's hope - or injured - let's hope not - before then.We have: Wade Redden...

Is Tom Renney's Time Up?...

I was discussing Tom Renney with a native of the Czech Republic the other day (the one man from there I have ever met who was not on the Rangers in 2005-06). He said that Renney's time is up and he should be replaced. I said that we should give him to the end of the season, partly...
