It sure saves me time when the Rangers lose continually - I just keep rehashing old points. Okay, I won't do that today, for sure, because I don't want to bore everyone like the Rangers bored me today. Yes, the first 8 or 9 minutes were good, and they have a furious - for them...

I laughed last night. Not only did I laugh, but I laughed hard. Last night was a pure definition of what New York Rangers hockey is like in the year 2009. And it's only February. I didn't want to write this last night as I needed a night to digest what went wrong, who to blame...

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...

In a month - or hell, even two days from now - this all could be seen as stupid speculation, but it's worth bringing up. Questions:1) Is it worth trading a player valuable to the Rangers for the next 5 seasons today to acquire Mats Sundin for (at most) a year and a half? 2)

At the Garden the other day, they were giving away "spots" for the Blueshirts Off Our Backs promotion. For those who don't know, that's after the last home game (April 9 vs. Flyers). They line everyone up on the ice, and the players come out in number order, take...

The reason I'm going to be brief about this particular preview is because what I saw of the Rangers through the preseason, and then what I saw in the back to back 2-1 wins over Tampa in Praha were enough to set my brain into a tailspina??A Totally dominated in the games that didn...

Once again, as for the past 2 years, rumors of Phoenix Coyotes D Ed Jovanovski going to the Rangers will not die. First off, the Rangers don't have cap space for his $6.5M contract. Second off, don't the Rangers already have a crappy D taking up $6.5M this year (and for the...

Okay, I’ll do them. I’ll do some predictions for next year, if only so I can do my yearly look back at preseason predictions to see how good everyone did. For the record, out of 6 last year, I came in 6th, and Isles’ Writer Bryan came in 2nd place.

Tonight's 2-1 loss to Florida in regulation (in a "4-point game," no less) goes to show that if you sign 2nd-line players to 1st-line money and 4th-D-men to 1st-pairing money, you won't be able to score goals or stop an onslaught, no matter who is behind the bench...

This should not have happend at Madison Square Garden. The roster and the problems for the Rangers could easily be fixed but Tom Renney and Glen Sather are in dream land right now. If they are banking on Mats Sundin signing for Patrick Rissmillers $1 million or if they got something...

Of course, no Ranger games will be played at the Coliseum next season. Got to save those for weeknights since they'll close-to-sell-out anyway. No need to waste a Saturday where you'll sell 14,000 tickets anyway, no matter who the opponent. I was right about that.I was wrong...

from Larry Brooks of the NY Post,
If it were up to John Tortorella, the Rangers would go into next Friday’s season-opener in Pittsburgh with only six defensemen on the roster. At least that’s what the coach claimed prior to last night’s 3-2 Garden exhibition victory over...

Considering how often Tom Renney switches up lines when they are clicking (Zherdev-Dubinsky-Voros, Drury-Callahan-Dawes, Gomez-Naslund, Cullen-Prucha-Ortmeyer), why does he never switch the power play lines up? How many times last year did Jaromir Jagr and Brendan Shanahan not score...
