What the trade market needs is more teams to declare themselves sellers and out of the playoff race. But it’s still too early for that. That’s what happens with so...

An Epic Comeback Win Over Columbus, But Questions Now Surface
Photo Credit: John Russell/NHLI via Getty Images
Down 4-1 before the end of the first period and already giving up a hat trick, Nashville was in trouble with 40 minutes left to play. However, clawing back from two 3-goal deficits down 4-1 and 5-2, the Predators came back to tie the game with less than 4 minutes remaining in regulation and won it with only 9 seconds to go in the game...

General manager Scott Howson the news Saturday afternoon, via Twitter no less, and it is a move that shores up the Blue Jackets' top six after left-winger Kristian Huselius underwent surgery for a torn pectoral muscle.

Another mediocre Euro flees to KHL, will anyone follow? (I’m looking at you Prospal)
By KYLE BAUER
Now some guys are getting desperate, or maybe not. The Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) –born out of the Russian Super League– has mined European NHL talent for the past four seasons in an attempt to boost their notoriety and talent pool.
So far, the crop has been mostly veteran defectors- Sergei Fedorov, Alexei Yashin, Viktor Kozlov, Jozef Stumpel, Marcel...

Rangers’ Questions For You
With the off-season underway for the New York Rangers, I figured that now would be a great time to reach out to you, the readers, to get your thoughts on the questions below.
Please feel free to leave as many comments as you would like.
- What should be the Rangers’ No. 1 goal during the off-season?

With New York Rangers eliminated, the future is the main focus
On Saturday afternoon, the New York Rangers were knocked out of contention for Lord Stanley’s Cup by the Washington Capitals, the second time in the past three years. Now, the focus is on the future and it’s as bright as it’s been in a long time. This team is being built the right way after years of high priced free agent busts and trades that didn’t work...

New York Rangers sneak into playoffs thanks to ‘Canes loss
The New York Rangers had to sit around and wait awhile on this Saturday in April. They already did they part and everything was out of their hands. After New York defeated the New Jersey Devils 5-2 in their last game of the regular season, Carolina had to lose in order for the Rangers to avoid missing the playoffs for the second straight year. The Hurricanes were crushed on their...

2010-11 Game 76: New York Rangers 1, Boston Bruins 0
For the second time in three games, the New York Rangers scored only one goal and for the second time in three games, that was good enough for a win. Henrik Lundqvist set a new career high with his league leading 11th shutout in a 1-0 victory over the Northeast leading Boston Bruins Saturday afternoon. Rookie Derek Stepan struck 6:39 into the game for the only goal of the contest...

Rangers Win By Playing Rangers’ hockey
In today’s 7-0 white-washing of the Philadelphia Flyers, the New York Rangers won by playing the kind of hockey that made them so successful earlier on in the season.
They forechecked, they hit, they blocked shots, they allowed their goaltender Henrik Lundqvist to see the puck, they cleared rebounds and they got timely goal scoring. Normally, this is a good recipe of success...

The Rangers came into Sunday’s nationally televised game losers of all four meetings against their scheduled opponent, the Philadelphia Flyers. New York also recently lost three straight games at home in the span of a week. Philly was also in a little murky situation, losing three straight games overall entering the game, making people wonder if they’re losing focus....

2010-11 Game 67: New York Rangers 4, Ottawa Senators 1
Getting away from the NYC spotlight did something to this team. After three sluggish games on home ice (all losses), the Rangers easily defeated the Senators 4-1 on Friday night. If the Rangers don’t want to be watching the playoffs from home for the second straight year, they need more games like this.
New York scored the first four goals of the game before Ottawa broke the...

2010-11 Game 65: Buffalo Sabres 3, New York Rangers 2
The beginning of March did not start off on the right foot, as the Rangers dropped their second straight game Tuesday night against the Buffalo Sabres, 3-2. One of the only good moments for New York was defenseman Bryan McCabe getting his first point with the team. Other than that, just another head-shaker for Blueshirts Nation.
Once again, the Rangers fell into an early deficit...

Are New York Rangers hurting from returning players?
Sounds like a silly concept, right? A team is actually worse for getting their best players back. In the midst of a five-game losing streak, I’m wondering that as a fan. They have an overtime loss (which is a point), but that’s still a loss in my mind. But what if I tell you that it may not be as crazy as it seems?
During the Rangers’ last game before the All...

After an emotional loss to the Penguins on Tuesday night, the schedule seemed to have gotten easier when the Rangers welcomed the Devils to town. The team with the league’s worst record is a team you’re supposed to beat. But once again, that didn’t happen. The Rangers continued to play bad against bad teams by losing to their division rival 3-2 on Thursday night...

Getty ImagesNow fifty-three games into the regular season, the New York Rangers are in seventh place in the Eastern Conference standings with a record of 29-20-4. They have been streaky as of late, but looking at the year as a whole, have been able to stay on a stable pace despite battling through a multitude of injuries. Now that they are starting to get healthy again, with players...

Dubinsky out at least 3 weeks
Make more room on the injury list! The Rangers will be without center Brandon Dubinsky for 3-4 weeks with a stress fracture in his left leg. The 24-year old leads the team in goals (17), assists (21), and points (38). Also on the shelf for the Blueshirts are Vaclav Prospal, Erik Christensen, Ryan Callahan, and Alex Frolov. Dubinsky has provided a lot of offense this year, but also...

Add another name to the long list of injured players for the New York Rangers. Winger Alex Frolov will miss the remainder of the season due to a torn ACL in his right knee after Blues forward Brad Winchester fell on his leg in yesterday’s 2-1 win.

Jan Levine: Frolov Out for Remainder of Season with Torn ACL
Alexander Frolov, injured in the Rangers 2-1 win Saturday over St. Louis, suffered a torn ACL, damaged MCL and meniscus in his right knee that will sideline him for the year.
In a season of injures, Vaclav Prospal, Chris Drury, Erik Christensen and Ryan Callahan, add another forward to that list in Frolov. Though he wasn't really scoring, the Rangers can't keep losing...
What The F$%& Happened to the Phantoms?
When Comcast-Spectacor decided it was time to demolish The Spectrum, one of the casualties was the Philadelphia Phantoms. Not that I ever went to many games, but I kept tabs on the team.

They allowed 16 goals in the first four games, including six to the rival Islanders. That's not...
