Conditioning Stint Best Thing for Wolski
Bruce Berlett of CTWhale.com was able to speak with Wojtek Wolski about why he decided to accept the conditioning assignment..."In the end, I knew it was probably the best thing for me. I've got to get on the ice. I've got to play. Practicing and skating is great, but it's nothing like the game. And if your team is in first place and you're winning every single...

Wolski, Woywitka Looking to Make Most of Time with Whale
By Bruce Berlet
Taking one step back in hopes of making two forward is a familiar refrain.
Left wing Wojtek Wolski and defenseman Jeff Woywitka are hoping that theory works in their quests to get more ice time with the New York Rangers or another NHL team.
Wolski and Woywitka accepted requests from the Rangers on Thursday for two-week conditioning assignments with the Connecticut...

Did Christensen’s Trade Save Wolski?
When the Rangers traded Erik Christensen yesterday, they dumped a spare forward for some much needed AHL help in Casey Wellman. The Rangers had 14 forwards on the roster, including Wojtek Wolski, who had just been shipped to Connecticut on a two week conditioning stint due to lack of playing time. When Wolski returns, he returns as the 13th forward, not the 14th forward.

Why the Rangers Need To Cut Loose Wolski
The Rangers need to get rid of Wojtek Wolski one way or the other. His presence may not be that of a locker room cancer but his salary, tantalising ability and mere presence make him a distraction and a temptation for the coaching staff.
Wolski clearly cannot play consistently in Tortorella’s system. A few good shifts here and there are simply not enough for someone with his skill...

Pregame: Tortorella, in brief…
Hello, everyone. Glad to be with you again. I’m in for Carp at tonight’s game, still 26 years young.
I had been told/warned John Tortorella’s pregame chats with the media were brief. Well, safe to say there will be ovations during tonight’s “State of the Union” that last longer than this one. Much longer, in fact.
The tape is 50 seconds total...
