LATEST STORIES FROM THE RIVALRY

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...

Sporcle...

Anyone ever heard of Sporcle? It's a site that gives you blank slates and tells you to name stuff. For instance, it gives you a blank table with years listed and you have to name Pixar movies. You type them in, they go next to the year, and when you give up, you click "Give...

I'd apologize for the lack of updates lately if there was anything going on that was actually worth reporting. Sadly, that isn't the case. We're doing what we can, but we won't resort to filler. Thankfully, the Islanders sent me (and everyone else on their mailing list...

Prospal...

Montreal_canadiens_v_db3b
If Vinny Prospal actually does become 1st-line center and has a pretty decent year, it will be a huge bargain.A "pretty decent year" for a 1st-line center in the Rangers' eyes is probably somewhere over 60 points, seeing as Scott Gomez had 58 last year (in 77 games)....

My Letter To The Town Of Hempstead

Dear Sir or Madam,Before I start, I would first like to thank you for offering this forum to make my voice heard. I would also like to thank everyone who has helped get the Lighthouse Project to this point. As a 27-year-old who has spent plenty of time questioning his future on Long...

New_york_rangers_8401
No, his real name isn't Vincent. He isn't Italian; he's Czech.With the signing of Vaclav "Vinny" Prospal, the Rangers have added one more 3rd/4th line player, to join Artem Anisimov, Tyler Arnason, Donald Brashear, Enver Lisin, Aaron Voros, Brian Boyle, and anyone...

Wait, The NHL Is On iTunes?!?

I was on iTunes earlier today, looking for some kids TV shows to put on my iPod so my daughter doesn't flip out during a long car trip this weekend. I found what I was looking for - Yo Gabba Gabba and the Wonder Pets, in case you were wondering - but I also found something else...

Any Publishers Out There?...

As a 25-year old male (I am hesitant to ever refer to myself as a "man") with great taste in movies, it was only natural that I would see Julie & Julia on opening weekend.Apparently in real life, this girl cooked like 500 Julia Child recipes in 365 days, made a blog about...

With Jeremy Roenick retiring today, let's look back at the 1988 NHL Entry Draft and just marvel at how amazing it has turned out.As per usual, the New York teams did nothing exciting. The Rangers didn't have a 1st round pick (trying to track down what happened to it with no...

Zherdev Gone...

After Nik Zherdev was awarded a $3.9M, one-year contract by an arbitrator, Glen Sather had this to say."[He] will score as many goals in 2009-10 in a Rangers uniform as he did in April of 2009 in a Rangers uniform. None."Okay, that is a fake quote. I admit it. But, true,...

Tomorrow's Lighthouse Hearing

We've made a conscious effort to stay away from the Lighthouse stuff on this blog. We're not a political blog. We like to talk hockey in these parts, not economic impact statements or zoning guidelines. Nobody wants to hear us get on our high horses and spout political rhetoric...

Tanguay; Phoenix...

Montreal_canadiens_v_f293
Yes, we are still alive. However, with temperatures in the mid 80s and rain escaping us (save for the lightning storms we are currently having), nothing has been going on in the hockey world, and we've been on mini-hiatus.Two things of note though. With the money saved on Nik Zherdev...

Philadelphia_flyers_v_3d32
Those who were worried about the Islanders' goaltending situation can now begin worrying even more about the health of Rick DiPietro. The Islanders signed former Philadelphia Flyer and Buffalo Sabres goaltender Martin Biron to a one-year contract today. Terms of the deal were not...
