Wednesday - February 10th
Bob Mackenzie was on the intermission tonight in the Bruins - Rangers game and said that there are still teams interested in Tony DeAngelo, but that maybe it'll take a little distance from his recent incident for a deal to get made.
Part of the reported hesitation has been over potential backlash from the fanbase and local media to an acquisition from prospective teams, and with time, any heat would be mitigated a little.
No doubt things will mellow a little over time, but if you're a team/GM willing to make the move, then you're probably going to have to deal with a certain level of backlash, should you make the acquisition...as well as risk

2020 1st Round Pick Braden Schneider signed a three year deal |
Posted by Toby Ivey ≡ 12:11:55 PM - March 4, 2021
There were rumors before the shortened season started, that the Rangers were looking to sign their "other" first round pick from 2020, defenseman Braden Schneider, to a pro contract. Things couldn't be worked out then, but yesterday the team officially announced that they have come to terms on a three year entry level contract that will begin next season. The 19 year old defender will be eligible to play for the Wolf Pack next season as a 20 year old, and while there's a chance he could compete in next year's training camp, it would seem likely that he'll start his pro career there. Back in October, the Rangers traded the 22nd overall pick (acquired from Carolina in exchange for Brady Skjei) and the 72nd overall pick in the third round to Calgary in exchange for the 19th overall pick, and a chance to select Schneider.

A tough situation just got a little more difficult, with news that rookie defenseman K'Andre Miller has been placed into the NHL's COVID protocol ahead of tonight's game against the Philadelphia Flyers. Since these same two teams hit the ice just six days ago, the Rangers have lost Jacob Trouba (thumb), Kaapo Kakko (COVID), Artemi Panarin (personal leave) and now Miller more

Miller and Panarin Out Tonight
|
Posted by Toby Ivey ≡ 11:35:19 AM - February 16, 2021
|
New York will be without both Artemi Panarin and K'Andre Miller tonight, as they meet the Devils in their first game since last Friday. Panarin was close to rejoining the team, but they have decided to hold him out another game, and likewise it appears Miller could be out just for tonight's game more

It's never is good timing when you lose your leading scorer to injury, but the Rangers will go into the rematch against the Boston Bruins tonight, without Artemi Panarin. Coming off a 3-2 OT loss on Wednesday, to make it two losses in two games after a modest 3-0-1 stretch to cap off the first 10 games more

Ten In

After ten games, the Rangers sit at 10 points, with a 4-4-2 record, largely on the back of a 3-0-1 streak that has seen them overcome a slow start. After a clunker to open the season agains the Islanders, where they simply weren't prepared in a 4-0 loss, the Rangers stormed back to reverse the experience, handing their island neighbors a decisive 5-0 decision more

DeAngelo Situation Nearing Resolution
|
Posted by Toby Ivey ≡ 4:49:08 PM - February 1, 2021

There's a lot of words that can describe Tony DeAngelo, gifted, outspoken and passionate amongst them. In the relatively vanilla world of hockey, where players are coached on how to talk to reporters, and avoid saying almost anything, the 25 year old New Jersey native stands out more

Six games in and the Rangers are 1-4-1, having lost four straight, all by one goal. They're 1-7-1 since the COVID pandemic hit, including the three game sweep by the Carolina Hurricanes in the play-in round last August. All of those games played in stadiums without fans more

A Winning Combination

Tomorrow night's game against the Devils will feature the same line-up that defeated the New York Islanders 5-0 on Saturday. That means that Tony DeAngelo will again sit out, though he at least got to practice with the big team today more

Another 48 Hours

The Rangers were bad opening night, and really there was little to take from it. Igor Sheshterkin missed saves you'd expect him to make, and the offense, defense and special teams all looked ill prepared for the start of the season. Jack Johnson's penalty less than two minutes into the game set the tone for what would end up being eight times shorthanded on the night, with the Isles converting two of those chances more

New Faces On PK

With the departure of the likes of Jesper Fast, Greg McKegg and Marc Staal, it was obvious the Rangers were going to need some new faces on the PK. Who those faces will be have been revealed as the team closes out their camp ahead of tomorrow night's season opener against the New York Islanders more
