With the NHL trade deadline only a few days away, The Rangers have sent scouts NHL wide and have had many visit the confines of MSG. Even a few General Managers have stopped by the last few weeks, mainly old Rangers assistant G.M. Don Maloney, Toronto G.M. , and St. Louis G.M. along with their scouts  more

The offseason free agent signing of Kevin Hayes has been one of the highlights of this offseasons signings. The Rangers were in need of a third line center with the buyout of Brad Richards and his eventual signing with Chicago. The Rangers went on to sign ex-1st round Chicago pick Kevin Hayes for the max pay that was offered by a few NHL organizations as he picked the Rangers for their chance to return as a NHL Cup contender. So it was a sort of Richards for Hayes exchange plus $5.5 million cap savings.  That may turn out to be as good a deal as Gomez for Ryan McDonagh or DelZotto for Kevin Klein  more

When Rangers all-world goalie Henrik Lundqvist went down with his neck injury there was alot of panic in Rangerland. The Rangers organization felt confident in putting the Stanley Cup finalist in his hands and with god cause. Last year when the Rangers were struggling, Cameron Talbot played while Lundqvist fine tuned his game once he was called upon. The Rangers have always had faith in their goaltending no matter which one is between the pipes with good reason as the Rangers are in a battle for a shot at the Metro Division title and with Cam as the man, these Rangers are 4-1-1  more

UPDATE***** Just reported by the Rangers is that the injury that happened when Lundqvist was struck in the neck with caused an injury worse than first thought. It is estimated that Lundqvist will be out approximately a month. The question now is can Cam Talbot carry the full load of games with Mackenzie Skapskie as the backup or do the Rangers try to make a deal for a depth goalie such as Enroth? The Rangerswill move this roster decision to the forefront and put any deal for Vermette/Hanzal on the back burner for the time being  more

As the 2nd half of the season has begun, it seems like the Rangers are having a tough time putting their foot back on the gas to get going. Granted that they have started against two of the best teams in the Eastern Conference in the Islanders and Canadiens, but the offense can't seem to buy one right now and are out of sinc. It is well known that the Rangers are scouting Toronto, Carolina, and Arizona as the key targets to get the piece or pieces needed to make a long playoff run.  It is clear to anyone following the Rangers that their #1 need is a faceoff specialist--this a must! The Rangers have been chasing the puck all season off the faceoff cirlce and is the only place on the ice that they are outplayed on a nightly basis. The other area of need is a defenseman that neither  John Moore nor Matt Hunwick can seem to lock down the spot  more
