Cally Happy To Play Sabres
Ryan Callahan apparently likes winning games against the Buffalo Sabres. In 21 games he’s registered 7 goals and 4 assists, which isn’t all that impressive really. But when you look at the goals he has scored, five have turned out to be game winners, and the last two shootout wins have been decided by Callahan goals. […]
Rangers go down in season opener
The Rangers opened up their 2012-13 season with a 3-1 loss to the Boston Bruins, a game in which they had no answer for a well prepared team. The Bruins dictated the play for much of the game, and only a screen shot from Brad Richards managed to make it past goaltender Tukka Rask. For New York, […]
Season Preview
It took more than three months to get the season started finally, but now as we head to the eve of the season opener against the Bruins, there is plenty of optimism around, and one goal in mind: win the Cup. With 34 fewer games this year, and an abbreviated camp and no preseason, it’s […]
Rebound Time
Scolded, benched and forgiven all in one night. Does anyone expect anything but a “A” game from Brad Richards, in the land of Cactaceae. While not totally responsible for a rather feeble team effort in St. Louis. Richards has a duty to lead the way, and eliminate the word “slumping” from creeping into Ranger adjectives. He and his mates must […]

Montreal: A Tough Place To Win
The Rangers go into tonight’s game with Montreal looking to extend their winning streak to eight games, but they face a team – and building – that they’ve struggled with in recent years. The Rangers have won just three of their last ten games at the home of Les Habitants, and one of those was in a […]
Homeward Bound
This Thursday the Rangers will finally get to do something they haven’t done so far this season – play a game on home ice. It’s been an up and down start to the season, but what could easily have been an unmitigated disaster has proven to be an above par showing. In the seven games […]
Yo Gabba Gaborik
by Jamy Baron Zero goals and an injury three games into the season. This describes Marian Gaborik at the beginning of last season. Four goals and instant chemistry with Brad Richards describes Marian Gaborik so far this season, which is only five games in. If you’ve been watching the Rangers this season you would know that Gaborik is back in business. […]
More Line Changes?
The Rangers had a day off yesterday, but were back at practice today albeit with a few exceptions. Sean Avery was officially assigned to the Connecticut Whale early this week, and reported for duty yesterday – Bergen Record. Although, not exactly. Avery has a shoulder injury – New York Post – and while the MRI was negative, he’ll get […]
Rangers back in New York
The Rangers are back in New York, and it sounds like John Tortorella is much happier having put the European trip behind him. With a full week between games, he’s getting a chance to run the team through practice this week, a luxury he didn’t have as much in a hectic schedule to start the […]
