Rookies Lead Win Over Devils’ Regulars, 4-3
by Mark Owens The preseason could not have started any better for the Rangers, as Brandon Dubinsky, Ryan Callahan and Daniel Girardi led a host of rookies to a 4-3 win over a veteran-heavy Devils team Friday night at MSG. Dubinsky and Girardi had two assists each and Callahan chipped in one goal and one assist. Veterans Martin Straka and Blair […]
The 3rd Line Question?
by Pete Robinson What to do, what to do? That is the question the Rangers staff is most likely mulling over. With 14 men sent a packing to Hartford, the Rangers have 37 players left on the sheet. Tonight we saw our boys in blue take on our cross the river rivals, the New Jersey […]
Previewing The Rangers: 2007-08
by James DeBerardine Hey all, if you are a visitor or member of the OTG forums you’re bound to know of me and my ideas, I thought I’d give an overview of what I feel the Rangers should do to be successful this season. More about me? I have been a member of OTG for […]
Training Camp – Left Wing
As with many of the other positions on the Rangers roster this year, the left wing presents Head Coach Tom Renney with a variety of options. There’s no doubt that the prize is of course playing alongside Jaromir Jagr on the top line. Over the past two seasons, Martin Straka has been a mainstay alongside Jagr and Michael Nylander. With […]

Training Camp – Right Wing
There’s no doubt that Jaromir Jagr will line up on the first line right wing position, and unlike last year when he was unable to train through the Summer due to the after effects of shoulder surgery, we expect him to come right out of the gate and dominate from the get go. On the second line Brendan […]
Direct Center
by Pete Robinson With training camp coming up, the Rangers are still in search of a third line center. This spot will split the Prucha – Callahan line, if it remains the same. There are many prospects who are vying for this spot; most notable are Blair Betts and Brandon Dubinsky. Betts, who has centered the 4th spot […]
Hossa Accepts Deal
With just three more days until his scheduled arbitration hearing, Marcel Hossa and the Rangers have agreed to a one year, $780,000 contract. The contract is a modest raise over last year’s $600,000 figure and is reflective of the desire for the Rangers to continue to give the benefit of the doubt to the inconsistent forward. Hossa […]
Off To The Races
by Matt Waxman When the clock struck twelve, twelve PM Eastern Standard Time that is, the gates were opened. The bell had sounded. The jockeys, with a swift contraction of their forearm muscles, disturbed the repose of their horses and sent them into a gallop. Some horses are best suited for a full sprint right […]
The Cap
by Pete Robinson With Avery’s and Hossa’s arbitration date coming up where does this leave the Rangers? Over the past week, the Rangers have re-signed Shanny and Hank. According to the cap, that leaves approximately 3.7 million in cap space to sign Avery and Hossa. All I can think is, ‘What is Glen up to?’ […]
