Free Agency Opens Up Tomorrow
Friday October 12th at 12pm Eastern marks the opening up of the Free Agency period, and the Rangers are still looking to make some changes to their roster. While the second center position remains one of the areas of focus, the Rangers now have to look at options for addressing their short term needs on […]
Rangers May Wing-It
It’s likely that Jeff Gorton is going to at least try to make some moves this weekend at the NHL draft, but it remains to be seen what he actually accomplishes. With John Davidson now firmly in place as President of the New York Rangers, and the second overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, Gorton […]
Six More Cut From Camp
David Quinn further trimmed his roster today, sending four players and two try-outs down to the Hartford Wolf Pack ahead of tonight’s final preseason game.

The players to miss out include forward invitee Bobby Butler and veteran Mats […]

The Rangers are in full rebuild mode, at least that’s true if you read the papers (Rangers Embark On All-Out Rebuild, Rangers Went All-In, and of course the overused Fire-Sale, then there’s of course the back page of the New York Post). Even the more sedate NY Times gets in on the action with the Complete Overhaul. Finally the ever engaging […]

There were no specific surprises other than perhaps that the two 18-year-old Ranger first round draft picks and undrafted free agent forward Vinni Lettieri were […]
Projected Line-up Against Devils
Both of the Rangers’ 2017 first round picks will be in the line-up for Game 2 tonight against the Devils. Filip Chytil – pronounced HEE-tal – looks to have earned a chance to show his offensive prowess, centering veterans Mats Zuccarello and Chris Kreider. Having just turned 18, Chytil will be thrust into the forefront in his first professional […]
