Report Card: After 10
Ten games into the season, 12.2% of the season completed, and the Rangers sit at 6-2-2, amongst the best in the league with 14 points. On the surface it’s been a dream start for Rangers Head Coach Gerard Gallant, in that his team has put the wins up against teams it should beat, for the most […]
Rangers Not Offensive
So much for opening night fireworks right? The vaunted toughening of Rangers looked more like the same old same old as we watched the re-tooled line-up get manhandled by Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals. Well at least Tom Wilson didn’t get up to any mischief I guess. Well at least they’re hitting more right? The […]
Lundkvist To Make Debut
Gerard Gallant has made three line-up changes for tonight’s home opener against the Dallas Stars. Igor Shesterkin will make his season debut, replacing Alexandar Georgiev who allowed 5 goals on 27 shots in last night’s 5-1 loss to the Capitals. While Gallant implied he would alternate goaltenders for back to back games, it was still a surprise decision that […]
Line up Set For Season Opener
Rangers have forecast their line-up for tonight, with the exception of the goaltender – who will be shared during warm-ups. With a game tomorrow night, it would seem the expectation currently is to use one guy tonight, and the other tomorrow at the home opener against Dallas. In terms of surprises, there are none from […]
Kravtsov Requests Trade
There’s been plenty of drama around former first round pick – 2018, 9th overall – since he was drafted by the Rangers, and it continued today with a report that the Rangers have given the 22 year old Russian permission to talk to other teams in order to facilitate a trade. Kravtsov was one of […]

Tonight will feature some of the remaining players battlign for inclusion in the final roster, as well as a few looks at different combinations. Up in the forward ranks, […]
First Lines Look As Expected
About a couple of weeks ago, we took a shot at projecting lines they’d look at in camp, and it looks at least for now like they’ll be the starting point for camp. With camp under way today, the first set of lines got a run in scrimmage, with the team looking the same as […]
Camp Opens With Sixty
Training Camp gets under way tomorrow with players reporting to the Rangers facilities in Greenburgh, NY for their physicals, before hitting the ice for the first time on Thursday. In all, sixty players have been invited to camp, with all contracted players expected to attend. With COVID still a prominent factor, those prospects set to […]
Kreider Third Liner
Winger Chris Kreider is going into his first full season since turning 30 in April, having played 573 regular season games and 78 in the post season across his 10 year career to date. He’s signed for another six years – including this one – and has a no move clause through to the 2023-24 season. The […]
Jack. Of All Trades?!?
As 12:00pm Eastern drew closer, there was plenty of anticipation from Ranger fans expecting today to be the day that Rangers GM Chris Drury made a move to complete his offseason makeover of the roster. Six hours later and the sum of the day was four free agent signings headlined by the signing of third pair defenseman Patrik […]
