@thomasjalbano

My name is Tom Albano and I cover the New York Rangers. I covered the team back in the 2015-16 season for a blog called Black and Blueshirts before the site network closed down. In addition, I'm a combat sports (i.e. MMA, boxing, etc) contributor for FIGHT SPORTS and host a weekly sports talk podcast called The Unspoken Podcast.

Henrik Lundqvist: By the Numbers for No. 30

November 21st, 2019 Perhaps Henrik Lundqvist, the beloved veteran New York Rangers goaltender, isn't pleased with how his season has gone so far, telling the New York Post, "I feel like there’s been one goal a game I could stop that I haven’t..." (from ‘Henrik Lundqvist’s self-review: ‘I need to do better’’, New York Post – 11/19/19). Yet,...
Rangers Need a Productive Chris Kreider

Rangers Need a Productive Chris Kreider

November 4th, 2019 While things may be turning around after winning their last two games, the New York Rangers' season is not off to the strongest of starts. The team has shown flashes of good play, but some units have looked inefficient and some players are nonexistent. One player's performance is parallel to the Rangers' start, winger Chris...

3 Rangers Who May Be Dealt by the Trade Deadline

October 12th, 2019 The New York Rangers had arguably one of the most praised offseasons in team history, let alone one of the best ones of the 2019 offseason. But it's clear there are still things needed to be done, still holes needed to be filled and cap space needed to be had. It's clear: anyone can and will be moved. Take for instance what happened...
Rangers and Tony DeAngelo Need One Another

Rangers and Tony DeAngelo Need One Another

September 19th, 2019 With the New York Rangers preseason games now underway, defenseman Tony DeAngelo is the lone restricted free agent that has not agreed on a deal with the team. If the two sides don't come to terms, it's more than a shame for both parties. DeAngelo was a notable storyline for the Rangers last season, going from aplayer who left many...

Rangers' 2019-20 Storylines: Rivalries & Matchups

August 28th, 2019 We're about a month away from the start of the 2019-20 NHL season, and it wouldn't be an overstatement to say it's one of the most looked-forward-to by New York Rangers fans in recent history. After a memorable offseason with big additions, the Rangers have plenty of games and storylines to watch out for. The tone for this offseason...
Rangers 2018-19 Report Cards: Tony DeAngelo

Rangers 2018-19 Report Cards: Tony DeAngelo

August 25th, 2019 The term "growing pains" can be an accurate one to describe the New York Rangers' 2018-19 season, if not its recent seasons in general. And that term could also sum up defenseman Tony DeAngelo's career in a Rangers sweater thus far. Through his first three seasons with the Sarnia Sting of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL), DeAngelo...
Rangers' 2018-19 Report Cards: Filip Chytil

Rangers' 2018-19 Report Cards: Filip Chytil

August 19th, 2019 Over the past couple of seasons, the New York Rangers' focus has been on a rebuild and youth movement, and more eyes than ever have fallen onto the team's recent top draft picks. One of these young men is Filip Chytil. After playing on several youth world teams for his native Czech Republic, Chytil was drafted 21st overall by the...
Comparing Rangers' Finnish Draft Picks to Kakko

Comparing Rangers' Finnish Draft Picks to Kakko

August 5th, 2019 Kaapo Kakko has all the hype in the world behind him entering his rookie season, and it might not take a lot to be the New York Rangers' best player drafted from Finland — so long as he plays up to hopes. Kakko was taken with the second-overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, and he comes with a lot of hype behind him after his...
