Derek Stepan Emerging As Top-Flight Center For the New York Rangers

Derek Stepan Emerging As Top-Flight Center For the New York Rangers

March 27th, 2013 He's Step-an up. During a season where the overall offensive numbers haven't been as high as many hoped they would be, the Rangers' Derek Stepan is having a breakthrough campaign. The third-year center ranks second on the club in goals (10), assists (15), and points (25), trailing only linemate Rick Nash in each of those...
The Roller Coaster Ride Continues for the New York Rangers

The Roller Coaster Ride Continues for the New York Rangers

March 20th, 2013 The roller coaster ride that is the 2013 New York Rangers is now on an upswing, just days after a freefall had Blueshirt fans screaming for the axing of coaches, the trading of underachieving stars, and summer buyouts of underperforming veterans. That is Broadway in this lockout-shortened season where every game now has a life or...
Ryan O'Reilly and The Price For A True "Number-One" Center

Ryan O'Reilly and The Price For A True "Number-One" Center

March 5th, 2013 In the game of hockey, a true number-one center is a lot like a unicorn. It's hard to find, but you know it when you see it. For the Calgary Flames, this proverbial unicorn has been almost impossible to find. In the 2001-02 season, Jarome Iginla made the leap from being a good NHL winger to being an elite player. Almost...
Capitals drop 2-1 Decision To Rangers

Capitals drop 2-1 Decision To Rangers

February 18th, 2013 Last night, the Washington Capitals paid a visit to the New York Rangers at the Madison Square Garden. The Caps were looking for their 6th victory of the shortened 2013 schedule. Entering the contest with a record of 11-5-2 in the last 18 regular season games against the Rangers, the Nation's Capitals fell short, losing their 9th...
Rangers' Stick to Game Plan, Rangers Win. Any Questions?

Rangers' Stick to Game Plan, Rangers Win. Any Questions?

February 5th, 2013 Going into Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Rangers' unexpectedly lackluster 3-4-0 start to the 2013 season had many fans hitting the panic button. Many worried that the loss of roster staples like Brandon Dubinsky, Artem Anisimov, Brandon Prust and Ruslan Fedotenko had altered the chemistry of the team; that Rick...
Rick Nash Bolsters Broadway as a Blueshirt

Rick Nash Bolsters Broadway as a Blueshirt

July 25th, 2012 It's finally a done deal. Rick Nash is a Blueshirt on Broadway. Nash will earn $7.8 million against the salary cap through the 2017-18 seasons. Nash had to waive his no-trade clause before the trade to the Rangers. The 28-year-old five time all-star, 40-goal scorer is relieved the wait is over. Nash can concentrate on elevating his game...

Rivalry Renewed: Devils vs Rangers Game 1 Instant Review

May 14th, 2012 It's been 18 years since the New Jersey Devils and New York Rangers played in the 1994 Eastern Conference Finals, and in Game 1 of the 2012 East Finals it was the Rangers who took the early series lead with a 3-0 win behind 21 saves by Henrik Lundqvist and three, third period goals. The Devils may have had some better scoring chances,...

Playoff Seeding & NHL Analysts: Two Severe Flaws of the NHL

April 10th, 2012 While we were all getting over the arrogant commentary presented over Philadelphia airwaves by NBC hockey analyst, Mike Milbury, other coaches and analysts felt entitled to chime in and bash Sidney Crosbyand the rest of the Pittsburgh Penguins organization. After Brooks Orpik dished out a questionable and dirty knee-on-knee hit to...
Scorers-by-necessity: A look at secondary scorers providing first line points

Scorers-by-necessity: A look at secondary scorers providing first line points

March 30th, 2012 Michael Ryder is having a career year with the Dallas Stars. This is a surprise, though it really shouldn’t have been. When Ryder signed a two-year deal last summer with the Stars worth $3.5 million annually, he elevated himself from a third-line, secondary scorer on a Boston Bruins team with plenty of offensive weapons, to a...
New York's Power Play Showing Signs of Life as Rangers Control Eastern Conference Lead

New York's Power Play Showing Signs of Life as Rangers Control Eastern Conference Lead

February 17th, 2012 No power-play, you say? With a 0-6 on the power-play entering the third period against the visiting Chicago Blackhawks last night, it would be easy to dismiss the Rangers as a dynamic playoff team. Hey, it's just one game, but a diminished demonstration of a team who has beaten the odds, only fuels the fire. Fans clambering for...

New York Rangers bolstered by Blue Line Benefits

With a crunching 4-1 loss to the Washington Capitals, New York Rangers coach John Tortorella commented on his defense, "I wouldn't say it was defensive. I'd say it’s some brain-dead plays at our blue line, as far as turnovers." The Rangers winning stretch snapped confronted by their coach with an open call for improvement. The good...
Undisciplined Rangers Remain Winless

Undisciplined Rangers Remain Winless

October 17th, 2011 The lack of discipline was evident again in Saturday night’s Ranger game. The New York Rangers, in their first game back in North America, took on a promising young Islanders team, a bitter rival who always plays them tough. The end result was a sloppy 4-2 loss, leaving many questions surrounding the team. It’s too early to go...

Video: Matt Cooke Elbows Ryan McDonagh; Penguins lose to Rangers in wild third period

March 20th, 2011 The NBC Game of the Week matched the Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Rangers in an Atlantic Division battle, but over the next 24 hours the spotlight will shine brightest on Penguins winger Matt Cooke after his elbow to the head of Ryan McDonagh in the third period of a 1-1 game.
