The waiting is over!
Finally after a day of waiting, Olli Jokinen and Brandon Prust are Rangers, while the team bids goodbuy to Ales Kotalik and Christopher Higgins.
No matter how Jokinen meshes with Marian Gaborik, this is simply a good trade for the Rangers. They gave up nothing, while getting the cap flexibility for next season [...]

NE W YORK – It was almost impossible to contain them. After half a season of sober moods and sad statements, the Rangers were just giddy after their second laugher in two games, this time beating the Tampa Bay Lightning, 8-2.
“It feels great scoring eight goals,” said forward Vinny Prospal, who was one of eight [...]

NEW YORK – In baseball, this would have been the equivalent of Sabathia vs. Santana. Or in Tennis, this was Federer and Nadal matching wits.
There’s just something special when two greats match up for an epic battle. And 18,200 fans saw two titans in Marty Brodeur and Henrik Lundqvist face off.
“[Henrik] played phenomenal,” said forward [...]

UNIONDALE, NY – Last night’s game was not Glen Sather’s swan song. No, he’s not going anywhere and at times you have to think the Pope has less job security.
Last night’s game against the Islanders was a call to arms for the Rangers. Are they are a team or are they just a collection of [...]

NEW YORK – Make no mistke, this was a very winnable game for the New York Rangers.
Don’t just take a the word of a humble reporter, listen to The King.
“This one hurts,” said “The King” Henrik Lundqvist. “The way we played in the third, we deserved at least a tie game, if not a win. [...]

UNIONDALE, NY – The sheepish grin on Henrik Lundqvist’s face told the story. Thankfully only his pride was hurt his car accident on the Saw Mill Parkway yesterday.
He practiced and will be in goal tonight as the Rangers take on the Islanders at Nassau Coliseum.
“It was only me and I’m fine,” he said with a [...]

Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams has perhaps the most potential of any player in the NFL this week; taking the spot of this week’s fantasy sleeper.
Williams came into the season with remarkable expectations for just a 4th-year back, but has come out flat in the Panther’s opening games. Averaging just over 50 yards rushing per [...]

NEW YORK – During their first five wins this season, the Rangers have gained points in almost every fashion.
They won tight games and they won blow outs. They could shut out teams and they can win the shooting matches.
But one thing was constant during their first five wins, the Rangers were the better team on [...]

NEW YORK – Forget Eli Manning’s tremendous performance at Giants Stadium. And forget Alex Rodriguez’s heroics in the ALDS. The best player in New York yesterday was a little used backup goaltender, who pitched his fourth career shutout.
Stephen Valiquette started for the first time this season in the eventual Ranger 3-0 win over the [...]
