After finally getting back in the win column for the first time since Jan. 19, the Rangers may continue to make the fans smile if they can complete a reported trade with the Calgary Flames.
Reportedly, the Blueshirts will send disgruntled forward Ales Kotalik and disappointing left wing Christopher Higgins west for center Olli Jokinen and [...]

NEW YORK –Lately, life is much better for Scott Gomez, after his trade to the Montreal Canadiens, than it has been for the New York Rangers, the team which traded him north of the border.  The transition has been as smooth as could be expected, given that hockey is covered as fervently throughout Canada as [...]

So this is what the Rangers were missing the last few seasons.
It was supposed to be Jaromir Jagr, but he was never the same after his shoulder was dislocated in the 2006 playoffs. And Scott Gomez never clicked with anyone he played with on his line.
Chris Drury was supposed to be clutch, but the drain [...]

Here we are again. It’s July and already, Glen Sather has overpaid a big name free agent by signing Marian Gaborik to a five-year deal worth $37.5 million. For those math majors out there, it averages out to a cap deadly $7.5-per-season.
Predictably, many Ranger fans were at a loss for words, questioning handing out such [...]

As off-season’s go, Glen Sather really hasn’t had a good one since the lockout.
You might remember that one when the Ranger’s GM scrambled to fill his team with Czechs, just to keep Jaromir Jagr, his one superstar, happy. That worked with the Rangers making the playoffs for the first time in seven years.

In the first move in what looks like to be a busy offseason, the Rangers traded center Scott Gomez, forward Tom Pyatt, and defenseman Mike Busto to the Montreal Canadiens for forward Chris Higgins and defensemen Ryan McDonagh and Pavel Valentenko.
In moving Gomez, the Rangers clear major space on the salary cap since he is [...]

Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals aren’t ready to roll over and die. Trailing 3-1 in the first round for the second consecutive year, they staved off elimination in fine style with a dominant 4-0 Game Five win over the Rangers before a loud Verizon Center to extend the series.
The Rangers will get another opportunity to [...]

When the final buzzer sounded, the Rangers and an entire fanbase exhaled. That’s what kind of topsy turvy night it was as somehow minus captain Chris Drury, they found a way to edge Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals, stealing Game One of the best-of-seven Eastern Conference Quarterfinal 4-3 at a jam packed Verizon Center in [...]

In almost 24 hours, the second season will get started for John Tortorella’s Rangers when they visit superstar Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals in D.C.  If they did what was required by winning the final three to earn a fourth straight trip to the postseason and the East’s No.7 seed, then by no means will [...]
