NEW YORK – What kind of team is the New York Rangers? That’s the question everyone is asking, especially after another home loss – this time 3-1 to the Detroit Red Wings.
The Blueshirts played hard last night, especially in the third period, but John Tortorella’s crew just couldn’t score on the power play, as they [...]

NEW YORK – Yes, your eyes are not deceiving you, the Rangers scored seven goals in tonight’s game.
And before you ask, Marian Gaborik only had two.
The Rangers finally broke out of the scoring drought with a 7-4 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. Goal after goal, the team looked sharp, which is precisely the team [...]

NEW YORK – It’s been a very long time since the Rangers crashed the nets like the did last night. And it’s been a very long time since they have been so well conditioned that they dominated the third period.
The Toronto Maple Leafs didn’t know what hit them.
So much so that the Blueshirts [...]

NEWARK – Jacques Lemaire’s second go-round with the Devils has officially began.

The Rangers will get another opportunity to [...]

NEW YORK – It was a “Code Blue” evening for the New Jersey Devils Monday; the New York Rangers suffocated them every inch of the ice and the Devils’ offense flat lined.
There was no rescuing the club from themselves, resulting in a season-high fifth straight loss, a 3-0 shutout by Henrik Lundqvist and the Rangers.
“There [...]

NEW YORK – It seems like every time the Rangers take on the Devils, the devil incarnate himself, Sean Avery, has something to do with the decision.
Tonight’s 3-0 Ranger win was no exception.
With an assist and a non-fight against David Clarkson, the Grate One had his presence felt each minute he was on the ice.
“It’s [...]

NEW YORK – In football, it’s called a trap game – a match where a team overlooks its inferior opponent.
Yet, when it comes to the Minnesota Wild, it’s always a trap game, as Jacques Lemaire’s system slows down the attacking opponents almost to a crawl.
In the end though, the Blueshirts didn’t get trapped, coming out [...]

NEW YORK – With the way Sean Avery is playing, maybe everyone on the Rangers should go through the NHL mandated Anger Management sessions.
