The journey begins: Capitals v. Rangers
The real season begins Wednesday night for the Washington Capitals. We have seen this movie before; winning the Eastern Conference and entering the playoffs as a legitimate contender to win the Stanley Cup. A season ago the Capitals were in a very similar position to the one they find themselves in this year. Suffice to [...]
Just Can’t Figure This Team Out At All
The Rangers have played 9 games and are 4-4-1 for 9 pts., but have played better on the road than at MSG, where they are an abysmal 1-3-1 which includes 2 straight losses to both Atlanta and Carolina this week. I thought that after they had lost Gaborik and Drury to injuries that they would be [...]
Season Resumes with a Ranger Victory in Ottawa
Hey everyone, it’s been a couple of weeks since I have had to post about the Rangers and at least tonight they gave me something positive to talk about. They faced off against the Ottawa Senators at ScotiaBank Place and came away with a nice win which was a total team effort. Callahan had a pair, [...]
Saturday Night Special – 3-1 Win and Henrik Stellar in Net for NYR
Tonight the Rangers faced off against the Devils and their new acquisition (rental) Kovalchuk and proceeded to play well against them at MSG. Lundqvist was simply all world in net tonight, and had to be that way in the 3rd as the Devils were desperately trying to get back in the game. In addition to [...]

According to NY Post reporter Larry Brooks, posting via his Twitter account, the Thrashers are looking for a combination of packages that include: defenseman Marc Staal; defenseman Michael Del Zotto [...]
Slapping the Habs Around at the Garden
Wow, the Rangers finally figured out how to score some goals tonight when they scored 6 straight after trailing by a pair early on over Montreal at MSG. I was in shock at the total goals since they scored 1 in the previous 3 and looked like it was going to be another long night, [...]
Avery and The Rangers Take it to The Stars

Rescuing the Night from a Certain OT or Shootout
Well whaddya know, the Rangers won a game tonight 3-2 over the Bruins at the Garden, as rare as that has become lately. What is even more shocking is that Higgins finally scored a goal at home this year and wowee, it was the game winner with 1:29 left in the 3rd. Actually I was [...]

After having the last 2 days off for the Xmas break, the Rangers played their second game of a 3 game home stand where they met up once again with the Islanders for the 3rd time in the last 10 days. This one unfortunately did not go the Rangers way as they lost in OT [...]
4th Straight Win Going into Xmas Break
Tonight, the Rangers played their first game of a 3 game home stand where they faced off against the Panthers and came away with a solid 4-1 win which now gives them a 4 game winning streak going into the 2 day Christmas break. For the fourth straight game, there were lots of good, solid [...]

Another Brutal Loss Drops The Rangers Under.500
Good evening everyone. Tonight’s game at the Garden was another close one, but in the end the Rangers came up on the short end of a 3-2 loss. With this latest loss, they have no dropped below the .500 mark for the first time this year. The keys to this latest loss were that they [...]

Hello everyone, well it was another game last night where the Rangers had an opportunity to steal 2 points on the road and in the end, they managed to just get out with one against the Blackhawks last night in a 2-1 OT loss.

Gutting One Out at the HSBC Arena
Good evening everyone. Tonight’s game in Buffalo was a gut wrencher, but in the end the Rangers managed to come up on the positive end of a hard fought 2-1 win. The key tonight was that they played like a team and it showed with many great plays on the defensive end and some clutch [...]
Is the Season Going Down the Toilet?
Hello everyone. Last night’s game, which was played at the Garden, was their 3rd straight loss in which they actually played well the first 2 periods and fell apart in the 3rd. They were outplayed mainly in the third period as the Pens simply had the better of the play, scored 3 times and won [...]
A Disaster In Tampa Tonight
Good evening everyone. Tonight’s game, if you want to call it that was the 2nd one of a 3 game road trip in Tampa, FL against the Lightning and they managed to come out, not show up and get absolutely smoked. Tonight, there were zero great moments as nobody played well to the frustration of [...]
