Vinny Prospal Night; Accountability?…
The 3rd String Safety —
Authority: 140
The average ice time for a forward in a 60-minute hockey game is 15 minutes. The average ice time for a defenseman in a 60-minute hockey game is 20 minutes. Explain to me how, in an “Era of Accountability” (my phrase), Michal Rozsival skates 3 more minutes than the average defender (23:18 against Florida). The ...4 days ago -

A New Day Dawning For the Rangers?
Hot Stove New York —
Authority: 422
After John Tortorella ’s tirade heard round the world last Wednesday night, the Rangers have won three straight games. “No entitlement” is the new philosophy in Ranger Land. The first step was to scratch Wade Redden for two games. He took it like a man. Well, actually he didn’t. He took it like a ...5 days ago -
Tough Torts produces results – for now.
The Dark Ranger —
Authority: 124
In addressing the media after a win Thursday (yeah, we got one… yes, US!) in the second of consecutive back to back games against the isles , Torts was quoted as saying that we need to be a team, rather than a collection of individuals trying to win hockey games. I’m sure it was welcome change from what he gave ...1 week ago -
The New York Week That Was (It’s a Wonderful Life)
Hot Stove New York —
Authority: 422
On Saturday night I was flipping between another Rangers loss and the Christmas classic It’s a Wonderful Life . Of course you can’t help but wonder, “What if George Bailey ’s situation happened to me?” What if I were able to see the consequences of never being born? That thought lasted about a minute and a ...1 week ago -
Rangers Stuck in No-Man’s-Land
Hot Stove New York —
Authority: 422
If only the Rangers could play against themselves. They could finally score more than two goals, what with their defense as soft and holey as Swiss cheese. They wouldn’t have to worry about being manhandled, as there would be no hitting at all in the game. The offense only occasionally crashes the net, so the ...1 week ago -
The Burden’s on Lundqvist
Hot Stove New York —
Authority: 422
Whether he likes it or not, the only chance the Rangers have of winning these days is if Henrik Lundqvist plays like Superman. The team has been offensively challenged most of the season, and defensively challenged as well, so with that going for them, they need Lundqvist to be perfect, which is, of course, ...2 weeks ago -
Time for a Change…
The 3rd String Safety —
Authority: 140
I’m not normally the guy who sees a losing streak and says “Fire the coach! Trade Lundqvist! Gaborik was a fluke in October and November! Fire the coach!” However, I can see that this isn’t a “losing streak” – this is a team saddled by bad contracts and players who aren’t playing. Marian Gaborik ...2 weeks ago -

Red Wings visit MSG tonight
The Battle of New York :: A Tri-State Area Hockey Blog —
Authority: 425
While our server has lately had a mind of its own, the Rangers actually won a game last night 2-1 over the Sabres. I recapped it but as usual, it magically disappeared. The Ranger leaders stepped up with Ryan Callahan scoring, Chris Drury playing probably his best game of the season and Henrik Lundqvist stellar with ...3 weeks ago -
Ranger leaders step up in win over Sabres

The leaders stepped up. For one night at least, the Rangers not only came away with a hard fought 2-1 win over a good Buffalo team in Western New York but got excellent performances from Henrik Lundqvist , Chris Drury and Ryan Callahan , halting a three-game losing streak. Lundqvist made 36 saves outdueling Ryan ...3 weeks ago -
Stumbling/Bumbling Blueshirts visit Buffalo
The Battle of New York :: A Tri-State Area Hockey Blog —
Authority: 425
In a couple of hours, the stumbling and bumbling Rangers will faceoff against a good Buffalo team that’s won four straight at HSBC Arena. A place that’s not been kind recently. A Battle of New York between Broadway and Western NY will take place between two teams that couldn’t be any more opposite. The Sabres ...3 weeks ago -
An Odd Weekend...
The Rivalry —
Authority: 118
Four years ago, you could have said the Rangers would get 2 points in this weekends back-to-back games, one in Buffalo and then home against Detroit. They couldve beaten the Sabres but would have been mauled by the Red Wings. Three years ago, you couldve written this weekend off as a total loss. The Sabres were ...3 weeks ago -

The Strengths and Weaknesses of the Rangers
Hot Stove New York —
Authority: 422
The Rangers are in a freefall and it looks like the only thing that can stop them is the break in the schedule. With no game until Saturday, now’s a good time to break things down and list all of the Rangers’ strengths this season: Marian Gaborik can score goals. Ok, that about wraps that up. Now for their ...3 weeks ago -
Rupp first career hat trick latest humiliation
The Battle of New York :: A Tri-State Area Hockey Blog —
Authority: 425
The unlikeliest Pen victimized the Rangers for a hat trick. In the Garden rematch, ex-Devil Mike Rupp stole the show, scoring not once. Not twice. But three times to stake the Pens to a 5-2 road win, sweeping the home-and-home series. Sometimes, there are things you just can’t explain. For disgruntled Ranger fans ...3 weeks ago -

There’s no point in discussing the end result of another shameless performance from the Rangers, who were predictably pummeled by Sidney Crosby and the Pens 8-3 at Mellon Arena Saturday night. So, Sid The Kid did what he always does even if the victim was poor Steve Valiquette - scoring his fourth career hat ...4 weeks ago -
Please Sacrifice The Season

Boy does this team suck. Marc Staal scores early off a nice rush to the backhand and of course they come apart at the seams with Geno and Sid igniting three straight. Even sadder is that after Chris Drury and teammates stick checked and watched Crosby score, I told my Dad another was coming. Sure enough, nobody ...4 weeks ago -

It’ll soon be the day after Thanksgiving which means plenty of puck all day, including the Devils in Beantown with a noon start and the Islanders hosting the Pens at 2 while Buffalo visits Philly in between. As for the Blueshirts, they’ll be where they were over the turkey, stuffing, string bean caserole, yams and ...4 weeks ago
