Opinion: Put Sam and JD Back in the Booth Together For One Last Game

Growing up in the 1980s and 1990s (I am 41 years old), I had two voices that narrated the hockey that I watched. Those voices belonged to Sam Rosen and John Davidson. They partnered to broadcast New York Rangers games from 1986-2006 helping to form one of the best hockey broadcasting tandems in the industry. […]

Goaltender Quick Continues to Bring Value to the Rangers

There were a lot of naysayers when the New York Rangers signed Jonathan Quick as an unrestricted free agent (UFA) after the 2022-23 season. Many people pointed out that he was getting older, that his skills were diminishing, and that his best days were well behind him. They may have had a point about two […]

Opinion: Jets’ Hellebuyck Playing at a Level Way Above the Rest

One way to tell if someone is a great NHL goaltender is consistency. This means that year in and year out, this masked man will deliver a lot of wins, post great statistics, come up with the big saves for his hockey club, and be the team’s best player on the ice more often than […]

Trocheck Line Driving the Rangers Once Again

The New York Rangers had a lot of success last season due to the play of one particular line. No, it was not a line with Mika Zibanejad (72 points) and Chris Kreider (75 points). While both of those players had solid seasons, they did not have anywhere near the success of a line that […]

New York Rangers: You Can’t Win It All in October

The New York Rangers are off to a 5-0-1 start, a success by any measure. But this team has aspirations that go way beyond making the playoffs. In fact, the only result that will truly satisfy the fanbase at this point is a Stanley Cup victory. While they can’t achieve that objective in October, they […]

Opinion: Rangers Doing Everything Right to Star Season

It can be said in hockey that the only thing that matters is winning the Stanley Cup. While that is true, what is also a fact is that it takes a lot of wins to get there in both the regular season and the postseason. Every point matters, so every team needs to gather wins […]

Stolarz Providing Strong Goaltending in the Early Going For The Leafs

The Toronto Maple Leafs goaltending has been an enigma for the last several seasons. They would have a goaltender play well and then struggle. They would then have another goaltender play look great and then get hurt. If the Leafs want to have any chance of going far in the Stanley Cup playoffs and winning […]

New York Rangers: Hope Springs Eternal

As we gear up for another season, I have been thinking a lot about what success in the NHL looks like. For me, a fan, for a player, for an organization, the way or ways in which we measure success can make all the difference. For the New York Rangers, the team that I spend […]

Opinion: Rangers’ Shesterkin Should be Extra Motivated Going into Upcoming Season

The New York Rangers are extremely lucky to have one of the best goaltenders in the league in Igor Shesterkin. Going into his sixth NHL season, Shesterkin, 28 has already done a lot for the Blueshirts. He has taken them to the Eastern Conference Finals in two of the past three seasons, won the Vezina […]

Opinion: More Questions Than Answers for the Blueshirts Heading Into Upcoming Season

Despite not winning the Stanley Cup last season, the New York Rangers had what you would call a perfect season. They finished first in the Metropolitan Division, first in the Eastern Conference, and first in the entire NHL in the regular season. While doing so, the team set franchise records in wins (55) and points […]
