Rangers Acquire Ryane Clowe, Comparisons to Prust Abound
With the trade deadline approaching the Rangers felt like they needed to make a move to help give their offense a boost. An offense that currently ranks last in the NHL in goal scoring, and this is an offense with Brad Richards, Marian Gaborik, and Rick Nash. Three perennial all-star players who, outside of Rick Nash, [...]
How The Rangers Can Count On More Than One Swede
Firstly I would just like to say hello to Ranger Nation. I am Marc Twinberrow and I am the newest blogger here on Ranger Nation from the United Kingdom. I have been a fan of the sport for around seven or eight years and have fallen in love with the New York Rangers from then [...]
Rupp For Powe/Palmieri: Analyzing the Rangers-Wild Trade
The Rangers made their real trade of the 2012-2013 season early on Monday when they shipped center Mike Rupp to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for center Darroll Powe and right wing Nick Palmieri. Rupp and Powe will swap places on the fourth line for the Wild and Rangers respectively, while Palmieri has been sent [...]
2012 A.D. – After Doan
Perhaps a more appropriate title would have been, “2012 W.D. – Without Doan”. Regardless, it now looks like Greg Jamison is moving closer to securing the funding necessary to complete his proposed purchase of the Phoenix Coyotes. Subsequently, it appears more likely that as a result Shane Doan’s wish to remain with the only franchise [...]
Blog: Stu Bickel’s Growing Pains
Pretty much everyone knows that I’m a big Stu Bickel fan. While he may not have had a spectacular rookie season with the Rangers last season, he won my heart. He showed that with grit and determination, he could play in the NHL (longer than most had expected him to). But his rookie season wasn’t [...]
Glen Miller’s Favorite New York Rangers: 15-11
Parts one and two of My Favorite Rangers, 1 – 25 (or 27), was heavily populated by tough guys. Part III won’t be entirely different but it also includes two of the most skilled goal scorers to ever suit up in a Rangers sweater. Let’s get right to it. 15. Brandon Prust – Anyone [...]
New York Rangers Offseason (So Far) In Review
The New York Rangers didn’t make a huge splash in free agency just yet, but that doesn’t mean they’ve been completely quiet. Many faces have come and gone already this offseason as Glen Sather looks to build on a roster that came within two games of reaching the Stanley Cup Finals this past season. Exit [...]
Rangers Notes: Patience is Important; Got to Give to Get; Don’t be Fooled by Fake News
The Rangers have needs this summer — one specific need, really. They need scoring. It was a struggle at times for the Rangers to score during the playoffs, and you can’t count on Henrik Lundqvist to shut out the other team every game. He is human, after all. But so far the Rangers haven’t signed [...]
Rangers Stay Quiet On Day 1, Fans Confuse It With Armageddon
This year’s free agency class lacked the big names that it has in recent years. As there are only two marquee guys on the market this off-season, Zach Parise and Ryan Suter. The Rangers haven’t been linked to either one too much throughout the day which I wasn’t exactly surprised. The Rangers, however, have been linked to Rick Nash but he [...]
Brandon Prust Signs With Montreal
Well with the signing of Aaron Asham it made Prust expendable and he has found a new home with the Montreal Canadiens. Montreal signs him for 4 years/$10 million, which is ridiculous. Now to all the Rangers fans complaining that the Rangers signed Asham and they are letting Prust go, you need to shutup. Had the Rangers made this [...]
