It’s that time of the season again. Yes, the annual trading frenzy as fading teams try to get something worthwhile for their unrestricted free agents. The NHL trade deadline is March 4. Take a look at this list of the top 50 UFA’s from the 8 worst teams in the league. I like the Maple [...]

Rangers waive Rissmiller; Brendan Shanahan, come on down!
Posted in New York Rangers, tagged brendan shanahan, Drury, Fritsche, Hartford, Naslund, Patrick Rissmiller, prucha, rangers, salary cap, waive, waivers on Wednesday, October 22, 2008 | 8 Comments »
The Rangers freed up some room on their cap by waiving Rissmiller. (Ideally for the Rangers, nobody else will claim him, and he will end up in Hartford for the season.)
I don’t know about everyone else, but I’d much rather see Brendan Shanahan skating along side Drury and Naslund than a constantly rotating winger group [...]
Is there a trade in the works for the Rangers?

Take a look at the Rangers projected roster for 2008-2009. The top 3 lines and the defense are pretty much set, but there seem to be too many forwards.
Zherdev-Gomez-Naslund
Prucha-Drury-Dawes
Callahan-Dubinsky-Sjostrom
Voros-Fritsche/Rissmiller-[Anisimov?]
Hollweg/[Byers?]-Betts-Orr/[Moore?]
Redden-Staal
Rozsival-Girardi
Mara-Kalinin-[Sanguinetti?]
By my calculations the Rangers have an excess of 3 NHL forwards plus 3 more NHL-caliber forwards currently in Hartford. Because of this, it might be a good [...]
Where do the Rangers stand?

Let’s go through a projection of how the Rangers roster might shape up:
Zherdev-Gomez-[Jagr or some UFA]
Dawes-Drury-Callahan
Sjostrom-Dubinsky-Prucha
Hollweg-Betts-Orr
Fritsche-Rissmiller-Voros
Shanahan?
Rozsival-Staal
Redden-Girardi
Pock?-Strudwick?-Sanguinetti?
The Rangers have $14.5 million in cap space but that number does not include Dawes, Sjostrom, Fritsche, Rissmiller, Voros, or Strudwick.
Assuming the Rangers will spend roughly $4 or $5 million between those players, they will have about $9 or $10 million [...]
Game 5 Pre-game: Korpikoski in
Posted in New York Rangers, tagged Backman, Korpikoski, New York Rangers, Penguins, Playoffs, prucha, Stanley Cup, strudwick on Sunday, May 4, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Lauri Korpikoski is going to play center for the 4th line between Sjostrom and Hollweg. Renney dangled this possibility before game 4, but this time it’s actually going to happen.
Strudwick is in for Backman. Prucha will probably be on the 2nd line again just like game 4.
Here we go.
Let’s go Rangers!
Rangers shuffle the lineup in practice today
Posted in New York Rangers, tagged Avery, Backman, betts, changes, Gomez, lineup, mara, New York Rangers, Playoffs, power play, prucha, Shanahan, shuffle, Sjostrom, Stanley Cup, strudwick on Monday, April 28, 2008 | 1 Comment »
On the front lines, Petr Prucha and Brendan Shanahan switched spots, meaning Prucha skated on the 2nd line with Scott Gomez and Sean Avery, while Shanny skated on the 4th line with Blair Betts and Fred Sjostrom. The Rangers used this lineup in the last game of the regular season against the Devils.
On D, Jason [...]
Rangers vs. Penguins – 2nd time the charm?
Posted in Game Previews, New York Rangers, tagged Crosby, dives, Gomez, hollweg, New York Rangers, Orr, Pengins, prucha, Sjostrom on Monday, March 31, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The Rangers and Penguins will meet again tonight for the 2nd day in a row in what is the 8th and final matchup of the season between the two teams. After yesterday’s 3-1 loss, the Rangers are 4-3-0 on the season against the Penguins, with three of those wins coming at MSG.
I don’t want [...]
Rozsival back, Gomez questionable tonight against Devils
Posted in Game Previews, New York Rangers, tagged Brodeur, Devils, Gomez, hollweg, lundqvist, malik, New York Rangers, Orr, prucha, rozsival, Sjostrom, strudwick on Thursday, March 27, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Scott Gomez will be on the ice for warm-ups but will make a game-time decision as to whether he can play against his former team. If Gomez plays, the three scoring lines should return to “normal”. That is:
Avery-Dubinsky-Jagr
Dawes-Gomez-Shanahan
Straka-Drury-Callahan
For the 4th line, I’d like to see Prucha and Hollweg stay in the lineup with [...]
Uh Oh

After a 13-game streak of aggressive, hard-nosed, and winning hockey, the Rangers returned to their pre-All-Star-break ineptitude in this weekend’s losses to the Panthers and Lightning — two teams outside of the playoff picture.
The Rangers showed no energy whatsoever in the two games. The Eastern Conference is so tight that going into the weekend, it [...]
Rangers lose to Panthers; Will play Lightning tonight
Posted in Game Previews, Game Recaps, New York Rangers, tagged Lightning, lundqvist, New York Rangers, Panthers, prucha, Renney, Valiquette on Saturday, March 15, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The loss to the Panthers was a tough one because they had some serious scoring chances at the end and just couldn’t put the puck in the net. The loss snapped a 13-game streak in which the Rangers had not lost in regulation.
Earlier in the week, Tom Renney had mentioned he would probably start Valiquette [...]
