While you continue to fret over the Rangers most recent performance, a somewhat unrelated update:

A number of you have contacted me about tickets for the Rangers’ two-game set in Prague next fall. Thanks to Zdenek Janda, a reporter from the Daily Sport in Prague who was kind enough to get back to me on this, [...]

OK, you officially have reason to be throwing your shoes at the TV scratching your head.

Because other than a couple of Swedes—sorry Christian Backman, but we’re talking about Fred Sjostrom and Henrik Lundqvist—the Rangers pulled a complete no-show tonight in Tampa, and now are just four points ahead of ninth place Buffalo.

Maybe it’s just a [...]

Ah, sarcasm. It is the air I breathe.

No, I don’t think you should be overly concerned about your Rangers after last night’s streak-snapping loss to a Panthers team that has now won six straight.

But a little bit of concern? Sure. After all, nothing is yet a given with 11 games remaining.

Truth is, the Rangers haven’t been [...]

Tom Renney has again opted against tinkering with his lineup, other than Marek Malik missing his second consecutive game with what is now a slight shoulder sprain.

This also means Henrik Lundqvist is back in net, which makes sense: Florida has won five straight, so the Rangers are better off having their No. 1 guy tonight.

All [...]

If Jaromir Jagr has any desire to be a Ranger next season, why wouldn’t he just say so when we asked him about it yesterday?

That was one reaction I took away from a conversation in which the captain was otherwise perfectly vague. It appears the only other person present for it had the same take

Again, [...]

As if my post from before didn’t already hint at as much, Jaromir Jagr was predictably noncommital when it came to the subject of his plans for next season.

“I think we should worry about that a little later after the season,” Jagr said. “How to explain it? There was still a chance I was going [...]

Sean Avery was fined $2,500 and the Rangers were tabbed for $25,000 as a result of the left wing’s water bottle throwing incident on Sunday. This news came courtesy not of the league or the Rangers, but of Avery himself.

I won’t detail the attire he was sporting when he announced as much. Let’s just say [...]

Stephen Valiquette said he hasn’t had any discussions with the Rangers about a contract for next season, but that he wants to be back.

Neither of these revelations should come as much of a surprise. One, given the other free agents on the team’s roster, the backup goalie might not be much of a priority right [...]

Update, 1:33 p.m: The Rangers just announced they’ve agreed to terms with forward Justin Soryal.

A startling admission: I don’t know who that is. Apparently he’s in the OHL playing for Peterborough, and has 15 goals and 22 assists in 56 games. He was a free agent, so I assume that means he wasn’t drafted. [...]

A project for my boss just now involved submitting a list of teams the Rangers might face in the first round of the playoffs.

From what I recall about last year, only sixth through eighth place were viable options at the same point in the season, and I’m pretty sure there were only four realistic first [...]
