Rangers Need Some Home Cooking

Feb 7th, 2008 | By Joe McDonald | Category: NYSR Blog

Through the miracle of moden technology called Verizon, I am writing this on the train ride home.
If you were at the game or watched it at home, you saw the Rangers dominate on shots, but also watched as the Ducks capitalized on Blueshirt mistakes.
Here’s the problem: The Rangers play a different game at home compared [...]



This is why I Love Tom Renney

Dec 17th, 2007 | By Joe McDonald | Category: NYSR Blog

Unlike most other coaches and managers in New York, Tom Renney is very honest with the media. Last night was no exception as he said only three Rangers were playing well in this swoon while not mentioning them [feel free to speculate].

A good solid win by the Rangers, who proved once again they can keep up with the Sabres, shift to shift.
Now, I know the question everyone is wondering: Did Daniel Briere score with 13.4 seconds [...]



The City of Blinding Light

That may be what the Sabres thought when they stepped on the Garden ice. The crowd was awesome.
But the fact is this: If Ryan Miller continues to stand on his head, Buffalo will be tough to beat. A lot of good chances for the Rangers, but nothing to show for it. And the Rangers again [...]
