And now Game 3 on Tap

Apr 13th, 2008 | By Joe McDonald | Category: NYSR Blog

My Sunday doubleheader continues. I was at Shea earlier and now sitting here at the Garden for Game 3.
Before the game, the media spoke with Tom Renney, who seemed very loose as his team looks to take control of this series by going up 3-0.
Jaromir Jagr came in and showed the press his Stanley Cup [...]



Tonight in Philly

Jan 31st, 2008 | By Joe McDonald | Category: NYSR Blog

Marek Malik is in. Paul Mara is out and Steve Valiquette is in goal.
Tom Renney said Valiquette plays for scheduling purposes, and Henrik Lundqvist will be in Jersey and Montreal.
But tonight the Rangers play the Flyers in a game that hopefully gets the competitive juices flowing as time is ticking away.
“Anything can help,” Renney said. “I [...]



Leafs Tonight

Dec 6th, 2007 | By Joe McDonald | Category: NYSR Blog

The last time the Toronto Maple Leafs were in town on Oct. 27, the 4-1 loss was so bad, the Rangers regrouped and then went on their hot streak.
Now things have changed. The Blueshirts have gotten their grove on and are tied with the Flyers for the divisional lead.
But a 4-0 loss to the Hurricanes [...]



2-2 After 2

Nov 15th, 2007 | By Joe McDonald | Category: NYSR Blog

That’s the score of the game here in Philly. The Rangers looked good with the exception of an early goal by former Devil Jim Dowd and then a power play later by Danny [Don't call me Daniel] Briere.
Going into the third, the Blueshirts will need to keep the pressure up and continue to prevent any [...]



Jags Still Questionable

Nov 5th, 2007 | By Joe McDonald | Category: NYSR Blog

No word yet on the status of Jarormir Jagr, but he did participate in the pre-game skate. Greg Moore is also out there as well.
But the smart money says he will give it a chance and play. Just a gut feeling.
Flyers in town with the 8-4 record [4-4 on the road]. The Rangers will look to jump [...]



No Avery For Tonight

Nov 1st, 2007 | By Joe McDonald | Category: NYSR Blog

Even though Sean Avery wants to play tonight, coach Tom Renney will have nothing of it.
After going through contact during the moring skate today, Renney will hold him out against Washington and then consider using him on Saturday against the Devils.
“He want through it this morning and we will see about it tomorrow,” Renney said. ”He [...]



And Now The Rangers Take on the Flyers

Sep 22nd, 2007 | By Joe McDonald | Category: NYSR Blog

Giveaways. Giveaways.
That’s the story of the first period as the Rangers gave away the puck a little too much for anyone’s taste. And the 2-0 Flyer lead, on goals by Sami Kapanen and Mike Knuble is the result. Some neat things: Colton Orr took on David Laliberte and the Flyers rookie got a 10 minutes misconduct [...]
