Game 14. Capitals at Rangers. First meeting of the season, the first since Game 7 of that second-round playoff series last spring, which included a triple-OT Rangers win in D.C. Rick Nash, who has an undisclosed injury (banged up) and Chris Kreider, who was recalled from Hartford in case Nash… Read More →
In case you missed it, Rick Nash will skate in warmups, as will Chris Kreider. Then a decision will be made. Which, to me, says you can eliminate “concussion” from the speculation. Henrik Lundqvist starts in goal. John Tortorella:

Speculation here for the moment: Could it be that Rick Nash is injured? Nash took a maintenance day today, but that’s what Dan Girardi took before he missed a couple of games with an undisclosed injury, too.

I am taking a maintenance day (upper and lower body non-injuries) after splitting time between my two jobs the last few days. Rick Nash also took one today but is expected to play tomorrow, according to our friends who tweet over there——————> Keep an eye to your right for John… Read More →
from the NYR: RANGERS ASSIGN FORWARD CHRIS KREIDER TO CONNECTICUT NEW YORK, February 15, 2013 – New York Rangers President and General Manager Glen Sather announced today that the club has assigned forward Chris Kreider to the Connecticut Whale of the American Hockey League (AHL). Kreider, 21, has registered one goal and… Read More →
Thoughts: 1) Martin Biron. Let’s talk about fairness here. Because it isn’t fair if every time this guy plays and the Rangers don’t win, that it’s his fault, or the fault of the decision to play him. He’s not going to go 8-0 or 10-0 or whatever. He’s 1-0-1. Three… Read More →

The coach was pretty good again tonight, went for a while, volunteered some internal statistical stuff. Almost expected him to wish the assembled press a Happy Valentine’s Day! John Tortorella:

First and foremost, thanks to Carp for giving me a spot in the lineup. Most appreciated. Here we are, folks. A dozen games in the books already. Twenty-five percent of the schedule done, just like that. Sure, a truncated 48-game season is better than no season at all. But it… Read More →

Because it was such a big part of the discussion during the live chat (you can replay it on the thread below), and since J.T. Miller admitted he struggled in Boston, and since John Tortorella said he’s still undecided about a lineup for tomorrow night’s game against the Islanders (the… Read More →

Game 12. Rangers at Bruins. Ya boys hit the quarter-pole of this Bettman-shortened season with their third meeting (already) of the season against the team I think has been the most impressive in the East so far. The Rangers have not won three in a row yet this season. The… Read More →
