The Rangers placed winger Darroll Powe on injured reserve with a concussion on Monday. Powe was injured in an accidental open-ice collision with Washington’s Matt Hendricks during Sunday’s 2-1 Rangers win at the Garden. Powe flipped over Hendricks and appeared to land on his head. He looked to be unconscious… Read More →
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.

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 →

Don’t get too excited about this deal. It gives the Rangers a little more potential third-line depth, because Powe—a sturdy 200-plus pounds on a short frame—is known as a penalty killer. He mainly plays the left wing. The fact that he played in the Flyers organization for a while, and… Read More →
Ryan Callahan had an MRI exam done today and the results showed a subluxation of the left shoulder he injured in a scrap with Philadelphia’s Max Talbot in Tuesday night’s 2-1 win over the Flyers. That is certainly not a worst-case scenario for Callahan or the Rangers. He is expected… Read More →
A little late to the party with this. Sorry. Chris Kreider has a bone chip in his ankle and, as of now, is listed as day to day. Apparently he had an MRI yesterday. So newly-acquired Benn Ferriero (from Pittsburgh, for Chad Kolarik, earlier this week) has been recalled from… Read More →

Defenseman Wade Redden, whom Sather signed to a six-year, $39 million… Read More →

Didn’t write a story today, and since we’re still wrestling with this audio thing, here’s the notebook I put together after practice: By Rick Carpiniello GREENBURGH – As the Rangers’ only unsigned player, and as a restricted free agent, defenseman Michael Del Zotto’s leverage is limited.
