The Rangers should hire Mark Messier as head coach ... of the re-christened AHL Hartford Wolf Pack. That is the place for Messier, passed over in his bid to start his career behind the bench at the top, to begin. That... June 16, 2013
From RangersIt’s a home run for the NHL, this matchup for the Stanley Cup between Chicago and Boston that begins Wednesday night. It’s two powerhouse clubs, two glamour U.S. markets, two franchises who have reversed so much of... June 12, 2013
From More SportsThe call on Dan Bylsma’s future behind the Penguins’ bench may not be Pittsburgh general manager Ray Shero’s to make. Several individuals within the industry have told Slap Shots Penguins chairman Mario Lemieux,... June 09, 2013
From More SportsThe change in coaching administrations could alter the Rangers’ decision regarding Brad Richards, who still is far more likely to be an amnesty buyout later this month than a candidate for the club’s first-line center... June 02, 2013
From More SportsBill Russell, the undisputed greatest winner in the history of professional sports, won two NBA championships in his first three seasons as coach of the Celtics. Not so coincidentally, Russell had himself to play center... June 01, 2013
From RangersThe first text Sean Avery received informing him John Tortorella had been fired as Rangers’ coach came early Wednesday afternoon while he was in the back seat of a taxi, between business meetings in Manhattan. “Oh, I... May 31, 2013
From RangersGlen Sather said yesterday the decision to fire John Tortorella was his. The reality is the players made the decision for the club president and general manager. The Rangers players had had enough of the coach and they... May 30, 2013
From RangersHenrik Lundqvist chose his words very carefully yesterday when the subject of a potential contract extension this summer was raised at yesterday’s breakup day, so I sure won’t put any words in his mouth. But know this:... May 28, 2013
From RangersJohn Tortorella’s obligation is to coach the team he has, not the team he used to have or the team he wishes he had. The 2011-12 Rangers ceased to exist more than a year ago. It is a waste of time, energy and of the... May 27, 2013
From RangersBOSTON — The Rangers saved their best of the series for the last of the series, and that wasn’t enough, either. One year to the day after their 2012 elimination by the Devils in the conference finals, the Rangers were... May 26, 2013
From RangersBOSTON — All these months later, it still is baffling that the NHLPA did not take a stand against the NHL’s insistence on applying the punitive cap-recapture provision of the collective bargaining agreement to contracts... May 26, 2013
From More SportsBOSTON — There he was, a Ranger who finally had enough of Brad Marchand and his verbal challenges. There he was, a Ranger not only standing his ground, but standing up for his teammates. There was Derick Brassard, of... May 25, 2013
From RangersSo if anyone ever does a remake of the film, “It Happens Every Spring,” what do you say they cast Chris Kreider in the lead role? The kid has the touch in big moments, that’s for sure. That’s what people said when he... May 24, 2013
From RangersBrad Richards left his coach no choice. Which, when it comes right down to it, is just as well, because any time the Rangers have gone on the power play in the playoffs, John Tortorella has chosen to use Richards,... May 23, 2013
From RangersSo three players in 10 games have been knocked silly on checks from opponents, legal or otherwise, and yet here are the Rangers on the brink of Round 2 elimination tonight at the Garden, content to turn the other cheek... May 23, 2013
From RangersIt was hardly earth-shattering stuff, nothing like saying a player “stinks” on the power play, for instance, but John Tortorella sure had it right before the playoffs started when the Rangers’ coach talked about... May 22, 2013
From RangersBOSTON — It is difficult enough for the Rangers to win even when Henrik Lundqvist is at the top of his game. It is all but impossible for the Blueshirts to even come close when The King plays as if he’s a plebeian.... May 20, 2013

From RangersWASHINGTON — It can be such ugly hockey. That is Black-and-Blueshirt hockey. But it is beautiful hockey in the eyes of the beholders who advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals with their Game 7, 5-0 rout of the... May 14, 2013
From RangersOne goal. That’s all the King’s men got for Henrik Lundqvist and that’s all their goaltender needed. One game. That’s all that Lundqvist and the Rangers need in order to advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals.... May 13, 2013
From RangersThe Islanders raised all the echoes over the last week, but that isn’t this team’s most significant achievement. By forcing the Penguins to six games before overtime elimination at the Coliseum last night despite... May 12, 2013
From IslandersWASHINGTON — There is a bull’s-eye on the back of Rick Nash’s sweater. Everyone but everyone can see that. And in Wednesday night’s third period of the Rangers’ series-equalizing Game 4, 4-3 victory at the Garden,... May 10, 2013
