The San Jose Sharks didn’t bring the team’s best game to this one, but the team did what it needed to do to win in the end. The Sharks beat the visiting New York Rangers by a final score of 3-1, to move into second place in the Western Conference wild card race.
These regulation wins are important, since all the teams in the wild card race are so closely bunched together. Regulation wins get a heavier weight than wins overall, which means every single regulation win the Sharks can ge...

San Jose showed exactly what a real youth movement looks like, while the Rangers took penalties, chased the puck, and offered another grim preview of life after the sell-off.

The New York Rangers have been discussing multiple trades the past few weeks and one Ranger who is drawing the most trade interest is two-way center, Vincent Trocheck Trocheck, 32, is one of the few Rangers' trade candidates who doesn't have a full no-movement clause. He holds a 12-team no-trade list so there's certainly some say in the matter, but GM Chris Drury has some options if he wants to pull the trigger. Trocheck's appeared in 38 games this season, scoring 11 times and adding 21 points...

The San Jose Sharks and the New York Rangers have been linked together a lot in headlines over the past few weeks, mostly when it comes to trade rumors. There are rumors that the Sharks could be secret suitors for Artemi Panarin, the 34-year-old winger who’s on an expiring contract. There are also rumors that the Sharks could be in the market for a young defenseman, perhaps Braden Schneider, a 24-year-old defenseman who already has 337 NHL games under his belt.
Of the two, Schneider is a ...

With the New York Rangers new 'retooling' plan going into effect, several notable names have become prime trade fodder. Not the least of which is a former No. 1 overall draft pick, Alexis Lafreniere. After what looked like a potential breakout season two years ago, Lafreniere has slipped back down into the 'big disappointment' category, and just looks like one of those players who needs a fresh start elsewhere. The same could be said for Seattle Kraken center Shane Wright. We heard earli...

There is one player on the New York Rangers who is seemingly good as gone, and that's Artemi Panarin. While he has control over where he goes and will very likely be choosing a team with a chance to hoist the Stanley Cup, it will also likely reduce his return because of this. Panarin is in the final year of his deal at $11.6 million AAV and has 19 goals and 56 points in 50 games. The 34-year-old has been one of the best offensive players over the last decade and hasn't been able to win the Cup...

The New York Rangers have had another poor season and as they're three games under .500 and falling quickly out of contention for a playoff spot, they are ready to retool. That could mean a lot of players are on their way out, including a couple of defensemen in Braden Schneider and Carson Soucy. David Pagnotta said, "Braden Schneider and Carson Soucy are believed to be trade candidates for the Rangers." While Vladislav Gavrikov and Adam Fox aren't expected to be going anywhere, the rest could...

The New York Rangers are open for business and GM Chris Drury is looking to totally flip his roster upside down. This is expected to be a heavy retool and not a rebuild, but it's to the point now that Drury has sat down and met with everyone on his team who has a no-movement clause to see if they are open to a change of scenery. While many of the Rangers veterans could be moved ahead of the deadline, the big name everyone is wondering about is former first-overall pick, Alexis Lafreniere. The ...

It seems like any time Artemi Panarin’s name has come up with the phrase “potentially available” near it, Blackhawks fans have had the Jackson 5 ready to go.
Yes, the New York Rangers are entering a likely 6-7 teardown period during which it appears any/all of their pending free agents will be available for trade (maybe some of their veterans with term as well). The reports that Artemi Panarin, in the final year of his contract, will not receive another contract from the Blue Shirts has l...

The New York Rangers are open for business, as we know. There aren't many players on the roster who they won't be listening on, though five have no-move clauses, and we already know of two Blueshirts who will not be open to waiving those. The San Jose Sharks , meanwhile, are a team heading in the other direction. Their ascension up the standings this season has them battling for a playoff spot, and they could be looking to supercharge it with a couple of additions from the Rangers. ...

Trocheck is the kind of player that every contender wants. But the Rangers are not a contender, so he's not a player who shouldn't be here after the trade deadline.

The New York Rangers are open for business, which could mean some significant changes are coming to the core of their roster. First things first, they made it clear to Artemi Panarin they won't be offering him a contract extension, so he's priority number one on the trade market, however, don't be surprised to see general manager Chris Drury put a former number one overall draft pick on the table. Word is, Drury is open to offers on Alexis Lafreniere, and there's growing speculation throughout...
