I stopped drinking long ago. Not that I was ever much of a drinker anyway. If we get more Ranger playoff games like Monday night, I may need to hit that bottle again!

A slow-starting game that was rather dull turned fast midway through the 2nd period, and led by the scoring of Brian Boyle and the great goaltanding of likely Vezina trophy winner Henrik Lundqvist, the Rangers shut out the Ottawa Senators to take game 3 of the Eastern quarterfinals 1-0

What a great night for the Rangers and their fans. Beating up on the Flyers clinches the Eastern Conference for the Blue Shirts but it was much more then that!

The 5-3 win over the Flyers also capped of a perfect 6-0 season series for the Rangers

The single most underrated sport in this American sporting landscape will begin its season this Thursday.  No, I'm not talking Curling - though I could, and maybe should be - I'm talking NHL Hockey. Surprised it's starting?  Don't worry, no one else has noticed yet either.  The New York Rangers will begin Friday afternoon in Europe.  The Rangers are coming off a disappointing first round exit from the playoffs last season.  Can they improve?  What should you expect from the Blue Shirts?  I'll give you everything you need to know in this New York Rangers 2011-2012 season preview.

It was a pretty cool night in Albany Tuesday night when the New York Rangers faced off against the New Jersey Devils in preseason hockey action.  In what was a hotly contested, surprisingly chippy affair the Devils emerged with the 2-1 overtime win.

The New York Rangers were bounced from the Stanley Cup Playoffs by the Washington Capitals today.  Predictably, the Rangers managed to bow out of the playoffs as an eight seed in as heartbreaking and depressing a way as you could in a five game series.  But despite the heartbreak now, the Rangers have an unquestionably bright future.

The NHL Playoffs begin tonight - and so begins professional sports’ best championship tournament.  The next couple weeks will feature all the best hockey has to offer, without as much of the knucklehead stuff.  It’s several rounds of wire to wire back and forth exciting games, like no other sport can offer.  It’s just a better on-field (or ice) product than the others.  As a Ranger fan, I’m pretty excited that they even made it into the race for Lord Stanley’s Cup.  And as I reflect on the season it occurs to me, the league’s best TEAM, is an 8 seed – and is favored to get bounced in the first round.
