With both New York Rangers’ forwards Chris Drury (concussion) and Brandon Dubinsky (3-6 weeks) expected to miss some time, the team is all of a sudden real thin. According to Andrew Gross at Ranger Rants: Chris Drury (concussion) was in the building briefly and rode the stationary bicycle, which is a good sign. Coach John Tortorella would not rule him out for Thursday’s game against the...

Today’s number… 74 Perusing the TSN.ca listing of injuries , that is how many players are identified as being on injured reserve. Only one of the NHL’s 30 teams has no player on injured reserve – the New York Rangers, but watching the way Chris Drury staggered off the ice the other night after taking Curtis Glencross’ shoulder to his head on his first shift in a 3-1 loss...

Most of the Rangers on the bench didn’t see the hit, but the ones who did - and some of them were upstairs - were incensed by Curtis Glencross’ blindside, away-from-the-puck hit on a helpless Chris Drury that left the Ranger captain laid out with a concussion and out of action for who knows how long. John Tortorella wouldn’t get into it when asked if the league should step in, but...

That "record" the Penguins tied last night with their seven consecutive road win to start the season? Hmmm not quite... As has been reported in various outlets, including this forum, the Penguins tied the NHL record for road wins without a loss at the start of the season. The mark is supposedly shared by the 1940-41 Maple Leafs, the 1985-86 Flyers, the 2005-06 Red Wings and the current New...

When the New York Rangers signed Chris Drury as a free agent in the summer of 2007, Drury was coming off a season in which he scored 37 goals. Unfortunately, Drury, who was named the team captain in 2008, has not come close to reaching the level he did in 2007 and has looked out of place offensively this season. Through the team’s first 15 games, the Trumbull, CT-native has just 5 points (2g,...

The Rangers have gone from the Garden to the airport for this week's Western Canadian swing, and the 1-0 victory over Boston will make this flight is a whole lot more pleasant, even if plenty of icepacks will be making the rounds on the plane. One goal leaves some of the Rangers' issues unaddressed, although two points certainly help. Along those same lines, so does the return of Marian Gaborik, who...

from Larry Brooks of the NY Post, The personnel is different this year, so is the head coach, and so is the role that Chris Drury has been assigned to fill on a Rangers team that brought an 8-3-1 record into last night’s match against the Islanders at the Coliseum. For no longer is Drury in a top-six offensive position up front, skating now as he does as the third-line center. No longer is Drury,...

Scratch Marian Gaborik from the Ranger lineup for the first time this season, meaning the Rangers may have to tap some new sources for a little finish. P.A. Parenteau, the AHL’s leading scorer with eight goals in nine games, arrived from Hartford last night and will take the open spot on right wing, while Donald Brashear stayed on for extra skating this morning and will be the healthy scratch....

In virtually a mirror image of Monday’s drubbing at the hands of the Sharks, it was the start that hurt the Rangers this time, something they couldn’t overcome with a solid final 40 in a 4-2 loss to New Jersey. That, and, as I wrote in my game story, Marc Staal and Dan Girardi had probably their roughest day at the Garden since this . Afterward, John Tortorella was asked about secondary...

by Christopher Botta Filed under: Rangers , Sharks NEW YORK -- With the Yankees in the ALCS, the Giants contending for another Super Bowl appearance and the ups and downs of Mark Sanchez captivating the city, the 7-1 start of the Rangers had fallen under the New York radar. So it's only fair not to make too big a deal of the Rangers getting their doors blown off by San Jose on Monday night in a 7-3...

Early season trends often do not last for the whole season, but one of the more surprising ones so far is that the New York Rangers are scoring. They have more goals than any other team in the NHL with 24. They have averaged four goals per game, which ties them for the league lead with the Atlanta Thrashers (who have fewer games played). This is a surprise because last season the Rangers scored the...
