... all I’ll be trying to do.” No Ranger other than Gaborik or Prospal has scored since Brian Boyle’s goal 6:18 into the third period against Atlanta on Nov. 12. With a center spot once again vacated, the Rangers will fill it with Ryan Callahan, who couldn’t remember the last time he played the middle except perhaps in a preseason game a year or two back. It’s...

... - quick, off the top of your head, can you even remember who it was? It was two Thursdays ago, Brian Boyle’s third-period goal in a loss to Atlanta. Since then, Prospal and Gaborik have combined for five goals and the rest of the team none. Tortorella was asked tonight about giving Avery a shot on the left of Prospal and Gaborik, and the coach didn’t seem thrilled about...

... anyone else in faceoffs. Of the 70 faceoffs last night, Prospal took 41 of them - he was 20-21; Brian Boyle was 2-8 and Torts singled that out. “That hurts, faceoffs hurt you,” he said. “It makes me overextend on Prospal because Brian wasn’t winning faceoffs, and that’s something he has to do.” As for Parenteau, the coach explained that “I...

... lot of mixing and matching on John Tortorella’s part, with Vinny Prospal, Artem Anisimov and Brian Boyle taking the center duties and Tortorella speaking today about how he’s curious to see how Anisimov handles the extra minutes and responsibility. I’m curious to see how the Rangers do in the faceoff circle. And while the coach said the first power-play unit will...

... won him the Hobey Baker award. Drury also won the same prestigious award in 1998. The trade for Brian Boyle and the addition of Enver Lisin from the Phoenix Coyotes were also an integral part of the off-season moves. Marian Gaborik, the Minnesota Wild’s star winger, was one of the most coveted players this off-season. However, there was a huge question about his past injuries and...

Forget about Marc Staal and Dan Girardi being split up, at least for the start of this game - John Tortorella had been contemplating the change and had them apart in practice yesterday, but he'll begin tonight's game here in Montreal status quo on the blue line, and that duo can expect to see time against the Canadiens' Mike Cammalleri-Scott Gomez-Brian Gionta line. Donald Brashear will be...

Del Zotto, a plus-three, is tied with Philadelphia's Matt Carle for the NHL lead in scoring by defensemen with eight points (3-5). He leads the rookie-scoring race by one point over the Islanders' John Tavares. He has been on the ice for all eight of the Rangers' five-on-four...

Tortorella seemed most troubled by the crosscheck Brian Boyle took at the top of Lundqvist’s crease with the Rangers already down a man, setting up Toronto with a 5-on-3 for 55 seconds, but the one I found more troubling was Donald Brashear’s charging penalty in the offensive-zone corner 21 seconds after Ian White had made...
