On a snowy Saturday afternoon, the Flyers lost their sixth game in a row, falling 6-3 to the Rangers. Bad goaltending, bad defensive structure, and bad special teams were again the story, and the Flyers remain in free fall.
The basics
First period: 6:22 – Travis Konecny (Trevor Zegras, Travis Sanheim), 7:05 – Artemi Panarin (Vincent Trocheck, Alexis Lafreniere), 7:26 – Mika Zibanejad (JT Miller, Braden Schneider), 8:25 – Brennan Othmann (Will Cuylle) Second period: 5:38 – Zibanejad ...

The Philadelphia Flyers are without yet another player as center Rodrigo Abols had to exit Saturday afternoon’s game against the New York Rangers after a devastating and nasty-looking injury to his leg.
During the first period of this fairly important game against the division rivals, Abols went into a board battle for a loose puck with Rangers winger Gabe Perreault. Initially, it looked like a fairly harmless play but as the Flyers centerman turned around, it appears that the toe of his ...

The Philadelphia Flyers are back home for exactly one game and it just so happens to be a fairly big one. The New York Rangers front office had to write their fans a letter for the second time and this is the first game where the team have the opportunity to respond. And, well, the Flyers have issues of their own with a hefty losing streak. Should be a, well, interesting one?

The New York Rangers have had a very tough run as of late and rough past two seasons. Certain changes haven't worked out and GM Chris Drury put out a statement that the team will be going through a retooling. That could mean a lot for many of the players. While Artemi Panarin is likely gone, Jonathan Quick is most likely in his last season with the Rangers or the league, and some other tradeable pieces could be on the way out, some talented players will be staying put to build around. This sho...

The New York Rangers are out of it already this season, and changes are on the way. How sure are we? Very sure, as it's not often you see a general manager of a team send out a letter to the fanbase giving them fair warning that some roster changes are on the way. Full rebuild? No, it doesn't sound like that, but more so a roster re-tool for GM Chris Drury. The Rangers enter the weekend dead last in the Eastern Conference with a 20-22-6 record, and this is what Drury had to say on Friday: With...

It’s only the middle of January, but the New York Rangers are already looking to put the 2025-26 season behind them and turn their attention to the future. A future without Artemi Panarin, it appears. According to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, the struggling Blueshirts don’t plan to offer the star winger a contract extension as the…

The Vancouver Canucks ' pending unrestricted free agent Kiefer Sherwood is on the trade block, and they've been taking offers from teams all over the league. The New York Rangers are one of those teams that put a deal on the table recently. But their announcement on Friday that they're now into a 'retool' period makes it sort of doubtful that they'll be buying in on a 30-year-old player who is in such high demand at the deadline, and is on an expiring contract. Neverthe...

According to insider Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet , Drury met with players personally before releasing the letter. As part of this retool process, Artemi Panarin was informed that he will n...

The Philadelphia Flyers were a resilient team in the first half of the season.
Through their first 41 games, the Flyers only lost consecutive games five times, and only one time were those back-to-back losses in regulation. Their longest losing streak was three games, but they earned a point in each of those losses against top teams in the Vegas Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes.
So when the Flyers dominated the Ducks again in a Trevor Zegras revenge game to end the first half o...

When the history of the New York Rangers is written, Artemi Panarin will be remembered as one of the organization's best free agent signings. The time has come for him to go, and the return may not be what we're hoping for.

*Boy this team looks real bad right now, huh? Last night’s game in Pittsburgh did not do a lot to inspire any confidence that they’re going to figure it out any time soon. Rangers tomorrow; one assumes a large number of their annoying fans will be taking the train down. Should be a real party. RECAP !

The New York Rangers may have hit rock bottom with that ugly 10-2 loss to the Boston Bruins last weekend, but they haven't been able to stop the bleeding yet. They're now winless in five straight, and have just one win in their last nine. They're edging closer and closer to official "SELL" territory (if they aren't there already). The biggest name, of course, that GM Chris Drury could move, is pending unrestricted free agent—and Rangers top scorer—Artemi Panarin. It doesn't appear as if ...

The Edmonton Oilers have a problem. They’re pressed up tight to the salary cap, and while they’ve been able to manoeuvre by activating Jake Walman and Tristan Jarry from the Long-Term Injured Reserve by placing an injured Adam Henrique there, they won’t be able to do that forever. In fact, when the time comes to…
