For all of us wondering if Islanders GM Mathieu Darche was going to invest in his currently-playoff-position team or commence with a selloff, the last two days gave us a clear answer. The first-year GM is not going big-game hunting, but he is managing assets (and spending a little cap space) to bring in veteran […]

The Rangers face a difficult decision with Schneider as he can be a part of their future, or fetch a hearty return ahead of the 2026 trade deadline.
The Rangers won a game at MSG, Matthew Robertson went coast-to-coast, and the kids flashed—but the lack of jam, odd deployment choices, and deadline vibes still loomed over everything.
The Carolina Hurricanes , along with the Anaheim Ducks , are the two teams in unique positions to add more than one major piece at the deadline, whether that be a rental or not, as they have tons of cap space and are in great positions in the standings. The Hurricanes more so than the Ducks as Carolina has 69 points, 12 more than the Philadelphia Flyers, the closest team that could kick them out of a playoff spot. The Hurricanes have a strong roster that has the team third in goals and seventh...
The Rangers’ sell-off has begun: Carson Soucy is dealt across town to the Islanders, ending a short, uneven tenure and signaling what’s likely still to come.

With New England still digging out from a big snowstorm and reveling in a return to the Super Bowl, the Bruins played a bad Rangers team in Manhattan last night. Things were going OK, with David Pastrnak recording his 900th NHL point and the B’s taking a lead into the third period…and then things went […]
The Islanders rebounded from a blah road trip and a worse return home by shutting out the Flyers — with a goal from each special team! — but the most interesting news of the day was confirmation that they were making a trade…with the {plugs nose} Rangers, of all teams. They acquired pending UFA defenseman […]

In an NHL rarity, the New York Rangers and New York Islanders are about to pull off a trade. According to a report from insider Vince Mercogliano of The Athletic, the Rangers will be sending pending unrestricted free agent defenceman Carson Soucy to the Isles. I'm hearing #NYR are on the verge of their first move of the retool. A trade that sends Carson Soucy to the #Isles is brewing. No official announcement yet as they work out the particulars, but expect him to be held out of the lineup ton...
The New York Rangers are ready to shake things up and are reportedly willing to consider offers for Alexis Lafreniere. The latest link has the Montreal Canadiens being floated as a potential trade destination for the former first overall pick. Sportsnet’s Ron MacLean floated the idea because of Lafreniere’s connection to Canadiens executive Jeff Gorton, who drafted him first overall in 2020, and Elliotte Friedman has also suggested the New York Rangers could at least discuss what a move might ...
