Rangers News and Notes: Afternoon Edition

Here are some news and notes this afternoon, since the Giants are getting their hats handed to them, maybe some of you are looking to hockey to save you. I am here to help:

The Toronto Star talks about Michael Del Zotto's memorable trip to the Air Canada Centre.

Slam! Sports up in Canada is also talking about our Zots.

This article is mostly about the Islanders, but it mentions that now that the Outhouse Project has likely been flushed, if the Fish Sticks were to move to Brooklyn or Queens, they would likely need to pay the Rangers a territorial fee. I love it, start passing the hat, Uniondale.

This one is a couple of days old, but NESN talks about how Marian Gaborik and Vinny Prospal have brought scoring back to Broadway.

Sportsnet.ca talks about the success of the new stars on Broadway.

Finally, some news off the "tweets"

From Andrew Gross:

Tortorella says a certain amount of frustration has crept into Christopher Higgins' game. Plus, the left wing has stopped taking shots.

Sean Avery skating on Chris Drury's second line at practice with RW Ryan Callahan.

From Jim Cerny:

Several players, and Torts, believe that playing an elite team like Sharks tomorrow will hold attention and focus better than it's been

Torts on recent play: "Every team goes through this, these concentration problems..we're trying to go up this way b4 we hit a bump"

On SJ

Torts is so right. The first five to ten minutes of Mondays contest is very, very key. If they come out sloppy or sleeping I think the Sharks will make them pay more than usual. Just a hunch.

What’s the feeling in NY about Michael Del Zotto? Is he going to be sticking around or will they be sending him back to juniors tomorrow?

Well I guess my question was answered about anyone on this site unsure of whether or not Del Zotto has secured his spot on this team.

There is no reason to send him down, I don’t think there is anything for him to gain from it. He’s here to stay.

Higgins

This guy needs to score. He’s been playing so well and had too many excellent changes to not have a goal yet. I was worried that he might start to get frustrated.. maybe he’s just waiting for me to pick him up on my fantasy team.
