We keep politics off this site as a rule. We’ve done a pretty masterful job of it, considering the way this election turned into a full-on circus that impacted all of our lives. In fact, I want to thank all of you for helping make sure hockey remained a

The Dylan McIlrath saga ended like many long, drawn-out things do: With a flop. On Tuesday the Rangers alleviated themselves of the McIlrath headache they gave themselves by trading him to Florida for Steven Kampfer and a conditional 7th round pick. As I said on Twitter, pretend the Rangers lost

* It’s a classic trap game. The Rangers are streaking red-hot having won five games in a row. The Canucks are about as cold as cold can be, loser of nine straight. It’s a trap, guys. We knew it was going to be a trap. * This was one of

* The Rangers have now truly spanked some of the best teams in the league. They ran through the Lightning like a hot knife through butter Sunday and then did the same thing to the Blues on Tuesday. The Ranger's offense scored 11 goals in those two games and

* When I complain about poor lineup decisions or defensive pairings from Alain Vigneault I’m often met with things like “well the Rangers are winning games so it doesn’t matter.” Friday afternoon my complaints about the defensive pairs was met with “the Rangers are 5-2 so you’re not
