Hockey Blog | ESPN New York — Rangers If you think you see Henrik Lundqvist riding a Gray Line bus around Gotham today, it's probably him. Lundqvist gets a bus named after him and he'll be on board for the inaugural ride. Blueshirt Banter discussses D Michael Del Zotto as an X Factor for 2010-11. Yesterday the Rangers signed LW Tim Kennedy to a one-year contract. Blueshirt Banter goes a little deeper into Kennedy's performance using some advanced metrics.

New York Rangers September 3, 2010Del Zotto wants the responsibility
Rangers Rants | Bergen Record — Michael Del Zotto joined the Rangers informal group workouts for the first time today and the defenseman has a couple of bullet-points for improvement in his second season. “A few things,” said Del Zotto, who’s been skating on his own for almost four weeks. “I want to be consistently tougher in the defensive end and keeping the power play consistent. We started out red hot at the beginning of the year. The biggest thing about being the quarterback is taking responsibility for keeping it consistent. It’s a special teams game.” Del Zotto and newly-signed Tim Kennedy were the newcomers on the i...
New York Rangers September 2, 2010Avery has ‘different mentality,’ wants Rangers to regain ‘identity’
Rangers Rants | Bergen Record — It’s September, which means we’re getting to hockey season. Today was Day 3 of the larger, more organized Rangers’ informal group workouts and 11 players - Blue: Brandon Dubinsky, Evgeny Grachev, Steve Eminger, Pavel Valentenko, Sean Avery; Red: Todd White, Matt Gilroy, Wade Redden, Ryan Callahan, Artem Anisimov - were on the ice.

New York Rangers September 1, 2010Kennedy: Rangers a “good fit”
Rangers Rants | Bergen Record — Tim Kennedy, who grew up in Buffalo and played his first NHL season for the Sabres, is heading downstate to the Rangers. The 24-year-old plans to arrive at the team’s practice facility Wednesday to meet team executives and join his new teammates on the ice. It’s somewhat of a surprising ending to his summer after the Sabres waived him and bought him out for $333,333 after an arbitrator awarded him $1 million for this upcoming season. The Rangers signed him to a one-year, one-way (which was very important to Kennedy and a big part of the breakdown in negotiations with the Sabres) deal worth $5...

New York Rangers August 30, 2010Kennedy agrees to terms with Rangers
Rangers Rants | Bergen Record — While many of my Rangers’ beat brethren are at the practice facility today as the countdown to the start of training camp on Sept. 17 really gets underway, I have pulled Giants’ backup duty today so I’m in the shadow of the vanilla-named (for now) New Meadowlands Stadium. However, I pulled off the impressive feat (not really) of tweeting about the Rangers agreeing to terms with ex-Sabres forward Tim Kennedy while, at the same time, participating in a media scrum around Giants safety Deon Grant. On the surface, signing Kennedy, 24, who was waived by the Sabres on Aug. 2, four days after he was...

- Getting crowded Rangers Rants | Bergen Record Between players gathering before heading to the Traverse City Prospect Tournament this Friday and more regulars coming in, the Rangers’ practice facility was a fairly crowded place today. Over 20 players taking part in a 6-on-6 scrimmage with most staying for a second on-ice session that concentrated on conditioning skating and shuttle drills. Marian Gaborik is due in town today and could join his teammates on the ice tomorrow. Erik Christensen and Alex Frolov are still absent but due in this week as well. Other than restricted free agent Marc Staal, everybody else is essentially here, though...
- So, wadda ya think? Rangers Report | Journal News I’m back … temporarily … from my vacation. As always, I want to thank those who stepped in with guest blogs, and those who hung out here when nothing was happening. But we’re getting closer now, closer to actual, you know, hockey. And I’m still trying to figure out the Rangers. We’ll do more analysis and over-analysis [...]
- Training camp preview: Defensemen Rangers Rants | Bergen Record So here were the things that captured my attention this morning: My older daughter starts high school tomorrow and my younger one starts fifth grade so there’s last-minute Back-to-School stuff to be done. And the Jets finally signed Darrelle Revis, meaning my nice, relaxing Sunday with my brother’s family in Boston was, well, a lot nicer and more relaxing than any of the Jets’ writers. But that also got me thinking: with Revis signed, and the Derek Jeter/Joe Girardi contract situations not coming into play until after baseball’s postseason, that leaves the Rangers’ impasse with Marc Staal as t...
