The New York Rangers have begun the 2011-2012 season on a relatively slow note, beginning 2-1-2 (2 wins, 1 loss, 2 overtime losses), amounting to 6 points. That currently places them in a tie with the New Jersey Devils and the New York Islanders for third place in the Atlantic Division, 6 points behind the front-running Pittsburgh Penguins. The 6 points would also place the Rangers in 9th place in the Eastern Conference, one spot behind the 8th and final playoff spot, currently held by the New York Islanders (due to the Islanders having 3 wins compared to the Rangers having 2 wins).
The Rangers were one of the teams selected before the season began to play their first few games of the 2011-2012 in Sweden. The Rangers’ Swedish-born goalkeeper, Henrik Lundqvist, got a warm reception, but it was the Kings’ center, Anze Kopitar, who stole the show, scoring on Lundqvist in the first period and assisting on the game-winning overtime goal to help the Kings beat the Rangers 3-2 in overtime.
The Rangers stayed in Sweden to play their second game of the season, which resulted in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Anaheim Ducks. Lundqvist delighted the Swedish crowd with a jaw-dropping save on Ducks’ RW Bobby Ryan in the second period, but Ryan got revenge in the overtime shootout, hitting the only goal on the fourth try for the Ducks to give them the victory, giving the Rangers just two points through the first two games of the season.
The New York Rangers came back home to New York, but still played a “road game,” as they played at the New York Islanders, and lost that divisional game to their inner-city rivals 4-2 to fall to 0-1-2 on the season. As a result, they began the season on a 3-game losing streak, tallying just 2 points to fall behind early in the Northeast Division. The main problem for the Rangers in that game was the play of 21-year-old Islanders’ C John Tavares, the overall #1 pick in the 2009 NHL Draft, as he scored four points on 2 goals.
As New York Rangers’ coach John Tortorella and G Henrik Lundqvist have stated, the biggest problem in the game with the Islanders, and with the first three games in general, was that the Rangers were not being disciplined enough out there on the ice. Every time the Rangers gained some momentum, they would kill it with an ill-advised penalty, which caused the Rangers to play one man short and give the other team a power play opportunity. While some of the penalty calls were debatable, the trend has been occurring way too much to think that the Rangers are just getting on the short end of referee calls. As both Tortorella and Lundqvist mentioned, the Rangers have to be more disciplined in order to get more 5-on-5 and power play opportunities of their own to help them win games.
The Rangers have begun turning things around a bit in their last two games, as they went on to defeat the Vancouver Canucks 4-0 and the Calgary Flames 3-2 in overtime, both of them on the road. This has raised their record to its current 2-1-2, giving them a total of 6 points.
The game against Vancouver wasn’t as lopsided as the score would make it appear, however, as the Rangers also didn’t score for the first two periods, and were actually outplayed and out shot quite badly in those two periods. The main reason the Rangers were able to stay in it and were able to put together four goals in the third period, including two within the span of 93 seconds, was because of the outstanding goaltending of G Henrik Lundqvist, who made 40 saves.
The game against Calgary almost turned into an overtime shootout, but thanks to D Ryan McDonagh’s goal with 2 seconds left in overtime, the Rangers came out with a much needed win. McDonagh, who is only in his second professional season, is averaging over 25 minutes of playing time due to the shoulder injury of D Michael Sauer and the concussion injury of D Marc Staal. Once again, G Henrik Lundqvist’s stellar goaltending skills were on display, as he stopped 33 more shots, including stopping Flames’ RW Tom Kostopoulos’ rebound shot from the slot, stopping D Jay Bouwmeester’s drive from the wing, and blocking LW Curtis Glencross’ rebound shot right after the block on Bouwmeester’s shot.
To continue this recent winning streak Saturday in Edmonton against the Oilers, the New York Rangers must continue to get stellar goaltending from G Henrik Lundqvist, as well as limit the penalties they incur, as this is exposing their lack of depth due to the injuries sustained to defensemen Michael Sauer and Marc Staal. In addition, the Rangers are allowing 33.4 shots on goal per game, leading to the constant barrage on Lundqvist, though he has been mostly up to the task so far in the early going. Lundqvist and the Rangers may catch a break against Edmonton, though, as the Oilers have only scored 11 goals in their first 6 games (1.83 goals/game).
However, the Rangers themselves have to gain more consistency offensively, as they’ve scored just 12 goals in their first 5 contests (2.40 goals/game). Their high for goals in a game through the first five games is just 4 goals, and those all came within the final period in their win at Vancouver. The Rangers have been too erratic offensively to this point; if they can get some consistent offense to go along with Lundqvist’s stellar goaltending, the Rangers could go on a run similar to what the Washington Capitals (6-0-0) and Detroit Red Wings (5-0-0) are enjoying to start the season and get right back in the Northeast Division race.
The New York Rangers take on the 2-2 Edmonton Oilers Saturday, October 22 at Rexall Place. Game time is at 10:00 P.M. EDT.
The Rangers may be off to a slow start with only six points to show for their efforts. However, points do not always reflect effort or game play. One has only to look at the goals for and against statistics to realize this. Currently the Rangers stand at 12 and 13. It only takes one bad bounce to change the game.
On the ice the Rangers are captained by Brad Richards. Brad was acquired by the Rangers as a free agent over the summer from the Dallas Stars. Behind the bench stands head coach, John Tortorella. Tortorella is one of the most colorful coaches in hockey and one of the best. This is only his third season with the team, but already he has made a dramatic impact.
Any true Ranger fan will certainly not want to miss any of the action between their city and division rivals the New York Islanders. The matches between these two teams are always intense and hard-hitting. This is one of the most heated rivalries in professional sports.
On Sunday the 6th of November, Rangers fans will have their first chance to see the Winnipeg Jets in action. Although, this is their first season in the NHL, the Jets are not a team to be taken lightly. They are currently only one point behind the Rangers in the standings.
On November 29th, the Pittsburgh Penguins will be in town. Although, not yet in the line-up, Sid “the Kid” Crosby has been cleared for contact in practice. If his progress continues there is no doubt that Ranger fans will have a chance to see the kid back in action. Even without Sid, the Penguins are a force to be reckoned with. They have an impressive 14 points and are currently ranked number 2 in the league.
The Washington Capitals are off to one their most impressive starts ever. Currently undefeated this team will be in town on the 12th of February. Any true hockey fan would not miss the opportunity to see Alex Ovechkin in action.
Fans can see the present Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins in action on the 4th of March. Captain Zdeno Chara and the team are off to a slow start with only six points. However, they have the experience and are ready to fight for their title.
Ranger fans can count on this to be an exciting season as they watch their team strive to improve over their first round playoff knock-out from last season.

Another fresh season of Hockey started this October, there were a lot of player trades and coaching changes moved in the background. One such significant movement for the New York Rangers happened in 2009 when John Tortorella replaced the beleaguered Tom Renney as head coach. Tortorella, better known as “Tort” around the league, has a great championship history when he was coaching the Tampa Bay Lightning, where he led and won the team the 2004 Stanley Cup.
Tort, born June 24, 1958 in Boston, Massachusetts, is an experienced and hard-nosed coach with a championship pedigree. This kind of toughness and experience in the coaching staff is definitely what the Rangers are looking for to go all the way. Fans expect many things from their new head coach. Which can defiantly be seen be as they show their support by buying Rangers tickets to the next game.
One great thing about Tort is that he is not just a coach, he also played hockey as a right wing in the College of Maine. He played along his brother, Jim, who was the goal keeper that time. Jim is now assistant coach for the University of New Hampshire Wildcats.
Tort also played as a professional in minor hockey leagues in the American Coast Hockey League around 1982-1986. He started his coaching career with the AHL’s Rochester Americans and the ECHL’s Virginia Lancers. In 1996, Tort won the Calder Cup with the Rochester Americans.
Tort is known as a very outspoken personality. One that does not mince words against anyone, including the press and his players. He is also known to tactically substitute goal keepers during his stint with the Lightnings. This tactic was used to the hilt during the Lightning’s Stanley Cup run in 2006.
In 2000-2001, Tort was hired by the Lightnings mid-season as a coaching replacement. During that time, the team only won 12 out of 43 games to end the season. The next season, the team ended up third in the regular season but had a losing record that made them ineligible to cross-over to the playoffs.
The 2002-2003 season marked the start of the winning trend for Tort and his Lightnings. They ended the regular season as Southeast Division champions. Unfortunately, they failed to make it past the Devils (4-1) in the 2003 playoffs.
With his fourth season in the team, Tort has finally achieved the toughness and the chemistry that he needed with the Lightning. They were the top seed in the Eastern Conference and was heavily favored against sixth-seeded, Calgary Flames. They managed to squeeze past the Flames four games to three, and won his first ever Stanley Cup.
This season, Tort is eager to infuse young blood in the team. He is taking charge of “re-building” the franchise by combining both veteran and young talent in the fold. He wants his veterans, who are quite young, to get into the spirit of the action and compete for positions in the line-up. He wants rookies who can play both ends, but with emphasis on the defensive end. Rookies will have a great chance if they can prove they have the defensive skills to bolster the Rangers. However, Tortorella said that he will not be forcing anyone in the line-up until the player can prove he is 100% ready to make the transition. With this in mind, you know that every player that hits the ice is 100% ready to compete. Be sure to purchase your Rangers tickets now for the next Rangers regular season game!
The New York Rangers history of 85 years is full of the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.
Joining the NHL in 1926, the New York Rangers became the second team to play in Madison Square Gardens. Although the owner of the stadium, George Lewis Rickard, had promised the New York Americans that they would be the only team, he hired Conn Smythe to put the team together. He only stayed a short time and was fired, but it was no matter because the New York Rangers went on to win their first championship, the American league title, but lost the Stanley Cup finals to the Boston Bruins.
The Rangers stayed on top of their game and won their first Stanley Cup the following year defeating the Montreal Maroons, but they lost again to Boston the following year. Three years later they won their second Stanley Cup, defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs by 3 games to 1. Then in 1940 they won another championship, defeating the Leafs for a second time.
Within the first 13 years of the Rangers history, they won three Stanley Cups, and seemed like they were bound for success. But perhaps the number 13 was an unlucky omen because they did not win so much as even a Division Championship until 1990. Some say that a curse was cast upon the team in 1940 when the owners of Madison Square Gardens burned the mortgage that they had just paid off inside the Stanley Cup.
The Rangers became one of the Original Six teams in 1942 since the other franchises had to fold after losing many players who had left to fight in WW2. Although they did not have a winning season for the next 54 years, the fans were loyal and many legendary players made their mark. Vic Hadfield became the first Ranger and the sixth player in NHL history to score 50 goals in one season in 1972. They reached the Stanley Cup finals that year but lost to Boston despite the efforts of Hadfield, Jean Ratelle, Rod Gilbert and Brad Park.
Many hockey legends played the last few games of their careers for the Rangers, including Phil Esposito (1975 – 1981), Marcel Dionne (1986 – 1989) and Wayne Gretzky (1996-1999). But perhaps the greatest contribution ever made to the Ranger’s playing history was when Mark Messier became the captain of the Rangers in 1991 and led them to the best record in the NHL that year.
After numerous injuries in the 1993 season kept the Rangers out of the playoffs, they came back the next year and finished first overall. In the Eastern Conference finals, the Rangers were down 3 games to 2 and had little hope. A determined captain, Mark Messier, promised the media and the world that the Rangers would win both Game 6 and Game 7. Down 2- 1 in the third period, Messier scored a hat trick to clinch the win. The Ranger went on to win the Stanley Cup that year, despite the Vancouver Canucks fans chanting “1940”, trying to invoke the famous curse.
In the last decade, the Rangers have had star players such as the great Czech player, Jaromir Jagr, who scored 110 points, beating the Ranger’s single season scoring record. Despite some spectacular wins, Rangers fans continue to show their support by purchasing Rangers tickets in the hope of another Stanly Cup victory. In 2010, the franchise decided to honor the Ranger’s history by issuing a Heritage jersey that the team wears every time the Rangers play one of the Original Six teams.
The home of the NHL’s New York Rangers is one of the most famous arenas in the world, that being Madison Square Garden, which is located in the heart of New York City. The original arena was first built in 1879 and was able to fit 10,000 Ranger tickets holders. During this early period the arena was used to stage events like circuses and boxing matches. The arena also had a track used for cycling events which were growing in popularity at the time. Ice hockey, one of the major uses of today’s modern Garden, was also played in the arena. In fact, it was the first indoor rink in the U.S. used for ice hockey. However, after only being opened for eleven years, the Garden closed in 1890.
However, a new Garden was built to replace the first one and it was operational from 1890 until its closing in 1925. Like the first Garden it was used for many different events. Aside from the boxing matches and circuses, the arena was also used for musical performances, opera, and even political conventions. In 1925 the third version of the Garden was opened. It was primarily used for circus performances although other events such as boxing, basketball and hockey were also taking place. This particular version of the Garden has some problems related to seating and ventilation and it was closed in 1967, torn down and the site was replaced with a parking lot.
Today’s version of Madison Square Garden opened in 1968 and is the home of a number of professional sports teams, notably the New Your Rangers. As stated earlier, this arena is one of the most well known in the world. There are many features of this arena which makes it unique when compared to other sports stadiums around the world.
One of the most unique features is the fact that it sits directly above a subway/railroad station which allows easy access for those attending events there. No worries about getting stuck in traffic traveling to a Rangers home game. There is plenty of seating in Madison Square Garden when the New York Rangers play a home game. Just over 18,000 Rangers tickets could be sold watch their favorite hockey team play. A feature about the seating in the Garden is the fact that the rows of seats have a more gradual rise to them which means that there are is less chance of having your view of the games impaired by sitting in front of a tall person. This alone makes the Garden a favorite of sports enthusiasts.
Another feature of Madison Square Garden is the huge High Definition scoreboard. It boasts four large screens above centre ice and 150 smaller screens through out the building. You can always view the action no matter where you are in the building.
Finally, as most hockey fans know, you have to have a treat while watching the game. There are a number of food concessions and you would have no trouble finding your favorite snack or beverage. And if you need a souvenir of your visit you’ll have lots to choose from. There is little wonder why fans love going to Madison Square Garden to cheer on the New York Rangers. It is an experience that will always be memorable, even if the Rangers lose the game.
