The Rangers played both NYC area teams this week, including the Stadium Series against the Islanders last Sunday. I break down all of the games, including thought on the outdoor NHL games as a whole and how special they truly have become. I also take a look at the other games of the week and how the Rangers are rolling four distinct lines and building a group that knows their roles and are able to provide different skill sets to make this team more dynamic!

This week the Rangers played two Canadian teams and got two wins. The third line continues to break out and lead this team as the most consistent two way line and the physicality started to pick up before a game against Montreal that lacked defense. The Stadium Series is up next!

After the all star break reset, the Rangers get the chance to test their game against two tough opponents. With some slow start the boys put up two great efforts and now have a chance to play some get right games against teams on the outside of the playoff picture. I talk about the 3rd and 4th line again and again as well as my thoughts on the all star game!

Only one game to break down from this week with the team on their bye-week and all star weekend! I break this game down for you, including the fight that may spark the season as well as some trade talk and some all star weekend news!

After a long road trip on the West Coast, the team only gathered 3 points this week and came home to play a hurt Vegas team. The Rangers continue their run of poor play and look a bit lazy and uninterested which is starting to be a concern. I break some of it down in this week's episode.

After another painful week of hockey, and a look at the standings... it is clear that the team and players are at a crossroad for the season. Can they right the ship and start playing the game the right way or will they continue to put out less then acceptable efforts?

After a week in hockey that sent me back to the early 2000's, the Rangers picked up only one point in a shootout loss. That was probably the only point this week that they deserved and not even in the game they deserved it in. I break down the team's defensive struggles and the need to get back to basics.

Once again the Rangers go 2 out of 3 for wins on the week but this week showed some deficiencies that the team has in regard to physicality. Plus, another rookie debut and the kids continue to impress and do we have a heart trophy in New York this season?

After another 2-1 week, the Blueshirts are starting to build a team identity! Impressive wins over the Sabers and Caps have the team continuing to feel good and building positive energy into the new year.

Whats going on everyone! Busy week for the blueshirts with 3 games since the last episode! Some good measuring stick opponents that gave the team a test to see where they stand! Listen in to hear my thoughts on the games and some Christmas musings! Enjoy!
