Haggerty inks contract; Talbot to start; No leadership void sans Callahan
Today's New York Rangers notes.
A lot of good things have actually happened since the Rangers dropped a disappointing game to the Hurricanes on Tuesday night. The Flyers, Capitals, Maple Leafs, and Canadians all lost. The only team within striking distance to pick up points was the Blue Jackets. Essentially, while there's never a good time to lose to a bad team, especially during a stretch run, the Rangers might have picked the 'best time.' The team will get a chance to rebound Thursday night against a hot Wild team. Here are your morning notes.
