* Before we start anything, thoughts and prayers to all those impacted by the events in lower Manhattan yesterday. I think as a whole we’ve become somewhat desensitized to these events, but hearing some of the Rangers talk about the fact that they didn’t know whether or not their

Rangers picked up a much needed win with great help from its “fourth line”.

* I find it hard to believe that we’re here. Seriously. I never would have expected -- even in my most pessimistic of views before the year began -- the Rangers would start their first 10 games with a 2-6-2 record. It’s almost unfathomable with the talent on this

* The New York Rangers might have a disappointing 1-3 record to start the year, but this loss and the loss to the Avalanche were somewhat unfortunate. In both contests the Rangers generated possession, scoring chances, and raw offense and just couldn’t finish. I know people don’t like to

* You had to know something crazy was coming in terms of the lineup. Anytime Alain Vigneault admits to the media he’s “mulling something over” you know it’s going to be a special bend of crazy that we won’t figure out until the last minute. Sunday night was
