* Sometimes it just isn’t your night. You can say the Rangers were sloppy. You can say they were disjointed. You could easily say they’re going to need some time to find chemistry with one another. I think all of that factored into why they lost the game Thursday

Stock Going Way Up Filip Chytil — I’m not sure what else I can say about Chytil at this point. There’s gushing and then there’s just overwhelming. I created this heading simply to reiterate just how good he’s been. I would make the argument that he’s

Stock Going Up Neal Pionk and Anthony DeAngelo -- Much like Adam Clendening last year, both Pionk and DeAngelo aren’t just playing very well while fighting for roster spots, they’re doing it while veterans are struggling. DeAngelo has had some adventures in his own end, but continues to

Stock Going Up Filip Chytil — I thought Neal Pionk’s opening preseason game was impressive on Monday, but it had nothing on Chytil’s. There’s going to be a lot of eyes on Chytil this preseason for a plethora of reasons. I’m not sure there’s been a

Every year I do a stock market report on the Rangers during the preseason. I think it’s a good way to look at both the way the team and the players who are actually fighting for roles on the team. Anyway, here we go. Stock Trending Up Neal Pionk:

Normally Joe does his notes after games, but he is currently in Europe looking for evidence of how extraterrestrial life has influenced governments all over the world. So you’ll have to put up with my takes on yesterday’s gutting Game 5 loss. This should be fun. * I’ve

* It’s shocking, really, that on a night when the head coach does what he should have done from Game 1 of the First Round (at least from a deployment standpoint) the Rangers play maybe their best game of the playoffs. If it wasn’t the best it was certainly

* In a lot of ways, I think that game might be the best thing to happen to the Rangers in this series. It should act as a wake up call, the blaring alarm clock, or, at the very least, a stern reminder that Ottawa will beat the bad side of

* There were a few moments Saturday night where the atmosphere gave me the chills. The first was before the game even started, where The Garden was losing its mind as the Rangers came out onto the ice. I’ve often called this my “thank you” moment. Where the fans can

* I’ve watched more than my share of playoff overtimes with my brother in law over the years. Those moments are probably similar for all of you as well. Last night, like all the other nights, we’re both on separate couches howling at the television and trying to make

* This has been a very strange series. Let’s get something out of the way right now: Game 4 was the best the Rangers have played in this series. Shocking that it came when they ran a lineup of full skill, but we’ll get to that later. There’s
