My son heard this trade rumor... Martin Hanzal for Moore and Miller and mid round draft pick. Hanzal is 27 year old, 6’6” 230lb center from Coyotes with 56.5 faceoff %, 15g 25a 40 pts last year. He has 105 hits this year.
Andrew Gross@AGrossRecord · 24 mins24 minutes ago Rangers confirm Henrik Lundqvist will be in net tonight vs. Panthers. Lee Stempniak goes back into lineup and J.T. Miller will be a scratch.

If they can sustain this luck through June, then God bless them. But the defense is completely unable to get the puck out of the defensive zone and eventually that's going to catch up to them in a big way. It looks like it has already against the truly elite teams in the East. Feels like 2011-12 all over again.
While I didn't think Carl Hagelin was going to score on that penalty shot, still I was hoping for something/anything more than just shooting into Luongo's pads….oh that's right, he was looking to go 5 hole, deadly sniper that he is… Bruins on Wed.
Oh I'll take it Matt - 2 pts. is 2 pts. I'll chalk this one up to it was the Panthers and give them the benefit of the doubt. But they need to tighten up the 'D' come Wednesday and not allow a repeat of those easy backdoor "tap-in" goals they gave up during that 3-0 shutout in Boston. And I expect them to come out with a lot more jump out of the box than they did tonight.
Joe, definitely need to tighten the d, especially exiting our own zone...need to turn on our speed and we will beat the B's
Just wanted to take a quick assessment here of my fellow Jets/Rangers fans... If you were negotiating a deal with a supernatural entity, just like Joe Namath did for SB III would you take this trade... A gut wrenching Patriots Super Bowl win this past Sunday for a NY Rangers Stanley Cup championship in Summer 2015?
Understanding we haven't been to a Super Bowl in 46 years, my answer is we probably never will, fuck the Pats and LGR!
Size, great hands, great vision, calm, mature, huge wingspan, good forechecker and back checker...will learn faceoffs...will only improve, we got him for nothing...by the way those that complain he has no shot, watch his one-timer rocket last night
It is mind-boggling to me that this team is only three points behind the Islanders with a game in-hand.
