Sykora is "a real one." Lafrenière is trending toward staying. And someone floated Brady Tkachuk again. Here's this week in Rangers media.
Hard to be mad when Gabe Perreault goes off for a hat trick. But the Rangers keep winning themselves out of good lottery positioning.

Prior to the drop of the puck on Saturday evening, the Tampa Bay Lightning accomplished their season goal. Thanks to the Detroit Red Wings losing to the New York Rangers, the Lightning clinched a spot in the 2026 NHL playoffs. Then they went out and scored three third period goals to beat the Boston Bruins, 3-1.
If you ever need a game that defines the 2025-26 Tampa Bay Lightning season, it was tonight’s. If you’re looking for a detailed recap of the game – here ya go – instead, we want t...

One down.
With a fanbase collectively pleading for signs of a pulse, the Red Wings mostly delivered in Thursday’s victory over the Flyers. It wasn’t a perfect effort, but they started on time, they played physical, they put the game away late. We’ll take it, gladly.
The reward? Even higher stakes.
Detroit is now tied for the second Wild Card position, with Ottawa holding the tiebreaker by virtue of more regulation wins. The Senators’ win on Thursday was about the only blemish in...
A fifth-round pick putting up historic playoff numbers. A reclamation project finding his game at the right time. Two Rangers prospects to know heading into the OHL's second round.
A loss that was actually fine, a draft positioning update, and some real questions about J.T. Miller's leadership—on the same night he was given the Mr. Ranger Award.

Look at the Devils delivering maximum damage to a pair of Metropolitan Division rivals this week, although in very different ways. First, on Tuesday, they rolled over and played dead for a hapless Rangers team that got two points that won’t help them in their race to the bottom for Gavin McKenna. Forty-eight hours later […]
First period
It’s really nice to see how aggressively the defencemen attack opponents in the neutral zone. That was the whole point of having a mobile defence, and they’re finally beginning to make use of it.
Jacob Fowler missed the linesman arm going up for an icing and came out to play the puck … right to the stick of a Rangers forward. There are still some things for him to work on.
Juraj Slafkovský escapes his battle in the corner with the puck, but caught Vladislav Gavrik...
The Rangers late season win streak stops at three as Montreal inches closer to securing a playoff spot.
J.T. Miller and his wife, Natalie, made the largest Garden of Dreams donation that any player has made in franchise history.

Game 75: Montreal Canadiens @ New York Rangers
Start time: 7:00 PM EDT / 4:00 PM PDT In the Canadiens region: TSN2 (English), RDS (French) In the Rangers region: MSG Streaming: ESPN+, RDS, TSN+
The Canadiens have made a habit of beating some good teams in the last few weeks, getting their defensive game together just in time for a tough portion of their schedule. Tonight it’s a bad club they take on at Madison Square Garden, one of the two in the NHL to be eliminated from playo...
The New York Rangers traded away several players during the 2025-26 season to kick off their retool. Artemi Panarin, Carson Soucy, Sam Carrick, and Brennan Othmann were all dealt by the Rangers this campaign. With the Rangers retooling, it would not be shocking if more of their players get traded this summer. Zibanejad could be a trade candidate to watch, as it is no secret that the Rangers want to get younger. If the 32-year-old center ends up being willing to waive his no-movement clau...
Annoying wins, Othmann discourse, and a deep dive with Scott Wheeler on what the Rangers actually have—and don’t.
