9/20 | 8:04AM: David Quinn spoke with the media after the game and said (NYR Game Notes):

On the play of Filip Chytil…"Chytil obviously showed a lot of spurts, a lot of good moments for him. He's an explosive player and he's a threatening player every time he has the puck out there. Good to see him out there in an exhibition game and get a game under his belt. It's nice to get a goal. Obviously, it's been duly-noted how we feel about him and what a big part of our future he is."

On the play of Tony DeAngelo…"Tony has played well. Tony is a guy that's got an awful lot of skill and he's still young for a defenseman. He played an awful lot of minutes the past two years and we want to continue to work with him and make him a better player because we think there's a lot there."

On his first game at MSG…"I said to the guys, I've coached in this building, I've stood here before. So maybe it makes me a little bit more comfortable, but it certainly didn't take away from the moment. Coaching the Rangers at Madison Square Garden, it's pretty special."

Through the first few days of training camp under David Quinn, Kevin Hayes said that the new Rangers coach is "very vocal" and "always teaching." (NY Post)

Chris Kreider and Brady Skjei said that there was constant communication between the players and the new coach and Skjei noted that Quinn "listens, too, if you know what I mean." (NY Post)

Hayes said that things that "should have been addressed and weren't" were now being addressed under Quinn and that "everyone is held accountable." (NY Post)

He added that "you are going to work hard or you're not going to play." (NY Post)

The Rangers have announced their lineup for tomorrow's game against the Flyers at MSG:

3PM: David Quinn told reporters that Mika Zibanejad had the wind knocked out of him but is "fine" and could play tomorrow against the Devils.

Henrik Lundqvist met with the media on Saturday for the first time in training camp and said (NYR):

• On the first practice, "It felt great, I'm excited to be back here, back in New York. Had a great summer in Sweden, enjoyed the weather, friends and family but it's the time of the year where you focus on what is ahead and the new season and new challenge and it's great to see everyone. Some new faces with the coaching staff and players but camp is always fun. It's always the same feeling, you are anxious to get going, nervous, excited. It feels really good to be here."
• On his meeting with Quinn over the summer, "I got a really great impression of how he likes to discuss things, he is very open, seems like a great guy. Now it's the other part of him, to see him as a coach. Moving forward it will be under different circumstances, it's one thing to sit in July and discuss and another to discuss under pressure. Curious to see how things will feel in here. Each time there is a new coach there is a new feel, the way they coach, how they speak and you always learn something."

Larry Brooks writes in the NY Post that for the first time since 2005-06, the Rangers may enter and play a season without a captain.

The Rangers have been without a captain since Ryan McDonagh was traded last year at the deadline.

Brooks notes that players like Mats Zuccarello, Chris Kreider, Kevin Shattenkirk, Marc Staal and Jesper Fast could be options but he notes that none may be with the Rangers past their current contracts. (NY Post)

David Quinn said that when he gathers the team together at the start of training camp that the message for the season will be built around "we." (MSG)

Quinn said that the coaches and players need to "be on the same page" and the players need to buy in and believe that the coaches "care" about them and want to do everything possible to "help them succeed." (MSG)

Jimmy Vesey said that when he spoke with Quinn they discussed that "that the answers for us are in our own locker room."

The Rangers are wearing shirts at training camp this year that say "fast" and "physical" on the front and "relentless" on the back.

Rangers coach David Quinn met with the media on Thursday as training camp for the 2018-19 season gets underway (MSG):

• On being prepared for training camp, "I've been very fortunate in my career and I feel that every stop along the way has prepared me for this. I felt like summer ended a month ago so I've bee looking forward to getting going and getting training camp started."
• On knowing the players, "I've been fortunate to be around the last few months so I've been able to get together with a bunch of the guys so there is a familiarity with a bunch of them. It will take some time once we get on the ice and I get a clearer picture of what everyone is capable of doing, strengths and weaknesses, guys are always getting better and every year brings on a new challenge."
• "We are certainly excited about the veterans coming back, got a bunch of guys that will help lead us in the right direction and we are excited about the young core."

The Ottawa Senators have traded pending UFA Erik Karlsson tot he San Jose Sharks.

San Jose gets Karlsson and Francis Perron with Ottawa getting a first round pick in 2020, 2nd round pick in 2019, forwards Chris Tierny, Rudolfs Balcers, defenseman Dylan Demelo, prospect Josh Norris and a 2021 second round pick if Karlsson re-signs with the Sharks.

The Rangers had long been mentioned as a potential match for Karlsson and then as a third team that could help facilitate a trade between Ottawa and a team that needed cap space.

San Jose is projected to have $25.7 million in cap space after this season.

Brad Marchand said that it was "tough" to see Adam McQuaid get traded and that "when you look around the room, you want guys like him." (NBC Sports Boston)

Joe Haggerty described McQuaid as a "great teammate" and someone who stands up "without hesitation for his teammates against the biggest, toughest NHL foes." (NBC Sports Boston)

Haggerty notes that while McQuaid had fallen down the Bruins depth chart, they are going to miss his "toughness" and "selflessness."

Adam McQuaid was on NHL Tonight earlier to discuss his move to the Rangers and said:

• Were you surprised with the trade, "you should never be surprised but I showed up at the rink prepared to go to China. It caught me off guard a little bit but things can change quickly and I headed home, packed up and drove down to NY. Was able to get in last night and meet all the guys and staff and management today. I've heard nothing but great things about the organization and everyone was kind and welcoming and excited about the new opportunity for sure."
• On his fit with the Rangers, "I hope to be able to come in and help out on and off the ice and there are some young guys and a lot of promise. Boston has so much depth and a real bright future as well but being in Boston as long as I was and the friendships that you create with being with guys for 10+ years, not only that but the people you meet outside of hockey, it's tough to leave a place you are so entrenched in. A place you have given so much to and has given so much to you over the years. Getting here and the New York Rangers, it's pretty exciting and I'm taking it one day at a time but excited to see what is in store for our team."

David Quinn says that the Rangers are going to be a team that pressures the puck, possess the puck and combine all of that with "good, structural defense." (NHL.com)

Quinn said that the Rangers want to have "five-man gaps" all over the ice, want to be on top of people and make it "uncomfortable" for the other team. (NHL.com)

He added that in order to play the way that the Rangers want to play they will need to be in "world-class shape."(NHL.com)

The Rangers begin training camp on Thursday, with physicals, and the first on-ice session will be on Friday morning.

The Rangers have invited 52 players to training camp:

With their trade for Adam McQuaid, the Rangers will enter training camp with 47 of their 50 reserve list slots filled and between $2.6 million and $3.5 million in cap space.

The Rangers top-six heading into camp is likely to be Kevin Shattenkirk, McQuaid and Neal Pionk on the right side and Brady Skjei, Marc Staal and Fredrik Claesson/Brendan Smith on the left side.

Larry Brooks noted that Smith will be in competition on the left side with Claesson, John Gilmour, Rob O'Gara and possibly Libor Hajek.

The Rangers dropped their final game of the Traverse City tournament to St. Louis, 8-4.

He has a cap hit of $2.75 million this season but an actual salary of $2 million.

Jeff Gorton said recently that the Rangers plan to start Filip Chytil, Lias Andersson and Brett Howden at their natural position of center. (NY Post)

Gorton said that the trio will be evaluated as they go but there are no plans to move any of them to the wing, adding "we think of them as centers." (NY Post)

Gorton added that neither Mika Zibanejad or Kevin Hayes are likely to move to the wing, adding that there is mutual interest in Hayes staying with the Rangers long-term. (NY Post)

9/6/18 | Jeff Gorton told Larry Brooks that if a young player proves that he is ready to play in the NHL than the team will make "whatever roster moves are necessary" to make that happen. (NY Post)

He said that the Rangers won't hold anyone back because of veterans under contract but that the Rangers are operating on a "merit system" and that if someone is going to play in the NHL they have to earn it. (NY Post)

8/5/18 | Jeff Gorton said recently that while the Rangers want their "young kids" to make the team and "do well" they aren't going to be putting any of them in a "tough spot."

The Rangers defeated Minnesota 4-2 in their second game of the Traverse City tournament.

The goals the Rangers scored were from:

Ville Meskanen from Brett Howden.

9/7/18 | While describing his skill level, Gordie Clark said that while Buchnevich will score on a slap shot once in a while, "his passing ability is on another planet." (SI)

Buchnevich's agent said that when Buchnevich feels he has been "slighted" it puts him in a bad mood and that "when he's pissed off, he can produce." (SI)

Alain Vigneault said of Buchnevich in March, "there is some learning, there is some adjustments, Buchie is going through that like any young player like I've had in my career. There is a learning curve, peaks and valleys and Buchie is a lot like younger players. There is a tremendous amount of upside with that young man, we just have to work with him to get it more consistent."

Vigneault said that when Buchnevich struggles it is usually because of his decisions with the puck and that "you get to making the right plays by working on your game, improving your knowledge and understanding and there are less of those when you become a better and more experienced player."

9/6/18 | Jeff Gorton said that people should not assume that the Rangers will be "one and done" with Hayes and that both sides are interested in staying together. (NY Post)

Gorton said that Hayes should come to camp in "great shape, be a leader, have a big season" and then things can go from there. (NY Post)

8/25/18 | Kevin Hayes said that a one-year contract was the best situation for both himself and the Rangers this summer but that he still hopes to stay with the organization past this season. (NHL.com)

Larry Brooks writes that Brodeur is with the team as a replacement for Brandon Halverson who is out for six-weeks with a knee injury. (NY Post)

Brodeur was 15-13-4 in the ECHL with a 3.15 GAA and .917 save percentage.

The Sports Forecaster Magazine projects that the Rangers lines and defense combinations, for most of the season, will be:

Their power play projections included:

• Chytil, Buchnevich, Shattenkirk, Namestnikov, Kreider
• Vesey, Skjei, Spooner, Zibanejad, Zuccarello

Variations on the above line combinations were mentioned earlier in the summer.

The Rangers have announced that Vic Hadfield's #11 will be retired on December 2nd against Winnipeg.

Rangers President Glen Sather said in a release, "As a player, Vic Hadfield embodied the heart, soul, and determination of a New York Ranger," Sather said. "His willingness to contribute in any way necessary to help the Rangers win earned the respect and admiration of his teammates and fans alike. It is only fitting that Vic takes his rightful place alongside the Rangers legends in the rafters of Madison Square Garden."

The Rangers have announced that they have hired Steve Konowalchuk as an Amateur Scout.

Konowalchuk will primarily be responsible for scouting in the WHL.

He spent last season as an assistant coach with Anaheim after spending the previous six seasons as head coach of the Seattle Thunderbirds.

Lindgren is considered to be more of a "throwback" type of shutdown defenseman and Chris Drury said that he was someone the Rangers wanted from Boston because of his character, leadership and compete levels. (The Athletic)

David Quinn described his coaching style as "fair and demanding, adding that "there is no gray area with me with players.

He said that players "want to get better and held accountable but the message has to be that this is in your best interest, it's not about me being the big-tough coach, it's about letting them know that everything we we are doing is to make them better players."

Quinn added, "when a player realizes that and how much you care about them, there is a trust factor that creeps in and that is where success happens."

He said that it's "all bout relationships, people skills" and "what motivates somebody."

Henrik Lundqvist was on TSN 1050 radio earlier today and said the following about the Rangers:

• Would you consider going back to Sweden to play with Joel, "it's hard to say. I have at least another three-years in New York. I love being a Ranger and playing there but at the same time I got the opportunity to go home last year and play for team Sweden with my brother. It was a surreal moment to stand there and see the Swedish flag go up and stand there with my brother. Growing up we played on the same team and went to school together and the first time I really spent more than two days away from Joel was when I moved to New York as a 23-year old. It was a big change in my life, will I get another opportunity to play with him, I don't know. The thought is kind of cool but at the same time I really enjoy where I am at and being a big part of the Rangers. I take it year by year and try to make the most of it."

Jimmy Vesey said recently that he is looking forward to "somewhat of a fresh start" this season under David Quinn.

Vesey said that consistency has been "big" for him and that he has had both good and quieter stretches.

He said, "I've gone from a younger guy on the team to pretty much one of the older guys. I want to step up my game and be more consistent and develop into a leader for this team."

Henrik Lundqvist is back in New York and posted a video of himself on the ice today at the Rangers practice facility.

The Rangers have announced their roster for the 2018 Traverse City Tournament beginning in September.

• Forwards: Lias Andersson, Filip Chytil, Gabriel Fontaine, Brett Howden, Kyle Potts, Tim Gettinger, Dawson Leedahl, Michael Lindqvist, Drew Melanson, Jason Salvaggio, Jakob Stukel, Reese Johnson, Ville Meskanen, Ty Ronning

Ryan Spooner was on NHL Network earlier this week and said:

• On his play after joining the Rangers, "I was just trying to have fun. When I heard the news that I would be traded I was a little bit upset, I was with the same team for five years and a lot of guys on the the team I got closer with, that was tough to hear but it was a fresh start for me and I went to the Rangers and the guys were great, the coaching staff too and I just wanted to help out, went out, tried to play my game and have fun and that is what I did."
• On his versatility, "I played center since I was like two and played wing for maybe 60 games since I've been pro. There are pros and cons to both, I struggled with my faceoffs but last year I was better and tried to work on them but it's always been something I have lacked on. For me to go over to wing took the burden off of that. I can play center and with the Rangers I would like to play center but if they want me to play wing that is fine by me and if they need me to play center then that is fine with me as well."
• On David Quinn, "he gave me a call about a month ago and we just chatted and basically what he said was that we have a young team this year and he expects that we work hard and are in great shape and I think that as a young team, if we are in really good shape and skate, that is a recipe for us to be a successful team. He knows what he is doing and I am excited to play for him."
• On how he fits with a young team, "I'm definitely not young anymore but not old. The fact that I cam from the Bruins, the leadership group they had, the things that I have learned throughout my time can help me out. We are not going to be really young but we are not going to be old and I think I can help out and try to lead by example and go out there and have some fun." 

Following the interview, Mike Johnson said on the NHL Network that if Spooner is in a position where he can get the puck, play with good players and see time on the PP "he will produce."

He noted though that while the best use of Spooner would be in the Rangers top-six, he will struggle to find a spot there with the players the Rangers already have.

The NHL Network projection had Spooner as the RW on a third line that had Jimmy Vesey on the left side and Filip Chytil in the middle.
