Duclair is still suffering from PCS. The Rangers are sending Duclair to Dr. Kutcher next week for a couple days of testing. The symptoms return when he rides the bike.

Rangers prospects camp is the first week of July. He hopes to be ready for that camp.
Really wish they would change that rule. Someone like duclair, or more prominent example like drouin, are clearly ready for the AHL.
Frozen 4 final tonight. Go Gophers. Should be a close game. Toss up. Union coach Rick Bennett is a former Ranger. He was supposed to a big power forward but never made it. Bennett has done a great job with that program. I am surprised none of the bigger schools have not tried to hire him. If this was college basketball or football,Bennett would have left Union by now. Does he want to coach pro hockey? The Rangers should be in the market for an AHL coach. The only person with more job security than Sather is Gernander.

I still believe that Scott Stajcer could be a decent professional goalie if he could stay healthy for any extended period of time. He had the talent. The consistency, in theory, would come from experience. Unfortunately for him, goalies with chronic hip problems won't make it very far. Still, I wouldn't be terribly surprised to see him resurface with a few good AHL seasons down the line.
FWIW Bennett is from Springfield Mass. Providence College where he went to as a player and later as an assistant coach is not that far away and neither is Union College which is in Schenectady NY. Hartford Connecticut is pretty much in the same general area.
Personally I'm not a fan of Gernander's. I would have gotten rid of him at least two years ago. That being said--once this team got some decent goaltending by adding Grumet-Morris and Leveneu and added some vet scoring in Hensick their season turned around. The Wolfpack have been winning a lot lately. Why they took so long to address the goaltending issues I don't know. Any one of Sather, Gorton, Schoenfeld, Allaire and Gernander could have just opened up and said 'You know, this is just ****ed up'. They sat on that problem way too long for the team to have any chance to get back in the playoff race.
Just finished watching the Gophers fall to Union and Skjei should leave. Lucia is an idiot. Marshall and Reilly are brutal in their own zone and this dope kept throwing them out there while Brady sat and watched. I know they were down, but these guys are bad hockey players and if Brady can't get the respect after the year he had he needs to become a Ranger; Now. Not to mention that when he took the puck from behind his net and rushed up ice, Union couldn't stop him. There's some offense in there and Lucia is holding it back. Time to move on Brady.
Duclair's concussion doesn't seem that bad. He was at the Bell Center tonight for the game. Usually when you have big symptoms, you can't go to places that are loud.

Great night with my boys at the bell center for the Rangers-Habs game!

I heard that the wolf pack doesn't run the same system as the rangers. Any truth to that? If it is true that incredibly stupid.... We should make the transition as easy as possible
I know he's from Quebec but he better have been rooting for the Rangers!![]()
The interesting question is: Who the guy on his right is rooting for?![]()
Is that Malcolm Subban by any chance?
Has he been drafted yet?
Yes, by the Canucks in the 4th round last summer.
