The Islanders were determined to not let this be a back-to-back-breaker. They came out strong, kept up the attack for most of the game, and survived some dicey moments late in a 2-1 victory over the Wild on Sunday at Barclays Center. The result runs the Islanders’ record to 9-0-0 in the second half of […]

This is becoming a ritual for the Rangers. When Henrik Lundqvist turned 36 last March 2, the King faced 51 shots and stopped 50 of them in the Rangers’ 3-1 victory in Calgary. So naturally, when Alexandar Georgiev turned 23 on Sunday, the Bulgarian faced 56 shots and stopped 55 of them in the Blueshirts’ […]

You could excuse the Rangers if they had flashbacks to Hugh Jessiman, the 12th-overall selection of the 2003 entry draft who tore a left ankle ligament in his second game of his junior season at Dartmouth, never was the same following surgery and never played a game for the Blueshirts. For on Saturday night in […]

If the Islanders end up having to play postseason games at Barclays Center, this weekend’s victories over the Avalanche and Wild in front of spirited crowds offer some hope for success.

Now, with two weeks left until the NHL trade deadline, the question is whether the Rangers want to get value for […]

Maybe he thought he was playing baseball. Pittsburgh Penguins star Evgeni Malkin was ejected from his team’s game against the Flyers on Monday night after he took a full-on swing toward the back of Philadelphia forward Michael Raffl’s head, adding an ugly chapter to the teams’ cross-state rivalry. The veteran will had a hearing with […]

WINNIPEG — Mats Zuccarello told The Post he has “not heard any concrete news from my agent,” and his agent at Newport Sports told The Post the Norwegian’s situation is “status quo.” Translated, this means that, 13 days and eight games away from the Feb. 25 trade deadline, the Blueshirts have not engaged in contract […]

It was truly a “miracle on ice” when a North Carolina doctor saved a fellow hockey player’s life during a pickup game. Jib Street, a native of Canada who has been playing hockey his whole life, dropped in the Pineville rink in January after he went into cardiac arrest. But, as luck would have it, […]

When it comes to celebrating Lindsey Vonn’s accomplished career, P.K. Subban might just be the GOAT. Vonn, who won a bronze medal in the world championship downhill on Sunday, called it a career earlier than expected after persistent pain in both her surgically repaired knees. She came home to Subban, her boyfriend and the Predators […]
