The contract talks, not surprisingly, have gone nowhere. Hence, Mats Zuccarello and Kevin Hayes will be going somewhere by Monday. Until they do, they have played their last games. Or at least, that’s the call management should make prior to Thursday’s match at the Garden against the free-falling Wild. It wasn’t necessarily the money, but […]

David Quinn may have, in fact, been “told differently.” A few hours after the coach said he planned to play trade chips Mats Zuccarello, Kevin Hayes and Adam McQuaid on Thursday night at the Garden “until I’m told differently,” the Rangers may have tipped their hand by calling up Lias Andersson from AHL Hartford.

The Rangers rolled the dice and put all of their trade chips on the ice Thursday night. Mats Zuccarello and Kevin Hayes may have gotten their Garden farewell, in a 4-1 loss to the Wild, but a third Ranger likely to be wearing a different sweater by Monday’s deadline didn’t make it through the game.

Cory Schneider made 30 saves in posting his first shutout since November 2017 and Devils beat the undermanned Senators 4-0 on Thursday night at Prudential Center in Newark in a game in which both teams gave indications they were getting ready to make trades before Monday’s deadline. “It’s never easy,” Schneider said of the trading […]
