Greetings and salutations everyone and welcome to another blog here on BlueCollarBlueShirts.com. At least they finally won a game.
Throw a parade!
I gotta admit, then there were three things that I was thinking about prior to Tuesday night’s tilt in Vancouver:
— One, I was expecting some sort of interaction/controversy created because of the rivalry/feud between Rangers’ captain J.T. Miller and his former-teammate-turned-foe, Elias Pettersson.
While I didn’t necessarily believe that something would happen between these two men specifically; what I mean here is that I thought that one of their teammates would go after one, if not both, of these big name stars in this money on the board affair.
We had none of that.
Not one iota whatsoever.
— Two, I was expecting Jonathan Quick to start – and once in net – then play out of his mind.
We did have that tonight – and where I was only feeling this way because no one else on this Rangers’ roster could relate to what Miller was going to go through in his return to the city where he first-and-truly became a league superstar.
While DUH, Quick meant more, and will always mean more, to the Los Angeles Kings than Miller will ever mean to the Canucks; but the situations that these two have endured in recent years are similar – a franchise name booted out of town and now returned to the city where he had his peak years.
— Three, I was expecting another Rangers’ loss. After all, what have we seen during this past week that would make me, or anyone else for that matter, feel otherwise?
And again – then if it weren’t for Quick, who absolutely carried the Blueshirts during this 2-0 empty-net abetted victory – then it’s my belief that the Rangers’ losing streak would’ve hit four-straight games.
But that’s from the realm of “coulda, woulda, shoulda” – and in turn – now back to Rangers’ reality – a much-needed victory in Vancouver.

During tonight’s M$GN pregame show, both Dave Maloney and Kenny Albert mentioned that Rangers’ head coach Mike Sullivan made his charges watch their three losses to the Washington Capitals, Toronto Maple Leafs and Edmonton Oilers.
While yes, the Rangers did lose all three of these one-goal games; but Sullivan’s lone intention was to get his team to realize that they can play defensively-sound hockey.
After the dreadful back-to-back losses to the two worst teams in the league, the San Jose Sharks (6-5 OT) and Calgary Flames (5-1), Sully wanted his Rangers to revert back to their strong structured defense that they exhibited earlier this season – while also still hoping that the goals will eventually come.
With a 2-0 win against the Canucks – then Sullivan’s message was successful – or at least on the scoreboard – which of course – is the only thing that matters.
(Holy dashes and Morse Code Batman!)
After all, of Quick’s 23 stops, then I’d reckon that one-third of them were of the robbery variety – and where no one was “GOALIE’D” more than the recently imported from Chicago Lukas Reichel – as Quick not only robbed him once – but the future Hall of Famer also robbed Reichel of scoring a hat trick too.
And I’m not exaggerating at all.
It should also be mentioned (and not forgotten either) that the Canucks were also without their best player tonight – as Quinn Hughes remains unavailable.
With the non-Devil Hughes’ brother not out there – and his absence was woefully glaring for the home team – as the Canucks had issues with creating offense all-game.
Also missing from the Canucks’ line-up tonight were a pair of ex-Rangers hoping to show up their former team, Filip Chytil (currently recovering from his 5667856785856565th concussion – what a shock) and Victor Mancini.
And while fans in Vancouver can make excuses about this loss due to Hughes’ injury – but at the same time – and the Rangers were missing their best player too – Matt Rempe!
(I kid, I kid – or am I?)

Obviously, then going into this game and all that anyone could talk about was Miller v. Pettersson.
While I didn’t rule out the idea of their teammates trying to start something/defend their good honors; I also didn’t see these two intentionally trying to start something between each other.
Ever since Miller was returned to New York – and all these two have done was to skirt away all questions about their past.
Even today, and with large media circuses from both sides of the border peppering each of them with questions – and neither one of the former teammate tandem would take the bait.
In a way, and I think that both Miller and Pettersson intentionally tried to avoid each other whenever possible – and with both stars treating this game and alleged rivalry in a “walking-on-eggshells” manner.
You could tell that while these two won’t be sending Christmas cards to each other any time soon – but at the same time – they also want to move past all of this – and where really – it is all in the past now.
By the time that the game ended late Tuesday night? (12:45AM in NYC)
Then neither one of them were really a factor (especially on the power-play, as both sides finished 0-3) and where only Miller’s 11-4 (73.3%) showing at the dots was noticeable.

I had mixed feelings following the win.
Yeah, the Rangers won and finally ended their losing streak – but did they really look good against a bad team that was also missing their best player?
I don’t think so – and once more – then without Quick – and I think that this game goes differently – and not in favor of the visitors.
For all of the talk that’s now out there about how the Rangers got back to playing defense and all of that other rah-rah jazz – and that’s not necessarily true.
Again, Quick was lights-out in net – and where just like any other game this season – and the Canucks almost had a goal within the first opening two-minutes.
And just like most games this season too?
Then it was the other team that spent the first half of the first period just attacking and racking up zone time against the Rangers.
It wasn’t until the first frame got under ten-minutes (9:36 remaining to be specific) for the tide to turn, as Arshdeep Bains had tripped Sam Carrick.
While the Rangers still have issues with their god-awful power-play; they were able to ride this momentum for the rest of the period.
For a player like Hughes, a defenseman, and who means so much for his team in both ends of the ice – and the Blueshirts didn’t burn the makeshift Canucks’ defense either – and as their 0-3 power-play showing would also strongly suggest.
During a rare Vancouver attack where they didn’t immediately turn over the puck (from the second period on – and it felt like the Canucks committed 76567555676785 o-zone turnovers), and Adam Fox was able to break-up another elongated o-zone possession that the Canucks were enjoying.
Fox soon found Will Cuylle by the boards, which then allowed the dehydrated dry-haired/cried-out-eyes hippie, Mika Zibanejad, to join his flank on a mini 2 x 1 odd-man rush – which was also the end result of some smart and quick neutral zone transition play.
The man who has the worst contract in the NHL today proved that a broken clock is correct sometimes too – as Stinka Zibanedud was actually able to beat Nucks’ goalie Thatcher Demko, top-shelf, for a 1-0 GOOD GUYS goal – and with just 2:33 remaining in the first frame.
Quick would allow this goal to also hold-up as the game-winner.
Outside of a late first period scrap between Carrick and Marcus Pettersson (NO RELATIONS TO ELIAS JOE), then there wasn’t much fireworks or pop to speak of for the next forty-minutes.
While both teams had chances – they could also never bury them either – which DUH – has been the biggest Blueshirts’ problem this season.
Again – the Canucks are bad and were without their best player.
Even so, and the home team held in there with their desperate visitors.
In what essentially was a one-goal/one-shot game, then it wasn’t until Demko was pulled with nearly 3:00 remaining for us to see our second – and final – goal of the game.
After Quick survived a ton of pressure – and BOOM – there was SAM I DAM AM CARRICK putting the Nucks away with his 2-0 empty-netter – or two-thirds of a Gordie Howe hat trick!
Yeah, I guess be happy that the Blueshirts finally won a game – and even if this victory has a ton of asterisks and dubious circumstances surrounding it.
To my eyes, perhaps the peepers of a Doubting Thomas?
Then where was your $11.6M forward, the highest-paid player on the team, Artemi Panarin?
Where was your first-overall draft pick from five years ago, Alexis Lafreniere?
And while Miller may be injured (and perhaps fighting nerves too) – but when is he going to go off in a game this season?
But hey – it only took eleven games for Zibanejad to score his first even-strength goal of the season!
PRINT THE PLAYOFF TICKETS!
WE WANT THE CUP!
In case you missed it, then here’s where I last left off – my potty-mouthed review of the loss in Calgary:

For whatever reason, and perhaps because the Rangers/M$GN social media team aren’t allowed to be with the team on road-trips anymore (that Panarin can bite!) – and none of Sully’s pregame interviews have been uploaded to the team’s official YouTube channel.
In turn, then the following information comes from a gaggle of birdbrain Blueshirt beat reporters/transcribers – and what was told to us on the M$GN too.
After an off-day on Monday (which just boggled me – as this team needs practice more than any other of the league’s 32) and the Blueshirts had a Tuesday morning pregame skate.
Following the A.M. activities, then Sullivan told the media that Matt Rempe, still out after his fight with Ryan Reaves from last Thursday, isn’t expected to return anytime soon.
As of this writing – and Rempe hasn’t been designated with an IR or LTIR label.
While Rempe doesn’t make much, but even so, then you’d think that the Rangers would call up somebody.
Then again, cap space accrues when players aren’t on IR/LTIR, so that’s probably why #73 is still being carried right now.
While Sullivan didn’t specify how long Rempe will be out for; but according to what’s out there, then the best case scenario is only for a few weeks.
Worst-case scenario, and as others are thinking will be the case, is a few months – and where Rempe might not return until after the Olympic break (February).
But since the NHL allows their injury information to be vague and unspecific – then we won’t know about Rempe’s return until it happens.
As far as what Rempe’s injury is, then apparently his sister has gone on social media and said it’s a broken thumb.
I can not confirm anything about this report, outside of that it was really Rempe’s sister who said this.
Personally, then I’m hoping that’s what it is – as it beats the alternative – a concussion.
In other injury news, then Sullivan said that Vincent Trocheck, who has only played all of five periods with the team this season, is finally skating by himself (in New York – he’s not on the trip).
As noted a week back on this site, then Trocheck, and because of his LTIR distinction, can first return on 11/1 – when the Rangers are in Seattle.
Most likely, and should all things go according to plans, then we’ll probably see Trocheck back once the Rangers return home – which is when they will host K’Andre Miller’s Carolina Hurricanes (11/4).

There were three line-up changes tonight:
One, and as already noted, Quick was in for CZAR IGOR.
Again, I thought that this had to happen.
Sullivan has been burning out CZAR IGOR (8/10 starts) and Quick was due to get a game – and especially with a strong opponent, the Edmonton Oilers, next up on the docket – which is when CZAR IGOR should go next.
And as noted above – Quick knew exactly what Miller was going to go through tonight – so there was no one better to have in the Blueshirts’ barrel than the future HOFer himself.
Two, and Matthew Robertson (-3 last game) was replaced by Urho V.
To me, this didn’t matter – as outside of Adam Fox and Vladislav Gavrikov, and to a lesser extent, Braden Schneider and Will Borgen too – then all of the routine third-pair rear-guards are pretty much interchangeable.
In other words, then the likes of Robertson, U.V. and Soucy can all take breaks on a rotation-basis for all that I care.
Three, the Brennan Othmann experiment is already one-and-done.
Replacing Othmann, who was just pathetic and horrid in the loss to Calgary (but to be fair – what has Lafreniere and Panarin done this season?), was Jonny Brodzinski.
I had no issues with that – as JONNY BROADWAY always gives the Blueshirts some pop.
Plus, consider all of the factors going into this game.
Yes, the Miller/Pettersson stuff is part of this – but more importantly than that – so was the team’s three-game losing streak.
The Rangers, who entered this game as the worst team in the Eastern Conference (and fifth-worst overall), need wins.
They aren’t a juggernaut, which is to say that for this team that are presently pretending to be contenders – then they don’t have the luxury of experimenting around with any unproven prospects – and especially not when this prospect had looked like dog shit against the worst team in the NHL just some 48-hours prior.
On Othmann’s healthy scratch (and an Othmann that wouldn’t even be here had Rempe not been injured), Sullivan said:
“I think the most important element of it is just attention to detail, reliability, knowing your job, doing your job and your play away from the puck. That was where his focus, I think, needed to be.
“We’re looking for that element as an important aspect of him earning a roster spot. I thought in the game the other night [Calgary], there were some good things that he did. There were also some moments where attention to detail could have helped us keep the puck out of the net.
“We’ll continue to work with Otter with respect to those details and what those mean.”
Here’s what it means:
Once the Rangers get back to New York – then Othmann will be returned to Hartford.
We all know that the Blueshirts’ biggest weakness this season is scoring goals.
At this rate – then just give Gabe Perreault a shot – how can it hurt?
What, he won’t score like Panarin and Lafreniere?
Oooooh, I’m so freaking scared!
Here was Sully’s line-up for the eleventh game of this 2025-26 season:
FIRST LINE: Panarin/Zibanejad/Cuylle
SECOND LINE: Sheary/Miller/Lafreniere
THIRD LINE: Parssinen/Laba/Raddysh
FOURTH LINE: Edstrom/Carrick/Brodzinski
FIRST PAIR: Gavrikov/Fox
SECOND PAIR: Soucy/Borgen
THIRD PAIR: Vaakanainen/Schneider
STARTING GOALIE: Quick
BACK UP GOALIE: CZAR IGOR
HEALTHY SCRATCHES: Brennan Othmann and Matthew Robertson
UNHEALTHY SCRATCH: Rempe
LTIR: Vincent Trocheck

As far as tonight’s M$GN pregame show went – then it was another 10/10 star performance – and maybe 11/10 since Sieve Vagistat wasn’t around!
Once again, and John Giannone and Dave Maloney handled all duties, aside from a returning Kenny Albert doing in-between the benches work. (And as was the case on Sunday with Alex Faust and Giannone – and Albert/Giannone switched places once the game commenced.)
We were immediately told that Miller’s family was in-attendance.
In my eyes, then this told me that this was a big game for Miller – and that maybe he was expecting a positive reaction following his sour and self-forced exit.
As far as the crowd reaction to Miller tonight, then he was booed whenever he touched the puck in the first period. However, there was also positive fan signage in favor of him too.
And once Vancouver ran a “Thank You Miller” spot during the first TV timeout – and the crowd cheered – and where all of the previous boos that we heard for him stopped too.
I cackled a bit when Maloney referred to Elias Pettersson as “a responsible Swede.” As opposed to what, the “irresponsible half-Swede, Mika Zibanejad?”
Albert, and as he continued to do all-broadcast, brought up a lot of Canuck history.
While this is well-known (it’s even in the first pages of his own autobiography) – and not once did he ever mention that the Canucks were his favorite team in sports when growing up.
I thought that Maloney would rib him about that – but with this game basically a one-shot affair for the majority of the duration – then I guess that the time for jokes would have been inappropriate!
GAME REVIEW time – and where I gotta be quick due to the time too.
Plus, I have to be up in four-hours for work.
In other words, just the bullet-points – but if you do want a complete running play-by-play commentary, then check out my Tweeter feed here: https://x.com/NYCTheMiC

FIRST PERIOD
— Adam Fox was stopped ten-seconds into the match – so this was a rare game where not only the Rangers got the first SOG – but within seconds too.
— Thirty-seconds later (and this will be forgotten about because the Rangers won/Quick had a shutout) – and Zibanejad was just puck-watching as Quick committed his first robbery of the night – on a wide-open Reichel.
— As noted above – and Quick had Reichel’s number tonight. I’m not joking – the former Hawk-turned-Nuck should’ve had a hat trick.
— After the Canucks almost scored again (100-second mark) and Maloney listed all of Vancouvers’ walking wounded, including when he remarked, “the concussion issue haunts Chytil.”
— As noted before in this space – then I no longer have any sympathy for Chytil. He’s doing it to himself now. I know that it sucks for him, but it’s time to retire – that is – unless he doesn’t want to know his own name by the time that he turns 30-years-old.
— I don’t know where to add this, so I’ll say it here: I found it comical that Vancouver, entering this “revenge game” with Miller’s Rangers, wore their 1994 jerseys. As you may have heard – and that year’s Stanley Cup Final didn’t exactly go the Canucks’ way!
— At the 7:00 mark, Zibanedud found a wide-open NDArtemi in front of Demko’s net. Despite being at point-blank range – and Panarin couldn’t score. Perhaps if Demko was a young female M$GN intern, then #10 in white could’ve (ALLEGEDLY) assaulted this net.
— Two minutes later, and Noah Laba, who was otherwise EXCELLENT again (and one of the few Rangers that were actually noticeable in a positive manner too), turned over the puck in his own zone – but the Blueshirts had Quick locked-in on this night.
— As Nuck fans were chanting “LET’S GO PETEY” – then there was Quick with another robbery, this time with 9:40 remaining.
— Four-seconds later? The first Rangers’ power-play of the game – and where from this point on – and the Blueshirts flipped the tables and then became the primary aggressor (like Panarin in a hotel room with an unarmed female – ALLEGEDLY may I add).
— Miller, who the bi-polar crowd didn’t know whether to boo or cheer him at points, missed a wide-open net during this first of three goose egg power-plays.
— No joke? And the PP2 unit, which featured Taylor Raddysh, Conor Sheary and Jonny Brodzinski, were the best offensive trio whenever the Rangers were man-up.
— But similar to Quick – and Demko was also in the zone.
— During a 50-second attack, Panarin went wide, Laba went wide and Gavrikov had a shot deflected wide. The Canucks iced the puck in a response – and later got out of this best offensive 5 x 5 threat yet.
— But two-minutes later – and with just 2:33 remaining – and the Rangers finally got Demko to crack:
Mika Zibanejad gets the Rangers in the board first with his fourth goal!#NYR pic.twitter.com/jDb2w21p5t
— Everything Team USA/NY (@EverythingUSANY) October 29, 2025
— 1-0, GOOD GUYS.
— Just read the past three-years’ worth of blogs on this site – as once again – I was the first to be all over this topic – and just like shit on a monkey! (But I’m glad to see that everyone is finally catching up too!)
— Mika has lost me forever – and where he’ll never get me back following his ballerina bullshit against New Jersey last season (when he sat and watched his four teammates fight five Devils).
— In a game where you thought that you might see a Miller and/or Pettersson inspired brawl – instead, and a huge Carrick hit on Conor Garland led to this bout:
Sam Carrick delivers a big open-ice hit and drops the gloves with Marcus Pattersson. #NYR pic.twitter.com/K6DpntGYkM
— Everything Team USA/NY (@EverythingUSANY) October 29, 2025
— This was win-win-win all-around.
— For starters, Carrick gave Garland a legal and thunderous hit. While Garland would later return to play – he was done after the second period – as the effects of this clash knocked him out of the game.
— Carrick, after delivering this major blow, then beat-up Pettersson too, as this was another “W” in #39’s fight card – and who once again – remains the most consistent Ranger – while also possessing the most team-friendly contract too.
— Not only did Carrick do all of the above – but since Pettersson, and valiantly at that, decided to defend his teammate’s honor – and the best center on the team today had drawn the Blueshirts a power-play.
— I can’t say enough good things about Sam Carrick. Similar to Quick and this veteran rarely has off-nights.
We remained at 1-0 through 20-minutes.
Here’s what I said at the time:
1-0, #NYR after 20. 1P Thoughts:
— Wow, Mika scored – the delusional will now defiantly proclaim “MIKA’S BACK!”
— SOG 7-4, visitors.
— VAN is missing their best player (Quinn Hughes), but I guess NYR is missing theirs too (Rempe)!
— Little deja vu – other team controls the…— BlueCollarBlueShirts (@NYCTheMiC) October 29, 2025

SECOND PERIOD
— The Rangers opened up this middle period by going 0-2 on their power-play.
— I have nothing against David Quinn (blogs don’t lie – and where my previous writings about him led to others calling me “A QUINN TRUTHER”) – but wasn’t he, the origin story of this once successful power-play, supposed to turn things around during his now second coming?
— That said – and I blame the FAT CAT players. They just don’t score – and no matter what the situation.
— At the 1:53 mark and Edstrom was boxed for interference. The Vancouver power-play was equally as bad as the Rangers’, as they too also finished as 0-3.
— That said – and Quick did rob Reichel once more during this first Rangers’ PK.
— Once returned to 5×5 and Evander Kane was next off to the sin bin for hooking B-Schneids.
— Quick made two saves during this particular Rangers’ power-play.
— As we approached the half-way mark of the game/period and Demko survived a Laba/Raddysh 2 x 1 try. Again – Laba continues to impress – and say what you want about Raddysh, most likely a one-and-done Ranger – but he’s been good too – or at least much better than THE FAT CATS!
— After Hronek, as a trailer, went wide on an open blast, then Quick stopped Reichel again, and this time with 7:28 to go.
— It was also at this point where this game started to feel like slog – or like an AHL game full of inexperienced guys.
— There’s not much else to note from this point on.
1-0, good guys, through two-periods.
Here’s what I said at the time:
1-0, #NYR, after 40. 2P Thoughts:
— If you’re reading this after sleeping, then you haven’t really missed much.
— Nucks have been turnover machines – and I think Mika has forced 60% of them.
— Quick has no rust at all after the long layoff.
— SOG 18-11, visitors.
— 3P’s…— BlueCollarBlueShirts (@NYCTheMiC) October 29, 2025

THIRD PERIOD
— Just 1:06 in and Soucy, again, in a one-goal/one-shot game, blatantly interfered with EP40.
— Cuylle broke up a sure-fire back-door try, while Quick made another short-handed save to keep the Rangers’ PK as flawless.
— Five-minutes in and Quick had recorded his 13th of an eventual 23-saves. This tells you that the Canucks came out firing in crunch time, while the Rangers had the word “CHOKE” written all over them.
— Again, and in the Jan Brady voice: “QUICK, QUICK, QUICK” – as he continued to rack up the saves and frustrate every citizen that calls Vancouver home.
— After Gavrikov got away with a blatant interference penalty with 8:03 remaining, then there was Panarin and Lafreniere, and once again, being unable to convert on a 2 x 1.
— This then led to a long attack in the Rangers’ zone – and one that Quick got out of with 6:16 remaining – and yep – you know it – by saying NO to Reichel.
— Seriously, Lukas Reichel? Ironically, and he had no real skin in this alleged “rivalry game” – as he was just dealt to Vancouver a week ago. Yet, and with Hughes out – and he was the most impressive Mother Canucker on the ice.
— As we hit 3:00 remaining – and Vancouver bench boss, Adam Foote, pulled Demko.
— I thought that this was an extremely early goalie pull.
— Granted, this pull didn’t hurt the Canucks – and where Quick made two more saves once the home team employed their 6 x 5 empty net attack.
— After another Quick freeze, then Foote used his timeout with 1:55 remaining.
— And with 93-seconds remaining – and this is when Carrick somehow got a puck past two Canuck defenders – and then into their empty net too.
— The Rangers, following an ill-advised late Cuylle slashing penalty, were able to rely on Quick in order to preserve the shutout win.
2-0, good guys, 2-0 good guys, your final from Vancouver.

You can check the standings for yourself, but this win pretty much allowed the Rangers to keep pace.
As a result of all games played on 10/28, and the Rangers moved up from worst to third-worst in the Eastern Conference – but where the new cellar-dweller, the Islanders, have played in two less games than big brother.
But yeah – it’s still early – but with that said – and Thanksgiving, the first time where you really start to pay attention to the standings, is only a month out.
I gotta get this off of my chest too:
The NHL promoted this random Tuesday Night in October as a “FROZEN FRENZY” – as all 32-teams were in action.
I didn’t even know about this promotion until around 7PM.
Not only is the NHL terrible at promoting themselves – but why would they do this on a random weekday/work-night?
Do it on a Saturday – and even if it’s against college football.
Better than that?
Do it on a Sunday when the NFL season is over.
Not only was the timing of this promotion all-wrong – but this gimmick also went against Game 4 of the World Series.
While the NHL couldn’t predict what the MLB schedule would be, nor the fact that the only Canadian baseball team in the league would be contending for baseball’s supreme championship – but really – what do you think was bigger in the league’s biggest market – 32-teams who have yet to sniff a dozen games – or the Toronto Blue Jays?
Best sport on earth – but the worst promoters of it too!
Up Next For the Rangers:
The Blueshirts will wrap up their two-game season-series with the Oilers on Thursday night.
Edmonton has been struggling lately (mainly due to a long road-trip), but they just knocked-off the red-hot Utah Mammoth (I never thought I’d type that sentence in my life either), 6-3 on Tuesday.
And that Connor McDavid guy always gives the Rangers headaches.
This is my way of telling you that for as good as you may feel right now after a Blueshirts’ win – then I also see a new losing streak starting on Thursday.
Sorry, but I just got no faith in these guys.
Prove me wrong – and they’ll get that chance some 48-hours from now.

We already had a frozen frenzy night this season on a Saturday night (Oct 11) when we were at the LSU game. Really sucks for fantasy hockey
Why does it suck for fantasy hockey? Because you have to bench players?
