NY Rangers (1-1-1) vs NY Islanders (1-1-1)
• 29 Sep 2025 19:00 EDT
• The Horse Track, Long Island
• TV: MSG, NHLN •
Fourth preseason game tonight against the pretenders from the Island. The lineup has not yet been released as of mid-afternoon. Will update if/when something is official.
Other news today: Roster has been cut to 41, no surprises. JT Miller suffered some type of LBI during praccy. Video appears to indicate it happened while lunging for a puck and that he grabbed the back of his leg. People like to jump to ACLs but it could be a hamstring muscle injury or one of the hamstring and associated tendons which also run down to the knee. From personal experience, they both feel bad!
Keys to a Ranger victory: Score more goals?
On this date in history: its preseason, come on!
Speculative NYR lineup: will return once the regular season starts

Woot!
Second First.
Carrick LBI day to day, not playing tonight as precaution
Uncle Larry says a bird whispered to him that JT’s injury is not serious and he might praccy tomorrow
LGR!
Pre season? So what. Just win.
They should have put the rink in the infield at Belmont. Could have added a few races with hockey players vs ponies on the inner turf
Fishsticks A team against Rangers B- team with Isledorks commentators…What’s can be better…
Not a good night for getting it out of our own end. Then again, that’s most nights in the regular season too.
From the practice video where he kinda grabbed near the outside of his knee and with the mechanism. My best guess is lateral meniscus.
Hopefully non surgical issue and rest/ice will allow any swelling to subside
May benefit from a brace when he comes back.
Mackey slow to cover?
Once Igor leaves Isles will start cashing in. This is a very thin Ranger squad.
Raddysh can’t throw that back into his own end. He is supposed to know better than that.
Coolio!
ORF throwing the Radish into the bin
Mackey didn’t help himself on The Duke’s goal either.
Ràddysh is a placeholder. If he is on the 3rd line it’s weak. There’s got to be a better option.
Rempe didn’t trip him. His stick wasn’t under his skate. He slipped when he turned.
Beezle- is it just you and on here?
Would think there will be a bit cut tomorrow. Two preseason games left, limited practices. Need to get under 30
Rempe trying to get his moneys worth there
Great defensive play to break up the Rempe breakaway
ORF Olga’s around, at least in spirit with some spirits lol
I drink, therfore I am.
Not much from the,young ones tonight …chasing …chasing
Here comes the collapse, pretty much right on time.
Could be worse, see Jets
You got to stop that shot, no?
It’s Former Rangers Field Days.
Labia!
He’s the real deal.
Laba daba doo!
Labia belongs in the Majora league, not the Minora!
Have to agree with BobbyO, not too much to distinguish anyone out there tonight but most of these guys will be somewhere else next week
Nice finish by the kid
Still think Laba is in the mix because this team is slow and Parsinnen is meh
Laba at least deserves a “Stick around, kid”.
Think they would rather get him big minutes in Hartford. Parssinen likely to get the spot and if he disappoints they’ll bring Laba back up.
Laba and parsinen should be on the team
Raddysh Sheary and brodude can go to Hartford
I’ve liked parsnips pre season very much.
Decent wheels. Smart plays. Takes the body. Good on the boards.
Has pedigree and scouts liked him for a while for a reason
Laffy Miller Mika
Panarin Trocheck Cuylle
Othman parsnip Laba
Edstrom Carrick Rempe
Perrault I believe will be better served developing in Hartford
Parsnip better suited at 3C whole Laba learns the NhL game from the more simple wing
When he gets rolling he can play center down the line.
Parsnip can be wing or center depending on what Laba is doing.
I would keep Laba around and let Miller and Carrick get to 100%. There is no reason to rush payers for opening night. It is going to be a long season.
Corporal Really like your line combinations, Great Line balance. Don’t believe that Perrault will stay in Hartford very long though. He pedigreed. That’s a great 3rd line.
dont think Sully would put 2 rookies on same line
There is a new post
