Rangers Rap

New Third Jerseys coming

Red-based. Much like the Memorial Cup specials worn in 2008 with the soldier on front.

Rangers said at last night's AGM that a few players will wear them at Sunday's Fan BBQ.

So long to the "Kitchener" shirts patterned after the Habs 3rd set.

Anybody still got one of those "Bandit" ones from 2002?

C-Mac heads East

Chris MacKinnon will pursue his degree and play hockey at Saint Mary's University in Halifax.

His agent tells me C-Mac had some AHL opportunities but decided on school.

Yes, that's where Mike Danton plays.

"Muzzle Motion" passes

Rangers subscriber John Cosman was laughed at by fellow subscribers at tonight's AGM at Kinsmen Arena.

His earnest pleas to defeat a new team by-law garnered no support.

The bylaw requires all motions to first be approved by the board of directors before they can be presented at the AGM.

Cosman sees it as a way for the executive and directors to silence him and other dissenters.

The team sees it as a way to exclude "frivolous" motions.

Motions can still be presented without B of D approval, provided five-percent of the membership signs a petition to do so.

Morin is eligible for AHL: Blackhawks

Despite being told otherwise by various sources this summer, the Chicago Blackhawks believe Jeremy Morin is eligible to be assigned to the AHL this season, should they choose.

That's the word for Norm MacIver, Chicago's director of player development.

That could be a blow to the Rangers, since the 19-year-old Morin is signed.

Thanks to Ron for prodding me into inquiring again on this issue.

So long RPI

Jerry D'Amigo has signed with the Leafs.

Hoping to chat with him momentarily. Key possible piece for the Rangers.

Just talked to . . . Jerry D'Amigo

Report from Sunaya Sapurji at Yahoo! says he's gonna sign with the Leafs and leave RPI.

The Rangers are a real possibility for the US world junior standout.

More in Tuesday's Record.
