The New York Rangers face big decisions on several of their defensemen both before and after the March 7 NHL trade deadline.

One of the teams to deny the Rangers a win in the past 10 games is the Avalanche, who rallied for a 3-2 overtime win on Jan. 14 during New York’s successful three-game road trip. Artturi Lehkonen scored the tying goal with 1:13 left In regulation and Devon Toews scored the game-winner 4:23 into overtime.

NEW YORK — Defenseman K’Andre Miller had a goal and an assist and Igor Shesterkin made 35 saves as the surging New York Rangers routed the Philadelphia Flyers 6-1 on Thursday night.

We know the recent efforts of the New York Rangers to land J.T. Miller have stalled, but we now know more about why. Here's the latest on the rumors.

Igor Shesterkin's shutout streak ended but the Rangers offense kicked into high gear in a 6-1 win at Madison Square Garden on Thursday.

“The noise about Miller and the Rangers, with whom the 15th overall selection of the 2011 draft spent the first five-plus seasons of his career, will spike," Brooks wrote. "Candidates to go the other way will be named. Alexis Lafreniere would be one, Branden Schneider would be the other.”

The Rangers’ climb back into the playoff picture is a reflection of how well they’ve been playing of late (8-1-3 in January). It also shows how deep of a hole they dug earlier in the year: They’ve had a sustained stretch of strong hockey and still haven’t fully erased the damage.

Schneider scored a goal Thursday in a 6-1 win over the Flyers. It was a bit of fluke, but a goal is a goal. Schneider tied the game 1-1 at 9:00 of the first period when his pass to a Reilly Smith hit Egor Zamula's stick and went in.

Owen Tippett scored the opening goal of the game for the Flyers. With the loss, the Orange and Black’s three-game winning streak also comes to an end.
