The Hockey Maven Picks His Five Favorite Rangers

Anybody can like a star; it's the easiest thing in the world. But only a special few can root hard for the lesser lights. The Maven happens to be one of them. So, here's the summertime edition of "My Five Favorite Rangers." By the way, no agreement on your part is necessary. After all, we can agree to disagree, can't we? (Please say yes, or I might just might shed a tear.) 1. WILL CUYLLE: I especially like guys who come out of nowhere and suddenly emerge as useful characters. This 23-year-old, 6-3, 210 pounder out of Toronto is more than useful. He hits; hits some more, scores and coach Sullivan only wishes he had ten more like him. Plus, More-Than-Willing Will has emerged as a key figure in "The New Core." (What's not to like?) 2. JONNY BRODZINSKI: Ham Lake, Minnesota's gift to Manhattan was listed as "fifth center" a year ago. That was another way of saying, "Enjoy, Hartford, Pal." And, if you really wanna know the truth, 32-year-old Brod would have been perfectly happy, working with young Wolf Pack prospects. But Jonny was such a successful fill-in that management preferred him with the Big Club. (He should be a fixture this year.) 3. BRADEN SCHNEIDER: Unobtrusively, and without any fuss or fanfare this model of a solid, all-round defender should be regarded as the Number Two blue liner right behind Adam Fox. Just 24, Schneid has reached his prime simply by doing the right things at his position; as opposed to K'Andre Miller who was listed #2 a year ago. (We found out what a mistake that was, didn't we?) Promise For The Rangers Or Failure? Who Do You Want To Believe? Let's not kid ourselves, at this point of midsummer it's impossible how the Rangers will fare in the fall, winter or spring next season. 4. ADAM EDSTROM: The Swede's buddy, Matt Rempe, could take some lessons from his alter ego skyscraper. Adam doesn't do what Matt does. Edstrom doesn't get suspended; he doesn't do crazy, illegal board checks and he plays smart. Rempe should have spent the summer taking lessons from Edstrom. Right now it appears that Adam is a sure thing in terms of making the varsity. The Remper? (No guarantees at this time.) 5. JONATHAN QUICK: The S.O.S. Man, Long Jon has become the backup goalie's backup goalie. He's also commodore-in-chief behind the scenes, especially in the clubhouse. (Quite frankly, if the spirit moved him. Quckie could shout "Hallelujah" and play two more seasons.)

Jonny Brodzinski preps for Rangers season with summer league hat trick in Da Beauty League

If the NHL changes to a 4-on-4, no-checking format next season, Jonny Brodzsinki should be in line for a big year with the New York Rangers. Kidding aside, it was fun to see the Rangers forward record a hat trick in the Da Beauty League on Wednesday night. Da Beauty League is a popular summer hockey league in Minnesota that features plenty of professional players. Checking is forbidden, there's plenty of open ice playing 4-on-4, and defense is absolutely optional. There are other quirky rules that've helped make this an extremely popular league to play in during the offseason. Brodzinski, a Minnesota native, has averaged 3.4 points per game in the glorified shinny contests since 2022. His hat trick for Team Walser on Wednesday was his sixth in 19 'career' games in Da Beauty League. As you can see in the videos, playing defense is not a big part of these games, and it's not exactly fun being a Da Beauty League goalie. While there are plenty of big-time NHL forwards and defenseman who play in this summer league, there aren't many recognizable goalies. At the end of the day, it's a fun part of the summer workout routine for many players, like Brodzinski, and breaks up the training grind. Related: Jonny Brodzinski preparing to battle for lineup spot at Rangers training camp Things turn a bit more serious for the 32-year-old when he returns to New York for training camp in September. Coming off a career-high 12 goals in 51 games last season, Brodzinski is in the mix to center the Rangers third line, or possibly fourth line should Sam Carrick be moved up by new coach Mike Sullivan. Of course, there's also the Mika Zibanejad factor which will impact Brodzinski one way or another. If Zibanejad plays center next season, the Rangers are four deep down the middle with him, J.T. Miller, Vincent Trocheck and Carrick. That leaves Brodzinski battling for a spot on the wing in the bottom six, or as the 13th forward, a role he's very familiar with. If Zibanejad plays right wing in the top six, that opens up a spot down the middle. In that scenario, Brodzinski will compete with Juuso Parssinen primarily for a spot in the top-12 forward group. It's hard to imagine Brodzinski not having a role with the Rangers in 2025-26, his final season before he can become an unrestricted free agent. He's emerged the past two seasons as a versatile and trusted player for the Blueshirts, not to mention a leader, primarily for the younger players. Whether Sullivan views him as a lineup regular or someone who can slot in and out, up and down, the lineup remains to be seen. For now, he's just enjoying lighting the lamp back home in Da Beauty League.
