Key takeaways from Rangers' 2025-26 NHL schedule release
Access the Rangers beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Mollie Walker about the inside buzz on the Rangers. tRY IT NOW The 2025-26 season can't start soon enough for the Rangers, who are looking to return to playoff contention and distance themselves from the catastrophe that was last season. As they work to do so, however, the Blueshirts will have to face a tour of former players. It's a journey of their own making after the team took a nosedive in the standings early last year, which led to the departures of several lineup regulars in the first significant roster shake-up since the deadline purge of 2018. Tribute videos will be played on the Madison Square Garden jumbotron. Emotions will run high. 5 Rangers new head coach Mike Sullivan during his introductory press conference on May 8, 2025 at Madison Square Garden Training Center. Robert Sabo for NY Post The Rangers core as we once knew it will be scattered across the league, with a reminder in nearly every crevice of the 82-game schedule that was unveiled Wednesday afternoon. Beginning on Opening Night, ex-assistant coach Dan Muse and the Penguins will venture to MSG. That also means new Rangers head coach Mike Sullivan, who left Pittsburgh after 10 years this summer, will get to face his former team for the first time very early in the season. He will also make his grand return to the Steel City just four days later, after the Rangers open the road schedule at Buffalo. 5 Zac Jones looks on during the third period of an NHL preseason game against the Islanders at Madison Square Garden on Sept. 24, 2024. Noah K. Murray-NY Post If Zac Jones makes the Sabres lineup out of training camp, the 24-year-old defenseman would be the first ex-Ranger from last season's turmoil on the circuit. He could get the first crack at the club he never quite fit into, which led to him becoming a free agent this summer — after the Rangers didn't qualify him and he signed a one-year, two-way deal with the Sabres. The Rangers could see Filip Chytil for the first time since they traded the Czech Center to the Canucks, when they head to Vancouver on Oct. 28 as part of a four-game swing out west. 5 Filip Chytil Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post Since he suffered another concussion after the trade, Chytil couldn't play when the Canucks visited the Garden last season. Chytil, who said he plans to be ready by September, is set to return to MSG on Dec. 16. Just after visiting Chytil, the Rangers will see Kaapo Kakko and Ryan Lindgren in Seattle on Nov. 1 at the end of the western Canada swing. Though Kakko had a strong start to his Kraken tenure, Lindgren will just be getting started after signing a four-year, $18 million deal as a free agent from Colorado. 5 K'Andre Miller looks on during a Rangers game against the Panthers at Amerant Bank Arena last season. Sam Navarro-Imagn Images K'Andre Miller and the Hurricanes will be at the Garden on Nov. 4 for a highly anticipated matchup, after the Rangers traded the No. 22 pick in 2018 to Carolina earlier this month. Coming off a tough season, the 25-year-old blueliner will be looking to make a statement not only for his new club, but against his former one. Dec. 15 is also sure to be a memorable one, considering both ex-captain Jacob Trouba and 13-year Ranger Chris Kreider will be stepping back into MSG for the first time when the Ducks come to town. The Rangers already saw Trouba when they went to Anaheim last season, but the 31-year-old has not returned to the Garden since his tumultuous exit from the organization in early December. 5 Chris Kreider (center) celebrates with teammates after scoring during the third period of the Rangers' home game against the Lightning last season. AP Kreider, who was traded to Anaheim in June, is sure to be given a warm welcome back in New York. A front-loaded schedule, which features 23 road games of the first 41, will lead into a second half that includes a seven-game home stand at the end of March into early April. All four meetings with the Islanders are before the March 6 trade deadline. All three meetings with the Devils are after the trade deadline. The path back to Stanley Cup relevancy is set for the Rangers, with plenty of familiar faces to serve as frightful reminders and guide the way.

Aura Minerals sets US IPO at $24.25 per share
Canadian miner Aura Minerals has priced its 8.1 million common shares at $24.25 per share for a US initial public offering (IPO). The company expects to raise $196.4m from the offering, as reported by Reuters. The net proceeds will be allocated to initiatives to strengthen its business: the acquisition of Mineração Serra Grande (MSG), advancing development projects such as Era Dorada and Matupá, and expanding mineral reserves through exploration. The company has been approved to transfer its principal listing to the Nasdaq Global Select Market, a move expected to enhance the liquidity of its shares and diversify its investor base. In early July 2025, the company stated that it was preparing to list its shares on the Nasdaq. Underwriters have a 30-day option to purchase up to an extra 1.2 million shares at the offering price, minus discounts and commissions. Global coordinators for the offering are BofA Securities and Goldman Sachs, with BTG Pactual and Itaú BBA as joint bookrunners. Co-managers are Bradesco BBI, National Bank of Canada Financial Markets, RBC Capital Markets and Scotiabank. Aura has clarified that shareholders' preemptive rights are excluded as per the company's regulations. No preemptive rights will be granted to Brazilian Depositary Receipts holders concerning the public offering. The offering is not considered a public offering in Brazil under local securities laws and regulations. In June 2025, AngloGold Ashanti reached an agreement to sell its stake in the MSG mine in Goiás, Brazil, to Aura Minerals for $76m (R1.36bn) cash deal. Aura's portfolio currently comprises five active mining operations: the Minosa gold mine in Honduras, the Almas, Apoena, and Borborema gold mines in Brazil, and the Aranzazu mine in Mexico. In addition to these producing assets, the company holds the Era Dorada gold project in Guatemala and the Tolda Fria gold project in Colombia. Its Brazilian assets are the Matupá, São Francisco project and the Carajás copper projects.

Jamal Crawford on Isiah Thomas benching him early in 52-point game at MSG: "I would have got 65, easy"
Jamal Crawford on Isiah Thomas benching him early in 52-point game at MSG: "I would have got 65, easy" originally appeared on Basketball Network. Jamal Crawford had 52 points against the Miami Heat in 2007, including a stretch of 16 straight made shots. Yet with nearly seven minutes still on the clock, New York Knicks head coach Isiah Thomas pulled him out for good. Advertisement Why did Thomas cut his career night short? According to Crawford, he had a noble reason for doing so. "Well, I know why he took me out," Crawford told KnicksFanTV. "He took me out because, I think, when you go back, the brawl happened with Denver earlier that season. Isiah just had a respect for the game that when they took out their best player, we're taking out you." "So, I came out when (Dwyane) Wade came out. When they took Wade out, it's time for you to come out. He's always big on respecting the game and not getting to the personal part of it," he added. Crawford couldn't get any hotter Jason Kapono replaced Dwyane Wade at the 7:08 mark of the final quarter. Seconds later, Thomas sent Mardy Collins to check in for Crawford, who scored his last basket to put the Knicks up 110-85. Advertisement The Denver-New York brawl did happen earlier that season, a month before Crawford's 52-point explosion. The fight reportedly happened because the Nuggets' coach, George Karl, left J.R. Smith and his starters on the floor when the game had already been decided. Perhaps, Thomas didn't want to make the same mistake. Still, one can't help but wonder what could've been if he had left Crawford on the floor longer. The retired guard, though, knows he would've made that night even more historic. "I do personally remember that was the hottest night of my life. CP, I'm gonna be honest with you, because I came out with seven minutes left. If I stayed in that game and I played the whole time, I think I would have got 65, easy. Easy and not even forcing that," Crawford said with a straight face. The Knicks guard hit 20 out of his 30 shots and drilled eight 3-pointers on 10 attempts. It's also safe to assume his teammates would've fed him the ball had he stayed on the court. That makes the 65-point mark seem very reachable. Advertisement Related: CJ McCollum explains the difference between a good and a great NBA player: "I've seen LeBron ice in the club" 10 points shy of the MSG record If Crawford's hunch were correct — that he had 65 in him that night — he would've walked away with the most points ever scored at Madison Square Garden. That honor belongs to Carmelo Anthony, who lit up the Charlotte Bobcats for 62 points in January 2014. Before that, Kobe Bryant held the record, thanks to his 61-point performance in February 2009. LeBron James also had quite a night at the Big Apple on February 4, 2009, finishing with 52 points, nine rebounds and 11 assists. Advertisement The list of all-time Garden scorers includes Bernard King, who poured in 60 on Christmas Day in 1984, Michael Jordan's 55-point masterpiece in 1995 and Patrick Ewing's career-high 50 in 1990. King's record stood for 25 years in the history books before Bryant rewrote it. With nearly seven minutes left, Crawford had a lot of time to ensure he sat at the top of the list. If Thomas had let him finish the job, history might have read differently.

Justin Baldoni's legal team hit back at Blake Lively over deposition location request
The response ended: 'Although Lively's foot-stomping and use of her celebrity status may have enabled her to seize control of the film, which is the crux of this dispute, her counsel's tantrum has no place in this court. Lively is bound by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure like every litigant...' Blake's request came after a lawyer for Baldoni – whose counterclaims against Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds for extortion and defamation were dismissed last month – previously said he wanted the deposition to be taken in public for people to see. Attorney Bryan Freedman told People magazine in May: 'Hold the deposition at MSG, sell tickets or stream it, and donate every dollar to organisations helping victims of domestic abuse.' Following the court filing, Lively's representatives hit out at the 41-year-old actor's team. They told People magazine: 'Ms Lively is looking forward to her deposition next week, and it should follow the same rules as every other witness in this case. 'Justin Baldoni's lawyer has tried to make this matter a public spectacle at every turn, even proposing to sell tickets to a televised deposition at Madison Square Garden. 'This is a serious matter of sexual harassment and retaliation and it deserves to be treated as such.' The new filing revealed Lively, 37, asked the judge to block Baldoni and his team from selecting where the deposition takes place. Her lawyers wrote: '[Baldoni's team have] not denied that their intent is to manufacture a harassing publicity stunt by requiring Ms Lively to parade through paparazzi, or by inviting unknown attendees to the deposition, including members of the media or social media influencers, or any other number of abusive tactics. 'Since virtually the inception of this litigation, Defendants have used even the prospect of Ms Lively's deposition to generate press interest. 'The high-profile nature of this litigation, and the nature of Ms Lively's retaliation claims, demonstrates a substantial risk of the deposition turning into a publicity event and potentially attracting interested individuals who could pose security risks.' The Another Simple Favour star's lawyers insisted the filing was a 'reasonable request to prevent the risk of annoyance, harassment, and verbal or physical threats,' and alleged Baldoni's team 'appear to seek another public relations moment, or to create conditions for intimidation or harassment'. A trial is set for March 2026.
