It's tough. We've had some good practices, we've had some good skates and our legs should be good. As far as conditioning, it's tough to really duplicate the battling and stuff that you're going to see [in a game]. I think that's just a mental thing. You've got to be ready to go. Obviously, I don't thin...

08:26 AM ET 05.03 | Marc Bergevin may have some cleaning to do -- housecleaning, that is. The Montreal Canadiens are poised to eat Scott Gomez's rich contract, according to reports out of La Belle Province. The Canadiens plan to buy out the remaining two

They then insisted that Zdeno Chara be let go in free agency so that the Senators could retain the services of known double agent Wade ...
Shawn Horcoff. Keith Ballard. Matt Stajan. Mike Komisarek. The list is a lot longer than that, but it sometimes feels like every team in the league has a player or two whose contracts they’d love to make disappear. That’s why some sort of amnesty buyout

They've got a good team, obviously ... We just have to outwork them. We can't give them any opportunities, can't make mistakes. They're going to hurt us. We've got to be playing smart and eliminating their chances as much as possible. … We did that [against Bridgeport].
Madison Square Garden no longer serves as a retirement home for unrestricted free agents. Scott Gomez, Chris Drury, Wade Redden, Bobby Holik and Valeri Kamensky are just some of the expensive busts over the last 20 years. Instead, the Rangers are winning with home-grown talent : Lundqvist in goal; cente...
We didn't get it done ... You can look back at a number of things. We had them up 2-1 at home, Game 6 at home, and we couldn't, you know.
Wade Redden special AHL tour
I definitely think I have a lot of hockey left ... All I can do is keep working hard while I'm here.
I obviously didn’t play there for a while, and the rest of the body also had time off, not just the knee was healing
I actually got that nickname from (defenseman) Paul Mara when I was in New York ... He’s a good guy, and I don’t know how it kind of stuck. He was ‘Uncle Paulie’ and I was ‘Papa Reds.’ The (Whale) guys picked up on it, and I just think it comes with the territory being an older guy. But it’s all in fun,...

It’s been awhile since Dane has been traded, and no one had been named captain, though that’s not a huge deal for the team not to have one. There’s obviously a good group of guys here ...
We’ve worked hard to get where we are, and there’s a lot of big games left so we want to do the things that make us successful and do them real hard ... We don’t want to change much at this time because we’ve worked hard to build ourselves into the team we want to be. Now we just have to trust in each o...
