They probably deserved better given how they played, but #NYR lose to #TimeToHunt 3-2 in Jonathan Quick’s final start. Quick went right to the room, but the Panthers lingered on the ice until he came back out. Pretty cool gesture — and moment.

Here’s a close look at Fortescue’s release #NYR👇🏼

Nice play and really cool moment for the rookie Jaroslav Chmelař for his first NHL goal #NYR

Very cool gesture from former #NYR forward and current #mnwild Mats Zuccarello, who’s wearing a No. 40 jersey with the last name “Rosen” for warmups to honor our guy Sam before his retirement.

Surprising to see no tribute video for Ryan Lindgren, but he does get a nice hand from the crowd. #NYR

Panarin did his usual routine as the last player on the ice, with the MSG crowd saluting him on the way off.

Well, well, well. We have a Matt Rempe sighting at #NYR practice. (In a non-contact jersey.)

Here’s top prospect Gabe Perreault with a goal, then another from TJ Hughes #NYR

Same thing for Kaapo Kakko #NYR

The MSG crowd salutes Sam and his wife, Jill #SaluteToSam

🚨 GOALIE FIGHT 🚨

What a playoffs this former #NYR is having…

Oh no: Miller went lunging to save a puck here and came up favoring his leg. You can see he’s in pain and he heads off to the locker room. #NYR

Newest #NYR prospect Liam Greentree with a three-point game tonight for xy - Windsor Spitfires, including this goal. He’s up to 48 points (24 goals and 24 assists) through 36 games.

Newest #NYR prospect Liam Greentree is on fire. Hat trick tonight after scoring twice last night 🔥

Look at ya boy

Also a three-point night for #NYR prospect Nathan Aspinall, including two goals. The 2024 fifth-round pick leads the OHL with 71 points 26G and 45A) through 48 games. A big riser this season.

Lengthy tribute for Chris Kreider, followed by a rousing ovation from the MSG faithful. He even showed some emotion, coming off the bench for a lap to salute the crowd while patting his heart. #NYR

Now Alexis Lafrenière hits 20 goals in a season for the second time in his career #NYR

Panarin gets his welcome back at MSG

Back to being the last guy on the ice #NYR

Rookie lap for Noah Laba in the new centennial jersey #NYR

If there’s a time for Laviolette to breakout this intermission speech, it’s probably now…

Another game at MSG, another loss for the #NYR, who have only won five times in 20 tries on home ice. Michelle Margaux and I have the report for SNY on what went wrong this time and what it all means looking ahead to the trade deadline 👇🏼

Practice is winding down, but all the defensemen stuck around. David Quinn has been going over wall work pretty extensively with them for the last 10 minutes. #NYR

Hartford lost for the 8th time in its last 9 games tonight, but Dylan Garand helped keep it close with this highlight save in the second period 👇🏼

Jumped on SNY last night to discuss the Peter Laviolette firing, where the #NYR might look to replace him and how long the search could take 👇🏼

On a more positive note, #NYR prospect Ty Henricks (2023 sixth round) became a national champion yesterday with WMU Hockey, scoring this goal in the final win over BU 👇🏼

Here’s the SNY report with Eamon McAnaney from yesterday’s Mike Sullivan introduction #NYR 👇🏼
