The off-season officially begins in about a month from now. The playoffs will be over, the draft will be just a couple days away and free agency will follow after that.
When an NHL franchise misses the playoffs, regardless of reason, changes need to be made. And New Jersey is no different.

Brad Richards wasn't in uniform for the Rangers' do-or-die Game 4 Thursday night, which shocked only those who haven't watched this team the last six weeks.
john tortorella "By no means is this a situation where I take him out, where I'm blaming him, I'm playing Brad on the fourth line, playing seven or eight minutes -- it's not good for him. It doesn't work playing Brad Richards that way."

There will be no second-round sweeps in the 2013 NHL Playoffs. The Rangers battled back from a 2-0 deficit early in the second period to win 4-3 in overtime and force a Game 5.
The Boston Bruins came into the third period of Game 4 against the New York Rangers with a 2-1 lead after two power-play goals in the second, but that lead didn't last long. Just 1:15 into the third period, Derek St

It certainly must have been an agonizing decision for coach John Tortorella. But he phoned veteran Brad Richards, whom he has coached for two NHL teams, Thursday morning, long before Game 4 against the Bruins, a game that could spell the end of the Rangers' season, to tell him that he wouldn't be playing.
Brad Richards "I don't know if surprised is the right word, I'm disappointed . . . It's not over . . . I have to work harder, try my best that this never happens again."
Brad Richards "Yes."

The Rangers are on the verge of losing their Eastern Conference semifinal series, but the question now is whether John Tortorella will lose the locker room.
Brad Richards "I don’t know if surprise is the right word, I’m just disappointed."
Arron Asham "Obviously, it’s a big thing, It’s unfortunate for Brad. He’s one of the premier players in the league, and he’s going through a rough streak. That’s the way it goes. We’re all in this together, and I’m pretty sure no one’s hanging their head. We need to get a win, and we’ve got to do what it takes. That’s the way it goes."

On a personal level, his tireless efforts to help the victims of Hurricane Sandy completely outside of the media spotlight were beyond admirable, and is something I will not soon forget.I’m simply elaborating on a scenario that, quite simply, I

"I think at the start of the [Washington] series we had some good looks but didn’t score . . . then it kind of just took on a life of its own, We started pressing on it, kind of lost ourselves a little bit, had some chances to maybe win a game along the way but didn’t and sometimes that can have the reverse effect."

"In the first, there's a lot of hiked-up energy, sometimes useless energy, inexperienced teams might take stupid penalties and lose a game or two. In the second, it seems like that's weeded out a bit and the emotion is more controlled and calculated. Everybody still has the energy but the importance is amped up more. You have to stay out of the box. It gets tighter and tighter as you go."

"We're not facing the same structure in the power play [against the Bruins], We have to adjust, that's what we were doing today, how we play their pressure."
