Happy Holidays everyone! Live From the Blue Seats is going to be back at it some time tomorrow, releasing the same day. Unsure what time, but we are aiming for tomorrow morning. Use this post to submit your questions for us, as there's a lot to talk about with this Rangers team. As always, we will be answering your questions as well.
Reinvent Albany said in a statement that the bill - S6815/ A8292 - is "bad policy and bad governance" because "it is not the role of the Legislature to manage New York City bus lanes and be involved in the day-to-day operations of MTA buses." "The bill allows MTA workers to cite being on the clock and in an agency vehicle to defend themselves from prosecutions for parking violations," the group added.
The Canes controlled most of the game due to their style of play and some questionable officiating that put them on multiple powerplays, but the Rangers top talent had better finishing in their limited shooting attempts. Igor Shesterkin rebounded nicely after a few off games as well. Carolina was again done in by the Rangers breaking their formula and taking advantage of their bad goaltending.
The Pacific Division is a hot mess right now. It's hyper-competitive with the top six teams separated by five points (as of the afternoon of Nov. 18). This parity means that every team is imperfect and has at least one trait that should make fans nervous. Some clubs can't score, some have worrying play in between the pipes, and a few look great until you dig into the numbers.
Now instead of questions regarding results on home ice, they can now shift to other matters on the team in the day-to-day operation. Vincent Trocheck was missed way more than many of us could have imagined. His line with Alexis Lafreniere and Artemi Panarin had an absolutely stellar hockey game. These nights have not been prevalent this season, and hopefully with the new blood in Gabe Perreault joining Trocheck in the lineup may the team now go on a run?
Live From the Blue Seats is recording tonight as the crew discusses the last week of Rangers hockey, from the good to the bad to the ugly and everything in between. There's a lot to discuss, as the process has been good, but the results have been bad. How long do you wait out good process if results don't come? How much of it is personnel related and how much of it just requires patience?
Community organizer Jibreel Jalloh of Canarsie, Brooklyn, filed Wednesday to challenge Assembly Member Jaime Williams in the June 2026 Democratic primary for District 59. "We are knowing this true affordability crisis in our city, and I believe we have a lack of leadership right now that doesn't address that," he told City & State. "This campaign is going to be focused on the future, on bringing down the cost of living."
Among the 19th-century rowhouses of Bedford Street in New York's West Village its enduring, the city's narrowest townhouse stands that just 8 feet, 7 inches wide. Fronted by a three-story brick facade, the unusual home at 75 1/2 Bedford Street was built in 1873. Now listed by Sotheby's International Realty, the renovated residence distills a century and a half of adaptation into a vertical sequence of precisely composed domestic spaces.
A Fox News poll released October 30 found Mamdani leading with 47 percent among likely voters, followed by Cuomo at 31 percent and Sliwa with 15 percent. Among registered voters, Mamdani drops slightly to 45 percent and Sliwa rises to 16 percent while Cuomo holds at 31 percent. The poll surveyed 971 New York City likely voters from October 24 to October 28.
"a lot of small property owners and local businesses are being told to follow rules that are physically impossible to comply with. I've heard from deli owners, barbers, and landlords who have no alley, no yard, no storage space - but are still getting fined for not having a place to put these bins. That's not good government; that's bureaucracy gone wild."
"Am I angry I'm not the one taking down Zohran, the socialist and communist? You're darn right I am," Adams said, as he stood alongside a smiling Cuomo in Harlem. "We're fighting against a snake-oil salesman."

Since the Islanders can't give up on their franchise goalie, something had to give. That something was Greco. Sports clubs are run just like corporations. Typically, high-level executives fire mid-level managers to light a fire under teams. The rationale lies in the following: It's easier to replace one person than the entire team. In some instances, highly talented, productive employees stagnate when their managers just don't jive with them anymore. That situation often necessitates a switch that could push the reset button for employees.
No, they didn't get shut out for a fourth straight game at home. But they also lost again at home, falling to the Wild, 3-1, to leave them 0-for-4 at Madison Square Garden this season. And unlike after their previous two home losses, to Washington and Edmonton, where they felt they'd played well enough to win, they couldn't say that after this one.
Resorts World New York City has submitted its supplemental application to the New York State Gaming Facility Location Board, which required applicants to submit material such as projected tax revenue before the Oct. 14 deadline. In major news, MGM Resorts announced that it was withdrawing its application to expand its Empire City "racino" in Yonkers ahead of the deadline, leaving just three bids competing for up to three commercial casino licenses.
The New York State Department of Transportation has quietly announced that it was pausing work on a controversial highway expansion in the Hudson Valley that locals opposed. Earlier this month, the agency posted, but did not distribute, a statement on its website announcing that the Route 17 widening project in the Catskills - long regarded as one of the biggest highway boondoggles in the state - had been put on ice.
With Vincent Trocheck out, the Rangers lines tonight are changing, though likely not as much as people would like. There will be no recalls, so no prospects are rejoining the Rangers. Juuso Parssinen draws in as Mika Zibanejad shifts back to centering the top line and Conor Sheary replaces Zibanejad at wing on the second line. Parssinen will take Sheary's spot on the third line.
We ask because Vegas Golden Knights center Jack Eichel looks like he'll obliterate his career high in goals (36) while skating with Ivan Barbashev and the newly acquired Mitch Marner this season -- a line with incredible chemistry already at the start of the season. But ultimately, a superstar can't be a breakout player. That's reserved for players who are known but not yet household names. Or players we've been waiting to see blossom since their draft year.
It looks like Noah Laba made the team. The New York Rangers practice lines today included Laba as the third line center between Conor Sheary and Taylor Raddysh, seemingly confirming that Laba (and Sheary) have made the team. Laba was easily the best player in camp and won the Lars-Erik Sjoberg award for the top player in Rangers preseason, scoring six points in all six games and forcing coach Mike Sullivan to alter his initial plans.
