We did end up getting a chance to catch up with Othmann this morning, and he was pretty blunt about his trade request and wanting a fresh start.

"I just never got a fair leash."

Here's more from our chat with the former #NYR first-round pick 👇 https://t.co/hM6dgJqMYF

With the Rangers and Knicks splitting into separate publicly traded companies last month, the SEC released filings that opened the books on #NYR’s operating costs, revenue streams and more.

I read through the 200+ pages and spoke to multiple sports economists to decipher what it all means. Here’s a free look at our initial findings👇🏼 https://t.co/OmjwdmjgIC

[The Athletic @TheAthletic]

In his first time addressing the media in Winnipeg since being traded from the Jets, Connor Hellebuyck claimed that things that happened to his family pushed him over the edge in terms of requesting a trade.

Connor Hellebuyck back on the ice in Winnipeg

[Vince Z. Mercogliano @vzmercogliano]

The #NYR held the high-powered Oilers to 20 shots and only two high-danger scoring chances, yet still left Edmonton with a loss.

"I thought we deserved a better fate."

FINAL- #LetsGoOilers 3, #NYR 1

Rangers put forth a valiant effort but still got burned a couple times by the Edmonton stars and squandered all 5 power-play opportunities. Now 1-7-1 when the opposing team scores first.

[Kaitlyn Pohly @KaitlynDPohly]

Connor Hellebuyck will not start in net for the #NJDevils versus his former #GoJetsGo team tomorrow.

Alberts Šmits (upper body) is out week-to-week, per the Rangers.

[Vince Z. Mercogliano @vzmercogliano]

Adam Fox isn’t as fast, strong or flashy as some other top D-men, which has caused him to fade in the debate about the NHL’s best. But if you don’t think he belongs in the conversation, you’re simply not paying attention.

“Everyone’s got their own flavor of affecting a game.”

I sat down with No. 23 to talk about his excellent start and exactly how he’s making such an outsized impact for #NYR. Here’s a free link 👇🏼 https://t.co/auFjr2Bzyg

[The Athletic @TheAthletic]

Connor Hellebuyck will not start Tuesday’s game against the Jets, but will hold media availability, the Devils announced.

“Connor Hellebuyck was adamant that he felt a duty to play on Tuesday in Winnipeg. However, in our estimation, playing in this game would potentially give us a reduction in our expected win probability," GM Sunny Mehta said.

[Chris Johnston @reporterchris]

Sheldon Keefe cites Connor Hellebuyck's workload as a big reason he won't play in Winnipeg. That would have been his 4th start in 8 days.

"From our perspective, when you zoom out, this is a goaltender that is not going to play every single game of the season. You’re always looking for times to give him a night off."

[Peter Baugh @Peter_Baugh]

Here's our initial hit on the Devils' decision to sit Connor Hellebuyck on Tuesday against the Jets. We'll update further with reaction @reporterchris gathers from the Devils' postgame media availabilities in Toronto.

[Chris Johnston @reporterchris]

Connor Hellebuyck says he's "disappointed" he won't be able to "face the music" in Winnipeg.

"It's out of my hands."

[Peter Baugh @Peter_Baugh]

Sunny Mehta says Connor Hellebuyck will not play in his return game to Winnipeg but will hold a media availability.

This New Yorker feature on Jontay Porter and sports gambling addition is fascinating, devastating and very much worth your time:
