Vincent Trocheck becoming Rangers’ emotional heartbeat with time running out to fix mess
NY Post
Vincent Trocheck has emerged as the Rangers’ public conscience in the wake of Jacob Trouba’s Dec. 13 exit to Anaheim, but the club’s first-line center insists he is not attempting to fill a void in leadership but is only being himself.
“That’s never changed with me,” Trocheck told The Post after the Blueshirts reconvened for practice following the NHL’s three-day winter recess. “It wasn’t any different when Jacob was here.
“I’ve been vocal most of my career. I think that’s just the kind of person I am. I wear my emotions on my sleeve. Truthfully, it hasn’t really changed.”
Following Monday’s 5-0 pantsing by the Devils in New Jersey, Trocheck pretty much called out the team for a lack of heart. He had made pointed postgame comments a number of times.

SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
