Evan Grant offers some thoughts and comments on the Rangers' situation and the aftermath of last night's game.

The most eye-opening is the suggestion that Thomas Diamond may be up here sooner rather than later -- as in, possibly Tuesday's game against Toronto.

Diamond was, of course, pegged as a Guy To Watch this spring, someone who had support from folks in the organization and who was looked at as a possible candidate to open the season in the pen.

He had a very disappointing spring, and was never really in the mix, but given where things stand now, it sounds like we could be seeing him in the near future.
