Rob O’Gara sounded excited as he talked about the next chapter in his hockey career. The 26-year-old from Nesconset, who played for the Rangers’ Hartford Wolf Pack farm team last season, signed a contract Monday with the San Antonio Rampage of the American Hockey League, the top farm team of the Stanley Cup champion St. Louis Blues.
“I’m excited because it’s kind of a clean slate, and I don’t think a lot of people are expecting a lot from me,’’ O’Gara said in a telephone interview this week.
