Comments on: If not for themselves… http://rangers.lohudblogs.com/2008/01/16/if-not-for-themselves/ News and insight about the New York Rangers Sun, 22 Nov 2009 16:07:51 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: stuart http://rangers.lohudblogs.com/2008/01/16/if-not-for-themselves/comment-page-1/#comment-63642 stuart Thu, 17 Jan 2008 04:00:20 +0000 http://rangers.lohudblogs.com/2008/01/16/if-not-for-themselves/#comment-63642 my evaluation of the game.. the kid line was there best line.. If the minutes are accurate Renny needs to fall out of love with the 4th line and give the 3rd line more time.... the problem is the same; jagr cannot finish, and if they could score goals in the middle of the pack in the league there defensive breakdowns which are really not many would not be so hurtful.. on the buff. goal the jagr line did not get back and they had a 4 on 2. staal looked like he played well today, recently it looks like his play ws slipping a little. take the 2 points anyway you can and try to build some confidence but they need to score some goals.... my evaluation of the game.. the kid line was there best line..

staal looked like he played well today, recently it looks like his play ws slipping a little.

take the 2 points anyway you can and try to build some confidence but they need to score some goals….

When they aren't, I eat a big lunch before I get to MSG. Because if they're losing, they won't make their bonus clauses, so they won't need my popcorn money! Trickle-up economics, right? They win in Boston Saturday, I'll gladly buy popcorn on Sunday. Think I buy t-shirts during losing streaks? Ha. Yeah, I'm loopy from the home win. Bless li'l Petr Prucha. Instead of the DDP Line, can't we simply dust off The Kid Line? Please....? It’s true, when the Rangers are winning, I’ll splurge for the nearly five dollar box o popcorn.

As for me, they can and should be traded if there are any GM asking for them. I would not trade Prucha, Dubinsky , Dawes, Stall, Drury, Gomez , Avery, or Moore . They are untouchables for any player over 33 regardless of the players past. Or under 30 without at least 40 points so far this year.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the ice times for the players on that line: • Dawes 7:08 • Dubinsky 6:25 • Prucha 8:51 That is absolutely disgusting. Only 11 shifts averaged between them while Drury gets 29, Orr gets 19, Jagr gets 21, just to name a few. JEEZ!! Now I'm pissed. I think they’re back to their old ways of winning despite Renney.
