Funny response, and I completely respect your opinion. I just think this guy is clearly one of the 10 best players ever to play the game, and frankly, has put forth effort here and at times been unstoppable in a Ranger uniform. He's no Lafleur, he's more like Gretzky at the worst in that sense. I do agree that the Rangers need to use him as a piece and not "the guy." But I'm not sure he cares if he's "the guy" or not - I think if they start winning and he starts to feel as though it doesn't all deoend on him producing, then ironically he'll probably start to produce more. “peter, pardon me while I barf.

OTT can't keep up with their injuries. Speaking of that...anyone see that Svatos went down last night too? Sakic, Smyth, Stastny, Svatos...ouch. “The Habs have 65 points and are now just three points away from Ottawa for first place in the Northeast Division and the top seed in the Eastern Conference.” – TSN

Love the guy, and when healthy, he's a big help. But we're gonna need him down the stretch and further. But he's going to have to step up and say 'I can't play' or 'I shouldn't play'. Kinda impressive that his age in sub-par shape, he can still put up a point or two by playing a simple game. As long as his line-mates recognize that he can't get back in a hurry to backcheck. Looking forward to the game today. The Ranger game that is, at least first. MTL and NYR are both hot teams right now. Once again...a big test to see if the team has the mindset to play a 60min game. I HATE AFTERNOON GAMES. Staal – right on, on shanny. Love the guy, and when healthy, he’s a big help. But we’re gonna need him down the stretch and further.

When I first saw that knee on knee hit I thought he blew his knee out. I have a feeling that Dawes’s knee must have gotten worse after the game and that is why they called up callahan.

He looks like a skating spasm, there is little to no jump, he barely makes an effort probably because he hurts so much. I give him credit he just wants to help. Don't get me wrong a healthy Shanny is a big lift just like a producing Jagr is a big lift. But he needs to sit for a few Shanahan is running on E.
