They have done NOTHING since wearing the Ranger blues ... Rangers are spending way too much time in their own end... Play Malik with Rosival as Rosival plays better with Malik ... I'd play Orr, Moore and even Hollweg in place of Sjostrom .. at least get some intimidation going ... If the Rangers lose this series you can say they lost it at the trade deadline ... Backman and Sjostrom have hurt the Rangers ... the 4rth line chemistry is gone .. they have provided no offense ... Backman is a total disaster in his own zone ... SAM:

I think people will change their tune in a season or 2. give the guy a freaking break already... to all the Tyutin, bashers why don't you rip Valli, he didn't have a good game either LOL Brandon I agree with you, Tyutin is young and defensemen take time to mature, not every defenseman is a Staal or Girardi.

Good play and bad play is infectious. Second to Staal, he's been the most consistent defensive player on our team all season. Perhaps he hasn't put together 2 of his best performances to date in this series, but if you think he should be out of the lineup, you should consult your dealer about the kind of dope he's pushing you. It's comical how you can even point the finger to him. Collectively, we played sloppy uninspired puck. From Dawes to Tuytin, to our top guns... you win as a team, you lose at a team. In games we win, no one points out who had a bad game... is it because no one did? No. It's because its not as important when the collective team effort produces a win. Bad performances go under the radar in a win... its a team sport... you blame the team, not the player. Also, what is with you guys getting on Tyutin?

I'd project we're well below .500 on Sunday games this year. I remember going through a stretch in the middle of the season when we lost back-to-back-to-back Sunday games, won one, then lost another. We did lose to the Devils on a Sunday last series. Does someone have the capabilities to pull numbers like that? I'm dying to know... maybe we're just not a Sunday team. Just adding a little extra perspective to a conversation that has gotten highly repetitive. Either way, keep up the positivity. LGR I’d love to see the Rangers “Sunday” stat.

Of course your building is full! Bunch of bandwagoners. Even when the Rangers were bad, MSG brought the noise and atmosphere. I have distinct memories of the early 2000's when I first got my season tix of sitting in the blues and rooting for such awful players as Sandy McCarthy (you know you're bad when THIS GUY is constantly the biggest threat on the ice), Rich Pilon, Radek Dvorak, etc. We stick with our boys through the toughest times. They certainly can't say that in Pittsburgh. Good call Graves…I love when fans get on their high horse when their team is playing well. Of course your building is full! Bunch of bandwagoners.

Sather already resigned him at an inflated rate. I wouldn't move him. He's still young, so there's plenty of time to get him back on track. tomg, Tyutin’s trade value is somewhat diminished now.

Once Jagr was traded the dark dank mellon arena was competely empty once Sissy Crybaby dove into Maria's crotch and became a Penguin you idiots became fans again. The booing of Jagr who carried the Pens to the playoffs year after year after Maria retired is ridiculous. Btw Pens fans Maria won jack before the Pens traded for Francis and brought Jagr over from the Czechslovakia. I love it Pens fans getting on Rangers fans.
