I'm sure everyone saw the announcement of Cablevision spinning off a new company of MSG, the teams & Radio City. Not included are the MSG Network & the Beacon Theatre. I don't think you need to be Stephen Hawking to expect that new entity will eventually (though I hope it's sooner) up for sale. I've maintained since Cablevision made the purchase that it only wanted the MSG Network which was a cash cow at the time having the Yankees contract, but had to take on the other parts (true or not true Carp?). As we all know, the inept Dolans not only managed to lose the Yankees contract & later the Mets, but the Knicks got worse & the Rangers continue running in place on the treadmill of mediocrity, all while being not particularly fan friendly. But, if they do sell MSG & its teams, it means we'll be emancipated from one Jim Dolan, who remains clearly way over his head. Good news down the road?

Actually, I do like matzoh, just not with my hockey. UK... it's right here in my hockey cookbook, "Add at least 2 TB's of grit to make a great hockey player (more can be added to adjust for flavor)" Doodie…

I take it you don't like Matzoh? “I don’t want a loaf of bread that doesn’t rise, no matter how many other great ingredients it has.”

I take it you don’t like Matzoh?

Sure the kid has talent and can score. But you’re not going to win a Cup with people like him." ------------------------------------- Yes, you are so right! F Zherdev! Because of him I only got 8 million per season! Send him outta here…maybe Sather will throw couple extra dollars my way if he doesn’t have to pay Nik! I am the player you win the Cup with! Oh, Yea… Rozi said he also the player you win the Championships with! We rock! “To Hell with Zherdev. Sure the kid has talent and can score. But you’re not going to win a Cup with people like him.”

He's got some of the ingredients to be a great player. But, and this is a really big but, he hasn't shown the heart, grit, or determination it takes to raise his game to the next level. Over and over this past season, 'Z' would be hit along the boards and I wouldn't see any effort to get back in the play. If the guy took an open ice hit, he'd just lie there on the ice watching the play continue around him. I'd be yelling at the screen "GET UP M#$#@* F(#$@*!!" Think of the effort Callahan, Dubi, or ex-Ranger Prucha, put forth shift after shift, night after night. These players are (still) popular because of the energy and effort they play with. This is NY for cryin' out loud! We don't have time for half ass efforts and excuses. I don't want a loaf of bread that doesn't rise, no matter how many other great ingredients it has. The moment Zherdev's gone this team is better. Zherdev is like a loaf of bread made without yeast.
