Hi all!
Lobster, try justin.tv
That may work, A few ppl I know use it for different things…I don’t know if I’m lucky to get Versus here or not…thanks Dolan (I think)
Working overtime at Magic Pan. A Mandlebaum has always rolled the Crepes.

LOL
Probably an exaggeration, and I can say this because I’m not in that position, but if I were a teacher or professor, the highest grade I’d give to a Boston fan student would be a C. I’d mark down from a C if things were wrong or not to my liking.
Thanks MAKO been crazy busy lately!
ATDHE stream is working, although when the first thing I saw when I clicked the link was Michelletti and Benniati, it almost made me wish it wasn’t.
http://atdhe.net/9656/watch-washington-capitals-vs-new-york-rangers
Hey Kids! God we need a victory!!!
damn the feed on Justin.tv is horrible, any other options? for some reason i cant get it on channel surfing tonight.
Hi Linda!
All of the lovely ladies are here tonight :)
Beth
Busy is good :)
Thanks Chuck Woolery, that looks so much better.
I think we should have a Beninati drinking game… anytime he says some stupid made up term drink… wait actually I have to work tomorrow nevermind
Thx, MAKO
It’s Go Time!!!!!!
WOWOWOWOW GABBY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DONT GO THERE!!! HAHAHHA
HOLY FREAKIN SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABALABADINGDONG!!!!!!!!!!!
Score!!!!!!!!
Gabbo.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Joe M. is doing this game, lol
Hi Mako!!!! Beth, if we played that game, we’d all be drunk after the first 3 minutes!!!!!!!!!! Imagin the posting that’d be going on!!!!!
good start… shut down OV boys and keep the goals coming
horrid day, week, 2months at work….maybe i should just drink a bottle of port every night!
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!!! KEEP IT ROCKIN
WTF is wrong with the picture…does anyone see how ridiculous this broadcast is??
HENRIK!!! HENRIK!!!!
what’s it look like for you NYRGuy?? Our’s is dark but we’re unsure if it’s the new tv or the channel
NYRGuy
It looks really grainy right?
versus looks great for me. where are you watchin NYRguy, online??
It’s just blurry…HD is supposed to be clear, but yeah I guess it is dark also.
Yeah Mako…grainy, exactly the word I was looking for lol
Linda…I’m watching on Versus
where’s charmin?
It actually is nice to have a Ranger voice in there for a change on national TV
aaah ya big show offs with your HD TV’s !
nasty avery back?! trending, I love it
Yeah the picture is really bad… at least we get the game lol BOOOOOOO HD!
Nice job Redden…lookin good
great read by Redden!!! that would have been a 2 on OHHHHH Shhhh!
NY Power Play!
Let’s Go Rangers
too bad its michelobetti’s voice! :-)
sorry NYRguy, thought you might have been watching online, sometimes that’s just brutal!
is old pillowhands in the lineup tonight?
good start so far. need a pp goal to keep them down
MAKO the closeups are perfectly clear…I mean Versus is usually poor quality but nothing like this. I didn’t even know Gabbo’s shot went in lol
why do they slow down when they go on the pp??
Fankist will get another goal tonight!
come on boys!!!
the footsteps of tom poti, is that supposed to be intimidating? PPPPPPoti, I still say his name with disgust
Yep Linda…they are all in, I don’t think they have anyone up to be a healthy scratch. Whether he plays remains to be seen lol
when was the last time a Ranger had 14 goals 21 games into the season? ( duh it was probably jagr)
i just realized that my previous comment did go through… so then ill say it AGAIN!!
GAAABBBAAA GAAAABBBBAAAA GAAABBBBAAAA!!
NYRGuy
Exactly. Yeah they really need to work on their quality, its been a while now. You would think this would have been fixed by now. Since, you know, its a national tv station =/
something is definitely amiss with the Versus broadcast… commercials show up just fine… eh what else is new Versus is the devil and sucks
CORRECTION
wtf who cares about seau?? this is a freakin hockey game damnit, who cares about dumb versus shows while we should be seeing the game… THIS IS BUSH LEAGUE
Remains to be seen?
That’s a funeral.
wheres my girl christine simpson??? they got a new blondie girl doin interviews
effin rozy
Is it just me or does Micheletti seem alot more pro-Ranger than normal?
Linda
Miami Pimp would approve of your message LOL
“Poti’s footsteps” are second on the scale of intimidation, right between “Semin’s fists” and “Drury’s anger”.
give it time NYRGuy…he’ll revert. I’m waiting to see if he crushes on MDZ!
Good kill so far
I would hope so Mako.. i dont toss his saying around much, but I think he’d be proud! It seemed the perfect time!
LMAO LW3H! classic!!! Drury’s anger….does that qualify as an oxymoron?
“and Lundqvist will squeeze”
that doesnt even sound right.
her profile is scaring the hell outta me!!!!!!!
this is too stressfull. (opens 22 oz hiney)
Is Poti still on our payroll?
VOROS a tough customer!!!!!!!
Come on Voros
Linda, your comment was right on … it is bush-league!
MARRY ME NOW
voros!!!!!!!!!!! thats my boy!!
WOWOWOWO VOROS BLOODIED HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Voros draws blood!
I was wondering why they were breaking it up…now I know why, jeez
Did he just say…
no…
VOROS FIRST WIN AS A RANGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Doncha freakin love it. He threw one punch that if he connected, the guy woulda been out cold!
Matt Bradley: “Am I cut?”
damn!!! Voros WON the fight!!
That was for Sean. Is that his first win?
Voros actually beat the hell outta someone???!!!
Hi guys and girls. Great start to the game!
LGR!!!
Voros?!!!!
Holy smokes, not only did Voros win the fight but he busted the cap dude wide open.
Wow… talk about a pounding!
Voros held his own, Bradley took the worst of that scrap.
I am honored Miami!!!
I am loving this game right now! Being able to see it at school on Versus. The announcers from both teams. The Avery factor. Voros exploding some guy’s face. Gaborik scoring early.
When was the last time Joe worked for Versus?
Damn his hand looked really bad… Hope its not broken. Jeeeze did anyone else see it?
Usually you can kind of guess what Beninati is talking about, but what the hell does “lay the baseboard” mean?
Linda, where the hell you been, girl?
And where’s Sally?
Voros gets HUGE bonus points for that!!! I can’t believe how excited I am over that freakin fight!!!
WOW NYRGuy
Did the picture just get worse or is it me?
That was like Malik’s shootout goal!!!
The picture is terrible MAKO
Carp, work is slowly killing me!! The kids did good the past few days with MustaKrakish!!!!
versus is voros country!!
great comparison Staal! That fights gonna go on my facebook as soon as its available!
MAKO, I think it’s the same…you’re eyes just might be confused since it just saw Voros win a fight.
stupid penalties. thanks sean
Avery call
lay the baseboard? maybe he thought he was on extreme makeover home edition
They should be absolutely juiced right now.
How does Green jumping away from Avery count as a penalty?
Caps are coming on here, rangers need another penalty kill. This is where they miss Drury and Dubinsky.
I don’t get it…it’s clear as day zoomed in, is it just a terrible camera?
Carp
i think Sally finished college…got married and moved to Yuma! lol
Grabby, if Aves is gonna play the way we all want him to, we gotta take the penalties. I like him with a chip on his shoulder much better than neutered!
Jeez what a shot
BULLET!
Yup, asking for trouble
Man that was an freaking missile !!!!!!!!
*a
yea linda. thank him for the goal against too
I can only dream the day the rangers get the best player in the league.
Sally hasn’t been the same since CCCP kissed her that one night
shootout hero….....who missed an immensely wide open net earlier in the game
grabby, even at even strength there was noone gonna stop that blast
TOMG…Jagr was up there those couple years…and Gabby aint to shabby
Redden shoulders a beagle!!!!!!! omg, if i was a hockeyplayer and my last name was beagle, i’d freakin change it
Damn, is it me or is the HD feed totally fouled up?
I’ve cablevision in central NJ channel 719, and it’s like someone is playing with a DVR. Speed up, slow down, choppy video.
I hate having to watch in low def on 408!
Linda
i havent been the same since that day too… sigh.
we’d have to purposely tank a few seasons in a row and hope the drafts were strong so we’d get that kinda guy.
Alright, I’ll take the 1-1, but only if we can get the lead back before the intermission! That was quite a shot.
i dont care if he agitates, but stop the penalties!! against the top team in our conference. he hasnt scored, he hasnt done much of anything except play a good game the other day. thats it. one good game. now he started out fine. but i just hate all the penalties. it kills us everytime
NYRGuy,
Jagr at the end of his career and Gabby ain’t to shabby but there not OV.
tom
if Sather is still around… rest assured that he’ll try to get AO when he’s 40 LOL
Matt…it’s bad for everyone…it’s still better than low def though
what the hell…..a commercial on the blog????? scared the living poop outta me
Caps block a lot of shots
higgins has been all over the place
I can’t even see the puck on any shots lol…it’s like when they put the Rangers on MSG2 to show that D-League team on MSG
“Capitals heave ho and away they go through center.” LOL
michael del zotto ‘corralls’... beth, thats drinkable
and what is with avery and otthers passing to the front of the net to the opposing team? hot potato. ive noticed that a few times lately
spider, i was just gonna type that… this guys middle name must be LAME
man can we ever recieve a pass??
Mako,
OMG, please, if Sather is still GM of the Rangers when OV is 40 than were in trouble.
his return has been profitable…oh man, joe ‘lame platitudes’ beninati.
LOL what a weenie LOL
You guys are scaring me- can I have a “Fire Sather”?
LMAO Tom
He’ll probably do that cryo-life thing where his head will be in a jar on Messier’s desk LOL
I’m fortunate, I get Versus, picture is clear. It almost seems like a ranger broadcast with Joe Micheletti as the analyst.
carp, i can’t imagine sather being gm for another 15 years,that’d just be too cruel
but VOROS won a fight!!!!!!!!! This day will be remembered forever!
bad period. 15-5 shots?? unacceptable. and its not from missing dru and duby. they just dont pas well, recieve passes well, and are still takin way too many penalties. sather better get this team a center who can make plays.
linda- i know hank wasnt stoppin that shot at even strength, but it sure helps when youre players arent in the box.
Why can’t the Rangers ever complete a pass?
FIRE SATHER!!!!!!!!!! the missing link
lmao her press on eyelashes need to be curled a bit more
i agree on that shot differential. what the hell? gotta be more crisp and precise with the passing. they kinda died after 6 minutes in
TOMG…it’s clear? What service do you have? Maybe just Cablevision is just F’d up…how ironic considering who owns it
So these clowns aren’t going to show the Gaborik goal at intermission? I woke up late from my nap and wanna see it!
i know i’m in the minority, but i absolutely HATE elvis’ version of blue christmas
My humble opinion is after watching the islanders, devs and flyers the rangers are not a good team. I can understand why the hockey analyst pick the rangers to finish 10th. The rangers defense is soft, so is there wingers. The only bright spot on the rangers is The king, gabby and prospal. This could be a long season. I still will watch this team to the end. I bleed ranger blue since I’ve been 11.
Thanks Linda- I needed that! And a Fire Sather to you too.
NYRGuy,
you got it, I have cablevision. One thing I must say is I never had a problem getting local teams on cable here on eastern long island.
versus is voros country baby!! its allclear on the midwestern front. ohhhh y gosh!! i cant wait not to see that new rugby movie with matt damon!!!
I like Porky Pig’s version of Blue Christmas.
Holy hell….missed a lovely paid-for dinner cause of work, hoofed to a local pub to chill and see start of game, and guess what i belatedly learned….versus and direct tv have divorced. So I missed all the good stuff! argh!
LGR. sigh. seems everyone’s day was fargin war (name that flick).....
Thank goodness for home. And thanks for the monopoly Dolans.
The SD Versus has been clear for me all game in PA on Service Electric.
just a quick comment or two.
glad we got the first goal.
too bad that they tied it.
btw,
iffy calls on Rozy….just looked as if he fell because he got tripped up by the net…....whatever happened to home field advantage…...oh yeah, we’ve got Aves.
roller coaster of a time with us looking pretty damn good one moment and fairly incompetent the next.
finally
WAS THAT VOROS OR DID SOMEONE PUT SOMETHING IN MY DRINK?!?!?
I was surprised at the shot differential… we’re lucky it’s only 1-1
Linda – If that’s that awful song that’s been playing in that commercial so often, then I don’t like it either!
Weird that some of us have clear and some don’t…oh well
Olga, that has to become our official greeting!
it’s bad on comcast too
tomg- agree. at least we’ll get a good pick this year. i cant see us makin the playoffs at this rate. but if a good pick comes out of it, then maybe we can be a good contending team in a year or 2.
it is spider, and to think, it’s not even THANKSGIVING yet and they’ve been playing it for about 2 weeks now!!
I guess Buffalo doesnt miss the clutchness that is Chris Drury.
btw, Linda, that chick’s hair is worse than some of Torts’ ties.
beth, indeed. this is gonna be an interesting one.
Versus HD has been clear all game on Time Warner in OH
I’ll have a b-b-b-blue eh, Christmas w-w-without you…
NYRGuy
I have time warner…
Laurel, she’s kinda got the pasty Mary Kay face going on, her profile is scary, she’s aqua netted Motley Crue style, and the false eyelashes are awesome!!!
Grabachev in IA,
I hear ya, unfortunately I don’t have allot of confidence that the Sather regime can actually pick a winner in the draft.
hahahahaha oh man, Gabby sounded SO disinterested on that Versus commercial
I saw a new Gap holiday commercial last night which was pretty good, singing and dancing about trees. I doubt that’s gonna show up on the hockey broadcast. It can truly be called a holiday commercial, since they mention Christmas, Hannukah, and Kwanzaa.
definitely need someone other than gaborik to score this period or game. please!!! cally? avery? boyle? lisin? drury?? lol
ooooh baybeeeeeeeeeee yoooooooooooooou you got what i neeeeeeeeeeeeeed!!!!!!
In the begining of the season second or third line players for the Ranger scored but these days it all of Prospal and Gaborik, so Rangers went downhill and playing inconsistent..As I said before the season, the Rangers lacking another guy to score regularly .
I am here at the game. My daughter is soooooo pumped up. Thank you Ag for the tix. Let’s go boys. 5 shots on goal is not going to get it done.
Torts said before the game that key is they need to have more puck possesion but that exactly changed second part of the period..offense just stopped…
spider, after seeing that commercial 5 times in an hour span, i can do without it also! Whats up with rushin Christmas?? My friend actually put her tree up on Friday!!!
mako- how dare you!! u know with drury theyd have 2!! count em, 2!!1 more faceoff wins and a goal added to their total stats!! come on, its called INTANGIBLES AND “LITTLE THINGS” just like the capn said himself!!!
At least we don’t have to see the Radio City Christmas Special commercial every five minutes on MSG.
I already hate Xmas. Who wrote the song “Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow”?
I’d like to kill that f**ker…
Caps defense doesn’t look very sharp. They could be had. C’mon boys
Weird…more reason to just hate Versus. We gotta come out in the 2nd like they did in the 1st…can’t be on pace to give up 45 shots to the Caps and expect to win…Hank or no Hank
linda and grab you are not over in hockeystreams ?
Beni, please, stfup…
that’s awesome Nasty! I hope someone buys her a lil trinket! When i took my daughter to her very first game, a guy in the row ahead of us went and got her a little Rangers toy! I thought that was amazing!
Olga Folkyerself ,
somehow I get a feeling you don’t like snow, just a hunch.
PAP with the post ping LOL
Somehow, the Rangers authored a win over the Capitals in the second week of October.
its on the big TV tonight Koala!
Voros vs Bradley
http://www.hockey-fights.com/FightLog/details.php?id=7636
Beni, please, shut up..
“sizzles one wide!!”
Hello to all the Nastys!
Linda, she needs to be told it’s not 1982 anymore.
from last post (catching up): MikeV, I’m so with you. Discussed that with my very nice barkeep tonight, who sadly is a fishstick fan. I undertipped, of course :)
Carp, next time you’re in the office, I’m so gonna typo you!
back to the tube….
great work morg!!!!!!!!!
“He sprinkled it up toward center.” ????
if del zotto was getting acquainted with anyone in my living room, i’d be ecstatic!!!
niiiiiiiiiiice glove save hank!
Nasty
Enjoy the game!!!
Hank with the glove. Can someone hit Green?
this is embvarrassing play. cant pass for crap!! cmon guys!!
aaaw man Laurel, you’re an undertipper????
She’s got looks that kill, doesnt she laurel??
has lisin done anything at all lately??
yeah linda i understand..over there, no Rangersfan in chat nothing is going on there, but its easier and quicker to chat as to post…focus on game
Lisa, hit the damn net!
Hmmmm PAP almost outskated Green. He needs to work on his skating eh?
varlaaaaaaaaaahmov with a pad. that doesnt sound good
A new topic was started and no one told me?
Did you see that from Higgins..eh you guys have to score other than Gabby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thats true koala… wish this was more like a chat room! that’d be outstanding!
They’re trying that big offensive line, Kotalik with Fankist and Gaborik.
Somebody posted on this blog how PAP is “nothing more than a AHL player”. I couldn’t agree more. If this is what Sather has as a backup the rangers are in trouble.
Hey Mako, we did good with that nickname, didnt we?
ok, there lookin better now. need a goal soon though.
OK, I definitely do not need the word frisky in my hockey broadcast.
“Guys get friendly and frisky in front” WTF? LOL
PP, here we go
JBytes-
You lag, you drag…
LMAO That’s just wrong! hopefully MDZ is not getting friskly acquainted with a caps player ‘in your living rooms’
LOL yes we did Linda.
man we suck lol. come on!!
COME ON BOYS!!!!
i’m sorry, rozi should never see pp time
VOROS!!! VOROS!!! VOROS!!!!
and after typing that, rozi made a decent play!
Bracketed??? Carajo!
great minds mako, great minds
Linda
yeah he left the ice
I see joe M. is using Sam Rosen’s line “Skating very well”, jeez. I think the lead announcer is getting frisky with Joe M.
ovie is not from this planet.
nothing says romance like chicken tenders~ i loved that commercial! the best was when he said ‘i’d like it 100 percent off’!!!
Has Rozi been taking skating lessons from Voros?
lmao @ he left the ice!!!! we need to give rozi a nickname to inspire him!
took too long to set up powerplay only last 25 seconds..
Man, we need someone to put the puck in net other than gabby
Linda, that was a joke. I actually take after my dad and am a ridiculous overtipper most times.
morg, thanks!
the rest of you, I’ve love to stay and play, but I am wiped. gonna go watch then probably collapse. besides, I gotta be fresh for my warren debut! Hey TR, e-mail me at work and we’ll work out the details. LGR and all that other stuff you’ve all been saying.
Carp, really looking forward to tomorrow’s column
I can only wish one day before I go I can watch the rangers pass the puck like the caps are doing on the power play.
Indeed Linda ;)
Grabby
I know. The guy is just amazing.
laurel,i knew you were kidding!! sometimes when the man and i go out, the staff fights over who gets to serve us because i’m a huge overtipper ( the man is ah ah ‘thrifty’)
thank god they didnt score on that pp. my nerves are shot already
Every time he says “latches on”, I think of breastfeeding..
maybe Voros can show Charmin how to throw a punch… lmao, my own joke made me laugh
tomg- are u really tomb?
imagine if they had semin??? a little semin goes a longggg wayyyyy
I would like to eat some sweet, but nothing in house..
shame :)
aaaaaaaw snoopys back on the ice
thanks for the pressure, Laurel.
LMAO Charmin. Had Puddin’ even had a shift?
How’d we ever score one? Oh yeah Gaborik
“Every time he says “latches on”, I think of breastfeeding..”
Very interesting ilb, do go on….
ohhh kots!! soo close
wow that was kinda questionable eh?
Jay Beagle belongs on sisterblog. Good shot, thick arms!
He said “sin bin”. heh.
of course Avery gets mugged in front of the net and all the other rangers stand around and watch. What a bunch of wusses.
i swear i dont think his name has been vocalized
damn that dudes got freakin red lips! circus freak!
pap sucks. get him on the 4th line. put avery on top line.
sheesh just realized its Joe2 in the booth J2 and R2, the apocalypse is upon us~
thats what i was talkin about tomg…glad you noticed it too
Grabachev in IA November 17th, 2009 at 8:22 pm
tomg- are u really tomb?
Sorry, no, I’m not tomb.
Somebody else made a comment about that, maybe I should change my name if people are getting me confused with tomb.
CCCP- what’s that on Varlamov’s helmet?
green fell….call a penalty on avery
This 2nd period is lasting forever… C’mon boys put one in the net!
that was me a few weeks ago tomg, i’ll own up to it!
another penalty. this team is fugged
They keep asking for it
how can a team be so mentally unprepared that it keeps taking penalties again and again and again?!?!?!?!?
oh once again stupid penalty against the Rangers..
better watch out on OV
hey jpg, my bad, didnt notice ya til now
this parade to the penalty box, on versus… brought to you by professional bull riding and the lame nhl under gary vampman
tomg- never. now i know youre tomg and not tomb. i just thought u mightve pressed the g on your keyboard by accident. it is very similar though. maybe put a space in there
Mike, think positive, bro
Folks, rangers are pitiful, lets face reality. Sather is the worst GM in the nhl.
lidnA!! u funny girl!!
no call there????????
What the heck was the penalty? Who’s even in the box?
OT: Colton Orr is on a roll.
http://www.hockey-fights.com/fightlog/details.php?id=7638
holy crap mako, they never mentioned!
DAMNIT TO HELL AND BACK AGAIN!!!!!!!!!
Oh, no
Linda
i like your new name
still kind of shocked by it all. Voros wins fight?!?!?
sheesh! caps score again. pathetic!
GD GIRARDI!!!!!!
im done. night guys
Sather is the worst GM in the nhl.
Amen. Fire Sather!
thanks grabby, ya know i like to make ya laugh when possible
The islanders are better than the rangers. The reality for me is until Dolan sells the rangers to a new owner, Dolan will keep this fossil named Sather forever and we as ranger fans will suffer forever.
FIRE SATHER!!!!!!!!!!!
yea jpg, even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then!!!
“im done. night guys”
Grabachev- one goal and you fall apart? Tough it out, stringbean…
oooh man, goal comes out of nothing , caps didnt put too much pressure on the powerplay, just simply stupid..
Seriously if they are going to waste bench space on Puddin’ then scratch him and play Grachev!!!!!!!
been saying that for years tomg. i’ll love this team forever, but have resigned myself to the fact that we are in purgatory as long as the asshat known as dolan owns the team
that was the 3rd post tonight
“The islanders are better than the rangers.”
What in Holy Hell? You lost me there daffodil…
my view (and hope) is that sather is setting himself up for the good ol’ retirement day. with Messier around, i would think that he’s planning on smoking his last cigar at MSG.
hopefully, it’s sooner rather than later but then again
be careful of what you ask for….
im not done. im back
wade redden having a bounce back year… that just made me giggle
Torts tie looks better tonight. Good move, Torts, keep it simple. If it doesn’t go with black shoes, don’t wear it.
exactly jpg… just cuz one was a great player does NOT necessarily mean they’ll be great in the front office
Other than MDZ & Gilroy. Redden is their best errr non rookie D. Man, I never thought I’d say that LOL Good for him.
this team is like one of those ED commercials. gabby is the viagra of the team. the rest are just limp richards. man we were better last year with a washed up naslund and a sissy zherdev leading the team
So why is it that since Voros opened up Bradley’s face have we been the clearly worse team in this game? It doesn’t make sense.
tomg, always so quick to bring the strong negative, the whole season is over talk
here we are 21 games in, and Redden has not sucked. I’m with you, good for him, better for us. He’s almost dependable!
Ilb, i have the same impression about Torts tie…
it was horrible couple of days ago :)
Linda, I love when you use that word.
They look terrible…they really don’t know how to clear out the front of the net…They really need that punch you in the mouth, knock you on your behind defenseman
izzy- the isles are better than us sadly. they will pass us in th standings soon too. were 4th in the conference now. tied with the isles.
This team is no threat to anyone unless gabby and prospal r on the ice
I’m glad you stayed for that gem Grabachev!
But folks, only 11 shots after two periods, that says everything and when luck is not on your side after hitting three posts..come on now
Linda, do you know that Redden already earned $1.7 mil? Just a reminder.
which word Carp????
Just for the record. If anybody follows this blog. I’ve been posting on here for a few years now. Last year and this year there is a poster who waits until the game is over, his name is “STUART”. He is from California. His deal is he will post a negative personal belligerent comment against anybody who speaks negative towards the rangers. I have only one thing to say to Stuart, maybe it’s the air in California but if you think this team is on the right track than you don’t know much about building a team. Sather rebuilds this team every year instead of building the team for the future to be good for years, also dishes out terrible contracts and with a salary cap in place is a death wish in building a winning team, it’s the same M.O. Sather has been doing since he got here. If you don’t see that Stuart than you are not to smart. Yes, the rangers have a few good young players. The word is few and the players are nothing to get extremely excited about.
Callahan doesn’t seem as noticeable this year…something’s going on with this team, they just don’t seem…right…can’t really explain it lol
Linda, I think he means giggle
he’s earned brashears check in 21 games!! GO WADE GO!!!
Rangers play like my status..:)
nothing left in the tank as well nothing left in the fridge:)
u make your own luck. higgins,avery,cally,duby,lisin,boyle(offensively),drury(all over),staal,girardi,rozy,and brash are all having horrible seasons. when 2-3 guys are the only ones scoringyoure never gonna be successful. imagine where wed be w/out gabby. its effin pathetic for the ny rangers. wed be the worst team in the league without gabby and hank. 2 players doesnt make a team
i can not wait to buy aaron voros a molson.
“izzy- the isles are better than us sadly. they will pass us in the standings soon too. were 4th in the conference now. tied with the isles.”
(Hands over ears) I can’t hear you! La la la la la la la la la la la…
Grabachev, I agree, at least in this situation. Sometimes posts are hit because the goalie is in perfect position.
Really? The Avalanche are picked by none of the clowns as the biggest turnaround? OK. Kings aren’t as improved as them.
Wanted to comment on the Shanahan retirement. It’s too bad he had to go out so quietly like this, but he had a good career and can hopefully contribute the game of hockey in his post-playing career, whether it is with coaching or working for the NHL as a whole.
Four fights through only half of the Sens-Leafs game.
I KNEW you’d all see it my way eventually…
FIRE SATHER!
Yeah , we’ll see who finishes here.
hihi its missing something now in kitchen..
hope that the cook isn´t askin´me tomorrow:)
Washinton crapitcrap are going Dooown!!
i doubt we can even tie this game. caps will get the next one, and we’ll get 1 late. too late. have we seen this scenario before? torts isnt lookin too good right now. i have to say im not at all impressed with him. i thought hed be great here. and yes its still early, but in an offensive forechecking style, you gotta score. there scoring as much or less than when renny was here!!! and giving up way more goals. when does torts become accountable for this? he got a huge star in gabby. hes got hank. hes had better players than when renny was here besides jagr.
Olga Folkyerself ,
dude, I’ve been saying that on this blog for a few years now, that’s obvious.
Are you all getting tired of Tom Renney score? Except it usually was 2:1 us..
The Islanders aren’t going anywhere…once DP comes back, they’ll tank.
olga should have fired him long time ago..
never understand the fact that you guys from the media dont put that kind of pressure on him to produce how it would be the case over here in Europe :)
Too busy watching to post on here ..but I’ll be back!!!
RANGERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
Come on Higgins , geeeeeze!!!!
get rid of naslund and gomez too
tonights game, on versiiiiiiiiiiissssssss
Joes- quiet, please, the both of you
haha tr and izzy!. yea nyr guy. somebody besides gabby or prospal have to step up. how bout our alternate captain?
I still have hope based on the Rangers being able to apply pressure at certain points during this game. They have had a lot of shots blocked and good chances miss down low.
grab you are on the spot..I see the same outcome in this game ….
take a poll here. anyone think we will score even 1 more? yay or nay?
So, our most physical defenceman right now is The Kid?
guess Sather is going to pretend that drury or dubinsky will make this team any better
Its still really early in the season guys. Have faith that they will turn it around. We were all slobbering over them on their 7-1 streak…. Its the same team. They’ll work their way out of it. If LQ wasnt playing well or Gabby….then I would be really worried.
Voros is coming out. Caps are dead
MAKO DID YOU SEE IT????????????
OMG Puddin’ is on the ice!
Nay.
I say we’re good for one more goal, at least.
Brashear played sparingly? I was sure he was scratched
i was like, HOLY CARP, charmin sighting!
yea koala. we will prob get 1 more only after wash scores the 3rd. and goooo brash!! earning that money baby
MAKO that is true…but remember how last season started? Lol
Someone on NY will score.
Avery drew a call!
PP? For knocking down Avery? Are the refs drunk??
Mako,
this current team will not make the playoffs. Sather will make changes to this roster. This roster will look different after the trading deadline so anything is possible.
Thats our Avery
cmon guys!!! get a freaKIN FORECHGECK!!
Oh yeah, it’s definitely the bad Avery, good for us, of course.
I SAY NAY.
NYRGuy
yeah I know… mostly all new players. New coach. Avery isnt playing the same… well not on that last play LOL But there are some guys who arent playing to their full potential and they really need to get back to the basics of hockey. They hockey that they started the season with. Their forecheck was something fierce. Dont know where it disappeared to?
Are we getting a 5 on 3!??!?!?
higgins should taken out back and shot. he sucks so bad
there are 4 guys in the lineup tonight that if they were traded tomorrow, i wouldnt miss
Higgins???? Wtf? PP again. OK, now we score
How can a professional miss a wide open net like that?
and yes grabby, higgins is one of em
Come on Rangers. Score on this PP.
get grachev up here. put higgins in the echl. i hate that putz
MAKO…I don’t know where any of their toughness disappeared…even Callahan doesn’t seem to be as noticeable much lately…no scrums, no sticking up for players, poor forecheck…something’s gotta be up
5 on 3 boys. The question is can the rangers convert on a 5 on 3. That’s the question.
LETS GO BOYS!!!!! TIE THIS GAME UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Linda – Oh, there’s got to be more than that! Voros, Higgins, Boyle, Brashear, Parenteau, Rozsival, Redden.
but you know LINDA
in response to Mess probably ascending to GM
and that it may not mean positive results…
i hate to bring up the snakebit idea but sheesh
since ‘94 does much of anything go right in Blueshirt Land?
Savard was viewed as a selfish player who wouldn’t amount to much. look at him Boston.
yes, we had a good surprising year with Jagr after the lockout but it just seems like moments and nothing sustained. you look at someone like Yzerman in Detroit or how we didn’t get Hitchcock who seems to finally have enough around Nash to be making a difference.
at least Avery got us a power play….....
Linda…Rozi, Higgings, Voros and…..
this team is sooo hard to like. theres nothing fun about it anymnore!!! i wanna see goals man. what is this crap???
Have they even talked about the penalty????
Olga, but you are not the same one I like right now ???
hihihihi…
i wasnt even thinking of voros and redden!!!! But yes to higgins, pap, brashear and rozsi!
Only 4 that you wouldnt miss? i have a lot more.
GABBY!!! WOOOOOOOO
gabby!!!!!!
Gabby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT A EFFFFING SHOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gabby~!!!!
THANK GOD GABBY IS ON THIS TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU GOD ALMIGHTY FOR MARIAN GABORIK!
Whooooooooooo
GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
There’s that one goal… :)
Thank god for GABBY!!!
Practically no angle. 2-2!
YAAAAAAABBBBAAA GAAAAABBBBAAAA DOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
our ONLY offensive machine does it again. thanks Gabby!!
Gaborik could probably spin a diamond from string. I don’t know if that makes any sense, but this player is legit awesome! It’s a power play goal!
Told you we score
Told ya guys , nothing to worry about!!!!!! WOHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
I have to give Sather credit where credit is due. Signing Gaborik was a steal. Doesn’t change the fact how Sather has run this team but that was a good signing.
I still say we will not get any points from this game.
voros gets a pass for that great fight FOR ONE NIGHT!! Honestly, there are more, but i wanted to be nice in the spirit of the upcoming season!
gee, from the way that he plays versus his teammates
maybe we should go after Kovalchuk.
apparently, having just 2 offensive players on our team could lead to the nhl goden road!!
Linda – Come to think of it, I would miss the gentle giant Boyle. He’s decent enough on the PK.
thank god for #10. that made me happy
if semin was in this game, i think we mighta heard some bongos after this gathering.
Wow Staal pissed…that’s more like it…now knock someone on their @$$
Grabachev- Double or nothing? I say they get another…
Some effing shot!
Gabby scores almost out of nothing !!!!
When is Torts gonna start triple shifting Gaborik in the 3rd?
Offside.. He is too fast for his own teammates
This is why the NHL makes me want to go crazy. How the hell does Callahan get a penalty when he gets sucker punched in the head for no reason.
NO ON EVERY IN FRONT OF THE NET TO BANG IT HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
boyle doesnt disgust me. he has his moments, needs to get meaner. higgins has been a total disappointment up to now. brashear is just a waste of space.
Redden really looks good.
CRIMENY another tragic give away by Staal
Holy carp this game has gotten good!
did one of ours just get slashed? it looked like someone was clutching their arm
Well look how decided to stop playing all of a sudden
wow i need a tranquilizer badly. im gonna live to be 35 at this rate
yea, lisin got slashed but of course no call.
Yeah someone was Ranger…I was waiting to hear who but they never said anything
probably avery and he’s gettin a penalty for it lol
Geez, I need a drink
Brashear with 3:47 of ice time. Ugh… WASTE OF SPACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dump him in the minors and bring up Grachev!!!!!!!!!
What were they chanting?
Anyone worried that Gabby is getting too much ice time ?
staal is pissin me off bad. someone please tell him to stay next to hank for the rest of the game. hes not allowed to cross his own blueline
mako- yea but higgins has been good forechecking. not scoring but higgins deserves more time and avery too
he’s actually been on the ice that much?????????? i am shocked, i saw him like twice
FRIGGIN BEAST HE IS!!!
i thought it was blatantly obvious. i thought joe would say something but he was probly focusing on beninati’s forearms
lmao grabby, he should have a shock collar and when he passes the blue line it goes off
Efff
well, at least i got the score right. another loss. somebody fire somebody
wow. total buzzkill.
That ain’t right. Busted face people aren’t allowed to score in the same game. Redden back to the bad version. I guess we need the hat trick to hang on.
the lack of boarding called when callahan went down was a nice touch
motherfreakincrapper
damnit…wtf…redden is pissed…he should be freakin pissed
That great ranger defense lets bradley skate in and score, what a joke.
WTF!!! how does Henrik not stop that!?!?!?!!?!?
MAKO
November 17th, 2009 at 9:19 pm
Anyone worried that Gabby is getting too much ice time ?
YES!
freakin glove side. Redden just doesnt have the speed. I feel like gilroy maybe should have hit him instead of swinging his stick.
Voros can never win a fight again.
Now we have to score. You gotta want it…
Voros clearly didn’t hit Bradley hard enough.
No….Gilroy was too weak on him. That would have been a good penalty to take if he would have taken one.
jpg, it looked like he was looking down at the ice
Good ol Redden comes through in the 3rd vs the caps, again!
It’s bad karma
and how many times do we watch redden (or rozy or staal) be unable to keep the puck in the zone???!!?!?
i have watched many many other games and i have NOT seen ANY team have these type of problems on such a consistent basis!
Boooooooo , The croud was sure buzzing ,was.
That one is on Henrik. He didn’t look centered in net.
im out for real this time. bye guys. hope they score 1 but you know they wont. what a downer this team has become. thanks redden you freakin doofus. he needs to be shot to. put him, higgins, cally, and everybody not named gabby. hank cant get it doen either
safe is death?
you know what the difference is..for Caps someone scoring outside of Ovechkin…
Mako gilroy does anything there he will gete a penalty and probably a penalty shot against
thank bettman and his nhl
So does that Voros “one game pass” go out the window now since the guy actually may end up scoring the GWG?
hank is average now. his big surprising start in the league has evened out.
uuuuuuuuuuuuuugh
Hey 22figure8,
I was driving behind you on the LIE last week
hank should play with two blockers.
Don’t hit me with those negative waves, man. Think beautiful thoughts… They’re gonna score.
Speaking of Gilroy. WTF has this guy done, nothing. He stinks defensively and hasn’t shown any great offensive skills. I can understand why he wasn’t drafted.
actually i think Henrik should have a shock collar that goes off when he refuses to move past the paint and take out some additional room from the goal
AND
it should go off when he leaves the net to “handle” the puck
(and i put handle in quotes not as some double entendre but because rarely do good things happen when he touches the puck)
Gaborik shouldnt have to do this every game in order for us to have a chance to win.
was voros on the ice for that goal? i dont think so, so his pass still stands
If it wasn’t for Hank this team would have lost ALOT more games than it’s won the last few years
Chris
Even so if there was, I dont think it would have been a penalty shot. It would average better if LQ stopped it and the score was still 2 – 2.
Game over folks, not surprised, didn’t think the rangers were going to win this game anyway.
if he would’ve landed that bomb, the guy woulda been out for the game cuz he would’ve caught him squarely on the chin. damnit voros!!!
i know you said earlier this is the same team mako, but damn, the fundamentals have disappeared. it’s almost like watching the Mets!
what are they doing?? just shooting it to the caps??? why??? oh btw im back
The only players worth a damn on this team are Gaborik, Del Zotto, Hank and Prospal
No Linda…but he should’ve hit him harder LOL
Why cant Torts change up the D pair for the first line? I mean never any outlet passes from the D to Prospal or Gabby.
As much as I love that we have Gaborik, I’m really getting sick of not seeing anybody else score.
Come on Rangers. Score with the EN.
NYR, i think that was the hardest shot Voros could’ve mustered!!
Chuck, sticker on my truck?
Did he really just “Child Please”???
guys, we have 20 shots on goal. should that be something to worry about? yea. we suck. end of story.
“Game over folks, not surprised, didn’t think the rangers were going to win this game anyway.”
You’re probably one of those people that leave the rink with 5 minutes left so you can get home ahead of the traffic.
loosing again..frustrating at 3.30 am in the morning..
Ranger fans, the rangers are a one man team, Gaborik. This team will not win consistently when you only have one guy who can score. Three bad contracts, one guy who can score, soft team on the defense and offense, one good goaltender. This is a team that is what it is. This team is a .500 team at best, not making the playoffs but it’s a long season, you never know.
Linda
Yep, that’s what I said. They need to go back to the basics and Staal needs to get his head out of his @$$. They really need to practice passing….
WTF IS GABORIK ON THE BLUE LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lololololol. sooo. 1st or 2nd overall pick??
another loss
Son of a…shoot the damn puck…this team is gonna start to believe that they really do suck…now they gotta dwell on this until Saturday for Florida
I would like to be mad because Del Zotto didnt shoot but hes friggining 19
not the reason they lost
Yeah 22,
small world.
CARP
I know you just changed the poll question, but I think you need to make it “If Gaborik is out…how is the Rangers offense compared to last year…Better…Same…Worse…Oy Vey??”
my fiancee is a bengals fans and he just called beninati a choad! damnit all!!!!!!!! It’s disgusting that a flagship franchise like this is so poor on fundamentals like passing! oy vey, something’s gotta give
Tom G-absolutely correct, a one man team plus Lundqvist.
you guys can say what you want about PA being a career ahler but i see more out of him than i see out of the rest of the lineup besides people named gaborik or prospal
the new york gaboriks, ladies and gentlemen
Olga Folkyerself , if that was directed towards me, no, wrong. I live on eastern LI so I would have to take the train that leaves after 10;00pm so no, I wouldn’t have left, sorry, wrong.
this team is easily 12th-15th place without gaborik. not a single difference-maker besides him.
ok, what the hell is up with boys with girlie haircuts? Do girls actually, truly, honestly like boys that look like girls??? SCARY
Why can’t anyone on this friggin team play defense? An average player like Matt effin Bradley blows them away for the winner after they tie it and get the crows back in. Inexcusable.
*crowd
damit… totally agreeing with koala, not fun at 3.30. It sucks going to sleep after a loss.:-(
that was the icing on a totally crappy day!! but i gotta remember, i still have a job and a roof over my head.
so who are the top ten players in the entry draft this summer?
good night Rangers, good night to everybody..
with only one player able to score you wont win many games in NHL…
linda- so, are you a buzzcut fan?
oh there are plenty of difference makers, the problem is, the difference is for the benefit of the opposition!
Orr has disappeared ever since i put that link up. haha.
record without drury is 1-3
yes i’m counting calgary
501, Baby!
I blame Voros for this loss. If he dint win a fight then NYR would have gotten a point out of this game.
What the fugg is with Dredden ??? Where’s his god damn cocaine strength ? Unbelievable.
This team has been really pathetic. If Seaman played tonight, the score would have been 5-2 or 6-2.
;-) izzy
these flippy bangs on boys, with their lil highlights and what not…very scary. Dont like pretty boys
anything of interest on versiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis? i had to turn it off before the remote nestled in the middle of the screen
torts is an idiot. renny was better. im serious. i dont care who bashes me for this. but when you have a guy like gabby. a goalie like hank, and 2 offensive d men to play the pp, as well as kotalik who is a pp guy, thers just no excuse for this crap. hes an idiot. he started his idiocy in washington for game 5. hes a loudmouth a hole who thinks hes a tuff guy by yelling at giannone and brooks. we went from dorky nerd who got superwedgies and hung from his locker in school tom renny, to the big dumbass bully who picked on tom in high school for coaches. and in between we have slatipuss. they guy has the biggest payroll in the nhl, he can buy out rozy, redden whoever. and he never can put a team together. hes burnt. get him outta here. get torts ouuta here too. get keenan back for carps sake. and when did hank become average? maybe i get too emotional but why cant we ever have a good team??? what is it about ny? wheres cally been? hes a 2.5 million dollar ortmeyer
Amen Linda!
It would have been sweeter if they won. But hey, the lost against a great team and matched them really well in the 3rd… They need to work on their D coverage. Man do they need a really tough as nails Dman. Doesnt have to be flashy or score a ton (They have Gilroy & MDZ). But coverage in front of LQ is bad. He’s been screened so much and given up those screened goals. And on the offensive side… gosh someone has to stay PUT in front of that net!!!!!!!!
Seriously they owe Lundqvist a better job.
ORR! did you like the youtube link?
I couldn’t wait to turn versus off!!!!
we made the playoffs last year and this years team is better than last years team. IF we had Gabi last year we would have finished off washington.
this team freakin’ blows. The coaching style sucks – it does not fit this team at all. Outside of Prospal and Gabby there no players at all. That was my last game of the season, I am not watching this crap anymore, just like last season was the last Ranger game I went to. Broadway Punch Muffins, with idiot coach in the lead. I wonder how long is it going to take for people to start doubting the coaching style… Torts coaching style would fit only certain teams in NHL, like Caps, Pens, Hawks and maybe Flyers. No matter who signs with Rangers in off season this team will blow!
So we have to sit on this for four days? Lovely.
Another loss all right. This time they deserved to lose. They stunk. They lost almost every faceoff, man are they missing Drury and Dubi. The penalty kill is not very good anymore. it’s amazing how bad they are without these two guys, I mean all Drury did was stand around and make big bucks, you wouldn’t think they would miss him at all. I wonder when Callihan is going to break out a score a goal. This team right now is a one trick pony.
ilb, the sad thing is, it bugs us more than it does them.
Anybody with positive comments? Please? I know, it’s tough.
Maybe ORR about this video?
Sigh. I adore you all, but I can’t even comment. A perfect ending to a perfect day. OY! Time to go…maybe I can find another re-run of the Wizard :)
Heads, lots of down time til next game. Let’s all remember what we’ve agreed to here over the past couple days. It’s fun when that works!
A demain mes amis (that’s just busting my Russian friends) Ta!
Kirill – Good! Do me a favor and stay off this blog, too. Go knit something…
Grabachev in IA,
I actually blame Sather, why, because sather (biggest dope in hockey) hires a coach with a system where the Rangers don’t have the personnel to run Tort’s system. The coach’s system won’t work with this group of players. That’s why stall has declined, just naming a few.
Oh yea did I see Voros on the powerplay
linda- i hear that. i got a job. i got a good family. i have heartburn. and i have th rangers. hey. if youre gonna suck, suck it up all year. get us a 1st overall. tank slats. tank. if it will get you fired, tank. if it will get torts fired, do it.,tank. tank just for the sake of tanking. you have no rep anymore and you are a joke. olga, i have turned to the light side of the shwarz!!! i have been enlightened. safe is death!!!! lmfao!!! somewhere, sathers smelly belly button lint is stuck in one of the lockerroom showers. thank god im not the janitor at msg
siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh! glen DO SOMETHING BESIDES taking care of your oral fixation with that cigar! put on your freakin big boy pants and GET A HARD HITTING CREASE CLEARING defenseman and a number one center, or someone who can win a faceoff!!!
Ilb- I agree. There’s a lot of sissy Mary’s posting after the game. They played a good team and lost in the third period with an EN goal.
Suck it up. Move on.
I agree, I had nothing against Olga Folkyerself but maybe he/she should stick to figure skating.
somewhere, sathers smelly belly button lint is stuck in one of the lockerroom showers. thank god im not the janitor at msg
**********************************
roflmfaopimp! thats one sick mental image!
what did i miss??? bad feelings with tomg and olga? w
P.S. maybe not the funniest, but darn good for a quote of the week:
Linda: oh there are plenty of difference makers, the problem is, the difference is for the benefit of the opposition!
oh yeah, I’m leaving. really, wick, greg and all.
And fyi, new posters, sorry you’re sick of team (don’t believe it!) welcome to our crazy world and enjoyed the posts.
we’ve known we needed that type of d man for years, and I know they dont grow on trees, but there’s gotta be SOMEONE out there somewhere who can fill that role.
HAHAHAHAH ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww belly lint. Probably smells like cigars & Jameson LOL
RIGHT ON IZZY!!! You tell em!
thanks for the consideration Laurel! the check is in the mail
The Sens scored two on the powerplay, that would not have happened if Drury and Dubi were playing. They are playing without their two best centers. They are losing most of the faceoffs that is a big reason they are losing the games. Plus the fact that they are not getting many shots, and the only guy who can score is Gaborik.
Well, yeah. Fire Sather. It sounds good but it won’t happen. I don’t think I can wait for him to drop dead.
Keep smoking those stogys Glen, They’re good for you.
Linda, I’m with you….I missed something too apparently, but it’s been a looooong day. Can’t…keep…up…must…go…amuse yourselves. See ya tomorrow for post game notes.
Olga – Thanks! I think my comments make too much sense! As far as knitting goes I don’t think it is wise to think that everyone around shares your hobbies…
The only thing that will save this season is:
1. Shut Drury down for the year, recoup his capspace.
2. Bury Rozsival. Now.
3. Trade for Vincent Lecavalier. He wants out of Tampa and we’ll give them what they want for him.
If this doesn’t happen, may as well tank the season.
Izzy… we might as well suck it up and move on, because we are going to see a lot more of the same.
Linda, Dubi is our # 1 center according to Glen. Glen, probly has a lint cave. lint statues of himself, lint clothes, lint throne, lint cigar. icky stuff like that.
cigars and Jameson!!! history channel just did a thing on whiskey/bourbon the other night, thats funny.
they gotta snap outta this funk. they played so well to start the season, we know its in there, its just hibernating now. someones gotta bring it back out!
http://www.petitiononline.com/SaveNYR/petition.html
Olga Folkyerself ,
AMEN brother, I’ve been saying this for many years.
STINK STINK STINK STINK STINK….....
gilroy has been poor. hes not really that good offensively. idk does he really deserve his salary from what weve seen? no. hes done jack. all hype. dz has been great, not really recently, but hes a 19 yr old and playing better than staal and girardi. so, torts needs to get these guys to be more reserved. they cant score, so by cutting down on penalties and neutral zone turnovers and bad plays (staal), we will have a better chance to win. i really dont care if we score 1 goal a game anymore as long as we get wins. safe is death. yea, his slogan should be stupid is death.
Glen LINTMAN YETI Sather…he’s more of an albatross then the bad contracts because at least those contracts will expire!!! Glen’s like a roach, the only thing that’ll still survive on this planet after nukes! What they don’t tell ya about December 2012 is that the next picture, for January 2013 is a huge picture of slatipuss rex and his stogie
Yes DZ is a good draft pick. I can see why Gilroy wasn’t drafted, he is not a good defensemen and I haven’t seen anything that tells me he is good offensively.
linda- i mentioned the belly lint. not pimp. get it right girl!!! lol. i think the rangers will coem backa nd win again this season. what do u guys think?
Linda,
The funny thing is the world will end on my birthday according to the bible, dec 21, 2012.
http://www.petitiononline.com/SaveNYR/petition.html
you know you want to sign it
im drunk. i’ll be happy again in the mornin. sry for the bad vibes. im in iowa guys. please understand.
Tough loss – we didn’t do much on the PP except for the last goal by Gaborik.
Lisin is doing nothing on the first line. Non-first line players need to start scoring or this season is OVER.
I know the last goal was a great shot, but I kind of feel like Hank is having a down year – he’s not really standing on his head – I guess I’m spoiled from his superb play in years past.
Also, would someone please hit Ovechkin? He plays hard and likes to throw the body. Other than Staal, I don’t see our guys plastering him / laying him out.
Ah, what a frustrating night. Lotta problems for Torts to solve.
btw, did you know that Sather is the final boss in the new Call of Duty and he can’t be killed? They didn’t even program in a credits sequence, your Xbox blows up if you kill him.
Captain Clutch, where are you?
The funny thing is the world will end on my birthday according to the bible, dec 21, 2012.
Who are you? Nostradumbass?
haha Linda. I could totally picture Glen at the end of Team America instead of Kim Jong Il.
EWW, the lint stuff is gonna give me bad dreams.
Here’s the truth, and I’ll repeat this in the spring to prove me right. This is all part of being “a Ranger”....Why I love this blog/sport/team…you’re all done! season’s over! well, I’ll see you tomorrow and the next day and the next….through summer, just like this year and last season.
Sorry all, but you you know, once a Ranger always a Ranger, and therefore maybe doomed!
Stanley is clawing at me. Pissed at loss. Now I bid you farewell.
Izzy Mandlebaum ,
That’s a good question. The problem though is I don’t know who I am.
hey Rick
you don’t cover hockey all that much so just go for it
and ask Torts or the players themselves
why they play with no heart?
why they can’t check an opponent rather than give a halfhearted stick check?
why Gabby is the only player who can put the puck in the net?
why can’t Henrik move past the paint in order to take out more room from the shooter?
just a few that have been on my mind.
and at the very least, get video of this stuff because if you ask Torts some of these questions it’ll look like my dad and uncles arguing during a bocce game.
grabby, that pimp i mentioned meant pissin in my pants lmao!!!!!
do ya think lisin is still feeling the effects of the instep injury? you’re totally right in saying non first line players need to start scoring. oh to have some balanced scoring along with the dman!
Check your shorts. Maybe your mother sewed your name in the back.
Izzy Mandlebaum ,
OK, take it easy there dude, no need to get personnel. I know the rangers lost but don’t take it out on me and no need to bring my mother in this conversation.
Izzy- I laughed so hard beer shot out my nose.
Boudreau really out coached Torts tonight. The Sens simple bottled the Rangers up they had very little room to do much. The Rangers took to many penaltys, and they lost to many faceoffs. Torts is complaining about taking to many penaltys every game, but they continue to do it every game. Another thing Torts is allways on about is having and holding on to the puck. I wonder when they are going to start the puck possion thing, soon I hope.
Olga, then my work here is done…
linda- gotcha homeslice. if i was 1 and u were 2. wed be 5. thats how crazy and cool we are
YES YES a MILLION TIMES YES jpg. i HATE HATE HATE the constant stick checking when a good old fashioned plastering of the body against the boards is warranted.
Hank should absolutely NEVER handle the puck, and keep working on the high glove side. I hope when dubi comes back, he can add some scoring, we really need it, and need him to come through, he’s got that bigass contract to live up to now. Cally leads the league in hits, and i respect the hell outta that, but we need him to pick up the scoring a bit. Gabby needs someone to help him shoulder the load.
and watching rick and torts kibbitz would be astounding!
Linda, the check goes from Izzy to me now…..sorry, I spit out of my nose too! ARGH, goodbye!
You have to PAY to get this type of comedy in here!!!!
LMAO!!!!
Seriously, remember him?
hmmm i thought izzy was joking with that line about the shorts and the name sewing. i didnt think it was a personal thing, just a joke
grabby is now known as FI and i’ll be VE
lmao i’m all confused! i thought olga was a dude!
Ladies and Gents!!! Izzy Mandelbaum!!!
And he was joking LOL
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcFSOnumgZA&feature=player_embedded
grabby, we’d be a complete unit of 5 Renney would be proud!
Linda
Read Olga’s name carefully LOL
well, if izzy was talkin about toms mom that aint cool. set up a date and time, and settle it like men. id like to see who would “semin “each other better
tomg- You the kind of person I would use as a blueprint to build an idiot.
Henrik is so good playing goal on the goal line. He would be unbeatable if someone would teach him how to come out a bit and cut off some of the angle. He gets beat easy up high because he playes so far in his net. He has to be driving the goaltending coach nuts.
Im sick and tired of Avery and his antics…I just dont want to see him taking shots at goalie’s…he is a bum…no one sticks up for him…he is a cancer…
Sorry…. Im half in the bag too LOL All Im doing is laughing….
STELLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAA
STELLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
Mako, a names just a name…are you really a shark??? ;-)
or maybe its time for a new goaltending coach?
We got murdered on faceoffs tonight. Man, they couldn’t even pull out a point for my daughter. Nothing worse than the ride home on the train after a loss.
Hey I wouldn’t mako fun of your name…
linda- were more thn just 5. hell, were more than a 10. we go to 11
Lets all get drunk. Together. I’ll bartend. I’m Russian, I know my alcohol. Then wake up in the morning and start rooting for a new team. Suggestions?
C’mon folks, we will be here tomorrow, all saying that it’s just 21 games, and they could’ve sucked at the end of the season as opposed to now and blah, blah, blah. And rightfully so.
Olga are you building idiots? any money in that?
nasty, despite the loss, did your lil girl enjoy being there
yea, its time for some wine…
Olga Folkyerself ,
like your name isn’t stupid. Sounds like go F@@k yourself, dopey dude.
Olga,
I wasnt, I think yours is priceless ;)
WoW! ok, after having to watch the online feed on some fuzzy assed link, I’ve come to a few conclusions (they are not new conclusions, I just get to repeat them now)!
Hank is gun shy, PERIOD!!! When guys get close to him he let’s goals in (twice tonight)! He looks like the slap shot goalie!!!
Cally, offencively speaking, is overrated! Avery has way better puck skills than cally does and should be getting more minutes on the PP and even strength.
Until we get a couple of hard hitting physical crease clearing d men on this team (there are NONE in the system, so please don’t say call up a d man), we will get nowhere in the playoffs and hank will still have problems with opposing players scoring in close.
Get over the voros crap, that guy is the least of our problems. He always shows heart! which is more than most of our players do!
Lastly, players that need to go…rozy, higgy, girardi (you have to give to get), lisin, pap, valli, and dubi (see girardi…unless he gets his EDGE back to his game, then keep him).
hockeymon, theres seems to be money in building a team of idiots ;-) And dont everyone get all pissy, i’m just jokin!
boys!! girls!!! shims!!! everyone settle down, have a drink and some chocolate and a deep breathe!
tomg,
Sincerely,
Olga Folkyerself
Agreed Linda
“we will get nowhere in the playoffs”
playoffs, playoffs, are you kidding me, you’re talking about playoffs
Yeah, she had a blast, and anyone who came across her path tonight had an immediate smile on their face, because she is absolutely the cutest and most adorable thing on the planet. She was bummed that they lost. She knows hockey, pretty damn well for a 4 year old. Having her with me took the sting out of the loss a bit, but man, they couldn’t even hold out for a point. Bummer.
i swear, sometimes when i watch south park i think i am gonna burn in hell, then i think about some of the things i’ve said and…..... oy vey!
olga, why u keep messin wit tom? what did he say to u?
i’m glad she had a blast! its always fun to watch the kids faces at games, how they just beam! miss those days! did ya have someone take a pic of the two of ya?
good one mora!
Sure did. Mrs. Nasty came too.
thats great nasty! family outing, too bad they couldnt pull off the win for ya!
mako, you have mail!
Night, heads. Tomorrow will be better. And day after. Will love them again by the afternoon. And so on til Saturday. So how’s Florida doing this days?
You guys are all hilarious after losses. Just wanted to point that out.
Linda, your last few comments you left out my favorite term for the GM.
Nasty, sorry I missed you and Mrs. Nasty and little Nasty.
I’ve said it before, I think hank looked the best his first season. He challenged shooters, always cut off angles out of the net and always would put rebounds in the corners instead of out in front of the net!
Nasty
Hope the family enjoyed the game for what it is worth!
Announcers kept saying how erskine was neutralizing avery after the whistle, so why didn’t torts put brash out there for a few shifts with avery to neutralize erskine? Worst case brash and erskine go off for 5 each and avery gets some shifts while erskine sits in the box!
Got it Linda, you have mail right back =P
thats awesome nasty!! my daughter is almost 4 and she watches games with me online all teh time. whenevr we win, she yells loud and sometimes nwhen we score she gets scared cuz i yell like a maniac. but if we lose, she says” daddy, are u gonna be ok?” you look sad” but when we win, she says” yay daddy you won”!! lol. like its me who determines the game. isnt it awesome being a dad and having a girl who likes hockey like her dad? its so cute and she tries to impress me by saying that she will be a hockey player when she grows up. shes so influenced by me and she is soo like me. shes nothing like her mom,
(that really pisses her mom off too). anyway, glad you and ya daughter had agood time tonight.
lmao @ lil nasty!! she’s probably the ultimate in cuteness!
Rick, YETI??
Carp, the guys are hilarious after wins too.
Hockeymon,
we played against the caps tonight.
Nasty
Hope you all had a great time. AO is just amazing and its always a treat to see him play, especially now they have Gabby … watching them go head to head was great, even though they lost. Plenty more games left in the season :)
Get home safe.
back to you mako!
you guys are the absolute funniest bunch of people anywhere
Mike, that’s cute. It actually pretty awesome being a dad and having a boy who likes hockey too.
Linda, now we know, if Voros wins the fight, we are dead! The good news, he doesn’t do it very often.
new post.
i agree ilb, that experiment should never happen again! damn anomaly!!!
Linda – You’re it ;)
