OK. Better late than never. Here’s your game thread.
What you need to know: Redden is de-prucha’d and Gilroy is in the lineup. Up front, Boyle has the dreaded undisclosed injury—and we all know how painful that can be, depending on what undisclosed part of the body is undisclosed injured—so Ales Kotalik also gets de-prucha’d too. Lundqvist in goal.
This is a game the Rangers ought to be able to win. But if they don’t, don’t let it spoil your Winter Solstice. Or tomorrow’s Festivus Eve.
See youse during the game.
(ps, CR9, your boys are 2-0 since we went with this style header … you know, since you were keeping track of the other headers’ records).

It’s go time!
2nd!
right on ilb-meister!!
7 on the dot Carp! Now that’s perfection…maybe it’s a sign for tonight!
will Redden get goal #2 tonight? lol. i feel funny even typing that
Has there been a Staal vs Staal game where they HAVEN’T shown the video of them playing as kids?
Q: Will Redden hit the first Carolina players that comes near him on his first shift?
A: Not a chance in hell.
nyrguy, no, these broadcasters have an obsession with nhl players who had strong forearms as children
Just so you know, Erik Cole Bobblehead Night is on Wednesday night NOT tonight. Sorry for any disappointment this might cause.
I’d say- same plan: we are playing the low confidence team without #1 goalie- rubber at the net, make them take penalties. It’s not about Wade, btw, it’s all about points.
I won’t be able to see the game until later, so I’ll tty spoilers later.
we look aggressive
Ranger909 – Passive is Death
Carp
Got me again!!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?
No voros…SAD!!!
My carped post form last thread:
I agree wit jonny on redden.
Quintal was atleast physical and I remember when he fought cairns when we played the fishies and then they were yelling at each other and you kinda felt one of them was going to go over the glass of the penalty box to get at the other one.
Malakov was physical at times. I remember when he dropped horton I think from the panthers in a fight and after the game mess said, he didn’t fight a lot but that was because most guys didn’t want to fight him.
schneider I liked when he was here, I remember him beating alfie from the sens and leaving him bloodied!
Man we need some physical guys on the back end!!
I hope they bury rozy in hartford or send him to omsk!!
Time to finish work and watch the dvr’d rangers later!
LGR!!
that was all from rozy losing the puck in the corner.
lisins gna get one tonight. hes flying
>rangers getting out played by the worst team in the leagues 4th line
right there is everything that is wrong with Redden. little, non-physical Matt Cullen bodied him off the puck easily in the corner. bad
Real good pace to the game so far. Very entertaining.
yo yo yo wassup boneheads. Redden is gonna have a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge game!
good stickcheck by Rozsival on Ruutu in front of ournet to stop a chance for them, cant believe gaborik didnt jsut fire that as soon as he got it
Canes are probably the worst team I’ve seen all year. they are slow and old. I mean, c’mon, Aaron Ward?? if Rangers can’t beat this slow, over the hill bunch, then demotions are justified.
First period fight between Bryan McCabe and Mike Richards in the Panthers-Flyers game. Hmm, wonder what that could’ve been about…
Redden lifted a dumb bell yesterday. He feels vigorous.
Why the fugg is Dublowski on the 1st line ???? What has this greedy geek done to play on the top line. Artie should be there, not him.
I’ll never understand this carp.
BTW, that’s a whole lot of sniffing by Dredden.
we’re so bush-league … watch A. Ward score on us …
That’s two bad giveaways by Gilly. Sangs and Ilkka shouldn’t get to comfy down in Hartford
perimeter shots
kotalik havin a good period, playing well
Rosival screwing up on the offensive blue line
Whats new?
rosy more aggressive. just wrestled that guy to the ice
That may have been the most exciting scoreless period of the season for the Rangers
When the he’ll is M Staal gonna crush EStaal ? It seems like every time they play they hardly look at each other.
i hope McCabe murdered him
there is no such thing as an easy game in the NHL, this team is the worst in the league points wise but they are not pathetic, cam ward is a real solid goalie, staal, ruutu.. theyve had injuries.. quit the bitching about not scoring yet
Where is everyone tonight?
Orr, what strategy do you use on the PP…Overload, Shooting or Umbrella? Or do you just screw around until u score lol?
This team has won three in a row I think they said. They are like the Rangers sometimes good sometimes not.
NYR
Lol i just screw around. I should mess around with strategies though
I hope McCabe fared better than in this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMWLFca67ng
Orr
Agree with you on Dubinsky. Not sure why this guys always seems to find himself on the first line. He flat out doesn’t produce.
I hope he proves me wrong.
everyone gets all over rozsival if he loses the puck.. like he is the only guy that lost the puck that period, but never want him credit for his good plays, like the play on Ruutu and the nice intercept in the neutral zone… the last 2 weeks he has played much better hockey youre all just lookin for a scapegoat
Maloney was looking at pics of Eva Amurri. Ha
he lost the puck once i think. otherwise looking solid.
Haha Nasty, he probably reads the blog since Carp told him aboot it. He’s listening to me !!! Dave, go with Megan Fox !!!! You’ll be pitching tents so badly you’ll be glad you’re on radio !!!
exactly, playin much more physical too especially behind the net and on the boards
hehe, saw that 1 coming
Sutter should have been called for picking del zotto, but Girardi has to be on that side of the net..
Nice gaborik goal
gabbbbbyyyy
HAHA SAW THAT 1 COMING!!!??
HAHA
LMAO this is the best goal horn in the NHL !!! I heard Adam sandler and chewbacca !!!
Go Gabby !!
1. Hank went down way too fast.
2. Avery HAS to just hit Samsanov there.
The puck always seems to find the great scorers. 1-1.
its been so often the hank let a goal in a in the same minute Gaborik score…its always gabby scorin those goals..
Girardi havin problems with exactly everything thus far?
Hank fell and couldn’t get up.
Dubinsky is feeling the holiday spirit with all his giveaways.
Outplayed by the worst team in the league.
I can’t wait till this games over so I can play some Club hockey.
Back to the same old thing in their own end. Banging it around and running around.
panthers 2- 0 flyers:)
60th!!!
Great penality killing, so far so good.
redden hasnt responded much if at all. he hastn shown me anything
Redden looks drunk.
Sloppy play.
how long does redden get before he’s prucha’d again if he doesnt pick it up?
This looks like a midnight pick up game.
Yea same old Redden, no heart, horrible passes. He really doesn’t care. Send him down for good.
18.1? thats almost 7.7. c’mon dru!!
Pretty entertaining game so far…I don’t think Carolina is playing that well so it’d be nice to see us get a regulation win tonight
69 posts through 2 periods…man what’s going on around here?? lol I guess it’s the holiday season
Wow, Nate Thompson just scored a goal. There was even a goalie trying to stop his shot this time.
I think Girardi has really picked up his game lately…although I think he loves the whole “lets kneel down right at the corner of the net while the guy is behind the net” play
Redden almost put it in his own net, it looked like. He’s playing good enough to make Torts and Sather happy. They will find someone else to bench next game.
Yo Ranger , its Online team play , its when ya use yer character online in the community or Club . OTP is what its called. I have around 730 goals so far , sweet. Help having a legend card or yer superstar card.
Gaborik scores again , gotta love it…even more is the amount of games he has played. He is my vote for the league MVP.
Sather is in the house … he saw first hand what Redden is capable of doing…make huge blunders, Redden will be gone.
Oh Gaborik Oh Gaborik how lovely are your passes.
I usually do not post during the game…I need to watch the game and I hate missing goals. I may dart in the room and post Gabrik scoresssssssssssssssssss!!!! Or something like that but thats it!!
Greg, i’m down with that. just get me on ur team. we’ll light it up.
Maloney is now looking at Olivia Munn and taking pictures of the computer screen with his blackberry, for the flight back. Ha. Good for you Dave, good for you!
Same here Greg! But usually when I come back I have to scroll down alot to post alot and by the time I’m done intermission is over lol
AH Rangers Flyers is on MSG 2 that’s terrible
I am a Ranger fan through and through, but I have to say as much as I hate the Devils, I admire there Team concept,and discipline. I mean… there spanking the Pens right now.
NASTY
You’ve already mentioned 2 things I’ve done today.
Thats a nice goal Wow!
Aboot fuggin time.
Dubi Dudi does! 2-1!
dubi. wheres sally at?
now THAT was nifty
When the hell did they stop calling that interference? Jeez.
christensen with 2 scoring chances and he barely gets ice time.
Lol, Brashit is such a moron.
Thank you Rutuu.
Does Staal get a pass for not whaling on his brother for running Henrik over there?
Why won’t Gabory lift the puck? This is the second time he’s tried sliding the puck on the ice.
DZ is an offensive monster
These referees are calling nothing tonight.
Debs reallys are handing it to Pisburgh. I hope Martina Brodiva doesn’t get the shutout
this is out of context with the game but this is hilarious. from THN.
“Maybe we should pretend every team kicked our dog or something like that before the game – I’m an animal advocate by the way – but it seems like when teams show us up we come back the next time and play a good hard game and get the best of them.”
– Blues right winger David Backes on getting motivated.
Gabby goes five hole.
wow, rosy got the stick, made the play. nice
Rozy has been good.
Jordan staal got hit in the face with the puck. left the game
Ice win
Nice’
dang. whip out the sewing kit, cause we are on a tear.
Real good game, great third period.
Wahoo 3 in a row!
It seems like the defense now is playing just like they did when we started 7-1. Coincidence? I think not!
Ya know, looking at the schedule…it seems like it’s possible for us to win 18 in a row..
Just kidding!!
But the schedule is not all too difficult
Heave-ho! We’ll take it. Break out the Clutch Cake.
We are the championssssss my friendss!!! ~~~~~~~~
Quiet on here during/after a win, no?
LW3H…very quiet
Everyone must be holiday shopping lol
Higgins is looking better. He should start scoring soon.
People only wanna voice thier displeasures. Guys like…umm maybe I wont mention any names …but they hate when the Rangers win and love to come on here when they lose.
I love it …......WHHOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How did I end up writing “Gabory”? i suppose that’s what happens when watching TV and posting in bed.
Florida, Islanders…No reason we can’t make this a 5 game win streak…and I know it’s early, but the game against Florida is a big game considering where they sit in the standings together
Wow is MSG’s poll question bias or what? lol Sorry Marc Staal isn’t more talented than Eric
See , Gaborik and Hank is ALL you need. A pumped up Prospal and a hard working Cally sure helps. Defense did fine …our team is on a RoLLL!!!!!!
HIRE SATHER!!! Oh yeah , he already has the job , hahahaa.
Marc Staal Vs Eric Staal .
The winner is MARC STAAL.
Marc played a great game defensively and out scored his brother. Well done!!!
Well nobody else is here so I guess I’ll go do some other stuff lol, watch I leave and everyone comes. I’ll be back later
Dont goo NYRguy!! Im here!!!! Im sombody!!!!
HAHA , naw im ouuta heresky toosky!! Gotta go to a buddy palace.

At least fatass can do it against the other team I hate.
ye do us a favor chico and STFU
this is the funniest place on the internet. i piss my pants everytime i read this stuff. the personalities on here are awesome. we need to have a huge bonehead gathering soon.
crap….record…
wow, even Chris Drury and Glen Sather can’t be bothered to make an appearance after a solid win.
See I checked back just to see if I was right about everyone coming back after I left and I was!
909 u are correct. idk y but i saw a whole bunch of serious stuff bein posted and all of a sudden i see 60th!!!! stuff just craxcked me up for a minute. but yes im twisted bigtime
mike, maybe you shouldnt wear pants. then you wouldnt have anything to piss in. then again, you’d have to rip up the carpets and sit on some bounty paper towels. bad images!!
Hey Carp
I think once this poll question runs its course, we try to get the first unanimous poll result! The question used would be:
“Is Donald Brashear useless?”
-Yes
-No
nyrguy- i cant be here when the games on cuz my internet is slow. so unless the games on versus i usually dont post during games until between p[eriods or after.
i’m not drunk but i’m just as trippy man. i had some clutcherade earlier. its like 5 hour energy but clutchier
Mike
I’m the same way but not because of internet…I just am focused too much to take my eyes away from the tv lol I usually come back in intermission
yea just imagineif martina did this against us at the garden. wed be having riots right now
haha 909. im high on life most of the time.
Hey, you guys went nuts.
Sheesh, we couldn’t even break 200. We need to take it up a notch for sure.
yea usually when i go take a leak or get a brew they score. almost all the time. i missed gabbys goal and staals. dubys goal i was just getting back from takin a wiz
can’t u just see drury advertising clutcherade. “its good for that clutch factor that really gets you going” then he smiles and a tooth shines and u see the twinkle in his eye. then he says “ur holidays will never be ruined. 7.7 million dollar a year salary, sold separately”
im blitzed ilb. i need a ride home! night everyone
I really do love this place
oh. i forgot the winking and half smile part
mike. ur already home. damn ur drunk!
id like to know whos behind the “clutch” posts and sather wrapups. funny stuff
ilb2001 , WAY TO GO MAN!!!! Ya took “first”...better late then never.
Mike …don’t drink and drive…i mean drink N type …you could regret thing you sayyyyy.
YO Ranger..well do community, my team is full of idiots , haha well not all of ‘em…
im home? oh yea, good morning guys!!
My car is runnning…c-cold still out here. When I get back Mike will be PASSED OUT!!!
mike, i thought u did it. Orr is potentially behind it but i think beer me and kaspar(MIA) are close 2nds. NYRGUY needs to share the love. 158!!!! MIKE
i could use a clutch wrapup right about now. cant end a gamenight without it!!its tradition here now. anyway, happy holidays everyone. hope u all have a safe time and have fun. were not gonna let this 3 game winning streak brighten our holidays!!
Greg, Mike doesnt pass out. he goes clutch, only to return with not as great a trip as expected. how trivial.
Mike , CCCP is usually the guy behind all that stuff. He quik on the draw. Him being “first” alot , proves that he is super quik.
60th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!lol
Mike, I got to say your posts are nice and sharp when you are drunk.
oh its ok greg. im 60th. i got it under control bro
CCCP is hilarious then. everythings b’seder
merci bookoo ilb
Carps certainly going to have an interesting read later lol

Maybe everyone is here but not interrupting this ridiculousness lol
Greg, thats what Redden said!!
greg!! taco bell sound so damn good right now. i got the beer munchies man!! its all the way cross town and its probably closed but i wanna get some meximelts and double decker supremes!
i should call them/. maybe they have the 2 am thing still goin on
Speaking of Taco Bell…
During that MLB All Star Game in SF when Ichiro hit that HR…behind the plate was a Taco Bell logo all game long and my friends and I were wasted on Soco (gross I know) and all we wanted was Taco Bell… Well we got there and it was closed…worst night of my life
NYRguy, this is sacred ground reserved for the drunks and the just plain crazy’s, until someone brave enough, fast enough, clutch enough breaks up the party…. wheres drury at?
i think im just gonna put on a good movie for falling asleep to. i think i’ll pop blade runner inthe dbd player. that movies weird and makes me dream of electric sheep
Maybe all of the beer I had during the game is why I’m here…really weird how only the drunk have turned out tonight…
This thread is sofa king weird tonight.
You guys don’t seem ready to handle three-game winning streaks.
another victory, this must be our Christmas bonus for stickin with them!!! 3 in a row, and who cares if they were ugly, pretty, awesome or squeakers, a win is a win and the points still count!!!
Grabby, i cracked up at the ‘60th’ post also! Just about everyone here is freakin hilarious!
ilb, have ya heard from Mako outside of the email he sent us last night?
Mike
Put on Requiem For A Dream…movies sick when your drunk lol
