It’s go time!
OK, enough about Gaborik’s groin, or whatever it is, or whether he should have played or shouldn’t have played that last game for Slovakia.
Whatever. He’s supposed to come back tonight, and we’ll see if he’s OK or not.
Alex Auld is the scheduled starter in his Rangers debut—if I’m not mistaken he’s the fifth goalie the Rangers will have used in a game this year. He starts against Jose ThreeOrMore and a Capitals team that will give you some, but will take plenty. You recall the last meeting: that 6-5 come-from-ahead loss on Garden ice. Lisin and Voros are prucha’d.
I think a point out of D.C. would be a good point no matter how it happens. No?
See youse during the game.

yay! game in!
Good evening, Sally!
GAME ON!
lol
LETS GO RANGERS!
Dubi already has that “I’m gonna yell at you” look on his face.
hey folks! Won’t be able to catch the whole game tonight.. :( date night going to see Alice in Wonderland later!
Good evening! Was just going to make a point about Gaborik, but am very glad Carp turned the page. He is playing tonight. And, hopefully, no damage done.
LGR. Auld is definitely in net?
So does this mean LQ plays the last 17 games after this one?
Yes Auld is big in net tonight.
Good test for him
Maybe the D will be up to the task a little more than the last game with him in net
GO GO GO!!
I’ll probably fall to sleep in the first intermission with all this drinkin… but what the hell!
LOL RangerSwede, be more like your Norwegian brothers, know when to say when haha

RangerSwede..
You cant have the Olympics because the NHL season is way too long and they have way too many teams to have the time to make in the offseason..another good argument to say what I am saying for years :)
But when you claim i am getting oblivious you are maybe right but truth to be told in the midde between of both is a speaker and above a very little cute koala out of fabric watching all the action with me :):):):)
Flying back home tomorrow, will watch the game later. LGR!!!!!
Good evening again, Carp!
How was the fire Sather rally??
I love the look on Torts’ face when Sam is asking him questions, like “OK, remember not to curse, no F-bombs.”
Which is the best link to follow the rally tomorrow, Carp ?
or CCCP????????
Over/Under on Caps’ goals tonight: 4.5
Would you take the over or under?
Buff
LMAO!
Summer Olympics? LOL
BTW, that is not a bet I just want to see what everyone thinks about the number I made up.
five to 7pm ….
Rangerswede-you confuse me :)
Over/Under on cheap penalties against the Rangers tonight: 2
I’ll take the over.
Over/Under Penalties committed by Capitals that are “conveniently” missed: 2
Push
Gabby playing tonite
ooh i have Caps feed..bäääääääääh
The Crosby lovefest is on NHL Network-little Crosby to Olympic Crosby
CR9, personally I think it is weak to talk about the refs in all sports. Everyone thinks their team gets screwed and it is a bunch of BS. I love when people bring up calls that were bad against their team but never bring up the ones that they got in their favor. It is just a poor excuse in my opinion.
All aboard the pain train!
Adam
I respect your opinion.
Referees can be the difference in the games, not just with NY teams. They insert themselves far too often and are never consistent. The problem with referees is many of the calls are subjective, so it’s based on their discretion.
2 seconds left, Stanley Cup Finals Game 7, the cheapest icing you will ever see. If we had lost that game, I wonder if you’d blame the referees? I blame them even though we were victorious.
For all intents and purposes, they tried to steal away a Stanley Cup!!!!
Totally agree Adam, I got in some discussion with some Red Wings fan on hockeystreams about this…:)
They talked conspiracy !!! What a stupidity !!!!
I think the refs would do their job a little better, only if they were able to wear anything other than those zebra shirts.
Just a thought.
Game starts now at Verizon Center !!!!
It’s kind of funny that anyone on here would dismiss the idea that referees are biased, considering everyone here makes the claim that the referees favor Sydney Crosby and the Pens.
Conspiracy? Not really. Fact? Possibly.
1 fair call from referees!!!!!!!!
Buff
the link i posted in the last thread should be good…
LET’S GO RANGERS! Gavnorik is splaying. :)
thanks cccp, okay tomorrow from 4.30 pm ????
Now I’m annoyed. I get the non-MSG feed virtually all season but now, when I’m desperately hoping for Beninati, I end up with Sam and Joe Mich.
There’s that great NYR PP !!
DelZotto equals shakey
but the better “link” will be if you come to the rally! i find it funny that people b!tch and moan about getting rid of Sather and when time comes to actually make something that counts many people “cant” come…its freaking Sunday!! What else you got to do?
Actually scratch that. Joe Mich: “Chimera is big and strong…”
woooah auld
did Joe just say we have nobody designated as a fighter-type? Is Jody Shelley a natural scorer?
Washington is begging for a goal. Please oblige!
Not a bad start…good forechecking pressure down low but shakey as always on the backend…probably gonna be another high scoring game
CCCP I am sitting in Germany !!!
I need to go to internet
4GEN
He was talking aboot the Craps.
Proving that it’s a waste to have this guy in the lineup. He literally offers nothing. No goon to fight, he’s slow, and he doesn’t score goals. Should have played Voros, so he can bust up Bradly again.
FIRE SATHER!
Auld looks sharp in net…
Redden equals Useless
Buff
that is no excuse! :P
Who’s gonna score on this PP ??
Crosby would have been proud of that dive.
Ahh, Staal, the best of the 4 brothers….NOT
We’re half way to the over/under on cheap penalties.
The stick is in our guy’s chest, and it is holding the stick, but not a hooking.
WOOOOW
No penalty ??? No penalty shot ?????
A makeup noncall.
We know Bill McCreary is not reffing this game, as Bill would have sent our guy to prison for that penalty shot trip.
Auld looking pretty good.
LGR!!!
too soon
Didn’t think Fehr would be the guy that scored, but i knew someone would score.
NYR not making life easy for Auld. Poor guy.
Wow Aulds only been here like a week and he already figured out he’s faster than Rozsival.
Oh and if anyone wants my prediction for this game, I believe Clubber Lang put it best…
CCCP I am sure you guys celebrating a revolution even without me personally :)
And the Rangers have gone into their “throw the puck away” mode.
two giveaways in the o-zone by Gabby already
Make that three, tomb
Caps getting away with a lot of clutching and grabbing.
alot of non calls on the rangers…looked like christensen cally and co were getting their *** kicked in the offensive zone!
They didn’t call anything for NYR because of that missed call.
That should have been a PS for Green.
a stick up in Stall’s chest is not interference? But Avery’s stick up is?
Du-gay is clearly high on some kind of fancy drug.
where is everybody?
rangers look good downlow…just waiting for a bounce or two
...i’m here, just got nothing to say.
me too. or neither.
Washington is not even playing that well, yet we cannot score a stupid goal against Theodore.
Anyone else yawning ever 5 minutes??
This games putting me to sleep.
It’s a snoozer…
I’m here, I’m just saving my comments for my employer…
dubinsky made about four awful plays on that goal, starting with the soft body check when he had a chance to light up Morrisson.
These bad games are making me thirsty.
please SHOOT HIGH on theodore.
Auld might ask to be put back on waivers if this team continues to be so pathetic.
Green looks a bit “stocky”
Season over, kiddies?
Most likely.
Hopefully we get 0 points in the remaining games.
Top 3 pick !
Pruuuuuuuuuuuuuuucha, with his 12 of the season.
Season Over? Hell no! Dolan has a lot more money to make by April.

Thems the rules of the new NHL.
Orr gives Carkner another bullying.
Fire, Fry, Filet, Forget, Flip, Freak Sather! Fright & Fear that he might be running this team for another Forty or Fifty years.
A PP!
If they get shutout by Threeormore, that would actually be funny.
Can we please tank? We’re gonna get swept as the 7 or 8th seed.
I’d rather miss the playoffs than get swept by the Devils.
I’m all about going 0-fer for the rest of the year.
Lottery pick here we come.
Fire Sather rally is tomorrow!!!
I’d rather get a lottery pick. Just f’n look at Pittsburgh, Washington, and Chicago, specifically.
I think Torts is done if no playoffs this year too.
This garbage needs to end already.
Would anybody rather have Gretzky coach this team than Tortorella at this point?
Only the NHL can screw up the momentum of the olympics…I pray for the old NHL to come back…make the rinks larger and purge at least 3 teams starting with Atlanta and both Fla teams…no one in the south cares and it waters down the league. Rangers are a team of individuals. Starts from the top and works its way down. They skate around and have no clue what they are doing…that is coaching or lack of. Torterella does not know the X’s and O’s of hockey…say what you want about Renney but they at the very least had assignments and they worked as a team…The Rangers need “young” blood to come into the front office and behind the bench and I don’t mean Messier… Does anyone think Lou would allow this to happen in NJ. NEVER!!
Did Ovechkin leave his JAM back at the Olympics? No goals in last five games?
This team needs some sort of a change, whether its coaching, staffing, or players… they are just so boring to watch and generate little to no offense game in and game out.
OV has been waiting to face the Rangers, as the start to his 2nd half of the season.
These 2 giggling buffoons, Joe and Sam, are touting Caps fans.
Is there really any such thing as a Capitals fan?
An OV fan, maybe, but certainly not a Caps fan.
Great, Girardi got tripped by an ice chip!
It’s amazing how they’re about to get shut out by a goalie theyve been lighting up since last year’s playoffs.
The whole team stands still while everyone skates around them.
Fire Jim Ramsey!!
He hugged Crosby. Enough said!!!
need to score ASDFJKAEWSFJASDKF
Just think if hank was in net they would be playing worse because they would lean on him to bail them out every sec
>>Fire Jim Ramsey!!
>>He hugged Crosby. Enough said!!!
Ah, Dubinsky must have learned from him then.
Where’s Linda? Did someone throw her out the winda! ;)
Has Jody Foster had a fight since coming here?
now dubi will get benched the whole team should be infact
Oh PUH-LEEZ! We couldn’t score a single goal in 56 minutes and now these talking heads are putting it all on Dubinsky’s head for taking a penalty? Tchiiiiiip!
What are these idiots talking about strategy for. The game is long over.
Of course
wow
Bill McCreary is refereeing this game.
Hmmmmmm….Not suspicious at all, that he called us for 4 penalty minutes in the last 4 minutes of the game, to close the game out.
THANK GOD this lowlife McCreary is retiring after this year, and we no longer have to see his scumbag mustache on his fat disgusting putred face!
That was fun!
Great game by Auld!
Looks like we played better w/o Gabby!
Bruce Boudreau is a Yankees fan, so I’m gettin on the Boudreau bandwagon (it’s large enough to fit me, right?)
1st shutout of the season for Threeormore.
I blame Dubi for the loss, just because i can.
I love America !
Yah, it’s Jose ThreeOrMore, unless it’s against the Rangers.
Not suspicious at all if you’ve got players who repeatedly shown the indiscipline to take offensive zone penalties all year…
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
(DO NOT DISTURB)
Things ain’t so hot across the river either. Well at least we had a fun Olympics together.
I thought they got pretty good goal tending. Not to pick on Avery, but I thought he was a lot smarter with the puck. His play seems to have gone south, along with most of the teams play lately.
Gabby was pretty useless tonight. A lot of offensive zone giveaways, and just didn’t look good enough to play.
He should just sit out the rest of the year. Save yourself for next season. Do your best Yogi Bear, and go into hibernation until September.
Bill McCreary is like the Grim Reaper. Remember him the the Penguins and Buffalo series in seasons’ past? Jesus. Thank god he is retiring.
Avery needs to stop just blindly throwing passes behind him when nobody is in on the rush. Skate with the puck a bit and if you get pinned, you’ll (hopefully) get help.
^throwing passes behind him when he is behind the net facing the boards
mah bad
not much to say about the game…thought we outplayed them for the most part but just couldnt put the puck in the net…take away the 5 on 3 goal and its a 1-0 game
granted we didnt score but thats been a problem all year …gotta know the goalie youre playing against and play to his weaknesses and we didnt shooting everything at his pads
oh well we got tomorrow. goaltender’s duel: Miller vs Lundqvist!
boy, this is depressing.
meh that Pittsburgh loss was depressing. at least ATL is losing by 4 goals.
ANOTHER BIG DAY TOMORROW, BOYS!
Rangers need to win this one. This is a statement game.
Where is Sather’s Wrapup? Or is he still sleeping??
the statement is….turn off the lights, the party is all but over…..add up the points needed from a possible 36 to get to 90 from 66…..good luck…...getting 24 of 36…....
excuse me only 34 points available
new post.
Orr
There was a time long ago ( giving my age away again), when Refs did NOT wear stripes. They wore white sweaters with the NHL crest on them. They were no better then, but there were fewer of them. A ref and 2 linesmen.Bill Chadwick was one of them.And I believe a guy named Leo Gravel.
