Rangers-Flys for the first time this season, at the Arena That Changes Names Every Five Minutes (why can’t debris fall on their heads?). Not much more needs to be said.
Henrik Lundqvist starts in goal (against Sergei Bobrovsky, 6-2-0, 2.39).
Derek Boogaard back in (duh). Todd White and Matt Gilroy are prucha’d. Evgeny Grachev gets his first taste of the rivalry, as does Derek Stepan among others.
Speaking of which, we’ve got a new poll down the right side.
————————————
Our buddy Andrew Gross reports that Chris Drury’s re-broken finger was, indeed, broken in the same spot, and that the captain believes it was re-broken because it was in a weakened state. So much for that coincidence that he broke the same finger in a different spot.
He also reports that Carcillo is skating on a fourth line with ex-Rangers Shelley and Betts. Wonder if Prust might make an appearance on a line with Boogaard—because Carcillo won’t go near Boogaard, but Shelley will.
————————————-
Two unrelated items:
1) Isn’t it nice to not be getting phone calls from all those full-of-carcillo politicians?
2) R.I.P. Sparky Anderson.

All the girlies say I’m pretty fly for a white guy.
RIP Sparky
LMAO Carpy… “in a weakened state”, all i could think of was Ferris Bueller!
Hope Fozzy and LW have a great time at the game!
Finally Booger is getting involved!
Keenan said it right” It’s not learning moment at all!!!”
Since Indians where tying razor clams to their feet, inventing the great game of hockey, there has NEVER been a moment of confusion over whether or not a guy should jump in and fight for the star player.
STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR GIRARDI!!!
BOOGER SMAAASSHH!!!
Are youse watching the pregame? For some reason Boogart seems to skate with much more confidence during the pregame skating
In fairness, Girardi has been GREAT this season, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he jumps Carcillo at some point to redeem himself from last year. . . . .Darren McCarty style!!!
Watching the warmups… Carcillo yapping at Avery… Boogie came over and introduced himself with a shoulder…. him and Carcillo had words. Could be interesting.
Also as an aside… Gross had a link to the 5 fights between Boogie and Shelley. Suffice it to say Shelley has not fared well. Boogie pretty much owns him.
WHOAAA WHOAAA WHOAAA WHOAA !!!
LETS GO RANGERS!!!
I wonder if we’ll see a Dubinsky-Richards flare up? Avery/Hartnell?
i’m getting pumped…. LET’S GO RANGERSSSSSSSSSSS
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!
cwgatti- I’m sure Girardi knows it was a mistake. I wouldn’t be surprised if he tries to redeem himself tonight. He can throw them, btw
OVER/UNDER on fights tonight…. i’m gonna say 4. Any takers??
Will Shelley square off with Boogaard with the stitches over his eye?
Time to shine , ready to get our “groove on”. Lets get this party started!!!!
This game is personal.
Ive waited 6 long months for t his game.
payback time.
“there has NEVER been a moment of confusion over whether or not a guy should jump in and fight for the star player”
When you’re team is battling for a playoff spot, and they need points, and they’re down by a goal in that game, then the confusion is understandable.
Like I’ve said in the past. Gabby deserved that beat down. He was a complete idiot for putting himself in that position. We needed him to play the game, and score goals, not sit in the box, and let agitators get to him, which he did. He was pretty much useless for that game, for most of the end of the season.
Prust fought bad eye and all.
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!
looks like the left the tranquilizers out of Boogaards feedbag
Gaborik was not an idiot. He stuck up for HIS OWN self and that my friend is couragous. He did NOT back down , wont be..pushed around…stand his ground.
Four fights…
Booger vs Shelley
Prust vs Carcillo
Avery vs Carle
Avery vs Hartnell
And we’re going to win 4-2 because we’re on the road. We’re undeniably awesome on the road!
Perhaps, Girardi didn’t jump to our superstar’s rescue because he sees himself as a superstar needing of protection as well?
You’re forgetting Dubinsky VS Richard.
Any goon who fight a star guy (Gaborik) has ZERO class. Hense the name acting like Carsillyo.
Gabby IS an idiot. He was our only goal scorer, and he sat in the box because he was getting pushed around. He’s a dope.
Carcillo not only kicked the sh*t out of him, but he did his job by getting him off the ice.
Didn’t we get shut out in that game too? Epic fail on his part.
within the first 5 minutes of the game Staal will be knocked off the puck behind the net and Hank will have to bail him out with a big save.
I don’t think Dublowsky is going to do anything. He’s going to yell and talk tough, but he’ll just play, which is what he should do.
And I agree, Greg. But, I’d still take Carcillo on NYR. He does his job well, and he’s a tough ugly bastard.
Bull, you talk more aboot Staal than I used to talk aboot Dublowsky.
Yeah as a scorer he was dumb but he was no idiot. He stuck up for himself…He got into it during the heat of the moment. ORR , Thats passion and determinating. Gaborik is no pussy( wussy) and he fought him. Last I heard the IDIOT carsillo had his hand all cut up…whos really the idiot?
There you, let’s go get those bullies, boys!
RANGERS gametime is…NOW!!!
Girardi knew he made a mistake … and don’t forget he jumped Hartnell after a big hit at the Garden later in the season.
LET’S GO RANGERS!!!
Hey everyone happy game night!
is game blacked out on msg for at and t users
LET’s GO RANGERSS!!!! Greg, my bro!!!!! LETS GOOOOOO RANGERS!!
heya beth!
>>...He stuck up for himself…
As he should! Superstar or not, when another man threatens you physically, you stand up for yourself and defend yourself. You’ll earn more respect that way.
anyone have a non-veetle stream?
Girardi has won me over,and I was really down on him last year for his cowardly action. I think we need to move on on this issue.
We have to expect that the Flyer goons will try some kind of dirty hit or cheap shot on a guy like AA or Stepan. This team unlike the others over the past several seasons will take care of business don’t forget about Prust as well.
Time to kill!
That was a nice first shift
Hey Lin!
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!! Nice pass Boyle and nice way to come down Rozi.
Hopefully Artie can keep his head up tonight.
Start with the heavyweights!
Heyas!!
FIGHT numero uno of the night!
Let’s kick some Flyer behind tonight.
round 1!
And welcome to NY, Derek Boogart!
Man-handled him.
Good job Boogeyman. That’s gonna happen again tonight.
I’d give that one to Boogie
here we go
Boogieman hit too much helmet for his fist’s liking.
I love that bell sound at the beginning of that fight.
BOOGAARD BOOGAARD!!!!!!!!
Dumb penalty. If you’re going to take a penalty against Carcillo, just punch him.
JB, don’t forget Fringe ;-)
what’s for dinner tonight?
Knuckle sandwich?
Good kill, boys! Staal looks good so far
Crosscheck right in front of the referee – NO call!
are sam and joe paid for each time they mention boomer and carton?
Uh oh.
Boarding? Is that still in the rule book, firetruckers?
Last thing we need right now is an injured Callahand.
Knuckle sandwiches go right to my thighs.
>>JB, don’t forget Fringe ;-)
Oh, it is November 4th already? Thanks, LinCPB!
Uh no. The robotic smoking guy is back.
these jackwagons are swallowing the whistle in the 1st I see.
I’ll tell you, I don’t remember ever seeing Shelley that timid and careful during the fight
That wasn’t a penalty. The flyer guy turns around and flings Casllahan head first towards the boards. I don’t get it.
that was scary with Callie.
What a cheap punk
Does NJ still play the Mortal Kombat techno song when there’s a fight?
Damn, Cally’s crying. He must be hurt.
>>are sam and joe paid for each time they mention boomer and carton?
Unreal! I’ll never watch/listen because of that constant nagging.
Agree, that wasn’t a penalty, after I looked at it again
Hooking, NO call!
Flyers cover the front of their net well
That was a penalty? WTB?
This officiating is garbage already.
Yeah, but they’ll call that one on Rangers.
Gues it was boarding, but he turned his back
avery like a bull on the puck
Avery has been exceptionally good behind the net this year.
So, Cally gets boarded, essentially- no call. Staal hits Zherdev and is called for hitting from behind? WTB, refs?!
Guess..
>>Flyers cover the front of their net well
I hear they pay the referees well too.
suspect officiating in a Rangers flyers game??? I never thought I’d see the day….
What do you expect? The Refs ARE wearing orange black and white…
Quiet game so far.
wow, they find the boucheriest looking guys to put in commercials these days
lmao hartnell = young randy quaid
most of the games this year have been like this, it appears Bettmen has the officials attention.
These officials make me miss Kerry Fraser.
Didn’t Richards play the point on their PP last year?
Time to put more pressure, boys
LOL! Tripping, no call.
Conspiracy!
Tripping – NO call!
Hartnell looks like a bible salesman now.
Ping!
ooohhhhhhh Prust
So close! In Prust We Trust!
Evgeny Carpiniello
Blair Betts sighting.
Settle down, Boogaard. We got a PP.
Boogart gave Carcillo a little shoulder…someone needs to check his underwear
OH MY GOD!!!! WAS THAT CLASSIC OR WHAT???!!?!? THAT WAS GOLDEN!! HUMPHREY BOOGARD STARING DOWN AUDREY CARCILLO!! ROFLMAO
what are the chances of Boogzilla and carcillo going at it???
Damn, Blowzy is a dope!
We’ve gotta stop being cute in the neutral zone
Moronic pass by slowzival. Stevie Wonder could have seen Giroux standing in the passing lane.
Linda- zip. I doubt Shelley will go for another one
Flyers are dangerous shorthanded. I thought they learned this lesson last year when Richards scored twice on them 5 on3 on one game.
it took me 10 min to find the station on this piece of carcillo radio that Im stuck with!
BRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
great power play…
...FOR ME TO POOP ON
These guys need to start shooting the fuggin puck.
I wouldn’t bank on Boogzilla-Carcillo. Carcillo’s too yellow.
Ryan Callahan=fearless
Nice hit by AA
Artie taking the body?!
that is the first time i’ve heard Frolov’s name tonight
damn. richards planted frolov
Frolov is useless. He’ll be lucky to finish the season with 13 goals.
Hopefully he can show up for the playoffs if this team can actually get there.
EC is trying to avoid being hit… Tell me it’s my imagination, please?
SIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hate it when people say “hundy”
Err, I csn’t stand that Carton!
I love this version of the Rangers…they play passionately, they finish checks…they are cohesive…this is a great tempo game…Frolov is waking up too…strong on the puck…we finally have a team with fire!! GOD BLESS THE RANGERS AND THE BONEHEADS BLOG!! And may we all be blessed with DUBI-Kisses!
Chuck,when they mentioned his stick being held? LOL
Look at EC’s body. If he gets hit, he’ll fall apart, like Legos
So far the refs have missed 4 non calls against the Rangers its such BS. Decent fight by Booger. I hate these dirtbag flyers…GO Rangers.
Not a good period by NYR. Gotta put pucks on the damn net.
Good game so far, same good effort. They need to generate offense. And the PP to start.
Hard fought first period. Its always hard to play against the flyers and the refs. At least we have a pp to start the second.
>>EC is trying to avoid being hit…
He ALWAYS does!
EC’s best period to date…Boyle skating with confidence…i missed the fight tho….Humphrey Boogard win?
well… my mom called and I missed pretty much the whole first period.
Decent first period, but more offense would be in order.
Undercard of Prust v Carcillo in the second, perhaps.
I missed the whole period. reading through the comments it doesn’t seem like we are putting much offensive pressure.
I want to see the fights!
Boogs gotta learn to take the opponents helmet off before unleashing those bombs or he won’t have a hand left at the end of the year.
Shelley is a good fighter but when the guy your fighting is allot bigger and longer arms you pretty much get pounded to the ice which happened in this fight.
I’d like to see a Booger vs Shelley rematch.
I want to see Boogard vs. anyone. I haven’t seen him really pound anyone yet.
Shelley will most likely stay away..He didn’t look that comfortable.
it will be nice to have Gaborik back soon
take an extra week Gaborik. Heal thyself.
Hit the net, boys
wwwwwwwwwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Now that’s a PP!
Dubi was in the perfect spot for that one!
so does dubinsky lead nhl in goals now?
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
YESSS!!! DUBI!!! 8 goals on the season…our new sniper.
DUBI!!!
great shot
Dubi!!!!!
beautiful movement on the PP! DUBI_KISSED!!
Dubi Dubi Du! 1-nil.
I always say they shouldn’t let a penalised team change its penalty killers. We’d see a lot more power play goals.
yaay for Sally’s lil man!
headache—check
sinus pressure—check
confused by the day due to lack of
sleep and working 3 jobs this week
that deals with stuff for today, tomorrow and
two weeks from now—check
Rangers power play goal— i guess things are alright
Frolov can’t find the net and might be just a tad slower than Booger.
well you KNEW the flyers would get a pp after the Rangers scored
Dubi really a top notch third liner now on most teams…(tongue firmly in cheek)...those calling him 3rd liner should admonish themselves with no ice cream for a week!
If Slats moves fast enough, he can get Spezza for Dubi straight
Lol, mao
slats…move fast???
I think Stamkos and Sharp are tied for league lead with 10 or 11.
nice tough play by sauer….aahhhh crap
that was gross… absolutely sick.
Damnnit.
Dublowsky should have been paying attention to Richards.
He was standing alone
SIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hah…flyers would play pennywise as goal song..
Three guys standing there looking at the puck.
crosscheck against callie??? wtb?
boo. oh we got caught looking at the puck there.
orr, dubi’s responsiblity is the point…how can he be at both places?...callie was already low
Good shift ate the goal…they are getting it
Grachev reminds me of a young Macel Hossa. . . . .only not as good.
After the goal, I meant
Must all hockey announcers always use the word “spin-o-rama”?
York?
for anyone who watches other teams play…
i don’t recall as many other teams watching the puck as
much as we do.
thoughts??
FIRE SATHER!
That’s a deep thought, Olga
Martin Brodeur has a bruised ego.
Not as good as Hossa, or Hossa not as good as Grach?
Mao, even so, he should be aware of all players on the ice, and has to cover up for the d-man. You can’t leave a guy like that completely alone.
That was only a bruised elbow for Uncle Daddy? The way he was acting, I thought he’d been shot.
jpg, i think the rangers have been playing very good positionally after the second game debacle. They have many players strong on the puck…best board work in years….they do look a bit timid at times, and then they overcome that with hustle.
Betts!!! Woohooo!! Go Rangers!
Wait….
Bad turnover, MDZ
i think this is the best i’ve seen christensen play…
ahhh…mdz….
damn it. cheaper drury just scored
unlucky..drats!
DZ… jeez.
Sigh
EC with some moves. oh no not Betts.
Betts is dead to me.
Nice GM work there, Glen.
LINDA WANG CHUNG GOT ME!!!!!!!!!!
jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he can’t score a single byfuglien thing with us
and he gets Hank to look like an AHL goalie!!!!!!!!!!!!
shelley threw a puch he better get a penalty too
Team’s falling apart now.
shelley hit Boogie behind the head.
that’s okay cause it’s not us.
LMFAO! I was wondering where ya went!!! beef with broccoli?
Boogaard not so smart there
punch
We need a good kill here
i have a Dream request as well
that the refs aren’t biassed against us
and that we play a little better tonight.
combination #4 with spring roll and a coke!
that was a pat on the butt..what a cheap call
boogaard goes for 2 for tapping.
Shelley deserved the penalty too
wonton, chicken rice, or egg drop?
it makes me sick how biased therefs are
wow
When you have a coach telling you that you that your team is a 1-0 or 2-1 team and your job is to kill penalties and not score, well you tend not to score.
Hank time!
Zherdev is garbage.
ha ha Zherdev gets stoned by the King
There you go, boys. Good shift
see EC pretend to throw a hit…hahaha
Has Del Giveaway seen the ice yet?
Roz!i pass the friggin puck
RoszivaL- O’donnell? Nah..
I can’t believe the Ranger game won out over the Knicks on MSG.
Kerry Fraser—i know what NOT to put on my
Christmas list
Betts is looking like a monster!
I bought a copy of Kerry Fraser’s book, it’s in Braille.
did OPG shoot on LQ
OMG Blair Betts is killing us!!!????
GO RANGERSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
I never understood the whole autograph thing.
I told you Nicky Z would score :P
WTB was that?
Z, of course.
does that count as a shot in fantasy leagues
...ahhhh…the cuese of former rangers scoring on us
Are you kidding me? Zherdev, seriously?
A whole half hour till Fringe, sheesh.
bring in biron
Bad goal by LQ! They are not playing well in general today!
>>ha ha Zherdev gets stoned by the King
Haha! Oh yeah?
Henrik Softqvist with a cameo. He’s been missed
Zherdev is dead to me.
Nice GM work Glen.
OMG Zherdev now!!!????
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Firetruck you son of a Mustards!!!
RANGERSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
GO GO GO GO GO GO !!!
Time out!@!!!???
carcillo Johnny, i just looked at the clock and said the same freakin thing!
ching chachhing ching
Another PP goal would be real nice
>>Bad goal by LQ!
He needed one of his shot blocking robots to do the job for him.
Sick one-timer by Lundqvist, up and over the goaltender’s shoulder. Why can’t that one count for us?
Shelley will get his next.
Del Zotto in the doghouse.
They are using a flyers puck, too, Doodie.
I figured I’d tune into some MLS playoff action and Red Bulls are already down 1-0 after just 10 minutes. Must be a theme here for NY teams tonight.
This one’s over early.
do we turn the 3rd period into a fight fest and beat the Carcillo out of Carcillo…I vote yes
They stopped hitting, that’s part of the problem. That and the lack of shots on net. Among other things.
>>Del Zotto in the doghouse.
That’s easy and convenient!
Shelley is ready to score.
Game’s over!
what is it about players that leave our team
and then have a chip on their shoulder when they
play us.
you would think that they’d be happy playing for
an organization that’s more conducive to winning
and they have a better chance at playing.
look at Z and Betts (and Orr)....completely different
players once they left Rangers
sheesh!
This has been probably the worst period of the season. They seem brain dead tonight.
AA does not seem right. I think hismankle is not good.
Hasnt Betts scored a few goals against the Rangers so far?
That’s because all these guys are pissed that Slats didn’t give them huge contracts, so they make us pay.
It’s because Sather screws ‘em so bad that they love to stick it to him every time they play the Rangers. And, the turnover rate for Slats is so high that there are a ton of those guys out there.
jpg
Perfect example was Kovalev. He TORE it up after he left the Rangers and played with the Pens / Jagr / Straka.
Both Nicky Z and Betts have more goals than Gabby!
Trade Gabby! What a waste!
This is one that we probably can’t win without Gaborik.
Flyers make me sick but My love for the Rangers …smothers any hate I have. Our team will come back , we have heart. Our goalie let in some weak ones so we are down but were not out. Betts and Zherdev were good Rangers in my eyes so why wouldnt they wanna play strong against us? We beat the ChuMps and now were gonna beat the goons who played the ChUmps. 6o minutes . It takes a full game to resolve this out come . Our chance is comming up. Third period baby!!!! LETS GO RANGERS!!!!
Kovalev really made us pay when we blew that 5-0 lead in that game way back when.
whats teh score?
LETS GO RANGERS!!!
Ugh Orr I’ll never forget that game.
LETS GO RANGERS!!! Zherdev and betts scored and we are down by two measley goals Mikey. This Flyer team is playing hot as of late so who cares if they out played us in the second period. Time for the 3rd folks. Watch what our boys have in store. oy oy oy oy oy oy!!!!
LETS GO RANGERS!!!
3-1 Flyers. Zherdev, Betts both scored too. its sick
Delzotto give one away and Hank puts one in his own net. It won’t be much fun in the dressing room. Frolov is out there gliding around like it’s a Sunday skate. Where was the defence on the first goal? There was nobody within fifteen feet of Richards when he scored. This will be a test for them. They haven’t really played very well after the goals.
they were some week goals. I sure hope we can come back from this deficit.
Delzotto cost us a goal on that one play on Betts goal . I hope Torts doesnt get to spazzy on him. Give the kid a break.
Somebody should stomp on Carcillo’s toews, just for the hell of it.
Teams are already cluing in on Frolov’s wrap-arounds. The guy is getting creamed cuz he acting like a 1 trick pony.
Del Z shouldn’t get a break. His rookie year is behind him, and he’s had some retarded giveaways already. He should learn his lesson by now.
guys, we cannot win all the time with this lineup. just not gonna and the hustl and grit and shot blockin and all that is great, but u need some talent and gabby will bring that and prospal and drury will add soem offense too. and leadership. lol. we dont really need much more of that when ya got christensen leading the way. and frlov. i havent watched, just got up, but has grachev played? hes going to score soon eventually right? oh i just saw the zherdev goal. or did lq really score that? thats some pathetic carcillo right there. how do make those unbelievable saves like he does, then lets those in? its like the 3rd or 4th horrible goal since the season started.
Carsillio should get his toews stepan with Sharp skates ORR.
Let’s see what they can do now. Full effort, please, no gliding
a one trick elephant is more like it. a pony is too fast to be compared to froloaf.
I could go for some tacos right aboot now. Chalupa, Gordita, anything!
I agree, Greg.
yea ive had enough of dz too orr. if hes not scoring, hes really useless it seems. a liability worse than rozy at this point. should give him a seat like he did with stepan for a game or so. somebody please inform him that the homerun pass isnt working. its got like a 1 outta 10 conversion rate. i thought he brought the puck up good last year. does he not trust himself with the puck? which is why hes losing it alot.
Weak period, some bad giveaways. Happens. They need to learn how to move on.
Exactly, not enough shots.
We need a big third period….
Nobody defending Feds. Carcillo with a cheap shot, undetected.
Didn’t see the hit! Dirty hit
wwwwwttttttttffffffffffffff
thats a shot to the head
carcillo left his feet. someone please destroy him
scumbag
Well said, dde
BS
Led with the elbow and left his feet. That SHOULD be a penalty, but won’t be.
Stupid firetrucking carcillo piece of carcillo.
that better be a major
these refs s a lot of d tonight
I’d go for a loss, but he should pay for it
in-byfuglien-believable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the guy elbows him in the face
jumps off his feet
and nothing
NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this game is bush league
this league is bush league
Who just got hit? Im listening on the Radio and the phone rang.
now we better make a comeback
i don’t care about two points tonight or suspensions…somebody has to take Carcillo out
whoever made comment about frolov and sunday skate. dead on…
WTH IS GOING ON WITH THESE REFS?!?!!?!?!?
What happened to the comments Boyle made, and now Dublowsky and Cally? I thought they would take a penalty to stick up for their teammates.
Wimps!
The refs are offing sharp today
is this game fixed?
OK, I vote someone pounds a Flyer into dust. That’s all I want right now.
you gotta be friggin kidding me
is Fraiser on the ice tonight in disguise?
in prust we trust!!! lol
time to drop the gloves…games over now
Time to beat up flyers now…old time hockey style..send out the 4th line every other shift b4 the 5min mark
This team is sickening!
Biron time? Might not be a bad idea.
Prust wants someone bad.
ok..time for cheapshots!
There you go..
if this game gets ugly, its because of the horrible officiating
Finally.
Prust!!!!
PRUST!!! Love him!
I like this game already!
damn! prust beat carcillo down!
kick his ass prust. ya baby
yeah beat that scumbag
Prust! you da Man!
they tapped each other after the fight! LOL
Atta boy Prustie. He gets the win.
Decision: Prust!
HE BEAT THE CARCILLO.. OUT OF CARCILLO!
Torts needs to accept the fact that the game is over, and it’s time to kill some Flyers!
I don’t recall Carcillo getting that much beating so far
i wish prust would have used some of his MMA training and choked him out
again Rozi cant hold the puck in the zone
Staal and Girardi have been horrendous.
prust clear victory…good fight
I have a feeling Boogart will play tonight more than he will in December.
Booger should be getting double shifted now….didn’t think i would ever say that
Ya know, I’ll take a trade off of a loss tonight if they beat the Devs tomorrow.
now I know why nobody took a chance on Frolov
Frolov and Fedetenko both jumped the shark in the preseason.
Ugh, these guys are such vag’s! Why don’t they target Carter, or Richards? Do something!
i cant watch this isjust too boring. nice fight prust. wheres all our 1st liners like boyle and fedotenko tonight?
Boogart is on again
Who did he hit?
Staal and Girardi are too busy avoiding Flyers to make a decent pass.
Boogard! Leave Shelley alone! Start hitting some of those other guys.
Shelley will have to come to you…
oops, theyre our 2nd liners. my bad!!
“Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob”
Haha! Funny chant!
Wow, Wayne Dubinsky?
there is no doubt in my mind that Frolov is getting packaged by the trade deadline
How inventive of a chant. Jeez.
Sweet move by Dubi, if only he could finish that off.
Olga, Shelley will want nothing to do with him
Uhm, they are up 4-1 and the building is quiet. I wonder why?
It’s time for Booger to attack Carcillo.
From behind Vinny looks like Owen Wilson.
ilb- why bother with Shelley anyway. Hit Richards, Carter, Carcillo. Even Bob. If Shelley won’t stick up for HIS guys, then Boogie can just keep hitting.
I like how Prospal tries to cover up his balding. He has such a weird hairstyle.
I know, Olga he has been hitting. When he is on the ice.
frolov is going nowhere unless hes getting traded for a low pick or something. he is being outplayed by eveeryone. hell, gabby is not even playing and first game back he’ll probably equal frolovs goal total. frolov is what the kings fans liek to call “froloaf” hes way worse than zherdev. zherdev at least could skate and get a nice shot off. and he doesnt even need to shoot it to score. he could just pass it to hank, and boom!
Pee Wee can’t bury a midget’s body, let alone a puck!
Grab- yep probably lucky for a pick for him
He is flying under the radar because The Dubi-Amnisimov-Cally line is playing so good
yea hes gliding under the radar u mean
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT
we won both fights!!!
YEAH BABY!!!!
Hate to say it, but the Flyers is a good team. And they may finally have a goaltender
LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
orr, im guessing christensen got a shot? is that sick wrister something? or what? what? ohhh u said what!! ok. huh?
You cannot win games with shot blocking alone. I say call up Stepan from Hartford. Oh wait… Never miiiind!
Even Wellwood isn’t afraid to hit Hank.
ddeb- 5-1?
I was named Rangers GM today!!! Online LNHL xboxlive leaguedaddy.com .
GO RANGERSSS!!!
Lets fight and be happy!!!!
Wellwood runs Lunqvist?
Boogard needs to run Bob!
A goalie interference call in the Rangers favor? Shocking!
why the hell doesn’t Hank show some of that anger
on wellwood?
who gives a crap?
hit him with you gd stick!!!!!!!
what a frehley ass night
was afraid of this
should have went to the movies
Forget the PP, why wasn’t Wellwood dealt with? Ugh, I hate this team. Why do they have to be such wimps? Please tell me why!
grachevs a bigtime scorere!! get him on the ice! get christensen off!! lol. wheres all the duby haters now????????? huh? where are ya? im coin for ya!!
He was tripped into Lundqvist.
It doesn’t qualify as a “beautiful” deflection when the goalie easily saves it.
Avery was more active during warmup.
I agree, Jpg. Hank must have mistakenly confused his balls with Swedish meatballs and ate them.
He needs to grow a pair and deal with the players himself. Clearly his own teammates wont stick up for him.
hank let kopecky put his butt right in his face the other night. hank barely even moved his head. he nver pushes anybody outta the way. i dont know why but obviously staal n girardi werent gonna do anything, and how long has it been like this? you would think allaire would tell hank,(like he really needs to be told) to clear his damn crease. just a shove, anything.
terrible terrible effort. sam rosen has zero clue.
the del zotto 2nd goal was a horrible play. about the 3rd freebie he has given up so far this year. he needs to use his brain.
the zherdev goal was all henriks fault totally.
the boogard penalty on the slash was laughable for the ridiculousness of the officials.
rangers did jack tonight…
Hank is a delicate flower. I bet he participates in vagina monologue plays.
Grachev is one of my favorites , I want him to score almost as much as I want Boogaard to score!!!
GO RANGERSSSS!!! Its gonna take a miricle on Manhatten , it just too bad were in PHILTHY FILLY. Its only 1 game guys. We lost cuz our former players had a beef to settle tonight.
Not one of Henrik’s best games, but still. Rangers took too many penalties, so they stopped doing anything. They should have just accepted the penalties and taken a few Flyers with them. Way too tentative. And Staal has not had a big game this season—Prospal can take his “A” back.
...another Frolov wrap-around …repeat…ect…and so on…
I’m telling you, it’s a very subdued arena considering your team is winning 4-1
Well, that was less than fun.
Horrible game.
This one tells me a lot aboot this team. They’re wimps! Outside of Prust.
Losers! Some things never change.
Mediocre effort all around from the net out.
Stinko.
FIRE SATHER I tells ya!
christenson best forward for the rangers that is not saying much.
the delzotto gift, the henrik gift, horrible effort.
let fedetenko get cheap shotted by the thug carcillo.
Rangers failed that test
what a bad game, bad officiatting, bad defense (MDZ, Staal), Avery invisible, and the Rangers somehow still look like a bunch of wuss’s even when then win two fights.
Pathetic, why do we let teams take liberties with hitting our star players then we only go after there goons…start taking on their btter players that will send a bigger message.
>>...sam rosen has zero clue.
He’s just another company salesman.
Roszival was actually hitting and crosschecking a few Flyers, yet the meek Girardi and Staal were constantly on the ice, as well as Del Zotto with his long passes to no one. Carp was right—Girardi and Staal are not good together. And it doesn’t matter how many penalties, it was lousy defense that lost this game.
We lost , all is still good . We wake up and prepare for the Devils. Its a long season so we just have to be ready for the next challenge.
with gabby out you would think Frolov and Fedentenko would step it up but NOOOO….they suck
Carcillo got off easy. Those punches probably didn’t even give him an itch. He should have been jumped from behind and had his head pounded on the ice, like High School girls do these days.
They’re all afraid of him. This team is scared.
And this game proves that Booger’s can’t stop anything from happening. Embarrassing!
pathetic…this team just made me sick tonight and our coach needs to start coaching how can he keep MDZ out there all night making horrible plays
Philly went to the finals last year. we didn’t even make the playoffs. we are still improving.
I’m not too bummed out, but we did get thoroughly outplayed tonight.
i think Hank needs a new goalie coach, what is Billy Smith up too or Ron Hextall, he needs to toughen up
Forget them, how aboot Chuck Zito getting hired as our goalie coach? I’m all for that. He might convince Hank to slip a knife in his pads, but he doesn’t have to use it.
Carcillo should be suspended…but the Rangers needed to take care of things in the moment and take a cheap shot back
to me this is our worst lose this season….we looked liked a bunch of chumps…truly sickening
Could it be that Keenan is the only MSG employee that is not a schill?
or is he gonna get fired for not going to see Dolan’s band?
did you guys here what the refs answer was to Fedentenko about the non-call, he told Fedentenko he shouldn’t have ducked…..WTF!!!!! Thats like saying you shouldn’t be facing the boards so you won’t get boarded or you shouldn’t have been skating so you wouldn’t have gotten tripped…unbeleivable…that ref should be fired….no ref bias….bs
whoever said this was less than fun, i watched about 3 minutes and i was bored to death. this is the flyers. our rival. these rival games are played with equal or less intensity than against any other team. did cally get hurt? or was the top line benched or something. why was boogaard out so much? im just going off your comments, but cally wouldve gotten some chances i would bet. hey greg, frolov did a wraparound??? man that guy is sneaky!! his repertoire is chock full of sweet dekes and shots. and he is smart employing that skating method. it suckers the opponent into adjusting their gameplan when he comes in all gary teh snail like. it throws them off. theres just too many weapons this guy has. he has so many but hes obviously saving them for the annual ranger playoff push. but greg, i have a feeling boogaard will not get 5 goals. he’ll still probably end up with more than frolov though. its funny when the rookie who only scored in 1 game still has more goals than the vet sniper.
hear, sorry i can’t spell
is AA hurt he didn’t take any faceoffs in the 3rd, Dubi took them all.
Shanahan knew how to talk to the refs—do Callahan and Staal ever do that? Drury certainly rarely does. Maybe Torts won’t let them.
Remember playing Philly in 06 when Rucinsky counted off the score to Brashear in the penalty box? Rucinsky and Kasparaitis would take penalties to make a point. At least Orr and Hollweg tried—Boogard is a glider. No emotion at all tonight.
>>...he needs to toughen up
Lundqvist needs to stop giving up those bad goals.
i’m sorry i still can’t get over that non-call and the refs response…what a fuggin shame
Normally I would say it’s best for the Rangers to rise above the Flyers level of play, but they should’ve run Bobrovsky. I’m so tired of watching teams in the Atlantic run Hank. Enough. They need to start doling out some cheap shots against teams like the Flyers. Make them think twice about taking liberties with the goalie.
Boogard did what he was paid to do tonight, which is beat the Carcillo out of the next toughest guy in the league. I’m fine with that scrap. Prust was our MVP tonight, though. Black eye and all. Go Rangers, get em next time.
can i change my answer to the poll question, Carp??
I now HATE the Flyers more than the Devils!
this is what happens when you have too many top 6 players all fighting for teh minutes. 2nd liners like boyle get thrown on the 3rd in favor of 1st liners like frolov. and when ya put elite snipers like fedotenko and christensen out there, its gonna teal time away from role players and 3rd liner grinders like gaborik. with all this talent gabby cant even get a spot on teh roster. what to do. but its a good problem to have. if prust gets on a scoring slump, you can always throw boogaard out there to put one in and get things rollin.
NYR never has the balls to pull off something like that.
Dublowsky and Boyle keep talking aboot how they would stick up for their teammates and gladly take the penalty doing so. HA! Where were they? They must not give two sh*t’s aboot Fedetenko.
I bet the league wont even take a look at that hit. It’s a hit to the head, and he left his feet, so that should be an automatic suspension and/or fine.
If it were up to me, I’d hang Carcillo with Hartnells hair, If they haven’t burned it yet
It’s comical how bad Boogaard is at skating. His attempted hit on Meszaros with 3:00 minutes left was pathetic, he looked like a peewee skating there. He shows about as much emotion on the ice as he did for that build a bear segment they did with him.
Marcel Hossa 10x>Grachev.
Boogard is the worst player to ever grace an NHL arena.
Dubi is just a yapper. Hopefully, Brooks will delete that article he wrote today.
no offense, but wtf is boogaard doing at a build a bear segment anyway? i dont care if he shows no emotion at something like that. i dont care if he even speaks.ever. just hurt one of those cheese eatin philthy flyer bassturds!!
also where was our teams reaction to that cheap shot shove by Timmonen on Cally sending him into the boards head first, if you noticed Cally wasn’t his self after that…another great non-call
Boogaards fights are even slow and boring somehow…
Cally was crying after the hit. Literally, he was in tears. I thought it was because he was in pain, but maybe it was because nobody did anything to stick up for him.
Torts was reasonable. Liked that he said other players besides Prust should step up. And he wasn’t complaining about penalties, but about bad play.
Staal and Girardi are old enough and well-paid enough now to take some responsibility for their poor play. They should be the first two to step it up.
I knew the tough talk was all BS as soon as Cally was pushed into boards by Timmonen. Blah, blah, blah. Boogard makes me wanna cry. He is that ineffective.
yeah really, Cally our leader of late gets shellacked and nobody gets back at Timmon…it’s just sad.
This team has made me very upset tonight…I thought they would stick up for themselves/each other more this year…tonight was very disappointing.
We better come out like wild beasts tommorrow against the Devils tommorrow and next time we play the Flyers we should just take runs at Carter, Bob, and Richards.
Disgraceful
yeah where is the fear the Boogeyman was supposed to strike in our opponents to help prevent cheap shots against us…what a waste of money…horrible…what a joke.
In the New York Rangers bible it says “thou shall not have balls”

Marty Rucinsky.
That’s how you play the Flyers.
it also states “thou shall not go after opponents star players”
i miss Kasper.
every ranger in the lockeroom tonight should feel sick to their stomachs at what was displayed onthe ice tonight.
hell i feel sick to my stomach afterwatching tonights game!
ok i think i am done ranting tonight. Goodnight all and hopefully we’ll see a different team tommorrow and then we’ll all be in love with them again.
Kasper is assistant coach in Russia—good for him.
though shall not kill any referees
A trade must be made NOW for a defenseman who exhibits toughness.
new post.
You guys are definitely bipolar – ecstatic after a win, suicidal after a loss.
sometimes Del Z thinks that #4 on his back means he is Bobby Orr. he sometimes tries to do too much with the puck. I agree with Torts when he benched him. it should not be longterm or anything like that. but he needs to learn now in his second season that he cannot skate thru men like kids in junior hockey.
that goal was a backbreaker. it gave the flyers the lead, the momentum, and demoralized the Rangers
