Half an hour late.
I see Versus is actually paying a little attention to the Rangers, actually acknowledging that there is another team playing against Ovechkin, er, I mean, Washington tonight. Though it did have to show us Ovechkin getting dressed.
I trust Eddie O to not make this the Alex Ovechkin show.
Not much news lineup wise. Boogaard will play with the cold or flu or whatever it is he has. Gilroy is prucha’d.

Mandlebaum!
Let’s Go Rangers!
It’s Go time!!!
When we play the Penguins, I hope the PEN () S dont come early! HA!
Coach’s challenge? Are you kidding me? What is this sport coming to?
Why can’t they just drop the All-Star Game?
Hey, I just saw CCCP. We didn’t wrestle in the aisle, but he said we could if I wanted to.
He’s a character as you know.
He asked me to tell CT Blueshirt that he’s in section 325, which is right above where I’m sitting, so I’m expecting some flying beer and food at some point.
He also asked for Laurel.
I don’t root, but I hope they WIN ONE FOR BLOGMAMA tonight.
The only thing wrong with the overtime format is the fact that it’s 4v4. Hockey was meant to be played with FIVE skaters. Want to see change in the way games are played? Award THREE points for a regulation time win.
C3 is a Rock Star!!!
It’s go cry aboot how bad our team is at home…....time!!
Linda – Does C3 rock out with his …. out?
you’d have to ask future mrs. C3 that question. he was ever the gentleman when we met!
Linda – LOL! I forgot to add a ;) after that. I wouldnt expect C3 to be anything but a perfect gentleman!
lmao ORR, and we have to listen to beninati on top of all that!
Eddie O looks as plump as ever.
lmao, i feel sorry for beninati’s wife….
Edzo!
Let’s do this, boys! Go get them!
ORR, he’s in the holiday mood
Eddie O has the Chandler Bing (of later in Friends) face!
>>lmao, i feel sorry for beninati’s wife….
I don’t! She chose him! I feel terrible for their children, though; they didn’t have a choice.
He has a wife, Linda? I wouldn’t be so sure
BANG! Edzo, let’s get this tilt going with the first stanza, next on VERSUS.
GO RANGERSSSSSSSS!!!
GO TIME !!!!
GO TIME!!!!
WOHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! LETS GO RANGERSSSS!!!!!!
i’d be peeing my pants if we lived next door to them when they got frisky… just imagine
oooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHooooooooooo JUST WIDE!
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!!
ok ilb, if not wife, husband. whatever makes him happy lol
Drop the puck! Before they trade Dubinsky…
LMAO! Can you imagine sex between Mr and Mrs. Beninati. Ohhhh, Back door bulls-eye baby!
Instead of hockey, he should be writing scripts for porn. His “talents” are being wasted.
wow, tom brady looks like ultratool with that bieber hair
lmfao… at least ORR gets it..!!!!
Are we going to watch CCCP vs Carp? On VS?
Those three guys look creepy in the dark. As opposed to the light, where they’re horrifyingly horrifying.
LOL @ Orrsie & Linda
lmfao ORR!! you’re on a roll tonight !!
FISTICUFFS, how dare the paint boy use my word!
hey guys. Isnt versus part of regular optimum cable. Because im not getting it??
Boogart is playing with cold? If that doesn’t help him with his skating, I don’t what will
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!!!
GO CCCP!!! GO CARP!!! GO MOMMAAA!!!!
Joe: Hey baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaby, intereseted in some waffleboarding tonight.. or just pitchforking
So that’s where Aaron Ward went. Not that I really cared..
I hope he’s wearing a mask ILB!!! don’t spread those germs, it could lead to a pandemic
Is the NHL the only league that couldn’t get two teams to shoot a commercial together? Notice the Blues players faces were all in the dark. Ha!
anyone have a non-veetle link?
Why do we need all this yapping before the puck is dropped???
lol @ Linda and Orr.
ILBZO , Boogaard all “high” on cold medicines…hes good 2 go tonight!!!!!
Jbytes , Yeah we talk too much before the puck drops hahaha!!!!!
is John Amirante sick again?
A Canadian singing the US National Anthem between 2 US teams? Umm, kaaaay
Don’t know aboot all of you, but I put this guy on mute.
Turn the Page…
roflmfao, you guys are hilarious already!!!!!!
Who/what Page? I only care about Jimmy Page!
OMG, he’s horrible! someone quick, shove a dirty water hotdog down his throat!!! BULLSEYE
Painful. Just painful. And I like BNL.
BOOGARD fight tonight and we win also.
I may gauretee this win tonight.( removes cap for anthem)
Tonight we will win!!!!
Oh my
This moron doesn’t even no the lyrics!!!
cant get the game anyone know where i can watch it on web?
LMAO! The guy in the blue/black striped shirt looked so confused. I think he thought he was going to a barnum and bailey circus.
What’s with his hair? Did he tussle with Boogart?
and we thought ace frehely was bad!
Who let the dogs out!!?????
WOOF WOOF!!!
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!!
That guy sounded like he was half drunk. What a buffoon.
Amarante caught a cold from Booger
Amirante is probably sick of this team :P
ZzZz, I was talking about all the TV stuff and commercials.
Finally! The game.
Step-On playing the wing?
He’s not our first line center anymore :(
loading up with Semin…..
omg i cant take it anymore lol
Orrsie – Amirante’s sick from looking at Booger’s face
Callahan dropped Semin!
ok guess not…..
Cally with the big hit early on. Not surprised.
Callahan unloaded Semin?
More like he smeared Semin along the boards. LOL.
dan, same places as always… atdhe.net or channelsurfing.net…. good luck ;-)
LMFAO MICKEY!!!!! omg this was the perfect time for this game, the past 2 weeks have been pretty carppy!
FLAVAH!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
brian boyle again!
SCORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOYLE BULLSEYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There we go, BB! WOOHOO!!!
Being boyled! 1-nil!
and..Callahan busted Semin
Give Boyle a contract extension!!!
ohhh ohhh ohhh hey!!! hey!!! hey!!! hey!! hey!!
Bryan Effing Boyle! After he dumped Bradley! Bullseye!
LMAO Mickey!
nice backhand
Thanks Linda
GOALLLLLLLLL!
yo carp. for every time you say the rangers just puck watch in front of the net, you got to give props to boyle for putting that guy on his behind! and for scoring a goal!
BRIAN BOYLE!!! and it’s not the weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO HAPPY!!! gotta get some skittles and cool ranch doritos for Saturday!
Damn, Boyle has no assists? Trade him!
the equalizer… edward woodward!
what did I tell you about Girardi and Staal together? They have had two shifts and Lundqvist has had to make two great saves.
Interesting
C’mon Dubi!
Why is Dubinsky fighting???
He’s our leading goal scorer!
Come on Dubi, kick this dirtpile’s ass!
i kinda like the brawlin Rangers
Why is Dubi fighting? That was lame.
What was the point of that? He didn’t even land a shot. What a waste of time.
DUBI DUBI DUBI!!!!!
That was anti-climactic.
stupid fight
Callahan- C
Dubinsky-A
-Gaborik-A
..make it happen
hate the Caps, let’s go NYR!
Dubi…score goals bro
Can’t afford to have u sit for 5
Boyle has double the goals as Kovalsuck!
ORR , WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE!!!! Its a hockey game dude!!!!!
WOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Taken out thier best Dman!!!! WTG DUBI!!!!!!
Dubi’s adding to his early season legend… he wants to be a power forward lol
The result of the fight doesn’t really matter. Dubi was sending a message.
Let’s hope it’s received.
Marc Staal looks awful. he allowed about 6 close-in shots in just a few seconds while he just stood around watching Caps players attack the net.
I don’t mind him fighting. Pumps him up. And the team too
Dublowsky took out one of their worst defensive d-men. There’s a reason he didn’t make Team Canada.
Meaningless fight. He should be on the ice, not in the box. Unless he’s fighting OV, Semin-Slapper, or Backstrom.
hmmmmmmmm i may have to go back to game center live next season! home or away broadcast… niiiiiiiiiiiice
This is Boyles skating coach
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bundesarchiv_Bild_183-1983-0329-027,_Barbara_Underhill,_Paul_Martini.jpg
She’s the girl in the air, not the girl throwing her up.
Hey everybody! Sorry I’m late to the party!
Since Boogaard is sick, I saw put him near Oveckin and have him sneeze on him. Repeatedly.
hiya beth!!!
err, SAY, not saw
DAN….....any luck with those two sites?
Booger should wipe himself on Semin too. Make sure he gets all the goo.
4 in the scrum…....wtb?
Good for Boyle!
And the penalty is on Boyle?????????????????????????????????
What about what that guy did to Zotto??????????????????????
i just love Boyle!
Boyle getting the penalty? Not Chimera? Unreal!
Now that is a situation where you’d want Dublowsky to fight.
DZ wanted no part of that. His BFF coming to his aid, gotta love it.
Boys are feisty tonight.
dan dirardi
He better be getting a penalty. Good work by Boyle. He made him bleed!
hell yeah boyle. THAT’S a penalty to take.
Good. Fair calls.
there ya go Orr!
He didnt do anything there!
He didnt take Carlson down.
The guy slipped.
WTB?! The guy fell down.
laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame!
Jeez louise!
BC penalty!
That’s a STUPID call. JEEZ!
don van assenhoven should retire also
oy…. what was that call for? BS goal on a BS call!
BYFUGLEIN!!
Game over :(
Does Fedetenko paint those little red spots on his cheeks?
Another goal by the referees.
Im just tired of it.
That’s 3,800 goals from the referees this year already
unfortunately, my fantasy hockey team just got a 2nd goal
Can somebody get me Freddy Sjostrom’s cell digits?
ugh. EC didn’t deserve that call. WTF @ the unsportsmanlike call.
The referees wanted to make sure we didn’t enjoy that lead for too long.
what the hell is going on??
HI LINNNN!
Torts losing it.
Since when do they call bench minors on the coach?
what exactly did he do??
NYR-1 VanMassenhoven-1
Alright, the crowd is chanting ass…. Come on fans, jump on the ice and charge a referee. Hurt somebody. Get your money’s worth!
Mr. McRIB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! howyadoin???
Don Vonm ASS en hoven. Another anti NY referee. Such is life.
Brian Boyle is going to destroy someone tonight!
That’s what I’m talkin about. We all here!
Boyer are clearing the crease tonight. Where is Wicky?
Cally cleaning house in front of the net. LOVE IT.
man!!! i’m all Carped up!!!
been dropping comments on the last post and then noticed
why am i the only one posting.
hello!!
James G – I heard about your love of McRibs. So I went out and got 5 McRibs last night and practically inhaled them in 10 minutes. Good stuff!
excellent work ont he boards by Prustie
PRUSTIE!! that kid never stops!!
Boy, can Prust eat the puck!
It’s a miracle! A PP for us!
Nice to see the energy in the place tonight
jpg, the question becomes, were you ANSWERING yourself?
lmap jpg
Wow. A penalty on them.
“The Rangers will have the advantage” says Beninass
No, we dont have the advantage. We should be on a power play up 1-0 right now. Unfortunately, we got scrizzle screwed as usual
Dubinsky just got a big ovation from his teammates upon getting out of the penalty box. I don’t have a comment on that.
What was the unsportsmanlike for? I missed it
anyway Christensen didn’t deserve the penalty
and Edzo Saidzo
but
he’s probably in Chateau BowWow
McRib! A Mickey D’s classic. I should get one of those. I chomped on Meat bread, it was awesome!
Ha! What’s with that little kid. He should be in the Sixth Sense sequel.
OMG, boudreau looks like he’s being strangled by his necktie
someone stick a pin in him… Violet, you’re turning violet
LMAOOOO @ orr talking about the “girl” throwing underhill in the air in the wiki pic
Jpg, I hope you’re not thinking about reposting those comments?
Two things I’ve learned so far,
1-Dubi can’t fight, need to learn big time and
2-The Caps are a very talented team, Lundvqvist needs to stand on his head if the rangers have a chance.
OMG!
C’mon boys get that one back!
NEED ONE HERE.
ok, we’ll have a Rangers penalty within 30 seconds!
5 on 3 for us? Alternate Reality?
a 5 on 3 for us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See, that’s why Green should be on the ice :P
Lin I think one needs a neck to be strangled
OMG they actually saw a call and called it? Hallelujah!!
Is it me or is Dubinsky taking a LOT of faceoffs recently?
lmfao beth, great point! He’s head and shoulders… kinda like Barry Trotz
frolov sucks
HE DIDNT HAVE THE PUCK!!!!!!!!! The puck was loose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Took my words away, Miked.
Hangin in Lin- still at work been here since 5am.
Tiki- good stuff. Had one for lunch. Getting kinda concerned though- I seem to be winded while im just sitting watching tv lol all things in moderation right?
Missed the first 10 minutes here. What’d Dubi take the penalty for?
Really!!????
YEAH BOYLER!!!
Mickey, yes, yes he has. GOAL BOYLE!!!!!!!!
BOYLE AGAIN!! YEAAAAHHH!
Boyle for the Hart trophy
BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!
That’s my Flavah!
SCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOYLE BINGO BANG BULLSEYE LINDA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boyle is our next big contract! Lock him up!
Do you effing believe it? Gaboboyle!
alzner, break that stick asap.
FLAVAAAAAAAAAH! few more goals he’ll activate a bonus in his contract and be able to buy Lin her engagement ring :P
So happy Fro only has a one year deal
So far he’s not even a zherdev clone
(looking up figure skating trainers in the area)
Being boyled AGAIN! 2-1.
He’s deceptively quick with his stick around the net.
ok shut em down boys c’mon!
ohhh ohhh ohhh hey!!! hey!!! hey!!! hey!! hey!!!!!!!!!
Boyle 2 Washington 1
ilbzo… I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!
Joekuh, I thought so.
Best the crowd’s sounded all season.
lmao James!!!!!!!!!!!! at this point he could just put a marshmallow heart on my finger!
Correction Izzy Boyle 2 – Refs 1
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!!!
hate to say it..but boyle is all sather’s doing.
Anyone else curious to see what’ll happen if Boyle centers Gaborik when he’s back?
Boyle for the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy. He’s been dealing with leg problems for the last few years, and he finally got it fixed. How’s that for perseverance??
FIRE SATHER!
LOL
Henrik making the header save on that 2 on 1. Like the chippiness in this game. LMAOthe drill sargeant psychiatrist. LOVE that commercial!PS Eminger. PLEASE dont go for the big hit tonight in the offensive zone. PLEASE.
Crybaby.
I’ve always liked Boyle. Glad to see him having such success.
right beth.
RANGERSSSSSSSS!!!
Somebody’s been eating his sheathed this season!
oooooooooo how did you get the red in there?
Boyle is going to get a big raise this summer. That’s for sure. He better not hold out!
our boyle is doing better than dan boyle! who would have thought
the success of Boyle = the magical power of being a red sox fan.
Sather, sign red sox fans. STAT!
hey miked
a broken clock gives the correct time
twice a day
Love Sauer!
Atta boy Sauer!
The knee on knee contacted Eminger. Should be a penalty.
SAUER!! wow… who are these guys tonight!
Emminger goes down. Gilroy just perked up
*wheaties not sheathed. Damn auto spell correct
Gilroy just had an orgasm in the press box!
man everyone is feisty tonight! Sticking up for each other I like it!
Good for Sauer! Folks, we’ve got a team!
Sauer sticking up for Emminger. I love the team tougness this year.
lmfao miked! Gilly’s ready to riot!
What’s with all the sticking up for each other? Interesting.
LOL! And we’re down a man?
we’re freakin brutally funny tonight!
I couldn’t do it anymore…Beninati and Olczyk talking about handing out 10 minute penalties and the way they completely ignored the Avery penalty (BTW – what did he do???) sealed the deal for me…I grabbed the radio broadcast off the NYR website, but its a good 10 seconds off of TV. Anyone have a place to listen that might be a bit closer on sync for the TV?
and…. we get the extra two?
That’s an OK penalty for Sauer to take.
I don’t understand the officiating in this game at all.
Avery got a penalty too?
Nice game by Boylevechkin so far.
Bad refereeing by Van Massengill
yea cuz Sauer pounded the guy lol
these refs are bush-league
Teek i think Avery gave it to the refs after that EC call. That would be my 1st guess.
Damn! Hank is so retarded when playing the puck.
Avery is just sitting in the box for Sauer.
why did Sauer get a double minor?
byfuglien cable went kaput and i had to reboot
welcome home Pimp!!
I dont understand the officiating in this LEAGUE
Easy to understand the officiating.
OV on Caps…Caps v. Rangers…call penalties against Rangers. Repeat.
Still waiting for Booger vs King
neither do they James lol
Brian Boyle finally learned how to use his big body! ;-)
you tell ‘em Edzo….praises Avery
I’m hoping they bring some of this feistiness when I’m at the game on Sunday. Makes for a better game to watch
Great effort by Frolov. Got taken down, should’ve been a penalty
James G – The McRibs are excellent! Everything in moderation, haha!
It’s time all of you understand the officiating in this league. Two words.
Anti-Ranger
Bradley put it right into his body. Lucky save to be honest, but I’ll take it.
Fun period. The Refs are morons though, as always.
now THAT was a fun filled first period!
you think one of these days
we should make the mentioning of
“Edzo” a drinking game.
hear an “Edzo”
do a shot
winner makes it through the game
and able to type in a full sentence, spelled correctly.
prize. bragging rights!!
That was fun!
Great effort Fro to keep our last chance alive. Keep up the hard work and the goals will come.
Good period. Standing up for each other. Caps are playing pretty lose in their end, got to put more pressure.
Booger King. Have it your way…
damn that Due Date commercial
all this time i was getting ready to
see the movie for its suspense-filled
scenario of whether husband makes it
cross country for his wife’s birthing process.
jpg i think hendrick went knee to knee on eminger. Sauer didn’t like it. they wrestled a little bit. refs say sauer jumped in. extra 2 to him. these refs have seriously sucked tonight. Boyle 2, Refs 1. Noah-tenko, you have the officiating down right LOL
The refs have called some fathom calls against the rangers this year and the one where the ranger player didn’t touch him in the corner, the cap player lost his edge and fell to the ice.
Boyle wants a piece of that Soto. Maybe he needs help with something other than skating? Who knows.
Sauer plays with the same toughness as Mara did with us.
yea, i’m smiling right now
Man if the next 2 periods are as good as this one, this will be one talked about for a while. REALLY liked the physicality in the 1st.
jpg, if the “Edzo” drinking game is played when PJ Maguire is there is could be lethal. Plus your full sentence, spelled correctly is unfair to greg.
“Opportunitist”?
I like our chances guys. Im feeling perty good ‘bout this game. 3 fights and more to come. Hanks Elite-ing it up again tonight. The Caps have bigger forwards but ours have more heart. We work harder . We want this win and we want it badly.
More scoring to come by both teams!!!!
Hang on to yer hat and tuck the little ones in bed. The game could be a “blood bath” and goals will be aplenty!!We win tonight at any cost.
lmfao @ BLUE!!! hilarious
Ha Orr, you’re right about Boyle wanting some Soto. I liked how he mentioned working out in the gym. You could tell he wanted to add “with my shirt off.”
lol @ the 370z commercial. I aint givin up that z. forget that.
that reminds me. who’s got a link to the boneheads fb page???
Joekuh – my fiancee has a 370z currently and he said the same thing
Hey Boneheads the refs suck every night! Can anyone point back to a well officiated game…???
Staal Wart
I can point to a well officiated game.
Rangers Devils a week ago. Rangers only got 1 penalty called against them. A fair game. Wish we had 81 more games like that.
Like Obama on the USA, Kovalchuk is killing the Devils…
Staal, maybe in 1979, one time
GO BONEHEADS!!!!!!!!!
WOHOOOOOOOO LETS GO RANGERSSSS!!!
ITS ALL ‘BOUT the Rangers OLGA!!!!! You stay here girl , we’ll take good care of ya over here in Rangerland!!!!!
Fine Tiki but thats the only one!...lol
lol @ BlueSeat
Carp, what was the unsportsmanlike for?
Like Bush on the USA, Sather is killing the Rangers.
Don’t you mean 80, Tiki? According to Greg, there’s only 81 games!
Torts must have said something, since it was a “bench minor”
right olga. lol beth, he sounds like a smart man.
FIGHTS TO COME :
#1 BOOGAARD!!!
#2 PRUST!!!
#3 Avery!!!!!
speaking of bench minors, anyone remember the hawks game a couple years ago when they had about 4 5 on 3’s and renney came out on the ice screamin at the refs when they finally scored on one?
BOOOOOOOOO GAME 82!!!!!!! In a shoot out!!!!???? Aw come on!!!! BOOOOOOOOOO Flyers!!!!!
GO OUR GUYS!!!!
Rangers rule and Caps drool!!!!!
lmao @ edzo with the cliff lee reference. NICE.
I think so too, ORR, but I’m not sure… He dropped a few f- bombs right on the screen lol
lmao Greg, I haven’t heard that since my daughter was probably 7 !!
LOL! Joekuh, I was laughing so hard when he did that. I like seeing an angry Renney. It’s entertaining.
I WANNA “dubi-kiss” Dubi!!!!! ....ohh ummm did I spout that out loud!!?? I got Cr9 there for a min. My bad.
Go Rangersssss!!! Dubinsky could hold out for more $$ now Orr, hahahahaaha thats “our” boy Dubi!!!!!
Does anyone find Danica Patrick attractive? I don’t see the attraction!
it’s time for Prustie to get a goal!
I’m not worried aboot Dublowsky anymore. I’m worried aboot Boyle. He might sign with a Canadian team to be close to that old lady who taught him how to skate, and apparently how to play hockey, and pickup women…..
And sing songs.
Hahaa Linda …ah it was kinda bad huh? Too funny!!!
They gotta bring it just as hard this period as Wash is gonna come out with a fire under their arses
Can this period be as exciting as the first? Questions will be answered.
“CRAFTY” i love that word
Artie has been extra quiet tonight. Cally as well, aside from a big hit.
Hmm. Nice catch on that Edzo.
funny Greg, not bad lol
Mickey – You’re on fire tonight!
LOL @ greg going cr9 for a minute. whoever mentioned callahan, do it again. he finally got a shot tonight.
benninati..i didn’t know the blues were such a “buzzsaw”
rrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwr
sonsabitchinbastages!
Why was he alone?
How did that shot go in?
LQ had a clear lane to see it.
Hank always lets losers score on him.
I knew that was going in once Erskine took the puck.
Ovechkin is like a caveman, I swear. I’m surprised he speaks a language, instead of grunts.
Aww, crap. BOOO.
ugh. gotta step out on that one Henrik.
Lunker shoulda had that….
CTB and CCCP are sitting right in front/behind one another.
A guy with 7 career goals just ripped one from 30 feet to a perfect spot. Only against NYR
When Hank isn’t letting in softies, I worry!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does Christensen even try in the face-offs circle?
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!
THE BOOGIE MAN! Wow…
big slapshot but LQ has to stop that with nobody in front
And thanks, Tiki, I had a good day, that must be the reason.
HOLY CRAP!!
OMGOMGOMGOMG
BOOGIEMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOOOGARDDDDDD
Hell has frozen over folks!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOOOOOOOOOGIE!!!
IVE LOST THE BET WITH GREG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGIE!
ahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGGEYMAN!!!!
BOOGER GOAL!!!!
HOLY CARCILLO THE FIRETRUCKIN SKY IS FALLING!!!!!!!!!!!
Who lost $20 tonight?
BOOOOGARRDDDD!!!!!! GREEEG! BAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Say WHAT? Boogieman! 3-2!!
Greg- call me if you need medical help, bro. Boogart!
BOOGIE…the best Ranger ever!!!!!!
BOOOOOOOOOOGIE!!!
GREGS IN THE MONEY!
HOLY CARCILLO!
HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, is the world endinng now? (looks around nervously)
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Greg must be doing backflips
there’s your man on the pp point!!
probably keeps the puck in the zone about as good as Rozy
think one of his teammates got the puck for him?
what a shot that was. linda, looks like todd white may riot
......I just fainted.
Booger bailing Hank? Would would have thunk it?
HOLY CARP!!!!
i am pissin my pants ! I knew he was gonna score….... it was like in slow motion! AWESOME!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGEY!!!!!!
What a rip shot!!!!!!!!! BOOGALOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Once again, Lundqvist gets bailed out.
Booger has more goals than Gabby!
Someone needs to call the 9 and 1 for Greg. He can handle calling the other 1 himself.
Was that Steve Larmer wearing 94 a moment ago? ; )
Edzo likes Headzo
lmfao miked!!!
my eyes are rubbin themselves over that miraculous vision!
Booger scores, and Step-On hits the post. That’s a step forward.
They are positively buzzing after that goal. Keep Wash running around!
Greggie – I owe you $20. And if we win this game, it will be well worth it :)
Is this the same team as Sunday? Hi Carcillinda!
Frolov really bites!!!
Hmm. Fro looking a little more offensive minded tonight.
i’m getting tired of hearing how great goalie coach Benoit Allaire
is when Hank is still leaving too much on the short side again and again
and….
WOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
I love Boogaard.
I love the Rangers.
I love all youseeeeeeeeee!!!
“he has been pierced 3 times by the rangers”- benannti.
jeez
jeez first home game i dont attend and its the circus @ MSG…BOOGARD WITH A BLAST HAHAHA!!
HE GOT TRIPPED!!!! THATS A PENALTY!!!!!!
Christensen gets a kharmic payback
nice lets extend this lead…lets go PP
good to know neuvirth’s been peirced 3 times…..
Whatever has gotten into the boys tonight, Torts needs to bottle up and give it to them before every game.
On that Boogaard goal, the D man bailed out and missed the puck BECAUSE of boogey coming for him.
I’ve been saying for the last two-three seasons, Benny should get fired. He hasn’t helped Hank out much these last few years.
That was actually a wicked shot. perfectly placed. hah
Losing bet to GregL $10
Witnessing in person the first Boog goal in 4 years priceless
That goal by Boogaard was sick. I wonder how hard he shot that puck. He needs to do that at every opportunity.
greg- u deserved that big guy!!! unreal goal. big steve larmer-esque slapper!!!
but stepan and of course frolov cant score on the subsesquent shift. frolov is almost redden like with his slow deliberate moves around teh net and hes always late to the play. get him in hartford too.
ZZZZZZZ
to quote Springsteen
“But you don’t even know me”
i agree jpg
I just went upstairs to make sure I’m in the right place….mrs is still there. I’m not dreaming. That was some shot too
Tiki , saweeeeeeeeeet!!!
Its all ‘bout Boogaard feeling good , the Rangers feeling good.
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!
Torts got a haircut?
Let’s capitalize on this PP guys. GET UP!!!
lol @ the ref doing the funky dance there
i just have that uneasy feeling like that back n forth game last year with teh caps. exciting but nervewracking
here’s a quote from Jim of Blueshirt Banter:
“Here is your advanced stat of the evening, courtesy of George Ays….No one shorter than 6’7” has scored for the Rangers tonight”
R you kidding me?!?!?!??!?
dz needs a benching
bs call
WHAT?
That’s a boarding. Hope it’s not 5 minutes.
oh, whoops!
cap player meet board
Stupid play by Girardi.
jpg- its almost cr9-ish type conspiracy against us tonight. jeez cmon refs!
of course, the refs didn’t call the trip in their zone.
don’t know which Ranger went flying.
i missed it, was it really a board by girardi?
Grabby – who is this CR9 you speak of :)
Yes, it was a legitimate boarding call, Grabby.
Stepan getting 4 on 4 time. Niiice.
Horrible!
Greg with your winnings you need to pay for CCCP and I to go to games the rest of the year it’ll pay off when Boog gets his hat trick.
Somebody needs to tell DelZotto that people actually study tape on how you play and that he needs to come up with a new outlet pass.
Darn it
damn damn damn
this team is mickey-mouse
love that stick checking rangers. im sick of this team goodnight
STOP WITH THE STICK CHECKING ALREADY!!!!!!!!
aaaaaaaaaaaargh… how do ya…....
so no one pays attention to man coming down the lane.
thanks Prust
and
Hank should get an assist for that rebound
Knuble – Ranger killer
OV made Avery and Staal look like boobs!
Now it’s Stepan’s turn to get a goal, since he hasnt scored since Opening game.
Everybody is stick checking!
hank, make some saves! I need to beat Mullet this week!
Time for a Boogie answer
i’ll be back later. maybe the rangers man up i dont get it. is this torts fault? cuz they do it constantly
What?
BULL****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
awwwww, carcillo
What the byfuglien
That’s not a goalie interference.
.....seriously. SERIOUSLY??
wtb?! are you kidding
That goal should have counted!!!
the caps guy dragged Fedetenko into the goalie!!!!!!!!!!!
Van Massengill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!You Suck!!!
There’s the conspiracy, folks. People run into Henrik and the puck goes in, and it never gets taken away.
worst officiating people in all of sports
What the hell is Fedetenko supposed to do when he’s being held? Stupid refs. They need the Billy Batts treatment!!
VanMassenhoven the Ranger killer!!!
Carlson knocked the puck into the net. WTB.
I wonder how many goals we’ll get taken away this year?
82?
i mean this is a complete joke really…..
If I hear “the great 8” one more time from bennidouchie’s mouth…..
What is it with these refs and their ridiculous moustaches?
some strange officiating… that’s all I’m saying
Torts put his scowl in his pocket once Soto came to the bench.
i dont even feel the least bit good that all of you are seeing what’s going on. i feel sick that is never going to change without some impetus.
you think Torts paused to remind himself not to curse?
Craig replace that d with a b, tis a bannable word in the world of Carp ;-)
Fedotenko was basically pushed into the net. And I think this goes without saying but Versus’ coverage is absolutely miserable. I love how every goal is a tally. Like they’re afraid to say the word goal.
Torts TransalationL: our defense sucks, the refs are a complete joke why do we have to be on versus right now…im not in the mood for a friggin interview right now
this isnt strange officiating. this is expected officiating. cheat us without making it look too obvious – some of the time, they fail on the not making it look obvious part. Tonight’s been obvious.
It’s like watching a Titanic Movie. No matter what happens we’re going to end up sitting on the bottom.
cr9- you are right. i cannot stand the refs teh last 2 games. it is ruining teh game for me. i dont even wanna watch it knowing they are screwing us constantly. our defense is total crap, but we scored that goal. that is utterly frustrating
I just remembered to mention, anyone notice Boyle clear the net once in the 1st? wicky, there’s your man!!!!
Fight up in the stands … i don’t think CCCP was involved.
Torts looks very confused right there. LOL
Roszival will cost them this game.
c’mon Booger we need another goal
Carp, what section?
I wonder what Joe Micheletti thinks of that no goal call.
lol @ Carp. Be honest, we know he was involved. :)
C3 coat checkin some Caps fans Carp?
That Semin On The Ice guy was right. OV would make NYR look stupid, and NYR fans would bully a Craps fan.
I guess we’re going to lose this game since everything he said is coming true.
Ok guys, SOMEONE has to go to the front. can’t have 3 ppl behind the goal line.
Brian,that’s because they are obsessed with being cute and using their buzzwords… lame lame lame… like TILT… another annoying buzzword for game… sigh
Dumb pass by Staal.
lol orr u remember that too?
I hope Boyle gets the hat trick.
Why did Staal pass the puck backwards on that rush?
Van Massenhoven, McCreary, Auger, Fraser, the list goes on.
I cant watch this crap anymore. It’s too many times we get cheated and nobody on the Rangers stands up and says anything. Not Jaromir, not Drury, not Torts, not Renney, not Avery.
Idiot Avery will talk about sloppy seconds, but not corrupt referees. Idiot Jaromir will talk about Presidents of the US and US policy, but not corrupt referees.
Orr, you’re too young to be such a hardcore pessimist
umm, if Dubi is attempting a goatee, I would advise against it. Not only does it look awful, but it’ll take him over a year to accomplish it
Can’t forget it, Joekuh.
lmao @ someone screaming WTFedotenko thinking it was penalty for that Ovechkin hit
oh man I thought the refs were gonna call a penalty on us just for hitting Ochekin
anyone ever try that disarono?
Good game so far, huh? I picked it up a bit into the second period.
What happened to Emrick on Versus? No matter if you dislike him, you have to agree he’s better than Beninati, especially for a Caps game.
lmao Mickey, although I am sure Sally would love that
Dublowsky reminds me of Bud Bundy. He tried to grow a beard on Married With Children, and Peggy and Kelly Bundy would always tell him to wash his face, cause he “has mud on his face”. Half assed beard.
did a grown man just utter the word ” PUNSTER”
does Frolov wear his socks upsidedown?
A face full of forecheck. Really Bennanati?
orr- u just feel it its one of those games like teh carolina game or actually like last years 5-4 loss. its almost the same game everytime we play them here. we are getting chances though which is really good. we can score, unless frolov or fedotenko shoot it. its funny, both of those guys have like 1 goal and both had goals disallowed in consecutive games. it couldve got both of them going offensively.
lmao Blue!
lets go Flavah Flav
If Versus games were weekend games I seriously would try a drinking game involving any made up buzz term to get the average fan involved in this game.
hey NCNYR, how are ya
eminger turned 27 on Halloween, dressed as Voros
Amaretto is GOOD. Really good. Combine with sour mix and yummy!
So true, Linda. Where IS Sally btw?
the 6-5 loss i mean. the one where we were up 5-3 in teh 3rd. had our usual 3rd period meltdown and hank couldnt stop a beach ball either. hope he doesnt let in any more.
lol beth, we should just do that on saturdays anyway
is Avery bleeding?
you know Sally, always busy with school. I can’t wait until she’s on winter break, spring break, and then graduation lol
jpg – The cut on Avery’s nose is from a high stick the other day. A high stick and 4 minute penalty that went uncalled.
Dublowsky, Artie, and Cally have been lifeless tonight.
hey Linda I am good, i missed most of the first period tonight though
LOL, Linda. Good one.
it was a winner NCNYR
thank you rozy.,
Stepan needs a goal he’s been playing better the last two games
a looooooooooooooooooong saucer feed..wtb is that exactly?
it sounded like he said kanoodle
Forget about violence to make a statement. I have a better idea, for when we’re not at MSG. When we’re getting cheated by referees, which is practically every game, Torts ought to just pull our players off the ice and refuse to play unless the refs act fairly. If they choose not to, Torts pulls them off the ice and forfeits. Costs the fans at the road arena their money and the excitement of seeing a game.
Roszival just saved a goal
This period can’t end fast enough
good job by rozy i was actually serious
no no Beninati, Boogey didn’t just beat Neuvirth, he “PIERCED” him.
AA was doing pretty good a shift or two ago.
Cally and Dubi not so much
but then again Dubi still messed up from his bout in the first period
yeah it looked like a real go first period. Glad I was able to at least see the Boogers goal.
Orr, they’ve carried the team so far this season, I think they are allowed a quiet night. Plus, they are matched up against Ovechkin’s line, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were concentrating more on defense.
Tiki, i have a feeling there’d be some big fines for that from buttman and his henchmen
good call Mickey!
from the little I saw of the first, Boyles having a great game and I loved how Sauer stuck up for his teammate
well…. what’s everyone’s feeling for the third period?
Linda – You may be right. But they cant fine or suspend a team for forfeiting. That’s well within the rules.
Definitely an entertaining game. We’ve gotta stop with letting them get that up the middle break though. Good play by rozi to stop it, then spring EC…..sigh, cmon EC we need something good tonight!
it would definitely make a statement Tiki!!! i wonder if Torts has the testicular fortitude to do it!
Eminger and Sauer have been solid tonight so far.
shattenkirk- i am totally with ya bud. that felt like a whole game just in that 2nd.lol. god i just want a win. a home win. fans deserve it.
Beth- I can barely feel my body, let alone the third period
I like our chances in the 3rd. Just need one good rush, and concentrate on D.
beth…being tied against the Craps ain’t too bad, LQ will need to stand on his head and not give up a softie, and Boyle needs the trick.
Boyle or Stepan with the game winner :)
gotta lay off the vodka on game nights there ilb
Joekuh, they do make lots of shovel passes to get out of the neutral zone and into the offensive zone..
LARMER!!!
Roszival’s still in my chateau bow-bow. He owes me 3 good plays. A goal will break even, but his play has been poor.
Caps d is pretty bad if they have a “face full of forecheck.” Need to make the forecheck count.
Torts is going to save Boogaard for 1 shift in the 3rd so he can store his energy and get another breakaway. With all the weight I’m surprised his stick didn’t break and pierce Neuvert.
Good breakdown by Aaron Ward.
lol @ Aaron Ward calling Sloan a coward without exactly saying the word
LMAO, well said by Mara. I’m sure Sloan was scared carcilloless
Torts doesnt have the cojones. That’s why it’s up to our captain upon his return. Captain not Courageous. Captain Cordial. Craptain Dru!
i’ve said it before but I really like the play of Sauer, he is a solid d-man and doesn’t hurt this team at all, he knows when to be physical, when to jump up in the play and makes the smart pass
Beth- that’s when you actually double it up, sis
lmfao @ ‘our captain’ and Mickey!
ugghhh, just watched the erskine goal. hank, cant u stay up???
beth, i think we win this. weve been getting shots and chances. we gotta get more than cycling going though. were doin well in that area but every shot neuvirth faces, he lets up a juicy rebound. gotta just blast em from anywhere really. i think either boyle gets a hatty or one of the higgins clones(frolov,feds,avery and stepan )get one. actually, avery hasnt had teh chances the other 3 have had lately, but he still needs to score. hes been kinda quiet lately
They HAVE TO stay out of the box in the third. The Caps PP scares living bejeezus outta me, much like having Boogaard skating down the wing towards a wee little d-man.
lmfao @ wee lil dman!
Grabachev I’m definitely hoping for a Boyler hatty. He deserves it.
Wait a second…Boogart with the bug, isn’t he? It’s viral. That’s why he scored. Someone needs to tell him to kiss Frolov. On the mouth, while he is still contagious.
Larmer!!!! Where??? He was one of my favorites. Does anybody else remember he signature breakaway move?
He would just skate straight in and rip a slapper. I remember when he did that on a penalty shot in Chicago against Eddie (the drunk) Belfour and scored it was awesome.
I used a Larmer Sherwood5030 Featherlite stick for years.
lmaof @ CarcilLinda lhfaof
http://nhl.fanhouse.com/2010/11/09/derek-boogaard-scores-first-goal-in-235-games/
I’m tired of Hank allowing these scrubs to score on him. It’s embarrassing.
Remember when Poti had a two goal game against us. Ugh. I wanted to hang myself.
ilb, maybe dubi can give Boogaard kissing lessons.
Mickey, I wouldn’t count on the Rangers staying out of the box with moustacheod villian #2 reffing.
Edmonton is down 1-7? Looks like Tom Renney will soon be available to be the Rangers PR guy. He knows how to talk to the media.
villian #2! haaaaaaaa its like credits at the end of the movie!
lmfao @ ilb and Blue Seat
Oilers are hoping to steal that #1 pick next year from the Devils I think
Boris Badenoff is reffing the game?
I think VanMoustachenhoven likes irony. If the Capitals win tonight it’s going to be because Knuble plows through Hank and knocks both goaltender and puck into the net.
Avery needs tp find his “edge”. He’s been pretty girly lately.
lmao boris badenov!
AA needs to be stronger on his stick there
oh god, Buffalo on Thursday. Please to get the MSG feed. I don’t think my ears could stand Beninati and Jeanneart in back to back games.
Good God how many players need to be ignoring the guy alone in front of the net.
well Mickey, we had to hear that dude murder the National Anthem tonight, then beninobby
Frolov sucks
shoot Mickey I know my ears would be burst and bleeding
6 Blue, exactly 6
4 on 2 and they can’t even get a shot on goal. FRIGGINS!!!
Friggin FRiggins
Error: please type a comment.
Why does it seem like the defense is parting like the red sea tonight? Did Hank sleep with one of their wives?
lol @ Linda and beninobby
those 3 are never gonna score
ah man so close
lmao @ Aves with sloppy 4ths!
Mickey, any news on the game in Nashville yet?
WTF is a dasher anyway?
so many close calls in tight tonight
Dasher is a reindeer
its part of the boards ilbzo
Good job by Anisimov on the great egg.
wow…. my tv just cut out for like 30 secs. Almost freaked a bit there.
hehe, Artie tried to spill Semin
there’s the 4 men in the scrum again
oh beninobby, you are so clever
lmfao Mickey!! AWESOME
Trip on Frodo?
Just met Bonehead eric, who stopped by the box.
Frolov sucks around the net, ithought he was good at those garbage goals
Artie exploded Semin :)
Seems like Hank hasn’t faced many Semin shots tonight. That’s a good thing.
Carpy, I hope i get to go to a game that you’re at! I’d hope that the first time we met would NOT be at my wedding party lol!!!
Linda, it’s a near go. Got an email back from my friend earlier today that said she’d love to have me come for a visit and the game. Just need to firm things up with her and I’ll know more.
Good one Mickey.
Shattenkirk, I was thinking the same thing. Told some of the writers I’m going to start calling him Christopher Frolov. Or Ales.
uh. where exactly was Carlsons moustache?
jeez i can grow a better stache in two hours
Friggiloafik?
Eureka! We just found out what Dubinsky is doing, he’s taking part in Movember. Only stealthily.
Soto looks more hotter tonight. She lost that depressing look she used to have. Maybe she’s got a little action going with a hockey player.
NC, you are a manly man
you lousy bastages
del zotto. u suck!!!!!!!!!!!
Game over
Season over
man are we even gonna get a point out of this???
CRAP.
Lost battle …4-3
You the worst thing about all these full faces of forecheck…the Semin shots.
fugg
i mean rozy. well, both do
What’s that noise? I think we hit an iceberg….
Just as I was gonna say Rozi was playing a good game. Sigh.
face full of forecheck, face full of fist, fist full of dollars….
you know Rozy has been pretty good for much
of the game
but when he makes a mistake
boy does it come back to bite him.
and, of course, no one paying attention
to someone coming down the middle
and Hank just getting pasted.
sheesh!! it gets old.
Ahem. Repost:
Blue Seat Horror says:
November 9, 2010 at 9:06 pm
Roszival will cost them this game.
I’ve never wished anyone to be injured…but I’m getting close.
were done. goodnight all. i could use the sleep.
Rozival did not turn the puck over…DZ made a terrible pass…you could hear him yelling to Rozi…
a for accountability… soo clever
Beninanti + Blowzy = a losing combination.
how come some many of our centering passes end up on our own goal
Gee! Rozsival losing the puck behind his net, that never happens…
hehe, good one Blue
That Semin On The Ice kid must be psychic. Everything he said has come true thus far.
What was DelZotto thinking passing the puck backwards??????
missed the dang net by a mile and half!
of course
O damn. Good pass Rozi.
Get rid of Ruslan. He’s a waste. What a giant waste.
Did you not learn anything from Boogaard, Ruslan? ON. THE. NET.
The best thing is that after losing the puck Roszival just sits there behind the net. And by the way he has NOT has a good game. I count at least 3 critical giveaways.
what is the brilliant defensive play of
shooting the puck into the opposing player?
it seems to be very popular among
Rangers players.
Open your eyes folks…DZ made a horrible pass to Rozival…
now blue, stop picking on rozsi lol ya big bully you
Orr – I admit, you were right, i was wrong. i thought ruslan could be a valuable addition to the team or a trade asset. he’s neither.
he does have a cool last name though lol
Versus makes me long for the days of Buccigross and Melrose on ESPN. Siiigh.
Avery with the same ol’ shot. Right in the stomach.
If saying Rozsival sucks isn’t kicking a dead horse, then what is? It will never be addressed either!
Beninobby’s hitting his stride. Got a little swagger now that his Caps have a lead.
Somebody said this before, and I agree. I feel sorry for his wife:
Beninobby: Honey I’m feeling like a punster and I know you washed your hair last night, so how ‘bout it.
Wife: I suppose I have to.
Beninobby: Can we-
Wife: We’re not playing face full of forecheck ever again!
‘a one year ticket’ sigh
It must be nice to have several scoring threats on one team. Meanwhile, Rangers fans desperately hope for a Brian Boyle hat trick.
Win a faceoff clean and it’s out of the zone. Never easy, it is never easy.
lol blue
Yeah, so far a lot of which I’ve said has come true. Fedetenko sucks, as I’ve predicted, Frolov sucks, as I’ve predicted, and the savior MZA started in Hartford.
I also said NYR would miss the playoffs, so you guys should all worry.
Good job EC.
drips below 8 minutes. srsly?!
Pee Wee draws one. Good job.
Let’s Go Rangers!
“he’ll melt it in the crease”
It’s FREEZE IT! NOT melt it
tortorella playing a hunch? oy hunch makes me think of guy fieri
lets go rangers
danced on the roof of the net..
i thought this was hockey
oh dubi
it danced on the roof!!! what is the puck, santa claus?
not santa claus, the puck’s a stripper
cmon guys
Danced on the roof: Vern Fiddler on the roof?
Del Zotto is horrible with those long breakout passes.
lmao@ Joekuh. Tis a very slimmed down Sant Claus, if it is. Or maybe it’s Dasher. It IS Christmas time already.
+3 blue.. very good!
oooh jack daniels goal cam and metallica …..... :-)
tumbles it back to center?
put Booger out there his confidence has to be sky high after scoring tonight…he can do it again
wow caps coach looks like his noggin is gonna explode
Empty net goal coming.
carcillo cally took a puck in the face
owie on Cally
Callahan “got tangled up with Kimmo Timmonen”
Uhhh, NO! He didnt get tangled up with. He got thrown head first into the boards.
Ol’ Blue Eyes! I love that!
this is gonna be a long long season
Shoulda had Dubi in the faceoff circle. He’s 8-4
sprinkles it off the dasher?
I hate this guy. I wanna strangle him
EC sucks
Don’t know what the hell Fonz was thinking.
Later folks.
god they suck when they pull the goalie
aaaaaaaargh bastages
Another game salted on a empty netter.
MDZ with a dumb play dumping that puck in on an offsides
well… on that note, g’night everyone catch youse in the morning
So why’d DZ bang the puck in the zone on a delayed offsides again?
Another game cheated out of by the refs. 2 goals taken off the board in a week. Thanks for the unfairness.
NYR = The worst team in NHL history while on a 6 on 5
This team sucks. They’re going nowhere.
I’m done with this stupid team. Trade them all who cares. Jesus.
sit mdz next game and play gilroy
As the sea closes over the stern of the Titanic, you begin to realize that it couldn’t have ended any other way…
Don’t know why Dubi (9-4) didn’t take the o-zone faceoff instead of Artie (2-8). Tortorella really sticks his head on the sand at the worst moments. Idiot.
What happened to the team from the first two periods? They were fun, they were creating offense, they were sticking up for each other. The team from the third was like a bad trip back to the Renney years.
niters beth! have a great wednesday
They couldn’t generate anything 6 on 5. Not enough game breakers. Back to .500. Would love to hear what Torts is going to say.
Oh well, maybe next game!
Even if the refs were morons, Hank didn’t get the job done.
He should have been pulled after Erskine tied it up.
Carp – can’t take credit for Friggins by myself – it was a bonehead group effort!
Sire Father!
Can’t get too up or too down, it’s too early.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again- this team would NOT have a .500 record had Gaborik been hurt for the same span last year. We are getting goals by Dubinsky, Callahan, and Boyle which would not have happened a year ago.
Christensen is gonna find his way off the roster and if Stepan can’t hack it with Gaborik then he should be sent down to get his confidence up.
Rozsival is a liability.
renney years… sounds like a mike and the machine song ;-)
agree with ya Mickey.
same old fu—in story.
frolov did not clear the puck on the 3rd goal, dz and roszival do the behind the net crap and bullseye.
frolov friigin sucks he has done zero. the guy cannot take a wrist shot.
fedetenko cannot even get a shot on net.
btw the officials suck like usual.. the chrostenson tripping double minor bullsh-t.
snd the sauer extra 2 after the capital guy stuck his knee out, but listening to the announcers you would think differently.
1 and 4 after being tied going into the 3rd.
todd white friigin sucks… again del zotto is an idiot with his back pass crap in a tie game.
what is so complicated about getting it out of the ZONE?????
If Gilroy’s playing for DZ, can we bring up Valentenko for Roszival? #33 makes me lose MY confidence. Can only imagine what he does to the team.
I told you all the other day, this four game home stand is the start of a four game losing streak
Why are the Rangers unable to chase down a puck? If they’re not going to chase it down, then don’t shoot it in. But they can’t carry it in either. Better offense than last year, but still not good enough.
They wasted Booger’s goal…
we wasted a goal by Booger tonight, shame on the Rangers
i think torts is a goner soon.
Ever since the media put Dublowsky and Stamkos in the same sentence, he hasn’t scored a goal.
But, Stamkos score two tonight. He now has 13 goals in 13 games.
Why the hell is Roszival practically standing, STANDING BEHIND the net on the third Caps goal? He is such goat Semin.
At least Greg won some money tonight. Congrats Greg.
Hugo you read my mind…hahaha
Rangers don’t know what they’re doing in a 6 on 5. Damn
MDZ has always had shaky defensive play, but his offensive skills have been pretty weak so far this season. His breakout passes and decision making have been atrocious.
And the game was lost by….Lundqvist.
And as long as he persists in dropping to his knees before the shooter even sets his shot, they will cook his goose over his shoulder.
It is this obstinacy in not making an effort to perfect the stand and face the shooter technique ,with the pads together, (a time honored technique by the way), he will always be a good goaltender instead of a great one.
It is the single most outstanding flaw in his game, even worse than his tendency to give away rebounds.
Every time I think I’ve seen an atrocious call by the refs, they out do themselves.
orr
why do you even post? you comments are moronic…sit henrik.. the erskine goal was a good shot…
put in biron becuase obviously he is better!!!!!
i wonder if orr is part of the love fighting crowd. boogard scored a goal on a moronic shot, he reached his quota for the 4 years. he does absolutley nothing to help the team….
the idea that there is a roll for the boogard is ludicrous, play him against hte flyers and some other caveman team and that is it.
so christenson is who he is a skilled woosie, frolov is slower then crap and cannot shoot, and fedetenko is a nothing…..white totally sucks he is small, and can’t skate…..
has Todd White played any games yet this season
Oh and I think Frolov and Fedotenko should watch one from the press box, no reason not to give Zuccarello a callup for the next game.
EC sucks.
yep, orr send dubinsky down he has not scored in 2 games.
really you are an idiot…
Amazing how fast this place can go from upbeat and funny, to depressing and sadly funny.
wow no reason for name calling folks
Fran – agreed. You’d think Benoit balls Allaire would address that first before other things.
Sire Father!
One good thing about the game being on versus…we didn’t have to hear about the disallowed goal ad nauseum.
I think I’m going to leave you guys for tonight. Try not to kill each other. And the team. Just try to realize who they played, how they played and who we are missing. Someone said it- last year we would be 5 games below .500
The goal by Erskine was not a good shot. It only appears that way because of the result. That goal cannot be allowed. Bottom line.
No player in LQ’s line of sight. A guy Erskine who only has 7 career goals. Cant allow that. Not a good shot. A good result for him, though.
you said it Mickey.
I thought if they could keep it tied until late in the 3rd, that we’d get a fluky goal and win. I was pretty optimistic tonight after seeing the first!
good point blue, but I’m sure Joe will be all over it on the pregame for the next game lol
Stuart, you do realize that New Yorkers are known for sarcasm, right?
And yeah, Hank should have been pulled after letting Erskine score. That wasn’t a good shot, that was just Hank being his usual self, never learning his lesson.
LMAO! Good shot. You wouldn’t know a good shot if it raped your eye socket.
trying to think positive here, but hopefully we have a strong second half to the season if:
1. Gaborik comes back and stays healthy
2. Drury takes Whites or EC spoke which is a plus
3. Prospal come back and can center Gaborik and Frolov and the line clicks
4. defense stops sucking
5. Henrik stops letting in a soft goal every game
6. Aves is Aves and plays with controlled edge
7. Torts learns to coach
then maybe just maybe we make the playoffs
I know what you mean Mickey, it’s just tough when it seems like we’re more up for the game than the team on the ice.
I can forgive this team much quicker than last year’s team because they are trying miles harder this year. They are obviously outclassed and outcoached, but most of the players are trying their best and coming up with some good effort. Good on Boyle for the career season he’s having.
Tiki- agree, stoppable shot. It didn’t lose us the game. MDZ’s pass behind the net to Roszival who was under the pressure immediately, did
ilb – Agreed. You’re right on both counts.
hopefully we have a strong second half to the season if:
WE FIRE SATHER!!!!
what is Aaron Ward smoking he keeps saying the rangers are a very potent team. Even with Gaborik in the line up I wouldn’t call us a very potent team
Gabby can’t help this team. We need Dreary more. The drama he brings is much needed.
well put Blue. We kept saying we’d rather lose with ‘the kids’.. well, we’re watching that now. We’re watching our core guys become a team, watching our young guys get the experience. I like the effort, I like how, most nights, they don’t give up. Guys like Boyle and Prust, who both worked hard in the offseason to improve. Dubi coming into his own, Cally being Cally…AA maturing…the education of Stepan..and on and on. Much more optimistic this season than last. Things have a way of working out, sometimes we just have to wait a bit to see the rewards of the labor.
N.CountryNYRFan says:
“2. Drury takes Whites or EC spoke (spot?) which is a plus”
Thiis phrase will never be uttered again on this blog!
ilb, don’t forget that the Rangers just can’t bury the goals they need to be burying. Too many open shots dinged off the crossbar or wide. Need a little more grace under pressure.
I was watching the Coyotes-Wings game last night, specifically Yandle’s goal, thinking that there was not one currently healthy player on the Rangers who wouldn’t have blown that shot.
>>has Todd White played any games yet this season
No, White hasn’t had a chance to play yet; he’s still stuck on Rice.
well at least Drury can kill on the pk and block shots. and yes i meant spot.
Linda nice post, I agree.
Here here, Linda. I wish there were even a few more kids up to replace a few of the ineffective rusty old vets, but I’ll take what I can get.
>>“2. Drury takes Whites or EC spoke (spot?) [spore] which is a plus”
I’d take Dreary over EC and/or White any day of the week. Those two are useless.
Frolov
Feds
EC
White
Booger
All useless. Don’t be fooled by Booger. Clearly he must have caught some kind of scoring disease from some star player. It will wear off soon.
Well said, Linda. That effort Aline will go a long way. Washington is going to seriously contend for the cup this year. Just look who we are dressing, folks. And they could’ve just win this game too. I’m willing to wait and I’m sure the wins will come. To me, this is the best sustained effort this team produced in years.
Frolov is terrible! I’ve watched his play with the Kings for some time. He has never looked this bad. He is clearly not in the shape he should be.
EC is another terrible player. If he was any good, do you think he would be put on waivers by three teams?
Fedetenko is another bum who got his deal and now he’s done his job. Stepan will never develop playing with these two losers.
Blowzy is not totally at fault on that goal. Shmolov failed to clear an easy puck. Mdz made a dumb pass and blowzy just stood there, waiting for the puck to come to him.
on a side note, I am really getting ticked off at Mdz. His home run pass crap is predictable now that opponents are just waiting for it to come to them.
Asa team, the biggest problem they have against a team like the Caps is that they take too long to decide what todo with the puck. Torts needs to work on this fast.
Well, N. Country, Drury blocks shots, yes, but I don’t think he does it very well, given how often he gets injured doing it. :-)
Oh yeah and Todd White is a joke. When will Zucc be called up.
wonder if del zotto didn’t make the team last year and spent a season in hartford, if he’d be a lil more rounded/better of a player.
zuccarello has a hat trick this season
MZA will come up when he’s tall enough to ride this roller coaster of a mess. You know like those cardboard cutouts they have at Six Flags or some amusement park that says “you have to be this tall to ride”? Maybe he can use Avery’s stilleto heels to fool the staff.
miked, not to ruin your buzz, but the trick came against the Sound Tigers…one of the few teams that are worse then the Whalepack so far…in a 7-1 game. Not saying it wasn’t a nice feat, but just saying…
Ha orr! You must be taller than the crossbar to play in this man’s league.
Something tells if MZA comes up and doesn’t score in two consecutive games, someone will call him Shmucarello and ask for his head to be sent back to Swedish league. Separately from his body.
Blue and Linda, well said on both your parts. We wanted this team, this very young team that is just not as skilled as the Caps or the Pens or anyone of the other top teams in the league, and well, we’re going to have nights like this. Nights where they play their collective behinds off and come up just short. Having Gaboirk tonight might have turned the game in their favor and having him later on in the year may very well win this team games they wouldn’t win without him in the lineup. At the same time, they are going to struggle and make mistakes and I, for one, am OK with. I like that I am seeing them being a team, sticking up for each other and growing together. I like seeing ‘the young core’ that Torts has talked about endlessly come into their own as players and as leaders. The future is bright, even if it hurts a little bit when they lose a game like this.
i’m sorry its hard to hear, but Drury will make this current team better when he is healthy. I’m not saying him alone is going to turn things around.
Wow, it’s not just the Rangers. Anybody see Joni Pitkanen nail the Edmonton Oiler in the mouth with the stick, leaving his jersey bloody…and not receive a penalty.
Blue, the officiating gets worse every freakin season. They make it up as they go along.
new post.
standard ranger crap, send down the 22 kennedy and keep white up. kennedy is lower cost and to bring him up will have to clear waivers while who the hell would want white. a small issue but just shows how the rangers are fools and make bad moves. the ood thing on all the players people seem to dislike; frolov, ec, fedetenko, white etc. the yall have 1 yr deals. next year roszival will be in his last year.
i like the fight and toughness of this team, just not enough scoring and skill. last 90 seconds could not even get in the zone, 2 man PP scored after the first guy got on the ice. also like the age of this team…avery is not that good, and prust also. play hard etc but soft on the puck in there own zone(both give up tons of turnovers) and both cannot score.
you need guys to score 15 goals not 5…..
