Just beyond the crack of noon.
Rangers close out their four-game homestand (1-2). They go to Pittsburgh’s new house tomorrow.
Henrik Lundqvist remains out with that flu/head cold. Martin Biron, who played so well on Thursday, gets the start in goal. Derek Boogaard is back in the lineup. Todd White is prucha’d.
(Special mention of Prucha with Tom Renney in the building; Here’s the link to the always-hilarious Tom Renney Line Generator.)

WOOOOOOOO LETS GO RANGERS!
BOOGAARD SMASH!
lmao, thanks for the link Carpy, that was always hilariously hilarious!
Everybody freeze!!! Nobody move!!!
remains out with the head cold/flu but was well enough to be out pimpin last night lol ;-)
LMAO “BOOGAARD SMASH!”
I loved that. That was great wasn’t it!
Kerry Fraser had some good stories.
That is hilarious! Please note that Prucha is a healthy scratch! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Rick, can you tell them they shouldnt score in the first period because I watch a soccer game out Allianza Arena until 1.20 pm your time…
Do you guys probably have heard about the F. C. Bayern München ?:)
Man, looking at our forward lines that year….....how the heck did we win ANY games that year, LOL
Not enough coffee in me yet to run back and forth so I’ll see you all in a bit. I hate 12:30 games!!!!!! They better win!!!
repost, in case you missed it!!
morning ILB and all!!!
Off to work shortly so another dvr’d game for the wicksters!
I can’t even express how sad the luke richardson situation is, best of luck to his family through this. I will say he played a tough game for a lot of years (remember when he knocked dubi out in dubi’s first fight??)
good for boogey!!
LGR!!!!
FIRE SATHER for the holidays…
nice Olga
Too many DVRed games for the wicksters. :(
CCCP shot me! Im down, call a wambulance!
everyone ,wallets in the front pocket,the Folkyerselfs are here.
give them the gift they’ll remember forever! kick them in a liver!
We are as honest as the day is long…
Did you notice how early it gets dark now?
today i wrote an article about Renney still communicating with Sather via email..really surprised to hear that Glen knows about working a computer :)
Afternoon, boneheads!
Let’s do this one, boys!
ooh read..hihihi
lets win this one for Renney!
What is happening to the Black Hawks? Maybe it’s time to bring up Jessiman…
hey hey ilbzo!
You bring up Jessiman, and I bring up breakfast.
Hey everyone! Posting from the game! Boys just came out on the ice!
Do it for the kids!
McIntyre and Boogaard are in? Nice for family day game
Awesome Beth! Have fun…and make the Rangers win please!!
Beth, tell them to start late :)
Hey, Beth! Careful with that bear, it’s dangerous at MSG
Have a great time Beth!!
Joekuh-
Look at the 05-06 roster, 100pts that year?!?
IMO Says something about Jagr, Hank and Renney.
good stories by fraser!
Snowing like crazy here…love it!
eminger’s 3 seconds of fame.
Well, I just found a knock on Tom Renney’s character. He had the audacity to compare Taylor Hall’s skillset to Mark Messier. “In another couple years, Hall has Messier written all over him.” No surprise that Joe M would repeat such a blasphemous statement.
between Boogy/BigMac and that bridge troll Stortini,the kids are in for a horror show!
Please dont throw any toilett paper on garden ice, which isnt good anyway:)
come on how crazy can you be as a fan of a team :)
Amazing anthem rendition today! Gives good vibes!
Oilers is a fast team. Whoever has more possession, will prevail
This start time fits in with my body clock OK. Tomorrow night…not so much.
beth
enjoy!!!
tiki
Yep, it sucks! CCCP shot you??
Hope Biron didn’t out think himself with a whole day of prep time!
who is this renney guy???
I’ll have to watch this one later on DVR. I have my own fùtbol match to attend to.
NYR should take those two points from Edmonton.
05-06 roster isnt that bad! Prucha with 30 goals ..Jagr with record setting stats… Hank with 30 wins!! not bad at all!
MDZ looked slow as hell there
SCCCCCCOOOOORRRREEEEE!
PERSISTENCE PERSONIFIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Welcome back, Gaborik! Firetruckers!
hey hey hey!!!!!!
Well, at least I get to see the 1-nil goal.
GABBAA GAABBBAAA GOAL!!!
watch out Flavah, Gabby’s gunnin for goals!!
wicky –
“CCCP says:
November 14, 2010 at 12:19 pm
Everybody freeze!!! Nobody move!!!”
Just a joke based off 3CP’s above post :)
sweet!!!!
later assens, work calls!!!!
goal rangers gabby..they shouldnt but they did :
tiki![]())
got it (a laurel…damn
an informative minute on the hirsuteness of the oilers
If Avery wacked at the puck one more time I think his shooting percentage would’ve hit negative numbers.
Anyone know how to watch the game on the computer. ATDHE.net is not pulling up the game.
try channelsurfing.net MD
Sather is garbage
http://atdhe.net/28310/watch-edmonton-oilers-vs-new-york-rangers
HEY SIS!
md, i was just able to pull up the game on atdhe… try that link
The ATDHE.net is working for me … make sure you download the plug-in
BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Is it me, or is Boogaard is skating a bit more fluidly today? Did he forget to put the skates on?
hiya Pimp!!
Linda, that worked!! Thanks a lot.
ILB!!!!!!!!!
How ya doing buddy!
He probably got over being sick. I think he had the flu too and that weird hand infection.
HAPPY RANGER SUNDAY!
you got it MD…sometimes they are not ‘awake’ for the start of the game lol
That pas was from Gilroy, Joe.
LMAO ” Too good of a goal scorer”
Goal scorers come here to die LOL
That was Gilroy with the pass. Not sure why he was so deep for so long though.
Heeey, bud!
lmao Mako, sad but true…hopefully Gabby breaks that trend lol
Mako – Since you and Lin are twins, and me and Lin are siblings, can you be my bro, too?
:)
Great effort and play by Gabby to clear the zone with that dive.
there ya go Gianone, get better glasses lol
LOL Indeed we can Tim – but please no kissing cousins ;)
Oh I think him and Jagr (sorry Wick) broke it ;)
dope
LMAO @ this Bud light commercial. The men were OUTTA THERE!!!!!
I WANT TO SHMOOPLIKATE!
Any mention of my future husband, Ja-Ja, is a worthy mention!
No kissing cousins, I swear!
Carp,
Has Renney ever seen the line generator?
wait, that also depends on who else Tim has as sisters…
I think if Vally was still with the team, LQ would be in net today in his condition.
lmao Mako, his condition had no effect on his pimpin last night ;-)
LOL LQ is always a pimp. I would LOVE for him to be my wing man ;)
Avery in for Frolov
Watching the Center Ice HD feed, which is from Edmonton… And so far, the Edmonton announcers are surprisingly decent. They’re being fair and mostly objective.
Mako, you dont NEED a wing man!
stOw, i’ve noticed that with some of the Canadian announcers when I can’t get the MSG feed
Does anyone know how old Taylor Hall is?
ill reiterate Linda’s comment. Mako is too hot to need a wingman. He is a wingman!
lmao LW, methinks today is his 19th birthday,but i better find out from Joe and John if that is correct
WOW what a weak call.
That was a love tap lol
weak call
weaaaaaaaaak
love tap from behind
argh!!
Awww thanks guys LOL
dont let edmonton score…dont let edmonton score
wonder if Edmonton is playing not to lose
woo hooo no goal scored by the opposition in the final minute!!!
courageous?
Good period. Can we have a few more goals?
I’m happy.
Chad Pennington of the Dolphins left the game after suffering an apparent arm injury. His return is questionable.
That didn’t take long.
That new material of their hockey socks makes them look they have blue nylons on :(
no kidding dde?
how do you guys put up with that horrible commercial?????
switch of the channel Linda. So many stupid commercials.
Looks like he got hurt on their first offensive play, played one more and came out.
oh man, i have to mute the stream whenever it comes on… grrr annoying goober
grrrrr silverlight feed just freakin died, on to the oilers feed… damn crap
lol Mako I saw that
phwew, just ressurrected itself!
one of the WORST is the commercial for the strip club VIP. other than these just horrible looking white trash h**kers and this disgusting fat bald idiot comes out gets right in the camera, shakes his hands and says “its absolutely INNNNNNNNNNSAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNEEEEEE” looks like he’s having a seizure. UGH.
thanks dde
lmfao Mako…pretty frightening eh
UGH horribly LINDA HORRIBLE!!!! =P
Pretty cool, I think they were letting a disabled kid ride on the Zamboni
tenko, he had rosy cheeks!
Yeah he was a really cute little guy :)
“Frolov tried to go between the legs…” Sam, please come back
:-) :-) :-)
Lord this team needs a play making center SO BAD
Darn…out of nowhere.
Geeeez Gilly
wtf????????????
What a revolting development this is…
Paging DEFENSEMEN….. PAGING THE DEFENSMEN…. that’s now about 12 goals that have been scored right in front of the goalie with the man going untouched.
Timeout?
ya just shake your head
Hey crap happens. They came back and had a strong shift. Torts will let them work out of it.
They arent getting out played at all.
Biron can’t let that second one in
I can hear it rattle from here, Linda… ;)
Need a timeout. Just checked back to hear Joe M lauding the Oilers’ movement for the 2nd goal, when in actuality, it was just bad luck. Thought it was 1-1, but instead, we’re down 2-1.
;-) Olga
WOW SO CLOSE!
We might be saying that enough to make it a contraction
crappens
oh man!
OH CALLY!!! why did you do that?
lol dde!!!
LET’S GO RANGERS!!
GAAAAAAAABBBBBYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Order restored!!
Heads Up, Gabby!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!
GABBA GABBA HEY HEY HEY
OOOOOOOHHHHHHHH man he went right into the post with his shoulder.
That was a thing of beauty
ORR’s favorite Ranger with an assist
Told youse. They arent getting out played.
Defense makes offense. Good play EC.
I think I pulled a groin watching that move
and now he’ll be out 12 more games damnit!
Boyleeeee!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
FLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVA!
YEH BAABY!!!
its a BB from BB!!!!!!
BB!!!!!!!!!!!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! MAH MAN!~
Now They’re Boylein’!!!!!
there’s my Flavah with is obligatory weekend goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you believe it- Boyle was asking for that pass?
So is that 3 points for Tenko with Gabby back?
3-2 Rangers?
would LOVE to see Gabby with the HAT!
Tiki,maybe you should be paying attention to the game eh
PRUSTIE WITH AN ASSIST! hehe, what a good looking goal that is!
LMAO @ Boyle’n!!
Linda
Love it when they score on the rush.
Flavah needs to keep pace with Gabby!!!
wow, that man looks like he has botox face!
Thanks for being smartalecky Linda. Watching a more important game. Following here for NYR updates.
So great to see scoring from other players
The Oilers D-men are almost universally brutal – there’d better be more goals in this.
any time Tiki
How many goals will Boyle score before he gets his first assist of the season?
PP TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lmfao JCL, guess we’ll have to wait for Prust to score his first for Boyle to get an assist lol
You think Gaborik is mildly important for this team?
LOL ILB – he is very but it was good to see other players step up like they should have. They didnt completely collapse. And they havent played bad at all during the stretch he was out :)
lol Linda! you’re a meanie! ;-)
Yes, Yes I am
AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTTTTIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
AA! 4-2
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTTTTIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
DOUBLE A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great pass
It’s great to see the Rangers take control in game they should control. In the old days, this kind of “should win” would be a loss.
Just turned the NYR game on! SCCCCCCOOORRRREEEEE!!!!!!
Joe M: “This could have been a 3-3 game first” Thanks Edmonton announcer Joe M.
That’s not a kicking motion.
It went off his skate, but he did not kick it. He tried putting it in with his stick.
damn they arent going to count that…..
hmmmm…
YIPPIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
PHEW
Right call. There was no distinct kicking motion. Wow, the refs brought their glasses along!
6 goals for AA, 8 for Flavah, 10 for Dubi
not too shabby
Yep good stuff there Linda.
Boyle is only 26 years old, too. That means he hasnt yet hit the prime of his career. If he continues working during seasons and offseasons, he could be a good 2nd liner. I wonder if Boyle is UFA or RFA after the year, or if he is still under contract after this year.
I hope Prust gets rewarded with a goal soon!
i guess ORR forgot it was an afternoon game lol
Boyle is an RFA after next season.
Orr hasnt been around in a couple days…
Prediction: Prustie scores goal 5 with an assist from Boyley.
Thanks bro Mako :)
boogaard on ice…lol… sounds like that old riunite commercial
boogard on ice,that’s nice
And after this season Drury’s salary drops down to $5mm against the cap =D
Anytime brother Tim ;)
Just woke up- always nice to see the Rangers holding a lead. Love watching them SCORE GOALS against Tom Renney who seems to have the same look on his face as he did the last time he was a coach here.
Morning Lin! lol
Mornin James! good to see ya here!!!
Morning James! Did you wake up to some whollly delicious McRibs?! HA!
The nice offensive display is showing Renney – “SAFE IS DEATH”
SCCCCCOOOOOORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FRIGGINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is that Frolov? Someone needs to help him with his underwear
FRRRRRRRROO??
lol nice to have Gabby back. Especially if he’s going to make Frolov play better!
FROLOV!!!!!!!!!!
This could be the start of a beautiful friendship!!!!!
OV OV OV OV OV!
I knew he’d come alive when Gabby came back!!!!!
Frigginsov with the goal! WELCOME HOME GABBY LOL
4 goals in a period, 4 different goal scorers.
TEAM!
al troutwig, master of the intelligent questions
Same result… different team eh Tommy?
LMAO @ “prolific period”. No carcillo!
They did exactly what they’re supposed to – Edmonton opened once they fell behind, and the Rangers are feasting on their mistakes
MAKO – not to put a downer on proceedings, but the Captain’s clutch cap hit remains at $7.05m next year. Just his take-home that falls to a miserly $5m.
lol @ miserly!
LW
you just ruined my Sunday.
lmao this commercial is funny
Ilb
Indeed they did. Its really special to see and really enjoyable to watch.
LW3H-yeah, but who counts? Hope you had a safe trip back home
uh, that was frolov
Did you notice that Frolov’s empty net tap in almost went wide? I’m sure that added to a fullness of his underwear.
So far, very visible smart workhorse Fedtank, very good playing Christensen (thanks to Gabby). Frol needed this goal, more than Gabby hat3ck (it still coming for him). Is Avery playing today?
Wohoooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!
BIG GAME !!!! My brother is crying!!!!hahahahahahahahahaaaa!!!!!!
ilb, if that did happen to go wide, he definitely would forever be known as the russian higgins lol
Boogaard- McIntyre kids show anyone?
Hmmmmmmmm getting a little chippy
If I was Torts, I would use Gabby sparingly this period.
HERE WE GOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
good idea Bro, dont wanna risk an injury with the chippiness quotient going up
and here we go
The real Higgins has 3 goals on 38 shots this year. That’s almost twice the rate he had as a Ranger (but still pretty useless). Shots wide don’t count as shots on goal, of course…
Why the EFF dont they take their helmets off
BOOGAARD SMASH!
WHOA
That was the most one-sided he’s had so far. Welcome to NY, Derek
started off kinda slow,then BOOM
thanks for that background John
think that other guy’s face got left with a Boogaard gash! That was a beating!
They are playing dirty. Paging Dr. Avery
I think I’d be in the hospital if he just threw tah elbow pad at me, lol. Those were some bombs
WTB Gabby got that penalty?
wow.. that is not cool
well, dont interfere, but slewfoot all ya want boys
Not a sniff on that PP
Great to see Renney’s PP sucking.
friggins tryin to get fancy now lol
ilb – i think id be in the hospital if Boogie just looked at me!
“The Wonder of it All” = amateur-hour
Gonna be a great game tomorrow!
who’s tomorrow?
Edmonton is atrocious in their own zone
Joe M: “Torts hasn’t said a bad word about Frolov’s game all year”
Er, really?
Cindy and the dancing birds
the pen ()s
HERE WE GOOOOOOOOOOO AGAIN!
ROUND 2
had to put my drink down for round 2
lol, already used, but….i hope the pen()s dont come early tomorrow.
oh man if boogie landed that one the guy’d be out
That was almost like Rocky with simultaneous KO’s
they really ought to make a rule that both fighters must take their helmet off and throw them to the ice prior to fighting.
LOL Linda I was thinking the same thing. We would have seen an ORResque KO
Mako, he just missed that! boogie got rocked a couple of times, but man, that one would have been lights out
I knew a guy with 5 pen()ses. I asked him “How do your shorts fit?”
He said, “They fit like a glove…”
lmao Mako, Gabby being double shifted
lmao Olga
biron did not look pretty there but got the job done
yes it would have been. I dont like that they dance with their helmets on… they have to take them off.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
NOT IN OUR HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AVERRRRRRRY!!!
Avery’s getting an extra 2?
BOOGAARD BOOGAARD!!!!!!
is that a natural hattrick when somebody fights the same player for the third time in one period ?:)
Damn I think he hurt his hand?!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME WE MISSED A BRAWL!!!!!!!!!
WTB
effin commercials!!! what the hell…......
HOLY HELL AVERY KNOCKED HIM OUT!
taht dude needs to get suspended…
WOWOWOWOWOWOWO~!!
TORTS EVEN GOT IN THERE!
peckham needs to be suspended,
boyle with the headlock!!! love it
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!!!!
Peckham should get suspended!!!!!!!!
WOW guys i love the rangers with all my heart but thats an embarassing play by #16…no reason for that
How timely I mentioned Avery?!
WHATS GOING ON???
What did Peckham do????
Did any of our guys get hurt??????
WOW did Avery POP that kid
How much time’s left???? I hope we dont lose this game because of Special teams.
What did Avery do? Whatever he did, Im proud of him!
Ol’ Time Hockey!!
Nice family game today TEEHEE! >:}
God, I miss bench clearers.
insanity! there should not have been 8 oilers on the ice during a tv time out to begin with
My lip-reading skills aren’t great, but looked like Smid said “Let’s go” to Avery at least twice and he was clearly ready to drop his gloves. Can’t wait for Avery to get crucified in the Canadian press regardless.
and then that guy going after dubinsky on the bench…
I dont know what’s so “embarrassing” about what Avery did?
exactly LW… the kid wanted to go, he did not look like he was lettin up
FROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLOV!!!
2 for Frolov
FRIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGGGINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Personal Stat Day
it might be time for a new name for him lol
Frol compete with Gabby for hattrick?!
HAHAHAHAH TENKO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fedotenko! Will it count this time? :)
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! TENKO
well deserved Fedo!!!!!!
They are beating them of every conceivable level. FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!
Eat it, Professor Renney.
This is one of the most bizarre and amusing games I’ve ever seen….
this game is hilarious and somewhat old school lol
Double FF Pucks bag get untied…
HATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTIE FOR GABBY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WELCOME HOME BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHHOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Hattrickgaborik
WEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
what a freakin INSANE day!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah, SWEET 16!!!!
OMG, I can die now in peace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mako-
he took a cheapshot @ SMID for no reason….either drop the gloves like a man or walk away…..then when the ref tells you to get off the f——ice get off the ice! and stop babbling! im not defending the morons on the oilers that attacked dubi on the bench and the refs definitely need to do a better job getting avery off the ice but there was just no reason for it….a nice hit in the corner by AVES and then he takes a cheap shot for no for no reason!
Wohooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
GO RANGERS!!!!!!!
WTB!!!!!!!!
Time for Gabby to sit down for the remainder?
The kids in the audience may never see a game like this again. Hope it’s not their first. Disappointment next time.
i hope we’re not crying for a goal tomorrow night lol
yeah, that’s a Renney team for sure. a loser that quits when the going gets tough
We just exploded today. Premature explosion with the pen()ses coming to town tomorrow?
Lmao, Gabby might catch boyle by the end of the week
Best part: this is all a response to going down 2-1. Nice.
Smid dropped his gloves. Do you blame Avery for being faster?
I knew it. Frol, what is you answer, hah?
just lost the stream damnit
If a player is chirping at you “lets go” in my book that’s an invitation, if you cant back up your words then dont say them. Talk the talk … walk the walk. And if you didnt see there was an oiler player who tried to go after him when he skated off of the ice. So what… you not allowed to defend yourself?
Seth – agree Avery should just get off the ice, but why is it a cheapshot when Smid wanted the fight?
Linda did you alarm go off? Mine did ;)
Ok Torts can you PLEASE keep Gaborik off of the ice!
lmao mako, you know it did
sons a bitcheees what am i missing?
And Smid is listed as 6-3, 226lbs. Or two inches taller and 26lbs heavier than David Clarkson, for those Chicos scoring at home.
And youThis line produce like 5 – for 3 average games. Who’s next to score – Biron? I feel kinda drunk.
nothing much
besides being a microsoft product, what the hell is wrong with silverlight?
what were the penalties? did they ever announce them?
So Cally was hit from behind no call but the AA call was ok to call?
Marty Biron will have 3 wins this season. That is great.
Mako-i hear what ur saying but when he turns away for that split second and then avery lands one IMO its a cheapshot and with his history for not going directly to the locker room i would expect him to be suspended for a game or two-we will see….either drop them right away or walk away dont wait for that split second of an open window….listen im not defending the reaction of the oiler players either…...we will take the 2 pts and get ready for manana, torts press conference shall be interesting to say the least
exactly Mako. i’m worried about these hits to his head lately

everybody loves MDZ lol
emotionless too professional Gabby slightly vinegars my glee
He’s not going to get suspended. Peckham should get suspended for coming off of the bench standing next to his goalie to go after him. Big deal.
Again if your calling for someone to fight you then you pay attention. That’s like admiring your pass or keeping your head down when you receive CLEAN hard check to you.
Gaborik = the Elegant Assassin !!!!!
What an absolutely fantastic game!
mako, they’ll say he forced whitney and peckerham to go after him and suspend him for a game or two
Hello again Ranger Fans! I couldn’t miss this opportunity to welcome my first love, The Edmonton Oilers, back to The World’s Most Shameless Arena. Speaking of shameless, did you all buy your $395 Heritage Jersey yet? Do it today, your Uncle Glennie is going to need his Eighth Place Bonus Money…
Mess! Hey Messier! Look down at the bench. Who is that guy coaching our Oilers? I know I’ve seen that guy somewhere before… We should look in to getting him to replace Torts.
Wow! Did you see Keenan jump up like that? I thought he was asleep, but as soon as I said “replace Torts” look at him just sitting there, smiling!
What in Holy Hell? I haven’t seen this many Edmonton Oilers on Madison Square Garden ice since the ‘94 Finals… With all my trades, THAT was my first Cup win for New York. At least that’s what I told Dolan…
AAAUUUGH!! I’VE JUST SEEN THE FACE OF DEATH! Oh. Phew… It’s only Muckler! Muck, what did I tell you about sneaking up on me like that! You know it really creeps me out! I swear, I’m gonna make you wear that cowbell again. Or a bag…
I was rooting for both teams today. So, I win 10-0!!
Forever yours, Ranger Fans.
Uncle Glennie has left the building…
where was the penalty on Fraser? he was the guy who reached over the boards and grabbed Dubi and caused a lot of the ruckus around the bench.
Great Job by Biron! Love that he’s on the team – great back up for LQ!
and how are there no game misconducts on the oilers?
My, wasn’t that fun! Note to self—Edmonton stinks, so don’t get ahead of yourself. Nice to hear from Uncle Glennie, a true Edmontonian.
I love how Renney kept Khabibulin in the whole time.
Nobody has to pay the $395 to buy the jersey. It’s not mandatory. It’s a choice. Nothing shameless about it.
i just hope we’re bringing the AAAA game tomorrow night.
when i hit the lottery, there are several boneheads i’ll be buying jerserys for lol :-)
a fitting reward for Renney. he left here as a blowout loser, and he returns in the same fashion.
Linda
I hope so too… The Pens are starting to get their sheeet together.
you’ll be hitting the lottery in January, mark it down! can i get a Messier jersey?
Oh and they showed the replay again. And Smid dropped the gloves the same time as Avery but Avery got them off quicker. That’s hockey folks.
Maloney: “if you ask for it… you better be ready when it comes”
Thank you and good night. Case closed.
Mako-maloney totally agrees with you, basically said exactly what you said in different words…IMO i disagree so lets leave it @ that, 2 pts move onto pitt
Fantastic game guys and girls. It was a pleasure watching it with you all.
Until tomorrow.
Its not he agrees with me. Its the code. When you play, you know these things.
Ok Im out.
Exactly Mako. Smid also seemed distracted and glancing down the ice. Bad time to look away… The action was right in front of him.
Wow! Back at Penn waiting for a train after an incredible game!! Couldn’t have asked for more!!
I don’t see anything wrong with the way Avery conducted himself. That was a 100% clean hit to start it all off, the Edmonton player had the puck, dished it, and got crushed by Avery with a hard, legal hit. So far so good. Smid isn’t a noted fighter, but is no stranger to fisticuffs, judging by his fight card on hockeyfights.com. He looked for Avery, they both dropped their gloves, and Avery cleaned his clock while he stood there and took it. Of course Avery is going to yap on his way out the door, it’s Avery. But Edmonton was clearly embarrassed about the way they were getting beaten, on the scoreboard as well as physically, and wanted to try to regain some self-respect. Which also failed miserably as Boogie pounded MacIntyre twice, Stortini hardly got the best of Prust, Dubinsky had to fight from the bench, and then the Rangers scored 3 more goals. If I’m Edmonton, I go cry in my beer
Beth, rich guy leave his jersey behind??? please say yes lol
Did Biron pick his nose just as he said Boogie?
I’d love to hear Renney in the post-game press conference…”Well, it’s always nice to get back to the east coast…”
Uncle Glennie!!!!!
MAKO, I’m with you and Maloney. And Smid seemed pretty aware from what I could see. I’m not looking at this thru orange-colored glasses, I’d say it if it were anyone. But Peckerham gets nothing for going after Aves when he’s not even on the ice?
hey, the whole melee was certainly amusing to watch, but also silly.
all in all, tho, a lovely afternoon!!!!!!!
No jersey Lin :(. I opted for a cally tshirt instead
So what’s Gabby’s problem in the shootout? He scored on 2 breakaways. Maybe he has to pretend that somebody is chasing him like Shanahan used to do.
Ok, I can not figure out how was Avery being called for a cheap shot. They both dropped their gloves and Avery went to him and hit him. It was not as if Smid turned around and Avery punched him from behind.
I hope the vid (which I am sure it will) will be posted soon, so I can look at it again.
I still do not understand how the Rangers received more misconducts over the Oilers????
Avery did nothing wrong. I didnt see it, but I dont care what Avery did. He was in the right!
All the Oilers involved got 5 minute fightings and 10 minute misconducts.
Great, entertaining game. Did exactly what good teams do- took advantage by opposing team’s bad defensive coverage. Good for Frolov, it may jump start his offense. And EC looked alive.
It never feels easy defending Avery, as he clearly does a lot of indefensible stuff (he should cut out throwing punches at players who are down on the ice, for one thing).
But he can’t win in a situation like today’s. Someone a lot bigger than him clearly challenges him after a clean hit. If he turns it down, the Chico brigade accuse him of not defending himself. If he accepts and catches the other guy who doesn’t appear to be as prepared as he should be, he’ll still get crucified.
And while he should just get off the ice after that, I still don’t get why professional players (I’ll be nice and call Peckham a professional) get so steamed up at the nasty words the nasty little man says to them.
great post LW!!
oh yea, DING DING MAKO
Renney hung a Ranger goalie out to dry in Dallas. Today he hung his goalie out to dry in New York.
What a great way to motivate players! What a coach!
Gravey, I’m with you. And this wouldn’t be debated half as much if it weren’t Aves, naturally. If you’re gonna get chippy and start things, be prepared to finish. Whatever, we won, it was a raucous game, and I don’t have the Sunday afternoon blues cause I don’t have to work tomorrow! Silver lining!!!!
Great post Mama! LMAO @ Peckerham! HA!
ha! thanks tiki! I’m surprised nobody else came up with that first :)
Includes the Avery punch from different camera angles
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNeERJeDnRM
the guy got knocked the fugg out by Avery! Booohoo… dont challenge players if you’re not ready to get some!
Fun game to watch! We beat the worst team in NHL! Welcome back, Tom Renney!
What a shame, they haven´had the third fight in one period…..
I know you guys are very high on statistics but is there a stat about two same guys fighting each other in one period in the NHL ?:)
Why do Canadians and the Canadian press spend so much time worrying and fussing about Avery, when NHL rosters are filled with other guys who do the exact same thing? Amazingly hypocritical.
tiki, it was mentioned earlier
i think it was mako who mentioned it
Had to watch the game on DVR. I had to take Del Puggo to the vet for something I thought was minor, but it turns out he’s literally 5 days away from death. $2000 for surgery!
But, this game was fuggin awesome!!
Probably will end up being the best home game of the year.
Loved the Avery punch too. That was hilarious. And finally we saw vintage Booger!
Too bad the game had to end. So enjoyable!
Del Puggo? is that a cat or a dog? and sorry to hear about your pet being sick, ORR
JETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TAKE THAT PHIL PATRIOTS SIMMS AND JIM PATRIOTS NANTZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He’s a dog. A Puggle, [half pug, half beagle] which is why I decided to name him Del Puggo, after Del Z.
is he an old dog? you also have a cat, right?
Del Puggo is a cat. Sorry to hear about your pet, Orr. I hope he feels better soon.
Linda, oops. didnt see it earlier, but it was you that mentioned it. LOL! :)
oops Orr. thought you had a cat, my bad.
Hey all! I know i’m late to the party but WHAT A GAME!!!
Here’s my 2 cents on the Avery situation. He didn’t immediately engage… but both players were aware of what may come down…. Smid took a swipe with his stick, Avery had some words… and then best I can tell, both guys threw down the gloves, Avery was moving forward while Smid was moving back, and Avery nailed him right on the button.
IMO not a cheap shot cuz the guy was looking at him. All started after a CLEAN hit. Don’t take your eyes off a guy you instigate a fight with. That’ll teach Smid a lesson. I don’t have a problem with it… not everyone gives the guy 5 minutes to get his gloves off, take his helmet off, roll up his sleeves etc.
AVERY DROPPED THE BOOM BABYYYYYYYY!
Through all this, nobody has asked the simple question: What kind of name is Smid?
Gaborik – 3 games played 3 goals. Welcome back!
Boyle- the guy just keeps doing his thing.
Artie- gonna be a damn solid player.
Staal- laying people out all day long.
Feds- finally ones that count!
Frolov- bout damn time!
Would have liked to see Stepan get going again, and for Dubi to pop one in… but we got a brawl out of it, and Boogey did his thing too.
No, he’s young. Only aboot three years old.
He has some stones in his bladder. That literally just started hurting him yesterday, and it’s blocking him from taking a piss, and he can’t even drop a brash*t. He’s crying, and shaking. I didn’t think it would be so serious, but apparently it is.
The most disturbing part was when the Vet put his finger up his poop loop, and the dog didn’t make any noise. I’m guessing he liked it.
ORR, I hope your puppy is ok. $2000 for surgery! YIKES!!!
ORR, I am sending good thoughts for Del Pug…...money’s worth it honey. You wouldn’t deny a kid surgery right? I spent $3G on Zamboni before he died (but he was 18)...you’ll do the right thing my him, I know.
MAKO, kudos, guess I missed the um, peck post….:)
Gift….LOVE YOUR POST!
Yeah, I have no problem with spending that kind of cash to get him better. Although, if the dog has the same problem again, then I’m going to have to find this Vet, and pull his bladder out and feed it to him.
Or I’ll throw him in the backseat of Heatley’s car :P
that’s horrible Orr. Del Puggo is lucky to have you :)
ORR, maybe you need to change vets….or just Avery the current Smid :)
GAB, when’s the big day??
tiki, 4:50 post was hilarious :)
Can’t change Vets at this point. He’s scheduled for surgery for tomorrow. Plus he’s in a ton of pain, so I wouldn’t want him to have to deal with that just because I’m not happy with the price.
Anyway. With a game like this one, I can’t believe Step-On couldn’t pop one in. I thought both he and Gilly were set to score. I think he got one off the post, but I could be wrong.
He really needs his mom to come to his games. It’s like he’s a baby!
ORR, let us know the results tomorrow. My heart is with you and DP :)
OK all, been a great day! I’m off unless I need to wicky later :)
Maybe it was me, but did anyone else notice Maloney was at times unintelligible during that postgame?
someone tell Smid…You mess with the bull, you get the horns!
the only reason the non-ranger fans and oilers are crying is because its Avery. i can name 50 guys in the league who would do the same thing if they were clever enough to think of it.
Smid: C’mon, lets go
Avery: Wait
Smid: Umm, ok
Avery: POWWWWWWWWWWW!
Smid is a moron!!!! Not to mention, it looked so bad because he got scared carcillo-less and tripped over himself trying to run away. Avery scared him so bad i bet he pooped himself.
I watched the video of it again and it seems that Smid had ample time to react to Avery. Avery skated towards Smid and Smid skated backwards. Why is’nt anyone complaining why Smid who is bigger and also wearing a visor challanges a smaller player not wearing a visor??
If you ask me, he is more of a wuss, take off your helmet if you going to challenge someone not wearing a visor to a fight.
Brian Boyle is FINALLY starting to look like a first round draft pick.
To me, it looked like Aves was waiting to see what happened with the play before he dropped the gloves, and Smid just wasn’t ready, which is his fault.
Or Aves did it on purpose to throw him off :P
It was great though. Best punch Aves has ever thrown!
Loved that game! I hope we see more of that kind of Booger. I love that he didn’t back down at all, despite the big lead.
As great as this game was, you can’t get too excited, since we just destroyed the worst team in the league. NYR needs a nice streak though.
And I will give EC credit for a nice offensive game tonight. Good passing.
Dubiiii, Gravey, tank, ORR…..mama love! Ta all! Can’t wait for Carp’s recap tomorrow!!!
from Ranger Rants:
“Peckham explained that Smid asked Avery to fight and Avery said next shift before dropping his gloves and dropping Smid.”
Hey all! Finally home after that amazing game! Some pics and video up on my facebook
ddeb, well, since Smid and Peckum said that it must be true :) thhhpptt. oh, that is priceless…everything is explained now! Blech…...I’ll see you tomorrow all! SWEEEEET 16!!!!
Ta!
Nice camera work Beth! glad they won for ya!
lol, i now have the football game that sam’s calling
this will be my desktop wallpaper for a while i think:
http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/games/2010111413/gallery;_ylt=Auj4F2aC.61OZauBI3aQLLcrvLYF#photoViewer=urn%3Anewsml%3Asports.yahoo%2Cgetty%3A20050301%3Anhl%2Cphoto%2Cf1e600231ae490aca6be3fd3ac9407eb-getty-103043383pb011_edmonton_oil%3A1
The Trasher/Craps score sheet says Little scored his 2nd goal of the season. I could have swore he scored two against NYR. Is that right?
And screw Smid. He’s probably making excuses. Aves usually knocks people out with his comments, not his fists. Total embarrassment. Smid is trying to save face.
Avery is being deemed a cheap shot artist….Edmontonian’s are freakin out!!!!
Great game and who said we didn’t need Boogaard!!!??? Boogaard is a beast and after today I’m even a bigger fan!!!
I wish Booger can do that every single game. I like him better when he’s in the box. The darkness of the penalty box goes well with the darkness around his eyes and in his black hellish heart :P
He just doesn’t look right when he’s skating around. It’s like Will Ferrell trying to be serious. It’s just wrong on so many levels.
Dubiiii, I am so clipping and saving that! Awesome! and worth the wicky….hmmm. Smid sure doesn’t look “shocked” or “surprised” there…..Dubi, great find!!!
would love to be on the Rangers plane tonight…..
OK, enjoy all. I’m outta here for real….thanks again Dubiiii! Ta!
sigh. triple wicky…ORR and Greg, I’m with you, too. Boo hoo Edmondtonians :( Hartnell you Smid!
niters!
My goodness, that’s like 1000 wickys.
I am so tired of inadequate NY coaching. Just buffoons.
tiki, 1,001…..grrrrrrr. :)
Dubiii-
They’re some cool pictures. Those of Prust, especially pic #18 should get taken down. It just ain’t right.
Mama- lol you’re too funny
Giants coaching, with a sprinkle of anti-Giants refereeing cost us this game. This was a winnable game, even when we were down 20 points, and our coaches threw away this game.
im not sure what this loser matt dodge is still doing on this team. this is a championship caliber football team with perhaps the worst special teams in football. This loser matt dodge costs us so many yards of field position.
Dez Bryant was clearly out of bounds when he gained possession. Call should be overturned. But it wont be. Im sure of it.
Far from over
i know it’s far from over ddebened.
but now it’s over.
Kevin Boss wasnt guilty of a hold. The referees are guilty of what they’re always guilty of. Cheating New York.
Cheated again.
Cant blame us. Forget the terrible coaching and lack of balls from Tommy C. This was the referees. They stole away our touchdown to pulling with 6.
Referees with another win over a New York team.
Team “Referees” have more wins over New York teams in the history of sports. More than any other team.
Occam’s razor
Was up in sect 327 and I gotta say there are some real Ranger fans in the making !!!! I had this kid next to me couldnt of been more than 7-8 and I yelled out ” Welcome back Renney ” to which this kid screams at the top of his lungs ” RENNEY SUCKS ” I almost peed myself. Then I thought it kinda reminded me of me ;) Shouldve given his parents some tickets so the kid could get there more often after all if we dont nurture our youth, what can we look foward too?
These young Rangers fans are ruthless. I was at a NYR vs NYI game at the Mausoleum two-three seasons ago. And someone said “Go Isles”, and some kid said “Fishsticks are gonna die tonight”
And his dad was so proud.
Avery went on to score two goals in a 5-2 win, I think. Great game.
No penalties to take away turnovers. No pass interference. That cryptkeeper referee made the decision in this game that he wasnt going to allow us to win this game.
We had 8 official penalties in the game. There were at least 5 declined penalties. Worst team in football Cowboys gets 3 or 4 penalties. At the Meadowlands. A crying shame a sport. A sport, like every other, driven and influenced greatly by referees.
Sean “Quick Draw” Avery!
I do feel bad for the kid on the receiving end of his punch. But, how do you challenge someone to a fight and not be ready to, um, fight?
Avery out smarted Smid, but I think he also broke the code of fighters. the heavyweights would not sucker each other. I have no problem with what Avery did, Smid let his guard down, and Avery popped him. this is very similar to the Carciilo and Gabby fight. fighters do not take on non fighters. boy I have contradicted myself a few times there.
by the way, anybody notice Gilroy playing on the wing in the 3rd period. did not look out of place. Orr may be right on this one, he has been calling for this since last season.
Check out Tomas ‘Tommy Gun’ Kundratek at 3:10 wow
Also Redden and Newbury fights
http://www.youtube.com/user/ConnecticutWhalers#p/u/5/qfsDKDmI8-E
if that’s slow it’s also up on snyrangersblog.com
bull dog – Smid isn’t a “non-fighter” though. He’s fought before and was clearly the one offering to go.
If Avery did say “next shift”, it’s hardly a good reason for Smid to drop his guard. And he clearly didn’t turn his back like Peckham stated.
who cares what Avery did??? He’s our player, he did what he had to do, he put some little tiny piece of dirt Smid in his place. He taught him a lesson. Team toughness. Our guys stood by one another, and Avery did what he had to do. Bottom line. No Rangers fan should be on Avery’s case. We should all be applauding him for doing what needed to be done.
Kurt
I sit in 417 and I can beat that. In the 3rd period as Elmo made his way around the lower level of the Garden, a little girl in the row in front of us (I’d say about 10 years old) bellows out ‘Elmo Sucks’ and then, just for good measure, makes a megaphone out of her hands and yells it even louder. Her mother, sitting next to her, turns, smiles and pats her on the head. What a country.
Damn, Kundratek killed that guy.
By the way, nobody should refer to what Aves did as a “sucker punch”. This is a sucker punch. Look at the difference between this and what Aves did.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Y7_iGqQ5ks
Even if Aves did say “next shift”, Smid stuck around, and looked like he wasn’t giving him an option. And Smid had his eyes on him the whole time, and they were face to face, for the most part. To me, it was clean, and far from a sucker punch.
Lin…. the 24th is the big day!
Smid got embarassed… plain and simple. He went looking for it… and he got it. Right on the jaw!
And the Steelers are doing what they do best versus the Patriots. Lay down and roll over.
Gift of Gab…Im still waiting on my invitation ;-)
Im also still waiting for my best man invitation to Derek Jeter’s future wedding. Should be here any day now :P
NEW POST
new post.
Tiki-
again i am a diehard ranger fan….i bleed true blue but Tiki-he did what needed to be done? this was not a retaliation for a hit on gabby or for running into biron or for some history avery had with smid…it was IMO (and i know im outnumbered here a bordeline dirty play/cheapshot by avery) you either drop the gloves right away like the heavyweights did or u dont drop them at all….it was 5-2 in a non-rival game….i mean we might not see the oilers @ the garden until 2012!!!! there was 12 min left to go and i think it was relatively stupid…if the opposition was a team in the eastern conference we would be discussing how we are going to defend gabby the next time around….im not saying bow down to other team but smid came over to defend has teammate and avery (After a clean hit) should drop em right away or skate off….
