It goes without saying, but I’ll say it anyway: This game is pretty Byfuglien pivotal. Home ice. No Crosby or Malkin. It’s time to make hay.
Eminger back in the lineup. Del Zotto prucha’d. Godard to begin serving his automatic 10-game suspension for coming off the bench during the Pens’ brouhaha against the Islanders.
Play nice and enjoy the game. I’ll put up the postgame notes later, then hand the keys back to Carp.

LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks, and great job for holding down the fort this week sir!
Great job also by CW and CT on their game reviews!!
Heads Up!
[I missed it by thatmuch!]
consider the podium shared JB
3-1 Rangers win
BOOM
I’m back, so Rangers will get a streak going.
McCreary has never considered this a job….no wonder why he sucks so much! :-)
ORR, where the heck have ya been? Sabbatical in the wilds of PA??
I blacked out for a few weeks and woke up naked in the woods.
Everything is a blur!
Here’s what probably will go wrong today.
1. Rangers will lose another defensive battle because, you know, Gaborik’s shoulder is still hurting.
2. Buffalo will beat Islanders.
3. Carolina and Atlanta will play a three point game.
“I blacked out for a few weeks and woke up naked at Tiger Woods’.”
Anyone know where a college kid living in the middle of Flyer country with no MSG or NHL Network can watch this pivotal game?
In watching the pre-game and all the talk of Islanders -Penguins and how Campbells Colin is doing this and doing that , where does the sucker punch by Stall on Prust come up NEVER because of Buttmans man crush and then the comment by the whiner Mario. Hey wake up Mario your team is right in it with sausage lips. Call a spade a spade
Try http://atdhe.me/, yergs.
If I woke up next to Tiger Woods, then it’s safe to assume there would be tons of porn stars.
Or if it’s Charlie Sheen, then it’s porn stars, cocaine, and a massive collection of porn.
Let Prust loose on Buttman and Campbell
If you woke up next to Tiger and your Bettmen was sore and wet the you know you were definetly done in by a BIG WOOD
LGR!!
just finishing watching the double header between Michigan and Ohio State. I love how they play a home and home friday and saturday in college.
Michigan takes both, 3-2 and 2-1, ending their 3 game losing streak. Hagelin had 3 assists in the pair! I hope that he is playing with Gabby next season!!! He makes such amazing passes. check out his pass at about the 1:30 mark to set up the gwg:
http://www.mgoblue.com/allaccess/index.html?media=228863
and LGR!!!!!!!
Here we go guys, a well officiated, unbiasly ref’d hockey game.
FIRETRUCK….... penguins announcers…what sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit
possibly discussed early
but you really need to see lemieux’s hypocritical statement in
regards to his tough guy getting suspended
http://blogs.northjersey.com/blogs/rangerrants/comments/bombshell_statement_from_penguins_lemieux/
i have the tv on mute, and listening to our guys on the radio…
thanks orr!
Linda – me too (as usual). Keep watching. There’s still a risk of debris from the MSG ceiling falling on the pair of them during the game.
Afternoon gang!
Pens broadcast? YUCK.
WIN THE BYFUGLIEN GAME!
>>If I woke up next to Tiger Woods, then it’s safe to assume there would be tons of porn stars.
It could also mean that Tiger was drunk and decided to, er, “try something new”.
pure torture LW. i muted it and went to the Rangers website to listen to the radio cast lol. I give you a ton of credit for watching the games while your ears bleed.
Penguins owner: ”...those kinds of actions are unacceptable and embarrassing to the sport”
Penguins announcer going through tonight’s line-up: “You remember that left hook by Staal last time out!”
Pens’ announcers proudly reminiscing Staal’s left hook on Prust
These guys are despicable
The whole franchise is despicable, Mario on down
YAY JOHN AMIRANTE!! hilarious
lmfao game started on tv…....AMirante is still singing the national anthem on the radio!!
too bad their bus didnt fall off a cliff eh LOL
I KID I KID!!!
Oooohh, Heritage Jerseys. Curse, anyone?
lmfao mickey i was just thinking that!
and you’re right lol
jfc
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here we go…rupp attack
Does everybody still want Eminger playing? Bwhaha! What a joke!
Amazing.
Eminger! Wtb
WHYYYYYYYYYYYY???
I’m starting to get whiny about this team and I don’t like that. :(
They need to capitalize on this Salty Dupuis penalty.
Maybe Rangers defencemen having the digit 4 in their jersey number suffer from a Greshner curse?
Staal should NOT be on the PP.
And neither should Girardi.
Three PP goals says he should
season over
Seriously, this team is going down hill.
.....
speechlesss
its too nice of a day for me to waste sitting here watching this friggin mess
why
I’ll take my soft serve with colored sprinkles, please.
Time for Torts to get his red face on.
McDonogh beat all the way from the blue line to the net :(
Why isn’t Lundqvist joining the timeout?
Nick Johnson sounds like one of those scrub WWF wrestlers you knew were going to get their assens kicked. I’m really glad I sold my tix to this game.
This team SUCKS! Time to start selling…
Linda, I’m with you on that. it’s 60 degrees here today.
THANK YOU
oh look. a goal. yay?
season revived
yay….
thats my man!!!!!!!!
OK, we’re going to hear about the timeout called by Tortorella.
pens announcers said “boyle has had trouble putting the puck in net”.
uhhh really?
Yay!
Lot of game left
Boyle!
alrighty then…wtg Boylesy!!!
>>McDonogh beat all the way from the blue line to the net :(
He had a hard time with the puck at the offensive blue line.
lmfao @ Kevin great post lol
I’m only going to see the 1st period, then I have to put this on pause. They better tie it up so my appetite isn’t ruined.
the Pens scrubs were embarrassed and beat up by the Isles. now Boyle’s nice goal may turn things around, because before that, it was total embarrassment for the Rangers.
BBBBBBBBBBB!!!!!!!! Man I love being at MSG for a game! LGR!
Michael Douglas’ daughter dragged him to a hockey game. Bwaha! Awesome. I hope she’s a Rangers fan.
funny thing is Rangers have been the much better team so far. Zuccarello looks really good so far.
Great faceoff, wrister, tip-in
Nice to see Michael Douglas with his great grand daughter
manbearpig on the ice…glack
Is atdhe actually working for anyone?
Ani needs about 10-15 pounds of muscle
what is letampon complaining about
‘Atta boy, Aves…
i know this will not be a popular comment but
is Hank going to spend the entire game on his stomach??
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
season alive
That’s why I like Girardi on the point. Nice tip by Cally.
And that’s how u score on PP
Clean slate! 2-2! Assist to Avery for drawing the penalty.
holy crap i might get my trifecta today!!! LETS GO PRUST! LOL
these pens announcers are more slanted/biased than fox news…
The valueless Avery…too bad this ppg won’t show up in his stats
“Nice to see Michael Douglas with his great grand daughter”
You sure it’s not his wife?
we have ourselves a wild one!
nice LW, i was thinking that but not quick enough on the typing lol
I agree about Girardi on the PP. he shoots the puck with his head up, looking for tips and screens, he does not wind up and blast it wildly
Michael Douglas should have brought his son to MSG when Dredden was on the team. They could have talked aboot drugs.
Can’t do it now, since his son is in jail, and Dredden is in hockey jail.
I would love nothing more than to punch these two homers in the larynx. These announcers should be ashamed of themselves. Funny how Lemieux is all up in arms with the way the Isles game was called, when they have Matt Cooke on their team trying to injure people every night. People in glass houses throwing stones.
>>Is atdhe actually working for anyone?
Wasn’t atdhe seised by the FBI?
Thats a hold?????
Great shift Dublowsky. Great fuggin shift!!!
JB. they came back with different letters after the dot lol
Dubi (facepalm)
Wow! Imagine that. You put someone in front of the goalie and you can get a tip-in or a screen. And it only took them 57 games to figure that out. I guess Tort’s gut finally woke up.
JB, they made another site
It’s http://atdhe.me/
lmao, Joe love your post! PUNCH ‘em in the larynx… awesome
lift him up by his uglyassed next Boyle lol
>>People in glass houses throwing stones.
What if it’s bulletproof glass?
Great Billy Joel album, by the way.
Hank cannot find the puck at all
Im no fan of the Islanders by any means but you guys need to listen to this. The Penguin announcers are absolutely out of their minds.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puMana_bq1o&feature=player_embedded
Billy Joel is a drunk, according to Elton John. Bwaha!
They have been awesome on the draws in the last couple of games
Jordan staal plays (and looks) like a horse
Joe, seconding your senitments. These announcers are horrible homers.
>>It’s http://atdhe.me/
Dear me! I guess you can’t keep a good site down/offline, eh?
Have Sam and Joe had a Crosby update yet? Would be funny if they mentioned it before the Pens announcers did.
http://joetv.yolasite.com/
For those of you who can’t watch on TV.
12 home games in a row…how the fugg does that happen in ANY sport??
>>Hank cannot find the puck at all
This must be the time of the season when his headaches make their appearance.
atdhenet.tv is it. adthe.me is rumored to be a fake/virus site
Oh no, Hank is grinding his teeth again?
I’ve been using it, Miked. No viruses.
Yalzin – thanks so much for that!! I freaking pay for Center Ice and the sports package, just to get NHL Network and Versus for the rare few Rangers games they air each year. NHLN SD and HD both aren’t working for me, and Time Warner says my box needs to be replaced. On Tuesday. And atdhe all I get for this game is the color bars and “this stream isn’t up yet!”
You’ve made me a happy man again.
LOL! Why would Sam think that’s a penalty shot?
Good kill
lmao ORR, he needs a supply of drury mouthguards teeth grinding edition
Looks like boyle finally came back from AS break…
Dreary’s mouthguards will make him drowsy though. Probably boring too!
Wolski on PP point = shorthanded goal.
Our first Staals are brother of the evening from the Pens casters. Everyone drink!
Why does Dubinsky constantly fall down?
I do what I can =)
From the file of “No way”: The Garden ice is horrible.
i received the Yearbook in the mail yesterday and as i was flipping through it it stuck on drurys page and i started to yawn…....no joke!!
EC is a f’n basket case
Sam Rose, “Of of them came up limp.”
I have a good tolerance towards announcers, but these clowns from Pitts are the worst homers. I really cannot take listening to these two guys.
Why is it that the NHL decide to have them broadcast this game? I thought the home team gets to broadcast it.
So jealous, Linda!
Ha! One of the Pen()s came up limp. Good one.
[Oops, I meant “One of them…”]
unless the pen()s are involved.
absolutely horrifying listening to the manure spewing from their cakeholes
Prust taking acting lessons? Stop flopping and you may get more calls.
Wusskie has menstrual cramps?
Gravey – you didn’t see rule 324 subsection (p)? The Pens are always the home team.
Trade Lundqvist now! And trade Gaborik too before he turns 29 next week!
Guys, Time Warner is also screwing me and showing Buffalo vs. NYI instead of the Rangers. There is a really good, free stream working right now on Veetle.
Check it out: http://www.veetle.com/index.php/channel/view#4d57e938e741b
LOL stOw, I forgot about that one.
lol at the quote from Lemieux. It takes two to tango, Mario.
>>I have a good tolerance towards announcers…
You’re a bigger man than me. I cannot stand Boston, New Jersey [Chico Resch], Buffalo, Islanders [Butch Goring], Philadelphia, or Detroit announcers.
a repeat of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives= a million times better than the Pens intermission report.
For all the ranger fans that aren’t able to get the ranger game because they don’t live in New York, your not missing much.
3C, Darth Sather will have to move fast to trade Gabby, since his birthday is tomorrow. lol
Lemieux is hoping that if he whines and threatens to leave hockey that the league will hold another “lottery” and the Pens will “win” the top pick in the draft for the next 20 years.
you hit the nail on the head MESS
ToMG, are sam and joe praising crosby
How many “Classic” games can the NHL come up with? How can all these games be classics if they’re just starting them now?
no but I truly miss JD.
maybe mario should take a look at a few of the guys on HIS roster before making statements…
pot meet kettle
Here’s audio of the Pens’ announcers laughing at how Hobey Baker died in a plane crash. Class act, they are. What an organization.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2om0LsSDk8
me too ToMG…. they still need to replace him
this clown they’ve been using since he took the Blues position is filler
Dear Mario,
Shut up.
No love,
An NHL fan
These announcers are TERRIBLE! How can the NHL Network and ESPN America broadcast these f#cking homers from FSN Pittsburgh over Sam and Joe? Aren’t announcers supposed to be somewhat neutral anyway? ...and I thought Chico, Doc and Rick Jeanneret were bad!
Any team that has Cooke on it shouldn’t complain too much about the integrity of the game…
Well it’s a game
So sick and tired of the Rangers barely ever putting a body in front of the net at even strength with their grinders fighting for their lives behind the net with nobody to pass to but an opposing defenseman clogging the boards.
Someone needs to send a note to Tortorella. See what happens when you put players in front of the net: you score!
If you aren’t changing you should almost always have a forward a la Holmstrom right up in that crease area taking a beating screening the goaltender and deflecting shots. Maybe that’s why they can barely score two goals a game.
Boyle can be that forward he is HUGE.
LGRs!
funny that Lemieux was completely silent when his boy Cooke was throwing vicious blindside hits that put top players in the league out of action for long stretches of time. or when he threw that knee hit on Ovechkin. but now all of a sudden it’s a “garage” league again because he got fined $100k for his goon Godard coming off the bench during a brawl.
I don’t think they need Wolski at the point on PP anymore. Staal, Dirardi, Gilroy, and Sauer will do. Girardi and Gilroy do a fine job of getting the puck to the net. The reason it hasn’t worked in the past is because there was never Ranger in front to deflect or screen. Exhibit A, Callahan’s goal.
BTW, Roszival had 24 shots in 32 games as a Ranger. He’s taken 10 in 8 games as a Coyote, putting him on a pace for 40 shots in 32 games. If he had shot that much as a Ranger he might still be wearing Blue. (not that I want him, but I know that was one of the detractors of his tenure here. That and his jibber-jabber indecisiveness with the puck and inability to keep it in at the point on the PP.)
Wah. wah, wah.
Someone get Mario a pacifier
actually it was the Isles that got fined 100k. so lemieux got off easy.
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Get your tan on
FANKIST
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Very nice goal. Very nice! No 3-2 loss today, baby!
season saved
Prospal wanted that puck. 3-2.
FANKIST BABY!!!
How was that not a trip?
Goodness can McD skate
It’s Bronzer….
lmfao these guys need to hand in their man cards because they are women in suits
Lemieux signs his name on Cooke’s check every 2 weeks. ‘Nuff said.
You see, that’s what I dislike about these MSG heads. Who cares about the points Gaborik is putting up when we’re on a six match losing streak?
Ha. Steigerwald said McDonough was acquired in “that Chris Higgins deal”. For unintentionally disparaging Gomez, I hate him a miniscule amount less now.
awww, poor pens, they have all these players injured. it’s so unfair to them. sobsssssss
Puh-LEASE
eeeeeeesh hank looks like a flopping flounder today! what is up with this?
Vinny was calling for the puck…vinny was standing statue like against the goal post ‘hoping’ for the puck
Ouch.
Rangers players are standing up for the linesman getting knocked down.
Nice hit boyle on horse face!
is it me or has the MSG camera work quality been pretty bad the last few weeks? almost Versus like, but not yet.
Stupid Nassau AHLers can’t beat the Sabres into submission. 4-2 Sabres in middle 2nd.
wow , all I know is I was found naked in the woods….GO RANGERS!!!!!!!
IM BACK!!!!!
wohoooooooo we need a win !!!!!!!!!!!
wow. the hobey baker comment was tasteless
i really can’t believe all the penguins announcers and “fans” harping on their injuries. WOW RANGERS HAVE HAD SOME TOO
This year’s major playoff upset will be…Flyers.
worst announcers ever, when they take the time to actually get the microphones out of their mouths
remember last season when gaborik would get the puck on his stick last season in a scoring situation? It was money. This season, it is like….save.
>>eeeeeeesh hank looks like a flopping flounder today! what is up with this?
He really doesn’t look all that comfortable/at ease in there, LinCPB.
Somebody should write a letter to that Faceoff Youth Hockey thing about all the little children with the Pens organization and how they all are so maligned that they have to cry and whine all the time. Please include the announcers. Thanks.
I’m really impressed with how much better Stepan has gotten at battling since the start of the season.
JB, it’s perplexing for sure… i’m terrified when the pens are in the zone…
F’n love sauer’s game
MSG is playing bloc party. nice
Gaborik in for Wolski. Wolski done?
3 on 1 and Boyle shoots the puck? Unreal!
I don’t believe Boyle didn’t set up Zuke on that 3v1.
Replay? Hello??
I didn’t mind the shot. Wish he had taken a shot that may have deflected to Zucc on the rebound.
A goal here would be HUGE.
Fuggin Weeeeeeee
Captain Callahan!
That’s HUGE! 4-2! Still on the power play?
what the hell is up with the blog today?
season aliveness preserved
w00000000000000000!!!!!!!
I’m shocked the Pens announcers haven’t whined about that pass being offside.
game should start to break open now. They’ve really dominated the whole game…
2 power play goals today…how have we not mentioned this lol
This fine looking PP will disappoint a lot of “go get the PP quaterback” ppl on this board lol
Cally takes the lumber to the beak and gets the goal. That’s clutch.
Clutchahan!!
I’ll say one thing for the Pens Tv coverage. their camera work and close up coverage and replays have been great.
how do you miss taht????????????
What happened to that solid Pittsburgh defense. Bwahahahahahah! Porous Pen()ses.
yea penalty bastages
another GREAT screen and goal by Cally. That first goal he had he was screening so nice it would have gone in if it didn’t touch his stick IMO
Very good effort this afternoon….awesome game.
Thanks for coming back ORR :P
Stahl has two assists. He’s better than that other Staal.
fans should start bringing “captain callahan ” signs to MSG. if enough people did, imagine what torts and drury would think when they look to the stands and see a sea of those signs?
Dubinsky skates himself into the half boards, loses the puck and then falls down.
Shocker!
Avery is snakebitten
This team can’t win if I’m not around. It’s now a proven fact!
i think dubi and hank were drinking the same stuff last night
Wasn’t the new pen()s arena designed and built in a special way to improve tv broadcast?
AAAAARTIE!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Weeeee! again…
with your minor league scrubs at forward it is inevitable that they will fold over time and get blown out by nhl rosters.
Ar-Tea Time
This is turning into the kind of game in which Gaborik should have a hat trick.
3 power play goals !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this game gonna get dirty?
ARTIEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I told you Artie would score!
CALLY WANTS A HATRICK
OR A GORDIE HOWE HATRICK
playoffs bound
Artie Get Your Gun! 5-2!
“rangers filling the nets by their standards”. STFU pens’ commentators
How about all of these PP goals?!!
Artie!!!!!!!!!! :-)
Shots on net. guys in front. How hard was that to figure out?
Usually it is one of the two, but I cannot stand either one of the Pitts announcers. I cannot stand the Saber play by play and really cannot stand Chico.
lmao C3, only if their announcers were encased in cement
Anisimofrolov with the spin-o-rama.
>>playoffs bound
Easy now!
talbot picks his nose, makes it bleed, eats it and the pen()S go on the power play
I wonder what the Pittsburgh announcers are saying now.
Nicholas, if it does, its because of the pen()s
[i]Shots on net. guys in front. How hard was that to figure out?
[/i]
Seriously how long did it take Tortorella to tell people this? Hey put a body in front of the net, screen the goaltender and get shots through when you have the lane. It’s been hard to watch for a while up until now.
“Pens net getting filled – well, not by their standards.”
Blowout coming!
“I wonder what the Pittsburgh announcers are saying now.”
Umh all Cally goals and AA’s were interfering with MAF. And Rangers were offsides for at least 2 of their 3 goals
>>This is turning into the kind of game in which Gaborik should have a hat trick.
I’m sure his teammates will try their best to set him up for a tap-in.
I just laughed fairly randomly at Tyler Kennedy’s nostrils. Can’t have seen ‘em for a while.
Kennedy looks like a pig with that giant snout of his
kennedy = manbearpig
MANBEARPIG
Mario L is the biggest homer if he’s b!tching about a pure on ice hockey brawl and is ok with low low-life headhunter Cooke who ends ppl’s careers
Are you serial? Are you super serial?
manbearpig
loling ever
“Seriously how long did it take Tortorella to tell people this?”
How do you know he hasn’t?
Maybe they just weren’t listening.
Good for Micheletti mentioning Matt Cooke, after the Mario complaining…cheers Joe…
Great win.
Tired of whining about the big club’s injuries, the Pens announcers have moved on. To whining about how the injuries and subsequent call-ups are hurting “the best team in the AHL”. Sigh…
>>kennedy = manbearpig
“Manbearpig”! How can anyone not laugh at that?
WOW!! did Joe M just say that about Mario having prick Cooke on his team who plays dirty?! My respect for Joe just went up a notch or two
That was a NICE second period.
The Great Wall of China and Tyler Kennedy’s nostrils are both visible from the moon.
LW, I don’t know what your religious affiliation is, or if you even have one, but i feel like i’m doing Penance today
How about a line of Tyler Kennedy, Sidney Crosby, and Olli Jokinen? Call it the nostril-lips-nostril line.
ok this is Vinny Prospal NOT RYan Callahan
>>WOW!! did Joe M just say that about Mario having prick Cooke on his team who plays dirty?!
Yeah, I like to beat up on him, but I must commend him on that one.
hahahahahah LW3H!
I’d like to see one of the guys pull a Lee Harvey Oswald and/or Sirhan Sirhan and shoot Kennedy.
With a puck of course :P
Graves explaining Casino Night: “You get to dress up like you don’t get to dress up any other night of the year…unless you’re Henrik Lundqvist.”
These announcers call the game like Wisneiwski gestures at Avery. Open wide, say “aaaaahhhhhhh”
>>That was a NICE second period.
Just keep in mind that it can all fall apart in the third.
Kennedy-Jokinen-Ricci line would cause deaths.
ok i am pretty sure the pens guys said they would have Cally as the guest, and it was fankist, and i could swear they called him Ryan Callahan…...LW, am i wrong???
I love Prospal’s interviews. They always seem so candid never like he has anything planned to say just waits for the reporter and talks. Would love to chill with that goofball he’s the man
funny that when Boston and Mtl had their big brawl there was not word one out of Lemieux about a “travesty”, but as soon as HIS team gets beat up, all of a sudden he threatens to quit. hey, don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Mary-O.
NYR_FAN February 13th, 2011 at 4:41 pm
Good for Micheletti mentioning Matt Cooke, after the Mario complaining…cheers Joe…
Great win.
——————
Dude, the game isn’t over yet lol
lmao ORR… that would be a nostril fetishists dream come true
Mario’s just upset because the goons he called up were used to mop up the ice by a tougher squad.
BTW, I think I figured out Gaborik’s problem. He got too close to Prospal and has decided to adopt his year on-year off career strategy.
Linda – wasn’t really paying attention, but I think they said Cally was getting stitched up, so Prospal stepped in to do the interview. As it meant he would have no chance of speaking to Trautwig, he gladly accepted.
lmao on the trautwig line, and thanks for clarifying that for me LW
Maloney: “The Rangers have a nice 3 goal comfortable lead.”
There is no comfortable lead.
lulz
half man half bear half pig!
great second they need to bring it keep the puck in the offensive zone not even bother about playing it safe. try and score 10 more goals! LGRs!
the dreaded 3 goal lead
its time for ORR to go outside lol ;-)
LOL! This better be a win, C3P…I’m not used to this…the Rangers scored so many PPGs…wow! Feels like this game should be in the bag!
nice @ Stan also mentioning cooke that piece of carcillo on the pens and how marios ok with that… freakin asshats
Islanders-Sabres tied at 4. Another goal for Grabner.
If I leave, then this team goes back to losing!
For as much heat as Lemieux will get (and deserve), did that numbskull Garth Snow really defend what that numbskull Gillies did by saying “he had the right intentions”?
lmao ORR
you were gone for all this losing
I guess they don’t consider that high-sticking since MZA is only 5’7”
mmmm, port wine and turkey summer sausage.
wait, the third started already? dang.
c’mon, get Cally the hatty
aaaaa yay Cindy update
i know LW,he should have just kept his mouth shut
now the day is complete!
Fugg
Hank doing his statue goalie routine.
boooooooooooooo
Kennedy could smell that goal coming…
brooks orpik with the reach around???? lmfao!
gaborik sucks on the pk
lmao st0w…......last week!
Permit a rant while the Rangers are beating Wilkes-Barre.
These Pittsburgh announcers are vile. The play-by-play clown, protesting a penalty, asks, “What is roughing?”
As long as that piece of garbage Cooke is on their team, please don’t ask, “What is roughing? What is dirty play? What is intent to injure?”
And Mario Lemieux’ public letter is laughable, as long he sign’s Cooke’s paycheck.
Before watching the last installment of the HBO series, I didn’t think it was possible to dislike the Penguins anymore than I did. I was wrong. It was nice to hear Crosby *itch to the referees, and Jordan Staal is an entitled, grunting, man-child who can’t even give his coach and G.M. the courstesy of responses when they ask him questions.
I’m done. For now.
They’re fuggin blowing this.
Ouch, broken nostril.
the penguins are ‘rockin and rollin’ according to the talking asses they employ in the booth
hahahahah Linda
applauding Brad Park
Yeah, Orr, they’re trying really to make sure this is a one goal game.
Definitely a high stick there. Kennedy’s been left with two huge black marks across his nose.
facial reconstruction on manbearpig
Stop taking penalties!
Kennedy snapped his head as if he was shot.
I think they took Tortorella too much at his word when he said they needed to start winning the one goal games.
i’d rather listen to the people drinking koolaid at Jonestown on repeat than Penguins announcers
Time for a Prust shortie.
‘what’s roughing’ ‘i’ll show you roughing’
lmao JB, i think he was coming up for air after snouting for truffles
These guys are such experts on offside rulings when it favors the Pens. It’s amazing.
Ranger penalty killers need to wear goalie blockers on their hands.
and i had to listen to that for some class in college. was disturbing but not nearly as distrubing as Pensys funboys
Good job in front of the net by the penalty killers.
Gabby’s useless.
Good 4 minute kill
LMFAO Snouting for truffles!
I’d love to see Pittsburgh go on an extended slide.
Hey all!!
I’m listening to game on radio and stan fischler was 2nd period guest and he tore into Mario and whole penguin organization. He talked about cooke but even better, brought up the pens tanking in order to get mario #1 overall in draft. He said pens are the last organization that should say anything about integrety in hockey.
Islanders-Sabres 5-5.
come on Hank,just pay attention for 4 minutes!!
Joke,i heard part of that and it was great!!!
Cally hat trick on empty netter?
Islanders-Sabres 6-6.
Never want to wish injury on anyone, but I wouldn’t complain if Steigerwald was out for a while with a Nicked Johnson.
>>slanders-Sabres 5-5.
6-6!
yeah, I think Mario has really opened up a can of worms that was better left shut. Maybe this will be enough for bettman and cambell to see Mario, Crosby et al. in a new light.
lmao nicked johnson
that would be amazing Joke, but doubtful
2 minutes..hang on, boys
Didn’t Bettman and the NHL get financially involved in keeping the Pen()s in Cookesburgh? I’m sure there’s still some sentimentality there for the Tankquins.
+2 blue seat
Nice win.
It’s all thanks to me.
[Why do I find halves and pieces in my can of “whole cashews”?]
yay!!!!!!!!!!!! ORR RETURNS and they win
mmmmmm cashews!
They’re on their feet at the Garden.
Weeeeeeee
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
SMELLS LIKE
VICTORY!!!!!!
Is Wolski hurt? maloney saying he doesn’t see him on bench??
Gaborik couldn’t even buy an empty-netter.
Helmut nuzzles for all!
A win, FINALLY
Rangers are in trouble. Lundqvist is looking for a milestone win (200) next win.
great comeback awesome second period that is how you do it
Boyle is our Holmstrom. Sign him to 3 years NOW get it done. $1/per just throw it at him
I find it funny that MDZ sits for Eminger, and we win…...
That takes care of the Pengwhines…
Ahhh, it feels good. It’s been too long, I forgot what this feels like.
All right, time to tune to Carolina-Atlanta.
we won we won we won we won we won!!!!!
helmut nuzzles and dubi kisses
Wolski out for season with broken toenail.
nuzzles, kisses, hugs and fistbumps all around!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t know what to do now that they won…
we are the champions …my friends…
Islanders trying to blow game. Shorthanded for end of regulation. Buffalo will most likely get at least a point.
rub your eyes
click your heels 3 times and say
THEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE RANGERS WIN!
“I find it funny that MDZ sits for Eminger, and we win…...”
Eminger is better defensively. Last year different story obviously but he needs to get his work in on the CT Whale
The best part? That they beat the Pens. YES! (fist pump)
Isles-Sabres going to OT. Stupid Islanders. New Islander Montoya begins his revenge by trying to screw Rangers out of playoff position.
Thanks Orr. Good win.
They couldn’t have done it without you.
Is Wolski hurt?
ISLES WIN!
One point for Buffalo.. I’ll take it.
ORR!!
thanks for helping break the streak.
i “helped” in my own way
by not watching the game.
nhl network wasn’t on for some time
due to channel being out.
then
superstition crept in.
whatever
it’s a victory
finally!!!!!
and especially
against the pens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Grabner grabbed the extra point for the Islanders.
Thank GOD!!
And thank Orr, too!
At least Mrs. “RetireBradPark’s#2” won’t have to listen to me complain tonight.
She’s still listening to me, isn’t she?

YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone know why Wolski was pulled?
Injury, DJK. Couldn’t tell, but maybe hamstring or something “lower body” related.
Whew! The Rangers needed that one badly….can they now string together a few victories? That would be nice!
BTW, did Eric Christensen even dress? And damn, what a funk Gaborik’s in – can’t even score on an empty net now! Nice of Tortorella to put him out there, though.
Schenn, Tuebert and Moller for Gaborik please!
Who gets called up to replace Wolski? Newbury? Weise? Grachev?
I think Wolski clipped his knee. I could be wrong.
And EC is pure garbage. He’s a total waste of a spot. If there’s no shootout, then he’s useless.
Rangers need their very own Rick Nash.
DJK
Better question would be WHO do we trade to replace Wolski? :)
Correction, I think Torts just said it was Wolski’s ribs that ailed him.
I’m tired of the Isles getting these random nobodies and they turn into 30 goal scorers. What the fugg?
Defenseman and center are trade priorities.
Glad to see MSG took my advice and got an iPad for Trautwig.
according to Zipay tweet
Wolski with rib injury
possibly pulled muscle
:-) @ ‘what ailed him”

HOLY CRAP, we don’t play again until Thursday!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m tired of the Isles getting these random nobodies and they turn into 30 goal scorers. What the fugg?
And we have Gabby who has scored in only 9 of the games he’s played? LOL I KID I KID
If the guy is hurt, please sit him and get him healthy.
wth has happened to ryan miller this season?
Eminger played 4 mins, Gilroy 8 mins. Special teams played into that another 4 day break coming Torts was not afraid to keep Staal out there for almost 30
Liked the line combos which had some grit spread over three lines. Big stretch of 4 games in 4 days with Kings and Debs (both on winning streaks) and Philly.
Hopefull Wusskie is not back anytime soon. Bring up Newbury!
AA played his most physical game all year and Dubi was controlling the puck and had only one brain fart all game.
Defense did a great job firing on the goal, even Girardi!
Did anyone watch the game on NHL Network ?
Those announcers are horrible
that would be LW and me Tony… Farce does not begin to cover it
oh I think Mickey had them too…they were the Pens guys of course. disgraceful
What game was on the NHL Network? Who were the announcers?
Gabby is looking mighty pathetic.
He better step it up come playoff time.
Then again, what are the odds of that? I mean, he was a no-show in our most important game last year.
MSG is blacked out here when the games are on VS or NHL.
I’m forced to watch & listen to 2 guys ramble about nothing.
A one point they said Cally learned to play in the NHL from Drury – wtb !
now you know i am completely unable to watch
a pens game for years.
those announcers may be in the running as the
worst ever!
Jimbo, Pitt announcers.
jpg, horrendous! there were times where they were talking but you couldnt distinguish what they were saying. I think they actually had the microphones in their mouths. Whereas Sam and Joe do nothing but PRAISE the opposition, these guys were making snide remarks about Gabby. Leave that stuff for the fans, as announcers you’re supposed to be above that. That entire organEYEzation, from top to bottom, is unprofessional.
New post.
Thanks, Tony! I had no idea that they were carrying the Ranger game….I’, in NYC, so it would have been blacked out here, anyway..
I’m
Orr
and all of the Gaborik fans, had best get used to one thing..the guy is a giveaway artist among the best of them’
I know he is known as a shot maker ( which he’s done precious little of this season), but one thing he does with alarming consistency is coughing up that puck.
