According to the NHL transaction wire, the Rangers have recalled goalie Cam Talbot from Connecticut.
Which probably means that Henrik Lundqvist might not be able to play tonight after, apparently, being hit around the kneecap by a shot last night.
Presumably, Talbot would back up Chad Johnson if Lundqvist can’t play, or at least back up Johnson.
On the other hand, this could all be stupid speculation, and perhaps Talbot was called up so Lundqvist doesn’t have to practice during this stretch of four games in six days.
We should know relatively soon, after John Tortorella addresses the media around 5. I will tweet anything that comes out of that presser, then update here asap.

Really? Wow, i hope he’s ok!!
Impressive! Carp will tweet. Sheesh, what’s this world coming to…:-)
imagine.
Good afternoon, Carp!
I’m going to watch tonight’s game on my roof, prepared to jump depending on tonight’s outcome.
Tweet us when you land, Orr…We need to know you’re OK…:-)
LOL! Can I join you?
Good afternoon, Sally!
This probably means Johnson is going down to HFD to play in the Whale’s game tonight.
ORR! I will be at the bottom ready to catch you if you jump. If you’re high enough your suicide could lead to both of our deaths.
As Kanye West says… “this will be a beautiful death…jumpin out the window…..”
(not tryin to offend anyone)
tomorrow night that is…
Actually, forget it. Some Australian Silver medalist jumped out of her building. I’ll have to figure out a different way.
I know, I said I was going to burn a tree if PAP scores. I’ll burn myself, along with the tree. I’ll be like that monk that set himself on fire. Since I’m in a tree, I guess that would make me a monk-ey :P
LOL! 5 people voted Dan Girardi as the MVP in the poll—>
Bwahaha!! Seriously?
>>Which probably means that Henrik Lundqvist might not be able to play tonight…
Which probably means the season is over.
[Hmm, I wonder how many times we’ll hear the word “rivalry” tonight.]
Put Boyle in net
heck with the king, Any word on Crosby?
And if anyone is still in doubt whether Hank should be a lock for MVP, just follow what’s going through your mind since it’s been floating that he could be out for tonight…
NYR – A vote for Girardi is the same as a non-vote.
Thanks Carp for putting Girardi in the poll. Are we weeding people out around here?
Well, it seems we have Chad and his Johnson in goal tonight..shouldn’t be too hard to get the 2 pts.
Crybaby resumed diving practice today, from what I hear.
The goalie position is way over rated… Least important position on the ice…left wing? Now that is the crucial position.
Slewfooting next week for him? They need to recall a few guys from Wilkes-Barre for that purpose…
carp
go slow at first, kind of ease into it! Don’t hurt yourself!!
Off to walk the girls and dogs, so LGR and LGD!!!
yay Hank is in
Hank is in!
Wee!
LQ is in
Crosby’s mustache is very mainly… He must be on roids to grow such a hedge. How does he trim that thing anyway? Probably with a weed wacker. Go Chad and his Johnson … Let’s win baby.
Get off the damn roof, Orr!
Goaltending is the toughest position. When the play is on the other end of the ice, you have an opportunity to scout the arena, and check out the various chesticles, and the next thing you know, the puck is behind you.
It takes a lot of concentration.
Awesome! Hanky Panky!
We win 3-0!
Game Not Over
Season Not Over!
It’s a great point Eddie. You don’t NEED a goalie to win. You can put another goalie on the ice. I have heard of teams using 6 men on the ice to score a goal in the last few minutes of the game if they are losing by any less than 2 goals. Martha? Can you get the stats on this one.

Long live the King.
Phew….Let me go take a shower, was sweating my MZA off…
Carp just tweeted…..he he. Good job, Rick!
Manny – excellent point…to go empty net from the start is brilliant strategy. Other teams aiming for the empty net inducing many icing calls. The rangers, superb on the draw, would be in excellent position to do something.
Zuccarello in!
Hobbit Wizard! Wee!!
Lord of the Rink!! Wee!!
Prayers have been answered!!
thanks, ilb. it wasn’t easy. but it’s just pain.
Mao – don’t forget… Pass the dubi…
Mao – and dubi or not dubi, that is the question
E to the third..lol…you getting an early start on being on fire today? lol
new post
I think chad and his Johnson should get the start… Let the king rest until Sunday.
