Same lineup unless Fedotenko (presumably) can’t go after warmups. Then Kris Newbury would play.
Otherwise, Newbury and Matt Gilroy are prucha’d.
Lundqvist starts his career-high 23rd game in a row.
And we all know what’s at stake, so no need to say much more. No other relevant games tonight.
Magic Number = 5 points (any combination of points gained by the Rangers or failed to be gained by Carolina).

You gotta want it….
Do the Rangers want it?
Feeling ok Linda??
Just saw this on twitter:
DaveLozo
My man on the desk @BComptonNHL says Milan Lucic was hit with a puck during warmups and didn’t return. When I know more, you’ll know more.
I want it!!!!!!!
Ryan Miller = EC’s twin
Feisty tonight {{{Headzo}}}
Dubiii, i bet you’re not too far off of that 100th 1-0 game in this ORIGINAL SIX MATCHUP
Ryan Miller looks nothing like Judas.
Big game tonight!!! Gotta play a full 60 minutes!!
Blah blah blah…. What about Crosby?
How many times do we have to hear about that Byfuglien shootout? NBC yesterday, Curses today! Enuf!
Repost:
My 2 cents, Torts knows he is too emotional and is not tactful enough to delicately answer some of these questions. ( He’s said he doesn’t address the team immediately after games because of this – Vancouver win being an exception)
He may say “I have no idea” or “I don’t know” but more often than not it’s because he doesn’t want to anwser the question.
Often it’s to protect the psyche of the team or a player.
Lucic hit with puck?
Bwahaha!
You think you’re better than Crosby, Izzy?
Let’s goooooooooooo Rangers!
Let’s do this, boys!
Score early-score often
refresh, refresh, refresh !!!
Let’s go RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRANGERS!!!!!!!!
Prust fired it at Lucic!

Dave Lozo DaveLozo
Lucic is in the lineup, so whatever happened in warmups isn’t keeping him out of the game.
i is in a feisty mood!
Grab your jock, Izzy, if you need one.
is lucic really out?
lmao if you need one!
Hope there’s some news about Skid.
Step aside, Stringbean…
ok lucic is in. good. somebody hit him hard!
Lucic is playing. Thornton is out.
LET’S GO RANGERS!!!
Let’s get ready to rumble! Let’s go Rangers!!!!!!!!!!

One of my favorite (silent) Boneheads who sits near the pressbox just said I fooled her on April 1. That makes me happy.
MSG sounds alive, eh, Carp?
Hope Sally is watching the Dubinsky interview.
methinks engblom looks creepier withOUT the mullet
my man Dubiiii sling the cliches on ice!
No letter on Dubi’s sweater no wonder he’s not a leader
slinging*
Boy, I hate not being on my beach, but I really missed you all :)
duby looks meaner than he used to. he looks like if he saw orr anywhere near him, hed grab him by teh neck like smeagol and say, no precious for u gollum!!!
Dublowsky better have a mullet for the playoffs. I don’t want to see him with a playoff beard.
Mullets all around!!
I hear Sather saw his shadow this morning. That’s six more weeks of Rangers Hockey.
Bring it on!!
You must be missing the beach today Mama! It’s miserable out there!
We missed you too, Mama. Hi Julie! Let’s all get the Rangers a win tonight!
Arena is full and pumping. Looks and sounds like the playiffs
well Hank already has quite a playoff beard going
What in Holy Hell is going on with all these commercials on Curses…
so far, good crowd voice.
Hi Tiki!
Hi Carp. Mom says hi too!
anyone with a link? LGR!!!!!
LGR!!
Sire Father!!!
LMAO, Izzy!
No mullets!
btw, does anyone else in the NYR pressbox get the groupies that Carp does? Methinks not. And I love/know Gross and always say hi….but RR and Carp rules!
nicely done Izzy!!
i guess since its so cold in sweden, those guys are pretty hairy…i mean just look at zetterberg, he’s like sasquatch
I can actually hear the crowd.. weird.
Tweet: Rangers lose opening draw.
WHAT?!?!!?!?
DID I MISS NEW NEWS ON CINDY?!?!?!!??
BYFUGLIEN!!
Julie – It’s never miserable out there when there are people like you, Mama, Carp, and the rest of you boneheads in the world! Im ready!
>>i am going to fight you right now!!!
You’ll have to catch me first!
Tweet: Rangers lose draw after offside.
Who’s the pimp next to Engblom?
ha ha – Kramer: “there was an incident”!!
Thanks Tiki!
Sather doesn’t cast a shadow…
BURY SATHER!
Julie, if I could watch this game from where I was yesterday….that’s heaven :)
lol JB, i’ll catch you in each universe!!!
hopefully
Engblom brings
us come old school
canadiens luck
How many guys did Boston have on the ice there?
Sather doesn’t have a reflection either!!
FIRE SATHER, OLGA!!
Hemorrhage Jerseys, yikes!
OH, it’s the Heritage sweater!
Crowd sounds fired up
^ 5 dde
Well hey there gang!
MSG crowd sounds wired big time tonight.
You got that right Mama!
MICKEY!!!!!!!!!!!!
they must have let the real fans in tonight
FIRE SATHER Linda
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Both teams showed up
we gotta get more sped through teh neutral zone and get shots. skate harder boys!
May I ask why we are wearing the heritage sweaters? Do we want to lose?
All got to say is: coochie coochie
so did you and grabby ILB lol
Dodged the bullet right there
All I got
hey ILB… if you’re keeping score at home, it’s version 5.0 lol
fast paced game so far. mcdonagh makin mistakes already!
jezz staal.
All hail the King!
the King is in the house
big save by LQ
Stahl pulling a McDonut.
I have a feeling I’m going to do lots of pacing tonight.
the ostrich maneuver by stallsie
weak call – total carcillo
Rubber Legs Staal
we need to get faster next season
Evening Linda!
Let’s go PK.
i think girardi is dead
Girardi = Injured Monster
girradi is gonna be hurt alot if he keeps blockin shots all teh time. but good for him
More high sticks missed?
Owie shift for Danny G.
It’s Just Pain..
We need to stop bashing anyone who is willing to block Chara’s shot.
Does Callaman ever hit the net anymore? Jeez!
Girardi – cajones the size of Skid’s ego
did Girardi get hit by a boston stick?
girardi’s gonna start collection disability in about 2 more years
lol cally wtb was that??
monster = monster
lmao Headzo, what about his lips?
Did the refs just miss a high stick? These Versus announcers always ignore penalties.
Girardi gets busted open on a high stick and no 4 minute power play, nhl refs are plain awful.
is one of these guys a boston guy… he has a really annoying accent lol
cheap ass versus doesnt even show the penalty time? lame
nice hit by stepan to keep the play alive
man gabbys line is almost useless against these good teams
LOL Linda! 1 lip per cojone!
Linda -Yes. It’s Andy Brickley, a regular NESN guy that does Bruins games. :)
excellent shift
It would be nice to get a shot on goal
Stepan is getting a lot better at playing the bodyt and staying on his skates. he sued to fall down all the time
LET’S GO RANGERS!
Julie, e-mail me and remind me of your eta on Saturday.
All, if you’re interested, look for news here by Thursday on bonehead picnic this Friday or Saturday, depending on when you can make it….We have a mini picnic Friday, and for whoever wants to join Saturday for game people….
fyi, we have folks from out of country and state, so if you’re local….well then…...
Ha! Girardi trying to grab that refs ass.
were just throwin the puck around wherever. not lookin good.
I feel like I’m watching Survivor – Manhattan
LMFAO HEADZO! +4
thanks Tiki, i thought so when they showed him earlier and it looked like he was chewing rocks as he was talking lol
Alright, I’m out of diapers already…
maybe we get a shot on goal here
have to score now
TomG, I think Girardi was cut by a teammate’s stick, either Boyle or Anisimov.
You’re welcome, Linda. Hope you can get the trifecta of Cally/Prust/Boyle to score tonight! :)
ilb, you mean belly bands?
Claude Julien, French-Canadian member of no-neck coaching frat.
jeez fumbling the puck constantly. and gabby bury something!!!
does comcast own nesn and whatever the caps broadcast is?
or is it a dolan thing that it’s always the opponent’s announcers
doing the game?
nice looking PP so far
lol thanks! I’ll take 3 goals from ANYONE in blue tonight!! I hope Hank gets an assist! LOL
CT, can you imagine him and boudreau out to dinner????
4 Rangers behind the net? Looks risky…
Both, mama…Poor Casey
Step-On taking some dumb shots on that PP
why the hell are they waiting so long to shoot?
How you likin’ Wolski and Eminger on the points?
Bonehead pic-a-nic? I am sad panda that I cannot make it :(
ilb – How are Casey and Leo?
OK Mama. I’ll drop you an email to let you know what’s going on.
Carp- that’s why I ran out of diapers
diapers…
or depends???? hmmmm
ugh, would have been nice to score there.
Knew that was coming
dammit
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! bastages
game over
And people complained when MZA was on the point…hahaha!!
—-
Fugg!
Sigh
ilb, sorry, but, LMAO!!!!!
liking the sound of the crowd, come on!!!!
Come on guys, dont give up. We can answer right back!
this is an asskicking. playoffs started withouyt the rangers
LOL, EC was staring at the puck.
Hank will keep us in this game dont wory grabs.
Lots of time to go
LETS GO RANGERS!!
Stop it all. We will win.
We don’t clear out the crease. Ever.
Two wide open nets missed.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!
How did that not go in? Boyle made a great play to keep the puck in and get it low.
how did that miss..
stone hands boyle!!! ohhhh man
Well, good night.
season over
Welp…you gotta bury that Feds….and now they score…sigh…cry…
Mother….
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGH!! manbearpig 2 bastages
goodnight, this game is over.
oh boy
Oy vey
Carp
at least Wolski slowed down the puck
more unhappy with 2-0
and McCabe and Stepan waiting tooooooooo long
to shoot or not shoot during pp
Grabby, I do not acknowledge such nonsense.
tell your children not to look my way
Hahaha, this is unbelievable.
So soft.
do we really wanna make the playoffs? with this team?
Repost:
We don’t clear out the crease. Ever.
ugh geez, this isn’t what i was anticipating. this team will show its character and desire and come back. they have to. if you believe it, it will happen.
terrible team defense there.
There’s Ranger blood in the water now…
It looks like this one is over early.
boo on you guys! big tough macho dudes throwing in the towel already… pssssshhh
It’s clear that this team can’t compete if they even make the playoffs at this point. Let’s take the high draft pick & continue the rebuild…
Trade everybody!
Dumb turnovers all over this first period.
It’s early yet. 2 more periods to go.
All 5 guys watching one guy WTF?
important think us got Hank to stay focused and not get frustrated
I’m with you tiki…..
tiki- we came out playing like its game 25. as the almighty torts would say. falling down, running into each other. cant hit teh net, shooting way wide, up into teh ceiling. etc.. they arent ready for anything
games over after one period, gotta hope from some help in the standings now…
Defense was in total disarray on those
is*
This is a shooting gallery.
They need to clear the crease, but Hank can’t leave a rebound like that
carp, LMAO tripled
We could use Wade Redden right now
yet…..wish I were on beach and checking in from there tomorrow…come on boys!!!!!!
Wow. Booed off the ice.
19 shots to 5. Pathetic
Yikes, everyone’s mesmerized by the puck!
The Rangers look tired, I can only imagine the toll setting in for Lundqvist. Torts has no other option at this point but he has to realize that athletes are human too, they’re not human-pinballs that can grind all year.
I wonder if this is the same reason why excellent physical teams like BOS and SAN run out of steam in the playoffs…
Well, we wore the heritage jerseys in a must win game. If we lose, it’s our own stupidity that cost us. Good decision making Rangers management on jersey choice – in an almost must-win game.
hate, HATE the booing…....
They deserved to be booed off the ice.
ok, its only one period. its entirely possible to turn this around.
Yeah, nobody’s ever come back from 2-0 after one period.
Let’s not forget that we’ve been less than impressive at home all season long…so these last three home games could really mess us up
>>...big tough macho dudes throwing in the towel already
Reasonable big tough macho dudes being realistic.
dammit! did not envision this score after 1.
got to turn up in the second
No way would we even stand a chance against the Bruins if we were lucky enough to make the playoffs.
Tiki, but they might have sold a few more jerseys. That’s far more important.
The real problem is the guys dropping to the ice whenever they think a Boston pass or shot is coming.
Rangers can’t turn it around if they cannot score goals.
mama love to carp
settle down all
when you let destiny out of your hands it will never come back.
this teams looks dead tired and running on fumes.
SEASON OVER
lol Carpy, UNHEARD OF!!!!!!!!!!!!
sheesh. you guys are gonna get splinters in your hands and asses from jumping on and off the bandwagon so much during the game!!! SIMMAH DOWN!!
luckily Montreal and Buffalo are playing very good teams in Washington and Chicago
NYR are 2 steps behind tonight….they need more urgency….no forecheck has been established whatsoever…it’s been a quick game, not the Rangers’ style…
After this season is over with, rip those heritage jerseys to shreds, burn them, and piss on the flames.
Period characterized by offensive impotence and defensive collapse. Afraid it will be Isles type game embarrassment.
good point Yalzin
you can’t make a play when you’re splayed across the ice lol
this is a team thats been in the top 8 since november fall out now this season is a DISASTER.
i dont want to hear about youth. it was good for 79 games
here comes the whiny Ranger fans complaining about Milbury…
Unheard of!!!
Some cracks finally appearing in the McDonagh/Sauer pairing – could be, however, simply exhaustion. Tortorella has to play all 6 D and all 12 F, regardless of the score.
The effort is there, so the booing from the MSG idiots is well…idiotic. But their popgun offense yet again is the biggest issue. Look at the missed opportunities by first Prust and then Fedtenko.
The real tale, however, is that it’s that line that easily had the best chances to score.
Amazingly bad period again in a must win game. Poor Hank, it is a shooting gallery out there.
We just don’t have the talent to compete with the elite teams in the league. The defense was awful this period. The forwards just can’t make a play quickly enough. The offensive instincts just are not there. This first period was a repeat of the third in Boston. Clearley, Julien has figured out how to play us, while we still have not figured out how to play them.
right now,
i worry for the Rodent’s tv brick.
eric, are you serious bro? Step away from the ledge…
Could make a drinking game out of it. Every time a Ranger goes down to block a pass/shot, you take a drink of your beverage of choice (mine is iced tea).
I swear I saw a Ranger going to block a pass down in the corner in a butterfly style.
We’ll come back and win this game. I truly believe that.
On a funny, ironic note, Krisy is actually sitting next to the family of MZA, and is having a great time talking with them. For anyone that doesn’t know, Norwegian Krisy is a huge fan of MZA, for obvious reasons.
exactly jbytes. we cant score. we score 1 or 2 on average. at best, unless thomas really falls asleep, we could tie it, but we cannot let another one in.
So, monster call missed by the refs and by VS on Girardi, wow they won’t even correct themselves during intermission highlights. Should have 4 minute minor, Girardi would have never been hurt by blocking
Yalzin: So I assume you’re not a big fan of the fact that the Rangers are being recognized for their willingness to block shots and are either leading the league or right up with the leaders in that stat??
glad i’m just listening to this game and not watching
That’s cool, Tiki. It’s a shame she (and all other MZA fans, myself included) can’t watch him tonight!
there is a chris drury drinking game for recovering alcoholics. you take a shot every time drury scores
Well, let’s see what they got.
Or take a drink everytime a stupid post on here is made – you might even get a buzz off of iced tea at this rate!
ORR, instead of tearing up the jerseys, burning them and peeing on the flames
maybe they should burn down MSG!
miked – nice. It’s also a diet I hear – you can have a one slice of his pizza everytime he scores or raises his voice during an interview.
lol @ ‘raises his voice’
he must have the most mellow children in the history of mankind
NYR FAN
if the youth and the vets can succeed for 79 games why cant they in the final week.
blowing a playoff spot is a disaster after you have been in the top 8 since november.
you cant spin it any other way
I wonder if the fans at MSG have started rioting yet… it appears to be going on here…
The lack of top end talent is on Sather! It really pisses me off when I hear a guy like Corey Perry, picked 16 picks behind Huge Bustamen is leading the league in scoring.
New York Rangers – merry-go-round
Anyway you spin it, the result is the same…you get dizzy
I hope they get the FI-RE SA-THER chant going next….
OK deep breath now, feeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwww, one shift at a time -let’s see what happens
mundo, i repeat, i think girardi was cut by his teammate’s stick.
and the effort was very good. not very smart at times, but very good.
Yeah, burn down MSG. I’m sick of sharing our home with the Knicks, the Circus, and same Dogs who know how to walk like a snobby rich bouche!
They can play their home games at the park!
Hey, maybe the Bruins have punched them selves out? One can only hope we were playing a rope a dope first period.
On the contrary Jim, I do enjoy that.
However, there is a time and a place to go and block it. Every time is not that time, and taking yourself out of the play is even worse. Case in point: The second Bruins goal.
Oh by the way – ticket prices up next year!
No surprised, been saying for months there not making the playoffs. This organization has gone around in circles since sather’s been the GM. This organization will go nowhere as long as sather is the GM. The same old story. Next year teams that finish behind the rangers this year will be better and improving while the rangers will be the same old garbage.
Reading some of the ridiculous comments on here is making me feel better after that period
a little too tentative for me in a MUST-WIN game. We need to forecheck a lot harder, like Dubi does, or like Boston does
.
Need an early one for their one psyche.
Not mentioning any names, but some people on here have no idea what they’re watching, or have been watching, this season.
czech- maybe its not the players we have picked but the development system we had(have). look at grachev, he was tearing the ohl up, and what happens when he goes to the whale? he underacheives, just like most other ranger prospects. and the good ones that develop are grinders who have to work twice as hard as anybody else cuz of their lack of raw talent. theres just too many similar playesr in our system. no real stars in the pipeline. unless somebody surprises.
lmao @ rich snobby dogs
eric
Stepan has played 80 games this season. Thats just as many as he’s played in his ENTIRE college career. The kid is worn down and playing nowhere as good as he was earlier in the season and is laboring on the top line…
Not to mention Dubinsky, Boyle and Prust have all come back to earth…
uh, did not we all agree, it is about the youth, and rebuilding and building…..I’m not giving up on us by any any means, but hello! Carp’s right…..trade everybody!!!! hahahahah
Torts broke up Sauer-McDonagh … not surprised. I bet the Versus guys don’t pick up on that.
they should have changed uniforms during the intermission ;-)
Butt-Chin’s shots are aboot as useful as Avery’s
another blistering wrister from gabby to the midsection! at least hes skating hard
they are on the clock Carp!!
Yalzin: You take the good with the bad…not every shot block attempt will work…that’s my point. You wanna see the end of those missed slides, you send the end of something that has worked so well this year for the Rangers.
carp at 8:29 = monster
Gaborik needs to step it up
It appears to me the Rangers are dragging their rear end, regardless of their fatigue denial.
So how long will Torts keep Gaborik with Stepan and Prospal? it hasn’t work for a while now
I’m saying they have to pick their slides better. The one on the second goal was the wrong play every time. How many times have they taken themselves out of the play by sliding on their bellies?
That’s my point. Yes, you take the good with the bed, but you have to be smart about it.
It’s killing me that I am missing the game. Regardless of that fact, I will still say the Rangers can come back from this! Let’s Go Rangers!!!!!
This PP is a must score!
I can’t wait for the playoffs when Dreary centers Butt-Chin.
carp = angry!
need one here, for sure
I will say this, however, in McDonagh’s defense: On that 2nd goal WW could have and should have taken the Bruin player with the puck out along the boards, but instead, chose to wave his stick at him, which basically did nothing, other than make me yell at him at the TV.
Waste of time
Completely outworked
drury’s kids are probably mutes
Terrible
Gawd, what a horrible PP….
B’s want this game more
what is less than unproductive, cause that PP sure was
This sucks.
Now if Drury was playing… ;)
this is just flat out boring. feel bad for paying customers.
Ranger that handled the puck the most that PP? Lundqvist.
Carp
we can talk about youth and positivity
but
there has to be a shot taken on the pp
........at least.
they do realize that they’re up a man?
Lack of top end skill = popgun offense = pathetic PP. Same old same old. SIGH
Ok, who the hell is banging that pipe? Annoying.
These Geico NHL commercials piss me off!
I’ve been saying it all year, but most of the players on this team are not smart hockey players. They all have heart and give 100% (most of the time) but they just continue to make dumb decisions with the puck all the time.
maybe Drury will come out
in the 3rd and clutch the msg out msg
Bruins sure came out to battle
Amen. Dumb, dumb passes. They should just always shoot from everywhere.
by no means am i blaming the kids but as a team when u are in the top 8 basically all year its hard to take as a diehard fan them blowing it in the last 3 games.
Geico needs a new hockey commercial. Maybe use that lizard as a skate sharpener…
C3, we’d all be asleep?
not everyone can be upbeat and positive all teh time!!! it is not human!!!
feel bad for Krisy wasting her $$... not even helping the American economy, it’s helping the Dolan economy…
Grabachev
We all are paying customers…some with wallet some with health ;)
Why is Callaman trying to be so fuggin cute? He’s been a totally different player these last three games. Keep it simple for fuggs sake!
i get crapped on here but let me say are you guys happy missing the playoffs 2 yrs in a row.
I’m going away for a while. this “they’re great” ... “they suck” stuff from period to period, goal to goal, boggles my mind.
LET’S GO RANGER!!!
Ive been thinking the same thing Lev. Maybe we can come back for her. At least she got to meet and converse the MZA family.
the only way you turn these games around is start knocking the bruins on their asses. its pretty simple
I’d like to see the Geico caveman eat the lizard actually…
Amazing shot by Avery. He tried shooting at the wrong net.
i like that CCCP
and
sadly
like all of us
here
I resemble that remark.
Lol, Carp, you should be used to it by now…
Game 1/2 over and the Rangers popgun offense has mustarded a whooping 8 shots on net. That, IMO, says it all about why the Rangers are struggling mightily to make the POs yet again this year.
Carp
I hear you man but you can’t deny that the team looks kind of sucky right now
only 8 shots on goal=not good.
I think Torts was drinking the funny koolaid when he suggested his team isn’t fatigued. It’s been obvious for a while. Not a bad thing, just an honest observation.
Eric,
If I thought qualifying for the playoffs this year was the minimum requirement then I’d be angry. But I had zero expectations for this team this year so being on the cusp exceeds expectations. This team was never about this year only or probably next year either.
Ouch…
Damn!!
Have the Bruins blew a three goal lead this season???
AAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just saw ninth place flash before my eyes…
That was a lazy play at center ice that led to the 2 on 1 and the goal.
hahaha nice
4 goals against Tim Thomas? Don’t think so…
I knew it was going in before it went in…I swear
goodnight turn out the lights the season over
That one you can pin on Lundqvist.
wow… i mean, just wow
look, i just cannot eat more ravioli
out of nerves anymore.
need to just get drunk
and pretend that today (which sucked btw)
and the past period and a half didn’t happen.
Game over.
Season over.
I’ve officially moved myself onto Team Chicken Little.
NYR putting themselves in the worst situation possible.
carp at 8:42 = mama love
I hear ya buddy….yeeesh. You all are teeing me off. What happened to LGR!!! We need that now! Where’s Greg!!!!!!
This is a shame after such a great season.
CC, same here. It’s just that kind of game.
thomas could take a nap headzo./ there will be no win tonight. but we should still make the playoffs.
There we go!
It’s a start….
It’s about time!!!
Go to the net, boys…..
Yay?
hey theres a pulse
Stanley Cup, here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
What’s that a hint of life?
Wooohooo…Rangers score! They’re GREAT!
nice shot
lmfao Olga
SHHHHHHHHHHH DO NOT SAY ANYTHING
if hank didnt give upo a softie!!!
uh oh…..um, I still believe what I typed above, yet it was before the third B goal. sigh.
That’s one.
Ya know what? The hell with it? They CAN come from this, they WILL win this game.
I believe.
This PP is HUGE
Show some balls! Elmo style!
whoa, I am so behind….....:)
wolski hits the five-hole
Indeed Grab…
Most important PP of the season right here.
Slashing powerplay, wooo lets close this gap
oh no. the pp!!!
the GEORGE HAMILTON OF HOCKEY !!
oh no…rally killer…Rangers PP!
gabby!!!!!
There ya go Mickey! Hey hey hey!!
Stupid pass Cally
Gawd…can Dubinsky wake up please!
the pp
Stupid shot Dubi
STOP LYING DOWN ON THE ICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does this team practice odd-man rushes at practice?
Yet another wasted PP.
lmao. the pp. why refs why???
thankfully the powerless play ended
Stupid waste of PP
This is just an observation. Do the Rangers power plays seem to last for 30 seconds whereas the opposition PP feels like three or four minutes?
Stupid ref and his stupid striped jersey
Even the VS announcer called thei PP a momentum killer!
I. Still. Believe.
there…..
That PP was the definition of “forcing it”.
gabby = worthless
not that i am anywhere near Mr. Positive
but
the pp looked better
than previous 2
but they really needed to score
or get another one before the period ends.
I hope Butt-Chin’s next goal comes off his face.
sorry
didn’t mean to sound like a cliche-ridden
tv analyst
>>Gawd…can Dubinsky wake up please!
Oh, he’s up; he just hasn’t found the light switch yet.
lets also not forget that Boston is a better team than us…
although Dubinsky has been terrible the last few games…
Next goal = monster huge
They either miss the net or shoot into opposing players
Why are there so many pinging noises?
Useful pass by Butt-Chin,....if he was playing with a fuggin ghost!
WOLSKI = MONSTER
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Prospal!!!
Bronzer again!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FANKIST!!! WHAT A TAN!
Right back in this game, folks…
Keep being posittive, boys
Maybe? Just maybe?
oh yea
Fankist AGAIN!
Hell yeah.
OH BABYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PROSPAL = TAN MONSTER
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH
Great play in the corner to lead to the goal. Stepan totally beat Ference over there.
Great pass by wolski there!
FANKIST X2 BABY!!!!!!!!!! BURN BABY BUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRN!
Oldest forward on the team with bad knees playing his ass off.
lets tie it up in the second
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they’ve been playing more focussed
or as my yoga teacher wife would put it
aka mrs. jpg
they being in the moment!
That’s a leader!
Ok I missed both goals. I am going to take one for the team and not watch.
Campbell = untouchable
Dublowsky has really earned his name these last few games.
they’re great.
Told ya! Patience!
What a great little play by Stepan using his body to get an angle on the puck and get it over to WW. Those little plays he does that often go unnoticed. This is one talented kid.
PROSPAL FOR PRESIDENT!
Thanks Manny
Another great shot by Mr. Butt
LMAO @ Burn baby Burn!
Nice whiff by Dubinsky and then a terrible shot 10 feet over the net!!
boy, if Drury was in the lineup
he’d probably win this upcoming offensive zone
faceoff
Cut to the inside Gaborik, don’t stay in the same lane damn it.
eric…do you still think we are collapsing? too tired? monumental fail?
Lol Carp
lmao Carp, i didn’t lose faith!
I’d be happy to get a point out of this, if things don’t change.
at least they have a pulse now find a freaking way to get to ot and we still control our fate
You g
it’s going to be an
interesting 3rd period
this game could go either way
the next goal could mean all the difference.
blahblahblah…......
You got it headzo and co.
ok, ok, ok, things have done a 180.
I believe
Lol, Carp….
Stepan out hustled 3 Bs to the puck to set that up. Maybe there’s some jump left in those 20 y/o legs.
Tonight is the night we can all pass judgment on Gaborik.
omg
on
my internet radio feed
the period is just ending
How’s Crosby doin’?
Orr, if things don’t change they lose :P
nyr fan
if we do miss playoffs YES we would have collapsed.
we had 7 pt lead with 6 to go
Looks like we got ourselves a game now !!
if things dont change, there is no way youre gtetting a point out of this one, but I get it
CT
Maybe Gaborik could hire you as a coach in the offseason…I bet you could teach him a thing or two about hockey ;)
>>Cut to the inside Gaborik
And risk getting his nicely tucked jersey pulled out? Not a chance!
DJK I think you’ve done that enough for all us.
Also, people. PLEASE do not blame this game on Lundqvist if we lose. PLEASE.
You made it sounds like we already missed them bro….let’s just watch this this 3rd period…I won’t count them out…
better go safe is death rest of teh way. ughh now that stupid goal by kelly is really hurtin. it took that goal for us to wake up. i think we should eb able to geta point tonight. really gotta wonder what cally and duby are practicing in practice. they need to start practicing shooting!! it has to be the garden ice. they cant be that bad
and these young guys dont wanna let the old fart get all teh glory! cmon kids, score more! prospal is gonna be missed after this years over.
Vinny scores 2 when they move him with Stepan and Wolski. tells you plenty about the lack of production by gaborik
Red bulls instead of Gatorade please….round 2!
Has anybody explained all the pinging noises yet ?? It sounds like the camera is near a flagpole
they’re going to talk to Verbeek
on the radio after the commercial
JB, i caught you and am punching you in the arms lol
actually wolski made both of thoses goals
This old fart keeps them in the game, Mike. Along with WW whom everyone threw under the bus. He needs minutes. And you need to accept some of his defensive deficiencies. Can’t win every game 1-0
Little Ball of Hate (Patty Verbeek) is going to be on the radio with Kenny and Dave coming up next!!
CCCP, only if that dog my from pond hockey video comes along.
Somer – that’s the bell at Drury’s pizza place – dings for when the next pie is ready!
well, at least I know jpg is listening :)
Somerset: I hear that, too – sounds like pucks hitting goalposts!
U know bronzer is pumping up the team in the locker room rite now. Theyre gonna come out firing !!!
I’d hope Wolski is decently fresh considering how liitle ice time he’s got recently.
They can do it! I believe!!
I hope Vinny is the one talking to the team right now. Follow the old man, young jedis.
im also hearing the ping noises, lol
GO RANGERS
Good news:
Timmy Thomas doesn’t exactly have his A game going. Pucks sneaking through his silhouette. Rushing out at shooters rather than getting his feet set. Bad rebounds.
If Rangers keep it simple (no more drop passes Dubi!) and put everything on the net, they might get another from static electricity alone.
A point now would feel like a victory. LGR.
I better make lots of trips to the kitchen during the third! ( :
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Headzo… If thats true then drury can retire and leave that 5 million on the table for next season because those pizza pies are flying out the door tonite!! ha
Julie- sorry, but I think it’s kitchen time, girl :-)
I definitely think so ilb! LOL
Julie – It’s definitely kitchen time, girl!
Mickey Mouse – You better believe!! :)
This is the time of year that it really doesn’t matter who scores the goals, I don’t care if in between periods they signed and played Voros/Hollweg/Brashear/Poti, just tie this thing up and get it to OT.
Ha Ha true Somers
FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING
LETS GO RANGERS LETS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aww, Vinny’s grin there. He knows what this team will do. Tie it up and win this baby.
For all NN: give your team some credit. Torts can deny it as much as he wants, but his team is playing on wobbly legs. Last night’s 65 min + took out a lot of their strength. Especially on defense. And they are still in it. Look who is doing it today- the players who didn’t play much last night.
WEeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Oh no the PP :(
ok. this is the time!!!!
If they don’t score on this PP, then they all deserve a speak to each ball in their sack.
momentum killer
to quote a certain Michael McDonald
this is it!
OK, off to the kitchen!! ( :
cmon boys one pp please
Spear
wtf staal?? almost 4-2. come on
Staal looks gassed.
Staal looks gassed.
He knows they’re gassed, ilb. He just doesn’t want them thinking they’re gassed.
why in the hell is McCabe giving up the puck?!?!?!?
man they must get scared on teh pp.
i was wondering what a speak was going to accomplish
Dump in only works when you can outnumber the strong side.
gotta shoot from eveywhere this period, cmon Dubi
Fuggin Butt-Chin! Why even shoot the puck?? Honestly it’s doing nothing.
ohhh so close!
Carp
that was me and CT
with the very same thought!
whoa!!!!!!!
Yes, Carp. And everyone else knows
ok new plan. avoid PPs.
Boo!
just set up Caber for one timers from the point, one will eventually go in. even not on a PP
did ryder hit teh post? sounded liek it
Rangers are gonna tie it up on a fluke goal
i think they heard all the way to the blue seats
Eminger say
“Huh!! ME?!?!?!!?”
when he Sauer sent over that pass
fluke, carp, bass….......
All they need is one shot.
Carp noticed the D pair switch a full period before VS
Carp,
Do you still totally disagree with me about the way McDonagh has played? Tonight, 2-3 minutes of ice in the 2nd period and a -3 in the game….
Rangers playing better but still giving up chances.
gaborik sucks tonight
mccabe will have a shot deflect off a bruin and behind thomas
LOL! Lin, LMAO at fluke, carp, bass!!!
When Wolski wants to play he can be dangerous.
He sucks almost every night.
Linda – How can you call for a fluke goal? It’s a fluke! :)
>>i caught you and am punching you in the arms lol
Watch me slip right through your fingers.
Kris, yup.
i thought gabby was ok last game, i was expecting more
Papa John is a cooke sucker
more of that wolski-stepan-fankist line.. and get avery rotated in more. give the workhorses more of a breather
CTB, you should have bolded the word “wants”. This is the first time in a while I am seeing Wolski playing with some purpose in his game…
gabby must be playing hurt. thats all i can think of as to why he cant score. he can barely get in on the forecheck. hes been playing ok in other areas of teh game, but hes not a threat to score. in fact, whenever hes on the ice, i cant wait till he gets off, cuz it seems his line never scores at all anymore
No argument…I totally agree with you…He is dangerous tonight!
Dubinsky has been SO off lately.
wow duby is fumbling the puck all over the ice tonight. shoot it man!
Find a new stick Dubi borrow Prospal’s
Dubi, i love ya man, but your shots are weak tonight
you’re a slippery foe JB, that’s why i have duct tape lol
Rangers should secretly have INS revoke Gaborik’s work visa.
McDonut needs to fuggin rip that shot!
Feds has also played rather poorly tonight.
Need that last minute desperation mode to kick in NOW.
ddeb- theyre saving it for the last minute!
Uh oh, duct tape! Noooooo!
please god help us score a goal. i promise i will enjoy life if we do
I cant stop watching!
Just got home, I was listening to Kenny & Dave on the radio – we’re still in this game! Third periods are ours! Let’s get it tied up!
orr- mcdonut hardly ever shoots. he’d rather pass it to teh boards so we can cycle more. like we dont do that enough
Most of the Rangers players are burnt out.
Rangers should secretly have INS revoke Gaborik’s work visa.
***
Your posts would decrease by about 95%
stepan had almost nothing on that forecheck attempt. they are gassed now. 3rd period after playing yesterday is not in our favor.
cmon Rangers. show me your heart
Another wide shot
I might puke
Girardi can block shots, he just cant make them
Wow…Avery has a nasty shiner…
does avery still only have 3 goals?
lets go boys, get that tying goal
so wrapping your arms around a guys ankle is allowable?
Butt-Chin again! Useless!
cmon gABBY
running out of time on this season
mm that would make sense Grabby
>>Your posts would decrease by about 95%
And Gaborik’s contribution would increase by as much.
i’m sorry but Artie has been
quite invisible.
what is the problem?
at least Avery got a shot on it.
avery hit the net, right in the middle. no wonder he only has 3 goals, he sucks
My goodness, if Gabby only knew how to shoot the puck :P
time just flew this period didnt it? good try vinny. rest of the team sucked. can we win the next 2? we really have to now
The whole line have been ghosts. Dublowsky, Callaman, Artie. They’ve done nothing.
Lets not even get into EC. I’m not even convinced he’s playing tonight.
Carp
have you attended any Rangers practices?
seriously
what do they do?
answer in the future
because they really do not look like they
know what to do when they have the puck.
passer doesn’t know who to send it to
and when they figure it out, potential shooters aren’t
in position for the pass.
as if they have NO idea how to do anything
but hit and block shots.
this is much more palatable when you’re having dinner on beach, and checkng in next day from beach. Hmmmm. I am not quite happy to be back in reality.
Yet, I remain positive.;
DUBLOWSKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SCORE! YEAH! BIG!
Dubi!!!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The whole line have been ghosts. Dublowsky, Callaman, Artie. They’ve done nothing.
thank you!

Yeah, Dubinsky doesn’t do anything…
HOOOTCHEEE MAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey everyone, islander season tickets on sale, cheap. No line. Hurry on over.
Wow! What a win! What a comeback!
Can you smell the playoffs???
wow
Never a doubt. We were playing with them. Who’s next?
What a GUTSY effort!! Unreal!
WOW!
(speechless)
We just eliminated the LEaves
My friend Bill isn’t going to be too happy tomorrow. Too bad about him!! LOL
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD IN HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WIN!
See what happens when you believe.
WONDERFUL WIN!!!!!!! Best I’ve seen in ages!!!
we are in
wow!! vs. actually showed our Salute
Thank you Jesus!!!!! Thank you!!!
Well said, dde….I think I’ll have a long convo with mrs…..And I have some explanation to do to my dogs too
Stick salute has never felt better!!!!!
I should be exhilarated. Why am I disgusted?
I love this team!!!!!!!
JB, i done kicked your tushy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m really, REALLY happy for the young guys.
What a comeback! I’m loving it!
Deserving three stars. Vinny led the way in this one.
thats sauers first star i think cool
Trade everybody!
If not for Tanny Prospal, this game would have been over long ago.
I guess he’s not really a “Zombie” as some NYR fans have been calling him???
Fankist = MONSTER
what a game for Krisy to see!
haha dubys nuts!
How awesome was that group hug over at the bench after Sauer’s goal.
was there ever any doubt?
>>i done kicked your tushy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LinCPBIAOSM, if it means more wins, keep doing it, BABY!
=D
Cally and Boyle both block shots by crumpling down on the ice when the score is 4 to 3 – good thing this team blocks so many shots!!!!
I can’t believe what I just saw! WOW!!!!!
Holy Carcillo. I stopped watching when it was 3-0. Why did this have to be a versus game!
Lucky Krisy for being there to experience what a great win!
Magic Number = 3
That Dubinsky goal – all praise to Dubinsky – but never forget the work by Captain Callahan to get that puck to Dubinsky. He worked his buns off!
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im still laughing awesome baby
The only way it could have been better for Krisy is if Zook was playing and he won the game with a hat-trick!
Milbury cannot possibly be too happy about this result. He must be burning inside.
is the world about to end tonight?
vs. shows the Salute, 3 stars
and now milbury just complimented us!!!
you got a deal JB my friend!!!
that was teh best win of the season just because of teh implications. but that pitts win in ot and yesterday was pretty damn good too
Milbury can do what I told Julien to do a few minutes ago…..
I’m so excited and happy that I don’t think I’m going to get to sleep now. LOL
4TH star to VS for stick salutes & 3 sars
Amazing, amazing win, but the Rangers have to improve their overall game.
well you have to give credit to Torts for bringing in Vinny and Rusty
BTW, magic number is now 3!!!!
as far as playing a full 60 minutes we didnt, but holy crap whata comeback. my neighbours are hatin me now
You think Carp’s gonna feed us a big “Itoldyaso” sandwhich??!
i am STILL shaking!!!
what a victory!!!
WE ARE NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!
GO RANGERS
I PROMISE YOU ALL I WILL ENJOY LIFE .
U GUYS ROCK.
I NEED A SHRINK AND A CARDIOLOGIST
WOw – I feel JACKED up right now.
And there’s no denying that this team suffers from a lack of high end skill, but their heart is obvious. It’s inspiring to watch….
Duker – You got that right! We are New York! :)
Of course this happens the first time I joined Team Chicken Little.
Sorry guys…never again!
Dave Maloney screamed like a little girl when they took the lead!!!!!!!
Happy human count?
How is Milbury getting on Prospal’s case? He’s not having the best of years? You do realize he’s only played in 20+ games? Dope!
He has 21 points in 27 games, I think. Not too bad.
Sometimes being a dreamer is better than being a realist!
These guys, wow!
Or when they tied it – I don’t remember, but what a shriek he let out – sounded like he needed an exorcist!!
Question for Milbury: Did anyone see Lucic?
So what have we learned from tonight? NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR TEAM!
{{{{DUKER}}}}
Well, that was fun.
this must be the most bipolar blog post of year hahah. seriously what an ending! Prospal=reason we won. did you see him firing the bench up? I AM PROUD OF MY NY RANGERS. and i cant say that every year.
Milbury complained about Gaborik being MIA but it was his stick on the defensemen in front of the net on the GWG. Without that, he swipes at the puck earlier and it doesn’t go in.
helmet nuzzles and a stick salute….I am so happy.
Never, EVER, count this team out…..
to the game/season over people….shame on you.
Krisy, I know you won’t see this for a while, but you luck hartneller! Velkommen to NY babe!
>>So what have we learned from tonight?
You don’t have to play hard the full sixty minutes to win?
this is the NEW York Rangers, with the accent on new. they are not like the old Rangers of last year, the Joke-inen losers who collapsed in the clutch
this team is new, and gritty, and tenacious
the lovable monsters of comeback-iness
Headzo, that sandwich can be yummy, depending on the circumstance.
“You think Carp’s gonna feed us a big “Itoldyaso” sandwhich??!
Probably! And some of us might deserve it, but I don’t think even Carp thought they would come back after being down 3-zip.
Yeah, shame on all the game over/season over people.
It’s not game over season over, unless I say so. I’m the voice of reason, after all.
wow….. thats it…. wow.. i love my team
Helmet Nuzzles, Dubi Kisses and Torts pulsating Neck Veins all around!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how can you NOT be proud of this team right now???
Rewatching the celebrations after Dubi’s and Sauer’s goals… I think I just died…after much flailing with utter joy
>>Sometimes being a dreamer is better than being a realist!
Dreaming is nice, but sooner or later, you’ll have to wake up and deal with reality.
i wish i had this game on dvd lol
Hugs Linda :)
Never give up; Never surrender!
Orr – indeed…
Linda – If youd like it on DVD, I can send it to you. It’ll only cost be $2 or $3.
*cost me….which is not a problem.
Awesome stuff. And thank you, Tim Thomas.
As some of us spotted earlier, he was out of control all night, rushing out at shooters. This left him unable to close the wickets on Prospal’s first AND Sauer’s winner. Not square. Not set. Not good enough.
Despite the three against, LQ should gain some points over TT in the Vezina battle after this. The Bs should not be happy with their top keeper heading into the playoffs.
LGR.
i deal with reality most of the time, i like my lil dream about this team. I’ve been pretty optimistic all season, got down twice, but always kept the faith… Gotta be proud.
YEAHH BABBY !!!! WAT A BYUGFLIEN WIN!!!!!!
Linda, I referenced helmut nuzzles and showed the Dubi kisses at the conference I was at this weekend. And the Cally/Dubi celebration after the November OT winner vs the Pens. This ladies reaction after that clip: “did they just do what i think they did?’. Needless to say, I lol’d so hard.
ORR, your, and other people’s, “big “Itoldyaso” sandwhich??!” should come with bad tomatoes…...never give up!!!!!!!
Let’s go Kings! I hate these Sharks announcers, with their annoying “Jumbo Joe”.
lotsa Chara-shot-bruises in the locker room tonight….ouch
Wish I DVRed this one
ORR, the game/season has been over 981724 times according to your count!
Again, I’d like to see how many people legitimately believed anything would happen down 3-0. But hell…who cares?! What a win…
MAGIC NUMBER: 3
Tortorella deserves credit for more than bringing in Feds and Prospal….you don’t have the resiliency this team has shown time and time again (and that includes bouncing back after horrible outings like we saw against the Islanders – which EVERY team suffers from – the good ones keep them to a minimum) without the coach having a significant piece of it.
I think a lot of Tortorella’s tough act is just that, an act to steer attention away from the team to him. And plenty of the media and a huge number of fans get sucked right into it, too, which really makes that act that much more effective.
Am I about to annoint Tortorella as the Rangers saviour? Of course not – but he seems to get way more negative comments than positive (which again plays into his act, I think), so I’m just saying….
I’d like to tell you a story and believe me, you want to hear it despite my poor english (I’m from Ukraine). it’s 5 minutes to play and I simply can’t watch it anymore, just out of emotions. My 5-year old daughter ask me to turn on the music and I randomly tune the boom box and what do you think I catch? “Sweet Caroine”, of all songs. So she dance like crazy and in the end I can’t help dancing with her and then I turn on tv again and, WHAT A MAGIC, it’s 4:3 Rangers! and they score again while we are watching. This is 100% true; I’m just speechless now…
4th star: Wolski? he helped get things going with VP
not that i wanted to mention it during the game
Italian and superstitious run hand-in-hand ya know
but
i felt somewhat calm during the game
even at 3-0
and
then we started showing more
creativity in their zone
we weren’t clicking…....which made me wonder
how such play is practiced but it looked like we
were making moves, changing it up and more
IN THE MOMENT, BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was so epic…I am still smiling!
>>i wish i had this game on dvd lol
It will be a classic if Rangers make the playoffs.
Can MSG buy the rights to show the encore of this game?
great story DINAMO
jbyes, that’s called coming home from vacation :) but it helps when that pain is assuaged by a night like tonight….
I really am so happy to have found you boneheads!!! It’s so much fun enjoying a great game with great people! Thank you for allowing me into the “club”!
replay tom on nhl network from 2pm to 4pm
nyr fan
you rock kid.
jpg, you are schizo haiku tonight :)
LOL! eric, keep the faith bro!!
Jimbo, consider yourself a cardholder :)
tiki believed
Hey, I didn’t give up entirely, so I’ll take mine with fresh tomatoes!
Imagine we make the playoffs by one point? Canes fans would have to think aboot this game all summer long.
how bout being a season tix holder and having a baby 6 weeks ago and telling my wife i will sell all of my games except the last 2 home reg season game vs atl and devils because i know it will come down to that.
i should have held onto tonights as well
outstanding DINAMO!!! great stuff!!!!
One of the most unbelievable games ive seen in a decade … Plain and simple
DINAMO – LOLOL…so please turn off all Ranger games with 5 minutes left in the game if/when they are losing, make sure your daughter is around and turn on the music!!!!
Goodnight all. It was fun hanging with youse! People who understand what it means to be a Rangers fan. ( :
Thank you Mama – and welcome home!!
LETS GO TURN OVER MATCHBOX CARS IN VANCOUVER!!
>>Wish I DVRed this one
Interestingly enough, I had hit the record button because I expected to be on the phone. And, I didn’t even stop it when we were down 3-nil.
If anyone needs the entire game with pregame and postgame stick salute, 3 stars, I can send copies to Mama to give to you guys.
^ 5 TIKI! we kept the faith!!! and we were all rewarded!!!
that was an awesome comeback, character win. Im gonna go watch it again and drink more
JB, you need to plan your phone calls on NON GAME DAYS LOL :-)
eric, you’ll be at last game? e-mail me if you can make boneheads picnic…..lbabs@ol.com in case you lost it.
in fact, all, let me know if you’re around for picnic while I figure time and place.
thanks,
um, @aol…...
Jimbo: I just barged into this party….and, I think, got accepted without question. Even though I’m Canadian!
;^)
Being a Ranger fan is an experience unlike any other and only fellow Ranger fans get it. Try to explain to a non-Ranger fan and they don’t understand.
Too bad, so sad, I say, cuz they are missing out on something unique and after games like this, something truly amazing.
Or so I believe…
Great win!! Posted after the first that maybe we were playing rope a dope with and that maybe they punched themselves out.
Hey LINDA!!! Long time no talk, hope all is well :) im sure everything is after tonight :)
im sure the police are on the way to my apartment now…never screamed so loud in my life.
well said Jim!!
I really, really wish Sam had the call on this game. He loves the Rangers and he’s given his life to them, I would have LOVED to hear him call Dubinsky’s goal.
Jim, you nailed it…...OK all, til tomorrow. Must go moisturize :) Only 2 left, yikes!!!!
Hank should get the first star. He is awesome this year. we are spoiled with having him in net every night
Duker, we’re having some interesting weather tonight, and I believe i screamed louder than the thunder! I guess my neighbors just figured it was storm noise!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Doubly impressive win when you consider all the emotional juice they had to spend in beating Philly yesterday. And for two+ period tonite they were understandably flat. before turning it on in crunch time.
Winning two critically important games on no rest defines the character of this team. Hope it carries over into the playoffs, understanding still some work to do to get there.
In over 40 years of watching this team, this was one of the most clutch comebacks I’ve ever seen.
Sam would’ve put Gus Johnson to shame if he was calling this game.
Goodnight, Mama!
Jim, everyone here is very welcoming to newcomers – I found that out pretty quickly! I say welcome to you!
Where in Canada are you from, and how is it that you’re a Ranger fan?
I just watched the last 5 minutes again! Wow, what an amazing comeback! The Garden was LOUD!!
Scott, you said clutch!! +4!!
We’re in the same ballpark Jim. Being The only Ranger fan around for miles is tough.
that is how MEN play hockey
gonna be wearing the CALLY jersey in the Alabama sun tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow…. just….freaking… WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One of THE most satisfying Ranger wins I’ve EVER seen! Talk about a team saying fugg the fatigue…. “It’s just pain…..” 3-0? Oh….so this is where we’re supposed to mail it in, right? NOT so much! Not in our house!
I think I can safely say that tonight’s win unseated the November road win over Pittsburgh as the game of the season.
That was the best game of the season!! And tomorrow will be a sweet day for us ranger fans up here in new england!!
They played with such heart. And how fitting for the hard working kid Sauer to get the game winner.
It feels good to be a ranger fan tonight!!
P.S. – They pulled this off w/ their heritage Jerseys…. which many of us thought were a jinx. Apparently not, eh?
Jimbo: Toronto area, but I got my start (and OMG, I’m about to reveal my ancientness) when Donnie Marshall got traded from the Canadiens to the Rangers. At the time I was quite young and just starting to like hockey – my father knew Donnie Marshall so when he got traded to NY, I started following the Rangers.
When you’re like 7 years old, that’s all you need to form an allegiance. I’ve never looked back, despite all the pain and suffering….ie throwing my transistor radio around my bedroom when the Rangers continually got pounded by the Boston Bruins in the early 70s (not so easy to watch my favourite team on TV back then).
You?
Scott, isn’t it awesome? EPIC.
It feels good to be a Rangers fan every night, Winston! And to share that experience with all of you!
Wow! Don’t think I’ve ever posted after a win…
Great story, Dinamo. The chances of me falling asleep in the near future are worse than the Devils making the playoffs…
awww. I can’t help but wicky…..mama love to all who is “new” and/or from abroad or the great white north….take off! beauty!
Capebreton: Yep…and with all those down years when you proudly (foolishly?) declare you’re a Ranger fan, you sure get subjected to ridicule!!!
lmao ABIndy! hilarious
NOW FINISH THE JOB RANGERS.
I LOVE YOU ALL
Jim, been doing this since 1972, when I was five. With nights like tonight, it sure is worth it!
GREAT story DIN!!
nice offer Tiki
but
i thought that vs.
replays the game at some point
or it replays on nhl network the following afternoon.
just saving you some
postage.
Tiki… Put me down for a copy and i ll mail u a check for the 2-3 dollar cost. I mite even tip ya and round that number up to an even 10 dollars for ur trouble. Im gonna watch this game everytime im feeling down and out. Instant pick-me-up !!
I take back what I said earlier tonight…I love the new Tiki…unlock your doors and welcome him in for a beer or two.
Unfreakin believable. This comeback was one for the ages. Who said they were tired? Almost gave my poor dog a heart attack when Dubi and Sauer scored.
Wow, Jim! – I actually met Donnie Marshall and Bob Nevin at the timekeeper’s entrance of the Garden back in 1970, I think it was – I got interested in the Rangers (and fell in love with hockey) in 1967, the first year of expansion.
I live in Queens, New York – and I love the Rangers!
Toronto, and you’re not a Leafs fan!? How is that possible? ;-D
Wow, the amateur-hour, bush-league clowns actually won!!
EPIC
I dont need any money, somerset. Ill bring 10 copies with me to Mama on Friday with postage money, and she can send them out at her convenience. Good night, guys! Tonight was a pleasure.
Beast game of the year and we don’t get versus. Bettman is such a Putz. Banner day 855 responses Way to go Boneheads!
DINAMO, for personal reasons I won’t get into here, that’s a great, great story and it touches my heart. :) Sweet Caroline indeed….
Cape: Yep…it’s games like this that make it all worth the agony!
Dinamo, loved your story. Thanks for sharing.
I was wondering when you’d show up, Miami. Don’t you think Boston cookie cuttered it in the third?
Tiki=monster!
Sauer interview on Nhl network NOW
watching the highlights on NHL awesome
I hope Carp is still getting that buck-fifty per post!
Jim, I taught in Mississauga for a dozen years. Loved it!
Jimbo: Cuz I started as a Ranger fan before moving to the Toronto area. I do like the Leafs, however. But never with the same passion as the Rangers. No team has the same hold on me than the Rangers (yeah, I know, it’s kinda weird in a way – lol).
My wife’s a Leaf fan – we don’t get along very well during Ranger/Leaf games. Hell, our marriage almost dissolved when the Rangers lambasted the Leafs 7-0 back in January. She was on the phone to a lawyer at 5 zip!!!
;^)
Good man, Tiki!
Miami Pimple: Huh?
Carp may make around 2 G’s on this thread alone.
this was an awesome game, an incredible comeback and Im glad I got to see it all.
I cant wait till Drury comes back :)
DINAMO
I like your story but I got to ask…why was your TV off??? ;)
have we ever gone over 1000 posts?
Hahahaha!!!! Jim, that’s hilarious!! I can understand how your wife was feeling, however – glad she thought better of it.
OK on your almost-lifetime dedication to the Rangers – we’re one of the “Original Six”, anyway, so it’s not like you’re a Minnesota Wild fan, for goodness sakes!
Jim- it’s an inside joke with Miami. The more he bashes them, the more likely they will win. We asked him to do even more this time if the season. Team work.
“Carp may make around 2 G’s on this thread alone”
Carp, drinks are on you!
paille sux
LOL – want to put in on this 800+ commented post!! LOL!
GO BLUE !
I’ll leave you all on this positive note: if Detroit plays the way they can on Wednesday, we will need only one point on Thursday against Atlanta to get in. Nite, everyone.
although the nesn guys weren’t too bad
for the first period
our sound was off for the rest of the game
ah hah ha ha Rangersl rocked ronight
tomb, yes, but keep it going…....
ack, I’ve wicky’d my aasen off. Must go….til the review tomorrow. Can’t wait to see how carp disses you dissers :) TA! So good to be back! LGR!!!!!!!!
AGrossRecord
Torts classic assessment of his team. “We’ve got balls.”
Bwahahah!
Weekes is trashing the B’s on NHL
what did they say, Rangers never came back from 3-0 to the B’s in how many years? who cares?
You gotta see Dubi’s reaction picture on the TSN website….the best since the cup raising pic of Messier.
“We’ve got balls”
Massive balls!!
We’ve only gone over 1000 posts after a loss :P
Everyone loves to complain
OMG that TSN picture is amazing.
That’ll be my new background for the near future.

Was so jacked up from the win that I did the dishes, made muffins, unpacked from my weekend away, and made lunch for tomorrow. And I’m STILL flying high. After being dead tired all day.
It is my new facebook pic.
thanks for the heads up on the Dubi pic!
You’re welcome Linda, and thank you for remaining positive despite the horrible start to this game. It was tough to remain calm.
lmao mine too Cape!!
900
Dubi stole my RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROAR in that picture lol
KA-CHING!
Cape, i had a good feeling! I had a crappy day, and just had a feeling they’d make me happy somehow! Was a tiny bit perturbed at 3-0, but that feeling would not die!

With that goal, I am now voting for Dubi to be the team’s MVP.
“what did they say, Rangers never came back from 3-0 to the B’s in how many years? who cares?”
They said that since the Bruins and Rangers came into the league, neither team has ever come back to win when the other team had a 3-0 lead.
I think they said that both teams have played about 664 games over those years…
{{{{{Linda}}}}}}
Trade everybody.
new post.
We’re 3-1 against the Bruins, right?
We could be versing them in two weeks.
So, no Original Six team from the Leastern Conference has made it to the Stanley Cup Finals since 1994?
3-1 for the last two years
yee ha
