Last chance to see your boys before they jet over the ocean for a couple of weeks.
I imagine there will be a fair amount of stuff to discuss during and after this game for a lot of reasons, most of them fairly obvious.
NHL.com did an analysis on the Rangers today in its 30-in-15 series.

Let’s do this, boys!
Go Rangers!
Woo! Game night!! Can’t freakin wait!
Fishler’s so annoying!!!
I’m here sitting in section 118. God I hate these fans. Some assclown that looks like he just got out of jail started screaming “Lundqvist sucks!” at me before. Hope the rangers can show them what’s up
Go Rangers!
unfortunately I gotta DVR the game…thank goodness for DVR’s!
I hope you smuggled in a steak knife, Joe.
First Go Time for me with the gang this year. God, I missed it.
LGR!!!
LGD!!! (dvr ing the game as well)
I think Jagr is playing
ilb
Welcome back!
I’m in a cab going home from the city. Just picked up a new HDTV Monitor with TV Tuner for my office for only $400 bucks! A steal! Gonna hook both of my PC’s up to one screen!
Let’s go Rangers!!
lets rock!
Lets Go Rangers!
Old friend is an enemy now. Or enema :-)
Or a taser Joe
EC & Mitchell shouldn’t even be discussed. Send them to the AHL!
Avery being all friendly with Jagr. Trade him!
Lol, did Avery mention Jagr’s sister?
how body have a link to the game. i am in nashville at work convention and need a site i could go to
Here we go!
Anyone have a link PLEASE
Weeeeee!
THOOOOOORRRR!
Woo hooo. All Avery, btw!
Flyers fans are no longer booing after that goal. 1-nil.
link?
Torts with a decent tie….Things do change, eh
gotta love microphones too close to the ice
get a 24/7 taste of Avery threatening
giroux for flyers hit on Sauer
Feels funny seeing Jags playing against us in a Flyer uniform – I wish he didn’t come back to the NHL.
Good looking PP. Without our main guys.
No one can hit the net. That sounds familiar.
ut oh
Weise needs to stop. You’re not tough! Stop fighting!
Damn! Who is this Rinaldo?
LGR! Good start so far.. hope Sauer’s okay.
Sorry, Ria, I don’t have a link.
Weise just punched his ticket to AHL
OUCH!
Weise sucks at fighting,maybe the worst willing fighter ive seen!
morg, you took the words right out of my mouth. Weise is useless.
Weise makes anyone he fights look like they’re Probert…
Weise wants to try to impress someone – he’s looking for an NHL job somewhere, obviously.
Morg- Voros.
Avery is talkin some smack tonight!
What a piece of shyte
Good for Bickel.
WOW Old time hockey!
Since when does Travis Bickle play hockey!? I thought he drove a taxicab!?
A couple will be sent off, for sure.
Don’t waste your time, Carp. That’s what he wants.
Shanahan is going to have more work after tonight’s game.
that was an absolute boarding call from the flyer
on Deveaux
ignorant assens!!
“You talkin’ to ME!?”
Avery’s jersey came off; I think he should be tossed as well.
Avery did get a good sucker punch on Simmonds while the linesman were holding them
also
who is the flyer who took his own jersey off?
wasn’t it the same player who got the boarding call?
This is why Rupp should have been playing. Bad call by Torts. Should have went with tougher guys.
That Simmonds fella is pretty big…..he looked huge facing off next to Avery….
I thought they were supposed to call every push from behind to the boards. Missed 2 so far on the same side of the ice.
Yup, no question Bickel did what he should’ve done.
you’re right, ilb. Though I’d love to meet him one day.
Dubinsky should challenge Jagr.
this is why i don’t like the idea of Hank in there tonight.
Oy…..
flyers suck!!! Hate all there fan base and the city, the back end of new york and they stink.
Great! What would have been a five minute PP turns out to be a 4 on 3 against us. Just great!
this is also why mcIlrath should have been in there tonight.
btw,
concerned about a future of
nothing but 5’9” forwards
as i look out at our opponents
who, other than briere, all look
around 6’2”
maybe we need to bring jessiman back, eh?
I don’t know, I think he would have been beaten up, like Weise.
So, I guess there’s two Sestito brothers in the league? One in NJ, the other in Philly?
He’s still got that shot.
byfuglien
jagr, of course
Jagr still has it
Crap!! I have a feeling that we’ll be seeing that a lot this season when we play Philthy….
old man can still shot it eh?
Jagr is DEAD to me…
geez,
can you say a
fight for 8th place?
and shoot it..
sorry
i’m a brat
tonight
Oh, fer the luvva pete…..
Lundqvist doesn’t look as impressive as our MSGHeads are claiming.
How pathetic. We let a guy board one of our own, and he pretty much gets away with it, cleanly.
Idiots! Send these fools to the AHL! I wish Booger was still around!!
>>Jagr still has it
He might get fifteen goals this season, not much more.
sadly, Jimbo, I can see it happening too.
Olga, I agree
I’m tempted to break something right now.
Evening gang.
Anyone got a link?
They’re self-destructing right before our eyes here…...
my first real chance to watch a pre-season
and i’m getting this absurd mess?!?!?!?
Jagr doesn’t look right in orange
Torts is about to throw up…Watch the tie, John!
it’s on Vs
JBytes, unfortunately they may be 15 goals at important game winning times
tough guy eh?
I feel the same way, ORR – and it’s just a preseason game.not good…..
Never mind torts, I’m about to throw up watching this nonsense.
Good lord this is bad
Hanks wonderful puck handling has caused an injury to a Dman (Sauer), and Erixon is a human pylon.
Half of that 15 may be against NYR, though, JB…that’s what I fear…..
Jagr and Parenteau are gonna kill us this year.
jpg, thanks for letting us out of towners know about VS!
I got Flyers feed, but ehh…
so nice to see jagr doing all the
things he didn’t do in his last year
for us.
wonder if he’ll hold up during the year?
ilb,
are you home yet or watching on your iphone
somewhere else on the planet?
Lol. Avery drew a penalty.
LOL! It amazes me how many players fall for Avery’s antics.
yeah Manny
out of towner here too
i’ve been listening with sound off
Avery turtled… per the Flyers announcers. HOO BOO, this is is gonna be a looooooong game
ok only first period and it’s tied, let’s be positive
you can see why it’s unfortunate
that flyers got simmonds from l.a.
he’s their type of irritating
player
just once I would like to see Avery man up and drop the gloves. who cares if they get a power play in the pre season.
Home, jpg.
Sauer isn’t back?
i have the sound off.
With the way Simmonds is going all-out at Avery, I really hope that we’re not gonna hear about any racial “crap talk” being used after this game is over…..I have a bad feeling about this.
EC sucks.
I agree bull dog. His antics are so unmanly
it look like sauer hurt his right shoulder going into the boards. Hope it isn’t serious.
He’s had a few decent fights, bull dog. I don’t think he is afraid to fight
He’s trying to help the team by drawing penalties – he’s playing a role, not trying to be Colton Orr…
actually now I visualize it, sauer pointed to his left shoulder.
Flyers with three boarding majors in the pre-season. Crazy.
FIRE CAMPBELL!
Who cares if it’s unmanly. He’s an agitator. This is what he does. Why is it a problem all of a sudden?
John Mitchell? I thought he died a long time ago!!?
I hate the Flyers. Possibly more than the Devils.
Sigh.
how many more freaking penalties can we take??! Preseason’s been brutal so far….. tell me it’s just because we’re giving guys looks and the team is a shell of what it’ll actually be…. geez. PS… Dubinsky’s been invisible thus far…. again. That is all….
Thuresson back to the AHL!
always amazes me how the flyers can find
all these young talented players
and then becomes this massive
piece of carcillo neanderthals.
not saying i don’t admire toughness
such as a
CREASE CLEARING DEFENSEMAN
but
year after year
they become a team loaded with
sociopaths
Yeah, we’re getting the February Dubinsky here in the pre-season. Hopefully he’s saving himself for the games that matter.
unmanly?!?
are you kiddin me?
a player can’t take a few f-bombs
in the line of duty
that’s his problem
and if it takes him off his game
and works to our advantage
then hurray for us!
nice hit
I care that his antics are unmanly because I watch the games with my nine year old son. It’s a shame that there is a need for “agitators” who act like Avery in the NHL.
Avery appears to be everywhere so far… Both good and bad.
isn’t Boyle supposed to be mic’ed for this game
thought i read that somewhere
wonder if they’ll show this tonight
or on Rangers site at a later date
with all the things that have gone on in the game so far, Avery needed to send a message and kick Simmonds ass. you think the flyers cared that simmonds took a penalty? that was no time for his antics, it was time for action.
ilb,
I would never say any hockey player was scared. that is not what I was saying.
jpg- it the flyers jersey that makes them all look like criminals. It’s like an orange jumpsuit. Prison garb. Even Jagr looks thuggy in orange.
Jpg, don’t you think it’s because that is the team’s “philosophy”? After all, Bobby Clarke, Paul Holmgren are in the front office…..and the ownership probably encourages their players to have a sense of controlled mayhem in their game.
Huh?
Avery’s antics in the playoffs vs Marty a couple years ago are about as unmanly as they come. Its who he is. Not everyone values masculinity and that’s fine. I just think he’s an embarrassment.
heres alink for those who dont have
http://www.vipbox.tv/watch/9021/2/nhl-preseasononversus:-new-york-rangers-vs-philadelphia-flyers.html
The MSG guys played a “mic’ed up” replay of Boyle on the Thuresson goal – maybe that wasn’t played on the Versus feed, though
That was a brutal and needless/pointless fight by Weise.
Nice moves by Christensen, but he still sucks.
Avery with a great assist.
With Weise, Avery, Mitchell and Thuresson we got some nice depth, just hope nobody is lost to waivers.
I think Sauer might be seriously hurt maybe dislocated shoulder.
Avery is amazing.
Zuccarello is all over the place.
Flyers look to be a lot more physical than I thought they would be, but not as physical as us.
Stu Bickel looks not bad.
Deveaux looked pretty good and looked fine after taking a huge hit from behind.
Winston, you sound like Chico Resche.
6 suspensions in the preseason. Man, I love what Shanny is doing in coming down hard on them, but these players are just being idiots.
That was an annoying period – it’s only preseason, but…....
It’s been 10 hours since a trade Hagelin comment.
Rangers look ok so far. They need to get away from this goonery and just stick to playing hockey, which they appear to be doing better than Philly. Weise took the beating of a lifetime. Avery is all over and really controlling the puck well. He should get consideration on the top line if he’s going to play like this.
They just played the clip of Sather smack talking. What an idiot. I hope that dude falls off the betsy Ross or something.
Avery is very effective against dumber players like Simmonds, they just can’t ignore his agitation.
Sorry, I don’t mean to sound like Chico. But it is a challenge to have a 9 year old son who plays youth hockey whose name happens to be Sean and to convince him that he shouldn’t emulate Avery on the ice.
Winston
it’s not Avery’s fault that
the stupid broadcasters
put the microphones
up right next to the players benches
either that or the philly guy standing there
has a very live mic
Avery played hard
and he jawed at simmonds
and the flyer is not used to
it and took the bait
listen with the sound off
Pretty tough to avoid the goonery when you’re playing in Philly and the opponent wants to continue it….
Weise is a bleeder, at least a guy like Voros almost never looked beaten when he lost fights. Weise really should reconsider just fighting for no reason. Defending teammate is fine, but looking for a beating is just dumb.
So, because your son is named Sean, Avery has to fight more??
Flyers=Goonery
Boyle sounds like he deserves an “A”
I hope Sauer is ok, that’d be a big loss
Jagr in orange just looks wrong and weird.
ahh. Jagr is a pilon. wait till midseason.
Whoa! For a second, I thought #33 was Rozsival
Voros was the guy people beat up on the way to fights.
oh, if only we got campoli
now, we’re byfugliened!!
Eight game suspension for Wisniewski. All regular season games.
I’m just getting here. What happened to Sauer?
omg!!!
i had that flashback too
No, Avery should fight more because he runs his mouth and to not back it up is unmanly. I hate to see him yapping at someone then when the time comes to fight he turtles.
no Sauer
shoulder issue
according to tweet world
That’s Tort’s fault.
Two minutes for averying.
oh well
someone is hacking our names
i guess it’s my turn
This team is already so banged up.
DFTT, guys…
This game is pissing me off.
better to be that way in october
than march
Shoulder for Sauer? OH NOES. Can’t this team stay healthy? :(
Jagr again…
junior high must’ve let out already
LOL! Jagr with two.
well
again
jagr does what he didn’t bother
to do in his last year for us
I miss Jagr. A lot.
DFTT, retards…
i guess someone is bored
This Jagr scoring against the Rangers is going to happen all year long, isn’t it?
Forget winning this game. Play dirty! I don’t care!
probably
he looks healthy now….of course
since he’s not with us anymore
I have a feeling that MDZ and Erixon will make the team by default…
Uh, in Jagr’s last year, he scored 71 points and had 5 goals and 10 assists in 2 rounds of playoffs (I believe he was leading the playoffs in scoring at one point).
So to say he didn’t do anything that last year is simply false.
And yes…I’m a Jagr apologist. Sue me.
Dubinsky = Bust
LOL EC
ha Orr I was gonna say, “dont say it”
I think you guys are too concerned with Jagr. It won’t be long before he goes at it with Pronger; and we know he doesn’t score when he’s pouting.
MDZ looking a lot better offensively tonight.
You just freakin’ knew that this was gonna be the case…..Jags is gonna kill us this season..
What a shift by Zuccs
Great pass by the half man
Nice pass by MZA, eh…Trade him
Great goal. How about that play by Sauer to keep it in the zone?
Tie score!
Hobbit Wizard!
A zucca zucca zoo… A zucca zucca zaa!
I’m thinking Jagr will wear out before January.
Get Bickel to the AHL
Well, Torts wanted to see which young guy can make the team to play on PK. Here you go, John
There had to be an agreement made before the game to allow for each team to practice their respective special teams during the game…
>>I’m thinking Jagr will wear out before January.
And he’ll wear out his welcome the following month.
Sather talking trash – Jeez…..what is this, Pro wrestling….?
Just incase anybody is reading this out of context or has not already assumed this, that is not actually Carp.
PK sucks.
Oy…...great PP defense…....
Oh, I meant McDonagh on our second goal.
Our PK is missing a lot of our key PK guys.
I still hate Jagr, moody weirdo one trick pony.
Der
LETS GO RANGERS! Clap! Clap! Clapclapclap!!!
Um what’s going on in here…?
Damn! Too bad Bourque didn’t get more of Bryzgalov!
Bourque’s looked good so far.
Hi, Sally. DFTT
Da Derp Dee Derp Da Teetley Derpee Derpee Dumb
Hi, I’m Brandon Dubinsky… I collect a paycheck, play at 50% and I’m too cool for school…... It’s sad, I used to like the guy.
Flavah!
can you guys ignore the troll instead of egging him on…
thanks
That didn’t take long, lol. Boyler!
Pond hockey here…....No “D” at all…...
Hi Ilb! I’m happy you’re back!
Devaux got boarded twice. He’s been only on the ice for three shifts, lol
gee I wonder who the troll is? must have forgot his meds.
Man, what a chippy game…..
What is it with this Deveaux guy!? There seems to be a lot of Flyer animosity towards him?
Welcome home, ilb!
I haven’t noticed anything special out of Brayden Schenn he was supposedy best prospect outside of NHL.
Jimbo, it’s racism against Bahamian’s! It has to stop!
Thanks, guys….
Interesting game, eh…
Trade him, huh, Bob?
I didn’t really see what was wrong with the Talbot’s hit on Deveaux.
Could be, ORR! Unless he has some history with the Flyers that we don’t know about…?
Absolutely horrible period for MDZ in his own end. If Sauer Power is hurt and stahl is worse than imagined, the first 2 months could be ugly.
Poor lineup choice torts. Newbury, rupp and McIlbeast should be in there with the rook Herman monster in net.
WTF!
I’m really upset with myself that I’m posting this, but, you guys who are all like DFTT are contributing just as much to the troll’s antics as those who are actually responding to him are (no offense to any of youse personally, and I realize I’m doing the same thing that I mentioned). Just have to completely ignore it.
On a positive note… the more I think about it, the more I’m not worried.
I mean look- We’re missing Cally, Gabby, Richards, Prust (he’s a killer!), Bathroom Staal, Rupp….. To a lesser extent…Wolski. That’s 2 O-lines worth sitting out.
If we play as poorly/undisciplined w/ all of the above in the lineup, then I’ll hit the panic button.
Okay, that is all…
You can never have enough good defensemen – we thought we were flush with them, but just one game, and…........
I’m trying to figure out why they paid Bryzgalov that much…
MDZ does look uptight in his own end, SN. He’s got very little confidence. Still. I think it’s up to Torts to work on it.
How many times does Giagnome plan on saying “via”?
Spot on about MDZ, ilb. Also glad you got home safely!
Has Valentenko cleared waivers? He might go to Europe after all.
And Girardi doesn’t look overpaid today at all, eh. Where is Wicky?
According to the widget, he did clear waivers, ilb…..
I think I figured out why Devaux got boarded twice. He can’t pivot. :-)
Thx, Jimbo. Bell might be another option.
LMAO @ Butt-Chin singing “Sweet Emotion”
Wow, that was a penalty.
Wow! All the crap they called all night long, and they don’t call that? Unbelievable!
That looked like a textbook example of hooking – I thought stick fouls were a priority to get right!?
Oy
Softqvist
McD with giveaway.
Jagr is unreal….
Hawaii 5-0 time yet? siiiigh
Three goals, two assists in two games for Jagr.
Avery not returning. Unmanly?
Jags sure looks rejuvenated in this game – maybe playing in the frozen tundra of Russia for a couple of years took a few years off his age….?
Damn! So close.
Devaux, btw, had 23 goals and 23 assists last year playing for Chicago AHL club…
>>> Bell might be another option.
He looked pretty good in that last game he played in…..
Hartnell has a heart?
I thought he was short a brain….?
Hartnell
Heart Null?
Such a boring period.
Good shift. Hagelin can skate. Trade him.
Hagelin pretty much blows.
Mitchell looks great.
yea i know orr. rangers just knockin it around barely connecting a pass. mitchell tried hes got adecent shot. dubys been pretty crappy. first period was great. aves n ec were playing good
The same Mitchell that’s already played nearly a 160 NHL games and who the Rangers were able to acquire for A 7th round pick.
Flyers should have saved Jagr’s first game against us for regular season, now we know what to expect.
hagelin does kinda blow. theseflyer rooks are all better and hagelin doesnt look like he will do much. hes a bust. its the big boys making a good impression
All our prospects suck.
snoozefest!! wtf happened? they quit already?
hanks been beat like 12 times already. bunch of posts and crossbars. we need staal back! please get better staulsee
I just heard Anisimov’s name. I did not realize he was even playing.
nice pass to nowhere ec. get the hell outta here please
dz is so weak. puppy power time!!
Jagr on DZ is like a Dad playing with his 5 year old kid. Dad’s gonna win every time.
Done like dinner
that was the worst 3rd period effort ive seen ever.
This pre-season has sucked. I’ve had enough of this. Bring on the regular season!
OK, boys. Let’s get the real team and go to Europe. And let’s hope Sauer isn’t hurt
Crapola!
So who are two forwards to be cut after this game?
dz is done
Zuccarello looked good. Flavah looked good. Jagr looked better than most of you thought.
Let’s go Europe?!
cut dz and chrstensen. done. boom. another 1st round bust
Very disappointing game – true, we didn’t field a very competitive team, but with a lot of young guys looking for a spot, they didn’t show much….
And yeah, we saw what to expect from Jags – but that doesn’t mean we can do anything about it!
FIRE SATHER!
Problem solved.
hey the one trick pony is back.
Del Zotto and Erixon are not looking too great. I have a feeling if Del Zotto doesn’t pick up his game soon, he’ll find himself either traded or in Hartford.
jagr was awesome and had a harder shot at 40 years old than any of our pp d men. actually, i think hes got a better shot than gabby right now. well, its still preseason. we’ll see how he holds up for the winter classic. but damn he impressed the hell outta me. hes got instant cemistry with giroux. after what?a week? we couldnt get him someone besides nylandr to centre him for 3 years.
Ok, on break at work and dvr’d the game so I’m not reading any posts to avoid spoilers….
I hope thuresson and deveaux don’t get cut, I hope it is ec and a young guy
I hope jagr looks crappy in orange and we when!
Back to work and then dvr in four hours
Night assens
Win, not when….bad night at work
Game over. Season over.
Trade everybody.
And all Nylander did was skate around in circles while Jagr decided whether or not he would play that shift/night.
So what’s up everyone? I missed the entire game, but just scanned through the blog. I will have to catch MZA highlight.
Oh and, this made me laugh:
“Olga Folkyerself September 26th, 2011 at 7:31 pm
Jagr is DEAD to me…”
lolol
Really worried about Sauer. That’d be two out if four top defensemen.
Carp—if you are around, I just sent you a short/quick email. Please read it, sir. Thanks! :)
Ilb, what happened to Sauer? :/
billy- appeared to have shoulder injury. Did not return.
Night, ‘heads…
im so depressed. our best player is willie mitchells brother. cant wait for next training camp when jt buster cant crack a spot over erik peewee hermansen. we need drury back.
Willy wonka widget is reporting sprained shoulder for Sauer. Out a week at minimum.
Thuresson and Deveaux cut.
NOW EVERYONE ON THE PLANE.
new post.
ilb, hold me. im fragile right now.
