Start of the toughest month of the year, and of Southeastern back-to-backs (at Tampa Bay tomorrow) and of three in less than four days (Boston at MSG Sunday at 12:30).
Ya boys have won two in a row after an 0-1-1 skid (imagine, we’re calling 0-1-1 a skid?).
Ryan Callahan (bruised foot) is out. Steve Zipay reported that Callahan was wearing a boot, and on crutches today. The Rangers say he’s day to day.
So Big John Scott makes his Rangers debut. Ruslan Fedotenko is expected to move up to Callahan’s spot with Carl Hagelin and Brad Richards. Steve Eminger and Jeff Woywitka are prucha’d.
Martin Biron starts in goal. And Eric Staal faces his brother Marc for the first time since causing his concussion just over a year ago.

Feds….oh, the pressure…..
Cally didnt seem too concerned on the pregame
LETS GO RANGERS!
RUPP-MITCHELL-SCOTT!!!!!!!!
Let’s Go RANGERBOCKERS!
LGR!
Cally just had an interview on MSG, said X-rays were fine, feels “day to day”....should be ok. Scott said that when he first saw that the Rangers had tribute stickers to Boogy on their helmets he had to take a few minutes to regain his composure…they were roommates in Minnesota and close family friends. side note, Scott’s only NHL goal came in Carolina…..
Oh-oh! Biron starts tonight? I hope that his five-hole has some two-by-fours nailed into place to block it, especially early in the game.
Great news, Lev…
Went to the grocery store today. I have switched to Scott brand in support….
LOL Mama! Youre too funny!
LMAO, Mama!
As long as Cally is back for playoffs….
Cam Ward turned 7 years old yesterday…
My three stars:
1) Henrik Lundqvist

Greg, you’re lack of enthusiasm is so sad…:)
ov vey…your…not that anyone cares…but grammar bad
No , im using a different one but it aint too bad..not what i like but i can at least type on this!!!!

KILL CAROLINA!!!!
Mickey, I’m being zzzzzz positive….just extra protection….he will be back and lead us to the Cup!
Duguay’s still married to Kim Alexis – good for him!
Who the byfug is Ike Davis?
That’s the spirit Mama!
Really! Did not know that Jimbo….yes, good for them both…gotta be coming on almost 20 years? Lord, I am so not 26…..
Mickey!!
Mets first baseman, Jimbo. Had a bone bruise on his ankle, they put it in a boot and it got worse. To the point that missed the majority of the season last year.
MSG. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSs
1st Staal brothers reference. DRINK
Without googling….I bet most folks here don’t even know who Kim Alexis is….I do. And that’s why I am a fake 26er…..
Before game hattie for me! WOOT
Oh! OK, Mickey – please, no comparisons to anyone on the Mets for our beloved NYRs – we don’t need that bad voodoo!! ;-D
ha!!! new drinking game!!! Stall :) .......drink!
Jimbo….LOL!! and agreed!
Duguay’s a lucky man – far luckier than Gresch turned out to be!
LGR!
Yeah, Mama – leave that stuff for the Mets – they need an exorcist! ;-D
Why would Eric Staal be “happy and enthused” aboot the team? They’re not making the playoffs for the second straight year? Joe Mich is such an idiot!
I shall endeavor not to do that anymore, Jimbo.
Two Staals updates in one MSG intro. Good work.
Ok, I’m ready….Mrs wanted to talk. Anything? Staal has a brother, I hear?
Keep blocking those shots Cally. Next time you’ll get six weeks off.
I know how it feels, Greg. My PC died a few weeks ago and I need build a new guy!!
POLITICAL ADS.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Greg got a new PC? Does this one come with grammar check? :-)
That’s just a rumour from Rod’s ‘sauces’, ilb. There are no brothers in the NHL.
Oh-oh! Mickey’s hackles have been raised!
Let’s goooo boys!!
I miss John Amirante….
No hackles. I’m just sick and tired of political ads already. And we are nowhere’s near the election :/
Im usin an older but different one , and it has spell check!!!!!! No gramma check ilb sorry!!
GO RANGERSSSS!!!!! WE LOVE YOUSEEE!!!!!
I thought that Feds got killed in the last game – glad to see that he’s OK, and back in the lineup…
OK, Mick – get used to them – media spending this year is gonna be astronomical!
Hartnell….note to self….don’t cook diner while doing online Rangers stuff….
Hello Bon Scott!
John Scott scores a goal! Book it!!
for wicky….Bon Ami!!!
Scott’s out there..
>>>Hello Bon Scott!
Hoot, Mon!
You don’t need to tell me that, Jimbo. We’re already planning on that kinda spending… and the ours we will be working come October.
Big John.
You’re too young to know about Bon Scott, Mickey..
LMAO @ Staal’s kid calling Marc “Uncle Jared”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQZG4AJ-NPA
True. but I know his music and the story with AC/DC.
awwww man
ugh please dont let this be the kind of game where the goalie steals the game for the other team
Why the fugg did Richards pass up the shot? There was a wide chunk of the net open for him.
Hagelin on PP….We may have a long day on the blog tomorrow
35th Staal brothers reference so far. DRINK
This time of year makes me very very thirsty…
No mo ribs!
I dont understand the “thirsty.” Why would this time of year make u thirsty?
Put Man-Mountain Scott in front of the net on the PP…
Feels like the Rangers have had more shots already this evening than they did against the Swamp Rats on Monday.
If you choose to play the Staal brothers drinking again… you would be soooo wasted already.
>>>No mo ribs!
Mmmmmm…Ribs!
Mickey, can’t, or I’d be in the ER by now…...
*game
That is what I was saying, Mama. LOL
Good evening, Carp!
How are we doing so far?
>>>True. but I know his music and the story with AC/DC.
Hahaha! Your grandma told you all about him, eh!? ;-P
Does anyone know a link to watch the game online?
tiki, cause this whole next month is a big salty pretzel…
Le Capitaine is out? There goes the season!
Good thing I’m not playing it then…OMG…even Kenny and Dave just said Staaaall 3 times… club soda!
What does that even mean, big salty pretzel?
someone help mike…..mike, at least listen at http://rangers.nhl.com/index.html
STAAL BROTHERS ” DRINK!!!”
Whenever Joe Mich talks aboot Mama & Papa Stahl, I get so creeped out!
Tiki…it’s a Seinfeld thing….I’ll explain when we chat….thought you knew that, sorry….
Looks like a little friendly contest….Not too much animosity.
Know this about the Staals,
They use to put razor blades in each others diapers.
Mark would pee in Jordan’s chocolate milk.
Their parents would rent them out for medical experiments.
Thunder Bay Board of Education ordered them to be home schooled.
Bruins beating Devs 2-0
Eurosoccerpansy update
okie dokie Mama. Ive seen every show of Seinfeld and I dont remember that lol
WTB?... Boooooo-oooring!
Looks like the live streaming site domains have been shut down by the gubamint.
LOL @ BANJ
>>>Bruins beating Devs 2-0
Is Maaaaaaaaaaarty playing, ORR?
There’s a 25% chance that Sam Rosen has never downloaded the Rangers app, never listened to Booger and Cretin, never watched the Knickerbockers and has no idea what or who Foxwoods is.
As opposed to Skinner, it looks like John Scott DID NOT take figure skating lessons when he was young…
Scott can barely skate
Scott hurt already? The Black Cloud.
This period is so sloooooooooowwwwwwwww
What kind of name is Drayson? I’d have called him Roman Bowman.
“Stupid…stupid Brandon Dubinsky!” Maloney
:)
Stupid, Dubi.
Why would Prust attempt that pass?
it’s brilliant moves like that that make it easy to overlook the atrocious year Brandon Dubinsky is having
Oh geez louise.
Rangerbillies behind Torts
Dublowsky
Jimbo, yeah, Fatty Mcgee is in net!
Wow! Lucked out there!
Well. That was boring.
If Dubinsky got a penalty every time he fired something into the corner, he’d have 20,000 penalty minutes this year.
Torts is gonna ream Dubinsky a new one
uh oh…..:)
wouldn’t surprise me in the least if Dubinsky got moved up to the first line
Who needs Nash? (we did)
Thanks, ORR – that’s good – although IDK who I’d rather see win that game…either way, it’s not good for us!
Rolston scored for the B’s? Jeez, amazing for an old man!
kitchen disaster….will miss most of second probably….hartnell!!
Mama!! What happened? Did your cake explode!?
For their figure-skater Skinner, we have fast-skater Hags, for their Staal we have our Staal and nobody beats our new toy – soft Big Panda – John “kill ya” Scott!
So far so good, Sally!
How about me? Am I behaving OK?
The skunkbutt Fishsticks could help us tonight by beating Pfilthy flys – but they probably won’t!
Yeah, Carp, you’re OK now, but disappointed me yester night…lol.
Uh oh Mama… :(
On vacation in Florida, no game on tv. Anybody have any free online streaming links? Thanks.
Rolston real pro – earning his salary for new boss
Krejci & Seguin scored for the B’s. I don’t see Rolston on the scoresheet.
Ruh roh, Mama.
Making dinner myself. Burgers, mashed potatoes and spinach. yum
Whoever from Rangers will score GWG tonight, I’ll put his picture as my screensaver for next 24 hours. Promise!
sorry, 4ever, there were circumstances youse didn’t know about … it wasn’t just me flipping out.
Damn!
Figure skater…
That’ll wake them up….I hope
it’s amazing how even high shots end up going through Biron’s legs
Has Dublowsky done anything useful in the last month or two?
Have to admit – boring game so far…Lack of skills or good defence, I don’t care. Just gimme 2 points at the end, that’s it.
I could’ve stopped that
I know, I know Carp. ...Just feel for you.
I got to work on dinner and the Canes score? BOOOOO
On NESN, some kid just held a sign
*N*obody
*E*ever

“In Prust I Trust” sign behind NYR bench
Lol, Rupp looks like MZA when he is next to Scott
Dubi was benched
wtb?!?!?
finally get done w/ dinner
and bring up the board
and the 5-Whore gives up a goal!!!!
Good! He needs a wake-up call!
ummmm, so how is Chad Johnson progressing?
Dubi
sure is showing his appreciation
at staying in New York
ugh!!
Stahl might have just saved a goal there.
This is way more fun!
What’s bigger? John Scott or Biron’s 5 Hole?
Islanders- Flyers tied @ 2.
The finally woke up. There is something to say about two teams playing where there is not much animosity.
Dubi is in Chateau Bow-Wow….
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
ARTIE PARTY
ARTIE!!!!!
Artie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
ARTIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AA ties it up.
Wooohooooo! What a shot!
i felt that happening, baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ARTIE!! BAM!!!!!!!
Great fuggin job by Step-On!
Dubinsky in the doghouse goesinsky.
AA!!!!!
what? how did i miss that?
that whole thing just blows my mind a bit.
thought Gabby was too close to ‘canes stick to
make the pass and Artie was too close to make the shot
glad i was wrong!!
Wow, Richards! Nice creativity there!!! Idiot!
Some save by beer on to setup that goal
That is why we have Rupp and now Scott.
This team doesn’t take any carcillo, eh….
c’mon, let Scott beat someone up
Is Scott taking care of 2 guys at once? Nice.
That little plick!
Rupper is really lucky he didn’t get called for a minor. He threw a couple of punches.
Glad Staal’s okay.
Ouch
what in the hell is MDZ thinking?
he got the puck after the block
and had a major chance to shoot?!?!?
Did you Staal say “Are u ok?
Nice one behind torts
is eric staal like the neighborhood bully who just goes around injuring
all the other kids in the neighborhood?
can anybody on this team shoot a one-timer? apparently not.
Would really like a sinkhole to open up and swallow Flyers & Islanders right now…
That would be excellent, Sally!
Thanks Sally.
Figure SkaterOK….kitchen cleaned up….not a cooking mess, Mickey…but oh boy…..spillage and breakage…cats!!@!!
happy eve of 26th bday Hank!!!!
what I miss….gotta get up at dawn again tomorrow for work….fug!
can anyone read lips? what Boyle just said
Wow! Flys lead 4-2 in second – Piles really suck against every team except ours….
Well Mama, apparently Skinner used to figure skate and the two guys named Staal are actually brothers…
Figure skater update
Sally
can you make that sinkhole a little bigger
and add the pens?
I can, kinda, jpg, but was too busy here and cleaning…...
Fran Healy. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Dubi’s still riding the pines..
And the Debbies, Sally!? Please?
i think Sully and Torts should
shout behind Dubi every
20 seconds
“YOU COULD HAVE BEEN A BLUEJACKET!!
ACT LIKE YOU WANT TO BE HERE!!”
Olga, thanks…never would known that otherwise….interesting…two Staals? That’s more than are available at MSG between periods for the ladies…..
and add a couple of my former editors?
The whole Eastern Conference Sally.
That’s for Niklas Sundstrom.
did you see that femme’s reaction to maclean getting hit?
pretty funny
we really need a “like” button here…..
>>>ACT LIKE YOU WANT TO BE HERE!!”
HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Great one, jpg!!
Sally, what about the Devils and that team they’re palying tonight?
We had a 3 on 2 a few minutes ago, and Richards completely botched it, we had a guy wide open at the top.
Hi, 22!
Maybe they should tell Dubinsky it’s 3:01.
Can’t hurt Jonny Mac by hitting him in the head – hardest part of him!
Lol, Scott has soft hands…Sharp shooter.
It would be cool if the Flyers ice turned into the Sarlacc Pit from “Return Of The Jedi”
what’d i miss?
Long time since I watched a game with the boneheads.
Getting hit by the puck like that will make a man lose his giddy-up.
giddy up!
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
WHOOOOOO GABBY!!!!
billy….my nightmare of a night….and we’re 2-1!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!
Let’s see if that’s a fair goal.
Hahahaha!!!! whEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
GGGGGOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL
Woohoo! Gaborik?
“right off the shaft”
Gabby
WOOOOHOOO GABBY!!!
Yup, #30
who said assists don’t matter? Steppers!!!! to Gabby….score!!!
“He’s not Pavel Datsyuk…but’s there’s certainly a lot of similarities when Derek Stepan has the puck” Maloney on Stepan….
GABBY!!!!!
“Maybe they should tell Dubinsky it’s 3:01.”
Bwahaha!!
blogmama, pinch yourself, this is not a dream.
hmmmmm…..we’re doing pretty good without Dubi
in the lineup…...
prust sayin’
WOOOHOO!!! My feed froze right before that goal!
BANJ, not the WHOLE Eastern Conference! But I’ll work on a 2nd sinkhole for the Devs “and that team they’re playing tonight” LMAO…
On that goal, Bickel just put a nail on Eminger’s coffin…
Bickel = this years Sauer!
maclean just asked muller
if he should go
out with the 3rd checking line
Pansification…
billy…:) already had my nightmare tonight….now it’s all Oz…..
You realize Muller is the functional equivalent of Chris Drury, right?
Two minutes for jostlin’?
Another limp power play…..we need a witch doctor…
Better period, eh?
wow! Dubi didn’t see a second of ice time.
wonder if he’ll be back in the 3rd
or Cialis for the power play….
Incorrect, Joe…The goal they gave up is what woke them up. And they just added another gear. You can see why Carolina isn’t making the playoffs.
first two powerplays looked pretty good.
lots of movement, shots on goal
perfection would have meant goals scored
but they were better than majority of this last one.
Sally, sooo sorry….Dubi getting dumped on….
Sally/Mama
i would love Dubi to be what he’s supposed to be
but you would think that after the trade deadline weight
taken off of him
there’d be some boost in his step and he’d show
Torts/Slats how happy he is to stay here.
he did alright things last game
but nothing better, especially in offense
mistakes make it worse tonight.
I guess so, jpg – but it would be nice to get a goal from the PP once in a great while.
Pitbull! WTB!?
Or is it Pitbooool!? ;-D
i really like how they added this scott guy
Hattie!
Maloney is going to talk to Cally on the radio in another minute.
Am I the only one thinking that maybe needs to sit a game or two and maybe bring up MZA? Maybe that lights a fire under Dubi’s assen and wakes him up in time for the playoffs.
Jimbo
absolutely agree on that!!!
jpg, I agree….
he is an enigma wrapped in a better player,
who is having trouble this year
I don’t know/get why
Carp?
I was saying that in October, N.Country. Haha…
Cally on radio NOW!
crazy!! montreal’s campoli’s holding wild player
while white is punching him
is it a scene from Slapshot 4?
been catching up started watching dvr at 800. can we get a pp goal to extend leads. please one time
“Has Dublowsky done anything useful in the last month or two?”
His ugly sweater was ok…
mama loves Cally….
Hartnell with his 31st goal a minute ago – I’m convinced that the Mayan calendar story must have some validation…
5-2 Flys over Fishies..early 3rd..
Or is it validity? I think that’s what I meant. Anyway, no way that slug should have 31 goals – not even in 2 seasons worth of games..
Hartsie leads the league in PPGs..
Sweeet , Boston now losing to the devils!!!
What a shot by AA!!! OMG I spilled my drink when it happened!!!
Was eating dinner, what did I miss??
Hartnell 31 goals
Clarkson 25 goals
Ugh! At least Cooke and Carcillo are not scoring much.
Iknow NYR_FAN but I think it’s now time to give it serious thought, Dubi has been good on the pk all year, but we need some production and no stupid plays. Hard to believe he can have a year long slump.
My eldest nephew is one strange person.
The look on dublowskys face is priceless!!! Poor guy , come on Torts he learned his lesson!!!
GO RANGERSSS!!!
LETS GO GO GO GO GOGO GO GO GO GO GO HO GO!!!!!!
5 bucks Dubi is still benched
HOW STRANGE IS HE?
Girardi misses Callahan?
props to Torts for benching Dubinsky.
Mickey, does he wear black nail polish and complain aboot no wifi???
prustttttt
CHUCK
Wooohhhoooo!!
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Girardi is having flashback to last season tonight.
a couple of scary ones already.
Wow…beauty b and p
PASSSSSING!!!!!!!
PRUSTICLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Prustie!!!!!!!!
BUT! Another dandy of a goal. 3-1.
what a beauty is right, sam!
PRUSTER!!!!
Wow, Boyler with the pretty backhand feed.
dime-a-dozen.
Prust
uhoh i must be behind the times again….. yep there it was..
good for those guys
Orr, my nephew?? Nah, he’s just a regular weird 13 year old boy. LOL
RAAAAAAAAAAAAANGERS!! stick it to ‘em!! NICE PASS BOYLE!!!!!!
The officials are part of the play. Get over it, Muller!
hey coach stop yelling Ward shouldve stopped it, he didnt, 3-1 NYR.
Boyle has been a monster tonight
Muller have wooden teeth?
GregZzZz: Always spilling, never spelling
The look on Brandub’s face is priceless…
It’s Prust a goal…..
It’s going to take something special for anyone to break into my three stars. It’s been the same three guys reinforcing themselves since the end of the first period.
MDZ left the game, hip.
MDZ out. Brutal.
No more DZ. Ruh roh
Devs tie the game in Boston, 3-3…
Del Z injured. Uh oh!
OMG…no..
Biron should give those posts sweet sweet lovin’
when no one’s around after the game
because they deserve it
hahaha….Marc dumped Eric…love it!
So 4 D the rest of the game pretty much. With another game tomorrow night. Yikes.
Didn’t MDZ take a hit to the hip the other night? Wonder if it’s the same hip that’s bothering him?
Dubi wont see the ice again tonight….... he me might see it on the way to the locker room.
he can help it if he’s a little slower than some mentally. I love that guy.
Would love to see Marc just totally Matt Cooke Eric. What a story it would be! And how does Jordan react to it when playingarx? Would he avenge Eric?
sneaky Gabby.
I love the work ethic of Haglin, he never quits on a play.
The injury bug is starting to hit the Rangers now.
Eminger and Woywhisky’s ready to jump in…
>>I love the work ethic of Haglin, he never quits on a play.
The kid is making a fan out of us all.
Now Girardi is hurt. Ugh!!!!
no not Danny G now…
beer on.
And now Danny is hurt. :(
uhoh now Girardi
is a-ailin’
Carl Hagelin is a living legend.
Ouch
Two guys that were Nash bait injured.
cally foot del zaster hip weve been fortunate all year please dont let injuries happen at this time of year. woywitka def goes in for del zaster tom.
Oh bloody hell
Jbytes…shhhhhhh!
p.s. some of us have been Shaggy Haggy fans for a while….
I’d rather see a few minor injuries now with 20 games left than later with 5 left.
would rather see some bumps and bruises now
than at the end of march
wtb! !!
would like to see reg win by either devs or bruins
Beer on needs this win. really needs to win this for Hank. oh yeah….and Cally
against a cellar dweller.
\
It’s just pain, Danny – tough it out!
“He was big”
– Joe Mich
my bad eminger for del zaster not woywitka
Nice play by Good Marty there
Nice play, Martin!!
Beer-ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At this rate, John Scott will have to take a defenseman shift or two
MDZ’s body language is saying “owwwwww”.
MSG commercials are great. Just showed one about how the Knicks are a team and how it’s not about the name on the back. After weeks and weeks of Lin-only promos.
Keep blocking those shots boys. Breaks heal in six weeks.
think Dubi turned to Torts just now and said
“Hags took a penalty and i bet he still gets ice time!”
Lin must be great. He’s got the Knicks all the way to .500
Scott at 4:58 of TOI so far…
Well, there is still plenty of time to heal before the PO….
Danny’s back. Thank the baby Jesus.
nice clear by Prust
Girardi “shook his head yes”? Is that just a French thing for Biron?
ok Mickey Bobby
Prust win, Prust win…..oy me oh myoh….
lol. tomb. so right!
This Bruins/Devils game better not go into OT
Mickey, early Christmas!!!
Same right hip for DZ. Iliac crest….er..hip pointer :-)
nice Pk
Dubinsky is brain dead so I counted that as an injury.
wonder what Sam was watching
by sayin’ that MDZ “ran” into the post
kaleta pushed him…DUH!!
Hurricanes are baaad
I hate HATE to say it, but please Debs win…
LOL Mama. Christmas is fun.
sadly
you see the difference between
Boyle’s play
and Dubi’s
Boyle is trying harder to go to the net
and shoot and make plays
and made a great pass to Prust
Dubi…..not so much
Why Debs? Better off having the Bruins win.
Lol, BANJ…
rather bruins win
4 mins great here we go
Yeah, at least if the Bruins catch up to NYR, they’ll still be in 2nd. If the Devils catch up, then NYR drop down to 4th, or maybe even 5th, which I’d hate.
Double kill
4 minutes. C’mon PK!!
think Boyle is going to come back to the bench
and ask Torts to let Dubi play?
Sorry all….hate the Debs, but I got a thing going with my beaner cousins….Boston must lose…especially Sunday!
take the shot AA
That would have been so pretty
LGR!!!
Artie confused
thought they were ahead
33-1
so he made that stupid spin-a-rama pass
its imperative we win div and not be in a 4 vs 5 matchup to have long term playoff sucess
LOL @ that shot by Boyle
Can’t hit the ocean BB ?
put Dubi out now maybe he can score now!
Muller=Boom Boom? :-)
don’t know why Boyle waited til he got past
blue line.
did that just to make me look bad for
complimenting him
eric….I have every confidence we will…
Cally with the empty net
LMAO @ Skinner!
Stralman?? WHOA
i like to see Stralman Stiff
(I LOVE MY WIFE!!!)
ilb, that’s an insult to….oh wait, I promised myself I wouldn’t get into that all…
Watch out for Skinner’s toe picks
take skinner off great trade off
Bruins/Devils in OT
Skinner hit him with ur purse
Skinner for Stralman. Good trade…
Look at this little figure skater.
Skinner is like an angry puppy…
worst case scenario—b’s/d’s in Ot
Great math guys
...what a little B@#$%, go back to figure skating
Really good kill
hahahahahha at you all
Dubi empty netter?
i wanna see John Scott pick up Skinner and eat him
John Scott takes bigger carcillos than Skinner!
Beer-Off!!
Dammit….
Dang
Oh good not Adam Gravy…....
buckle up
Hang on
We have 39 seconds to kill of this game and these idiots are concerned about who scored the goal.
Soft-ron!
I just notcied, Torts looks halfway decent tonight. Normal color suit. Normal shirt. A tie that doesn’t make you dizzy. Good stuff!
there’s more Ranger’s fans left at the game than Canes fans
PRUST!!!!!!!
That wasnt an icing!!!! What a piece of carcillo.
Icing close
Prust gets one of the stars
jpg’s sister thinks he should get the hat if we make it through
next 9.7 seconds
IN PRUST I TRUST!
sigh
BRUINS WIN IT IN OT! AHA, AHA!
WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Prust with the last play. Dime a dozen…
Take the W and move on 3 in a row
2 points.
good win, nice to see Beer-on get the win he had a good game and made some big saves.
Staalid!!!
Prust, with the hat and the first star!!!!
Biron looked pretty good tonight.
back to early season form
even if he did let one
through the 5 Whore
mama love….LGR!!!! Oh my…Gotta be up at dawn again so TA!!! til tomorrow….Yay!!!!!!
Biron played well tonight.
Dubinsky better be the first one on the bus. (Sit in the back Dubi)
What a good job of penalty killing in the 3rd period. Good win. Well, is there such a thing as a bad win?
Dirtbags!
That was a very weak icing call – again! Why do we get snagged by those calls all the time!?
Anyway, we win! I really thought the game was over after Prust’s goal.
Prust was a rockstar tonight!
Prusty deserves the hat tonight
Ollie just scored for the flames
remember when he did that with us?
me neither
Not our best but 2 points nonetheless.
Season high 16 games over .500. Wonder what we are going complain about tomorrow. My guess is Dubinsky. Followed by how useless the signing of Scott was. Any other suggestions?
Yeah, B’s didn’t let the Debbies get another undeserved bonus point – Bruins had plenty of chances to win the game in regulation, but they couldn’t get it done.
I hate the Debbies – and they’re in our division, so byfug them!
Wooooo!!! Lets go Rangers! I love this team!!!
And I got no problem with Torts benching Dubi all game. Whatever it takes to get him going again. Plus, all those close-ups of him on the bench are exciting opportunities to see him pick his nose!
Prust <3
Prust
Gabby
Staal or AA
That was Biron’s arm, Dug? You need some serious anatomy lessons.
Banj, c’mon, you’re being racist against Alaskans! Back of the bus? That’s low! If Rosa Parks was around, she’d give you a Semin bongo slap!
Torts id giving Dubi a little dose of “tough-love” – Dubi needs to smarten up and get his aasen in gear for the last quarter.
Dubinsky isn’t very bright. I think he proved that tonight…
26 games over 500…. WOW!!!
16, IRS …..
Gonna love to see Scott throw Lucic into the 200’s on Sunday
Geez, of course it’s 26….
Victory Cookie!!
i would play dubi with richy and hags while cally is out. he needs to find more of an offensive game playing with boyle and prust will have him more in def role.
WE WILL NEED DUBI TO SCORE GOALS IN THE PLAYOFFS TO GO FAR.
BANJ? Excuse me? Did you get a refill, lol?
Orr , what are you thinking? We want Boston to lose , NJ is on a 4 game losing streak ..they are a joke and Im telling you to not fear them. We are gunnin for first , are in first and we plan to keep first in the east so yeah we want Boston to lose. We are also in the presedents trophy race and that one is the close one to watch. Not this stinkin East…we already prove were the best so far.
Tied for 1st with TWO games in hand over Det-wah!!! Yeaaaaaah buddy!
you think Dubi will be 1 of the 3 stars tonight?
Man do not cross Torts. He did the benching down by 1 with Cally out.
Dubinsky needs to use his brain, what a moron.
Torts presser should be cringeable…....
Islanders are still using for the playoffs I see….
I don’t think Lucic will dance with Scott – who’s the other goon on the B’s?
Pushing*
Did we win?
I actually thought Hahelin was very good tonight. Ditto McD
you know you’re good when your back up goalie is 11-3.. I love this team LGR
Sally
Dubi didn’t exert himself enough
to even create a booger nugget
Hard working win. Gotta love Prusty, as in SIGN the UFA, Sather! He did it all. Their line was awesome. And, wow! We win with our second string goalie! Great ‘d’.
We’ll lick our wounds and see who can compete tomorrow night. This is attrition time. Hopefully everyone can get some rest as we wind down and get ready for the BIG SHOW in 20 games. After being at MSG on Monday, it’s pretty clear we are better and deeper than the Devils. I only fear Pittsburgh and Boston in the east, but most importantly, the injury bug. Stay healthy boys. Stay healthy.
GregL, I’ll take some of ORR’s punishment – we just hate those byfuglien Debbies – and I, for one, would like to see them fall out of a playoff position.
I really don’t fear the Bruins – they are a flawed team at this point – many aspects of their game are just not working right. Not to say that they won’t get it “fixed” before the playoffs start, but right now they have problems.
Greg, just to be on the safe side, I’d rather them lose. Never know what can happen.
I worry more aboot the Pens taking over the division than the Devils though.
It would be awesome to finish first. Then we’ll have home ice throughout the playoffs. Of course, unless we finish second in the league, and go against the first place team in the Cup final!
Chico was whining like a little girl tonight on behalf of Kovalchoke – Kovy is frustrated because he hasn’t scored a “real”goal in 6 games, and he’s pressing – and it’s got Chico on the Midol….
totally agree with ORR ive been preaching for weeks worry about div first then east then presidents trophy. no guarantee the west winner is sitting there in finals if rangers are there and trail in pts
Lol @ Torts. Short description of Dubi’s penalty.
Wow! Habs blew a three goal lead in the final four minutes of the third. Jeez!
Hahahaha!! Habs and Isles are in the sweepstakes for the bottom of the east division!!
Boyle wears the hat.
Dubi the dog collar
Yes, Torts that was an insanely stupid penalty by Dubinsky.
Lucic isn’t really a goon, he’s Boston’s Randy McKay. I believe Shawn Thornton is their goon.
Habs saved by the skills competition. Shame!
Yes, DJK – that’s what I thought, too – Thornton, that’s the guy I was thinking of – he’ll go with Scott, I’m pretty sure.
don’t know if this has been posted yet
but an interesting story on nhl players and smoking
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/writers/adrian_dater/02/29/players.smoking.cigarettes.nhl.hockey/index.html?sct=nhl_t11_a1
They won in the SO? Damn!
Roszival scored for the Yotes! LOL! When was the last time someone said that?
Jets beating Panthers 3-0. Huge divisional game. Jets need a regulation win against them.
Anyone see if Rupp finished the game? Knee?
“Ad the difference between me and you carp, is that if this team came out and looked great, i would be the first one to eat my words and say i was wrong about turderella, and be happy i was wrong. You,n the other hand, refuse to even acknowledge that there is a potential Ranger disaster here, and that the clueless coach “in charge” might be implicit in what is happening, or more accurately what is not happening.”
LW, you know mama loves you…but you’re just agitating now….dirtbag :)
Jets pouring it on the Panthers. 6-0!
TA! LGR!!!!!
Aaaaand LW with the great quotes from October. LOL
It’s a real shame Prospal re-signed with the Jackets. I don’t know what he was thinking. He would have made a nice addition to a contending team.
I absolutely love seeing Artie score…usually his goals are pretty….
sick pass by Gaby on that goal…
Ugh! Bob Errey on NHL On the Fly…
We dont need to worry about any other teams. We just gotta go out and play our game every time out there and we’ll end up in 1st.
He’s got a nice wrister. Hopefully he bulks up over the summer.
“this is the most thrown together pile of garbage in Ranger uniforms in years.”
LOL….
Lw, sifting the logs are ye?
matty
Pat Leonard replied to my tweet question on Rupp
said no update
jpg, I remember Keenan going ballistic on Zubov for smoking, then they traded for his boy, Larmer, who smoked.
I used to smoke when I first started covering games, and I’d go into the room to do post-game interviews and half the team would bum cigarettes off me and light right up in the room.
Carp, that’s awesome.
thanks, jpg. Bit of a costly game. Sam said Rupper wears a knee brace. It didn’t look like it just needed some adjusting. He went down at an awkward angle. That means G is sore, and we lost MDZ and Rupper for a bit. We have some depth and can find a way. The more we thin out now, the more tired the guys will be later on. Games like this can become more significant than the score…..
smoke if ya got ‘em?
so, they gonna get serious come playoffs and ditch that ridiculous hat or what?
Funny story about smoking…. When I moved here 18 months ago, I didn’t know that smoking in public places was still allowed. So I walked into a Denny’s one morning my first week in STL and the hostess goes ‘Smoking or Non’. I literally stared at her speechless for a few moments, then she asked again and my reaction was ‘What??’ Took me a good 5 minutes to figure out what she meant and to give her an answer. I was so used to NY and the northeast being smoke-free that to be somewhere it wasn’t was a total shock to my system.
I remember Pierre LaRuche, “I’d like to give up smoking as my new year’s resolution. Boyle dishes the best pass of his life tonight. great goal.
Mickey – Us too when we moved there! Saw people smoking at the airport; was dumbfounded! But we were really blown away walking into a waffle house for the first time – major smoke fest!
LMAO yet again, LW.
new post.
(carped self)
Oh Mickey—how about the hard liquor on the shelf in the grocery store? We had to special order haddock too – the seafood people at the supermarket never heard of it! Weird place ST. Louis. My wife hated it (me too).
ok, this is what concerned me was injuries. Rangers have been healthy for the most part all year while other teams, Pitsburgh, boston, flyers and devils have had injuries during the season. Yesterday I posted how the most important thing for me was for the rangers to make the playoffs healthy and get a 1st round favorable match up. March has barely started and already Callahan is out and now Delzotto. Hopefully this will be the extent of injuries but Girardi look injured tonight blocking a shot. It’s a real problem but hopefully nothing serious happens and the rangers go into the playoffs healthy. Winning the president cup and the eastern conference means nothing to me. Biron was excellent tonight so that should silent the biron complaints and prust was ridiculous, prust saying.
