Game 3.
Bruins at Rangers.
Opening-night rematch already. Then the Flys tomorrow (so light up the Empire State Building in Orange 
and Black for Mr. Snider).
Ya boys sit 0-2, and panic has set in amongst the Faithful (even though they started last year with three straight losses, albeit with the two Bettman Bonus Points they achieved for losing).
Arron Asham (groin) will not play. Stu Bickel moves to forward and Steve Eminger makes his season debut on defense. Henrik Lundqvist expected to start in goal.
Oh, yeah, it’s an NBC Sports game, 7:30 start; so no MSG tonight. But you do get Milbury, so there’s that.

A few reminders:
-Don’t forget to vote for the Three Rangers Stars in our poll over there on the left.
-We are planning our third Live Chat of the season Thursday at noon, sandwiched in between Bruins and Flyers, so that should be fun. Be there. Or else.
-I still need volunteers to make the Three Rangers Stars selections for my game reviews for Games 12-48. If you are interested, please drop me an email at rcarpini@lohud.com and I will assign you a game (even if you’ve already done one, no prob.).

Grabby doo doo is in affect!!!
LGR!!!!!
LETS GO RANGERS !!! LETS GO RANGERS!!! LETS GO RANGERS!!!!
yeah Carp I CAN’T wait!!!! BIG GAME!!!
Tonight is our night bros and girols!!
Evening gang.
MUST WIN.
I’ll be shocked if Rangers get a point out of this one.
Did you guys know that this an original six matchup?! Did you?! Thanks NBC! What would we do without YOU!
PS. Jeff Skinner used to be a figure skater! Bet you guys didn’t know THAT!
Somebody left the gate open!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does anybody think there’s irony in the Somebody left the gate open commercial being immediately followed by Dulcolax … makes it easier for you to go?
Apparently lockout doesn’t improve anyone’s brain function. Listening to Milbury, it could be quite opposite, in fact
FIRE SATHER!
I wish part of the CBA stated that Milbury could not be associated with the NHL in any way
EDZO!
ilb , I agree , hes a moron!!
FIRE OLGA!!!!
lets go gog og gogg og gog ogo Rangers!!!!!
One of the signs the NHL has a long way to go in order to recover from this mess. Dulcolax.
LMAO, Carp.
What a pile of crap this whole rivalry thing NBC is trying to force on everybody … these teams haven’t played an important game against each other since the 1970s. The fact is, the Rangers have more of a rivalry with every team in their division, plus Washington, than they do with Boston.
Uhh, NHLN why are you showing stuff about the Kings??!
NEXT
If they could get rid of Milbury and the shootout, I’d be all for another lockout.
It’s a tremendously tremendous hockey night with DocDzos!
Edzo says Nash can score 40 goals every year. Twice in nine years is a little way off every…
Ka-chow!
I don’t think math was Edzo’s major LW
It’s 7:39 pm…do you know where your 7:30 puck drop at?
The rivalry goes back a long way, Carp. Or am I thinking of Marchand’s nose?
Hey twice 40 goals in nine years is better than once in ten years…or something like that.
It’s a good thing Marchand doesn’t play basketball. If he did, every time he crossed the half court line, his nose would violate the 3 second rule in the paint.
LGR!
Oh, duh, its NBCSN. I am such an idiot.
“Nash can score 40 goals every year, Doc. But 78% of the time he doesn’t, Doc.”
NOW LET’S GO!
amazing Marchand can ever stay onside.
Boston-Montreal is still a great rivalry, but that’s been prolonged by some recent playoff series. I don’t really see them having any other true rivals, maybe Philly?
What, no fight or penalty? This is a marked improvement already!
Marchand once took a goalie interference penalty while standing in the defensive zone.
Is Murray the Cop playing for Boston?
the pitchfork comes out already.
100% of people called Dougie are either Canadian or Scottish.
Girardi blocking shots that are going five yards wide, like a trooper…
The team actually looks… decent. A lot more awake.
No, Pierre, the officials don’t ask for a review … Toronto tells the officials it’s being reviewed.
what a job by chris rooney on that call… greatest call ever maybe
Wooohhjoooo
BEAUTIFUL!
Gabbo
woooo. They look a lot better tonight.
oh my… what a pretty goal…
OK, that was pretty
GABBY!
Who predicted Gaborik with a goal this afternoon? Dudley?
Great patience. 1-nil.
YoGabbaGabba!!
Rick Nash!!! Gabby!!!! Hey Hey Hey! Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey!!!!!!
SICK GOAL!
OMG , IM HAPPY : )
That was a great shot.
That’s why Gaborik likes to play his off-wing (and Nash and Kreider).
Season not over?
NashBorik!
Not yet, Carp lol
Kreider should have nailed that guy
Double wee!
The Great Gabbo
That’s how you play this game! Wooooo
O snap!
Boston will take a timeout. 2-0.
BOOOYA! 2-0!
Yeah!!!!! Kill them!!!! Murder them!!! Decapitate them!!!! Rip their necks off and piss down their throats!!!!!!
gaborik for 3 tonight?
How did that puck make it to Nash from Richards on that first goal?
nash drawing 2 defenders and gabby all alomne for tip in
Two goals in one period. Is that a team record?
Gotta be a fight now, right?
GABBY
THIS.IS.AWESOME.
Loved the set play and inspired by the tempo. Rich Nash is quickly gaining idol status in my mind and for all the lows, this is enjoyable. Not calling the game – just saying that it’s nice to see potential realized if only half a period.
BOOM.
Carp – Pierre likes to make up facts.
Dang, Gabby again!
Carp, is it too early to say :”Nash-Monster”?
PHEW!!!! Made it home just in time!!!!!! Now this is New York Rangers hockey!!!!
Good evening all!
Great start…
Dudley, wasn’t it you who predicted Gaborik would bust out tonight?
I see a gaborik-trick comming!!!
this reminds me of those playoff games last year where the team that just simply needed the game more usually ended up winning… pretty obvious that the nyr feel like they ‘need’ to have this game tonight…
also, pierre couldn’t possibly get any worse here… he’s horrendous
Chris Rooney having a very good game – where did he ref in juniors?
Look what bringing Stevie Minger back does to the team.
Nash exceeds expectations. He’s better than was promised
Tomb – I agree.. Easy Kreider should have nailed him.
everybody looks like they’re trying harder when the puck goes in the net.
ONE WORD SO FAR TO DESCRIBE GAME = DESPERATION.
NASH IS A BEAST!!!! LOOK how he holds the puck…He dominates it. He worth Dubi ,AA and 3 first round draft picks!!! What a steal!!! Sather is a genious.
Can i still vote?
Also, Boston looks exactly like the Rangers did on Saturday.
S T R E T C H I N G
Dobermans? REALLY DOC?!
Stepan is an out of shape pig!!!!
Pierre would be perfect casting if they made a movie about Elmer Fudd?
bs call…
Just a lucky guess – didn’t see two in the first 8, that’s for sure.
Nash is really fun to watch – good for the NHL to get that guy in a major market. I watch a good bit of hockey and simply hadn’t REALLY watched him enough to appreciate his game.
“Tough call” – Brian Boyle. Accurate.
much better back checking and then Boyle with an offensive zone penalty
Does the set play on the first goal qualify as evidence of strategy ?
Kreider taking a little piece of every Bruin every chance. Kid’s got to play that way.
Percolate??? What, are they brewing coffee down there Pierre??
Carp ..his pieces need to get bigger and stronger.
The Rangers dominated the first 8 minutes of the game, regardless of whether they scored or not.
Doc Emrick is a complete toolbag. Instead of mentioning the reigning Cy Young Award Winner RA Dickey’s knuckleball, he had to get a mention of Tim Wakefield in.
Baseball update
playing with boyle and pyatt won help kreider
Yup, Papa. That kid’s going to be just fine.
Dial it!!
I like these lines much better. That looked like some sort of obstruction penalty on the Bruins though.
Kreider is also backchecking with purpose tonight.
I don’t know why, but I’d love to see Pitbull get his ass kicked.
Carp, my comment is awaiting moderation?
Pitbull update
Torts looks to be sportin some hair gel in the front, I attribute that to the stellar start tonite
It won’t hurt him, either, eric. He needs some d-conscience with him for now.
I love Torts.
jam grind
JAM!!!!!!!!
Really great coach interview. Learned a lot about what Torts is thinking. Got some in depth info about his strategy. Glad they spent time doing that. Wasn’t awkward or pointless at all. Love it.
Lol, they both looked annoyed at each other
Waffled
Skateboarded out to center
By the way, Kreider’s playing with Stepan and Callahan tonight.
Stepan…. You out of shape floater..
Somebody left the gate open!
Shut the front gate!
I thought this pox on advertising had disappeared. I suppose not.
Are we the demographic that Pitbull will influence?
Buffering…
Buffering…
Buffering…
Instigator for McQuaid?
boyle had a great pk that shift
Oh Boy-le
any instigator on mcquaid?
Was…. Torts just loving a player? REALLY?!
There should be an instigator in there.
boyle takes one for team…maybe more than one
ppg would be humongous big here
Anybody see that conehead in the stands?
That’s a weak extra penalty on McQuaid.
I love Boyler. But c’mon… Body shots??? You’re a heavyweight for Chris sakes.
Too much from Nash there, but still really cool.
Fierce on the puck.
That was the Gretzky half-bathroom of instigator calls.
pp regresses – decline next one
Boyle needs to learn how to fight. Geezus… for such a big guy, he’s TERRIBLE.
boyle is a very tall middleweight…cannot fight for some reason
Guy’s not a fighter, Papa. Give him credit for going. ...
I saw him Olga. Scared the bejesus out of me.
1st period analysis. staal alot better then first 2 games same with gabby and stepan..
2 bad penalties and a horrible PP at the end else the rest has been good.
PP at the end was ugly, absolutely new offensive zone time or puck control.
callahan and kreider did not have strong periods….
At least Boyle knows he can’t fight, so knows to just hang on against someone like McQuaid. Surely better than opening up and getting smashed in.
Emilio Estevez could have led a better pp than that
Man I thought Gaborik fumbled the pass on his first goal but he just got it and out-waited Rask. What a great shot.
>>Anybody see that conehead in the stands?
He reminded me of Peter Garrett, lead singer of Midnight Oil.
3rd line played very well against Lucic line
Gotta love the hands on Gabby when he roofed that puck. And no, it is not too early to call Nash a monster. The guy is the real deal!!
LMGO, JBytes.
It’s music to the ears to hear there’s only one more regular season game after this where the Rangers will have to block Chara shots.
disagree about Kreider and Callahan.
Nice Midnight Oil reference – Blue Sky Mine – nothing is safer than a hole in the ground…
—-He reminded me of Peter Garrett, lead singer of Midnight Oil.
Or the biker- teacher from weird science.
Malkin is the best player in the world.
callahan got stopped trying to get it out of the d zone twice and kreider still seems a little lost.
just my opinion watching on tv. in person much easier to see the whole ice…
That Nash guy is pretty good huh?
Good period. They need to keep it up!
I just thought Kreider (other than the penalty) played a really good, solid period without the puck … which is where he must improve and quickly, and Callahan was Callahan.
Easy Kreider needs some eye of the tiger.
Much better effort. I’m sure the rangers will get better as the season goes on.
Just caught up…I’m pretty fatigued.
So bad at faceoffs.
good job clogging up neutral zone all period
3 out of 15.
Too many penalties.
More Jammage needed!
Well fudgenuts.
Dougie… sounds like a little kid.
I thought that puck was tipped by Nose’ Feliciano in front.
But, yeah, the trouble starts with the lost draw.
His father was an Olympian and his mother was a hamster.
girardi with the goal – please tie up man and stop playing goalie
Raise your hand if you’re sick of hearing the name Dougie
Stawl looks really really shaky
penalties have to stop.
Stop with the penalties!!!!
first that clown del zaster gets beat to start the period now the team is freaking lost again
Pierre should ask Torts if they’re tired during the next interview.
This Dulcolax Hamilton kid is pretty good….
Ran to the ditch to fix his bayonet.
You may be sick of hearing Dougie, but think how much worse it would be to have to listen to Michiletti saying what a strong young body Dougie has.
They’re not going to survive the second period playing like this.
Rangers are getting really good at deflecting shots at Lundqvist.
He goes easier, ilb.
wouldnt hurt to establish some forecheck at even strength. where pruster when u need him
Make me watch the Dan Patrick show.
This period blows.
Are Chara and Gaborik countrymen and friends?
movement on the PP!!!!
are they related to the STaals?
Wow. I think everybody on Boston is the real deal.
pyatt on second pp unit
Wow, that PP unit looked better than #1 unit
They are both from the same city- Trencin, Slovakia
BOYLE. YEA!! LOL
MISS PRUST!!!
WE NEED THE P
Coors light- if you don’t like beer, but just like to pee a lot.
Yup, PP looked better with Stralman on the point, even Girardi. Why? Because they can and will just get it to the net.
who win this in the shootout?
Pierre can’t say “Dougie Hamilton” enough.
strahlman with very good pp shift
pyatt over kreider on that unit
pathetic
Getting thirsty…
richards was tripped by chara behind net, should have been penalty
This Bruins team is good.
nice backcheck morons.
stepan is getting worse each day
wtf were the Rangers doing there?
nice job boys. big raises coming!
Wooohhhoooo
Now that was lovely.
nice response lets go
pyatt reddems us!!!
Nice
Fedostinko Jr.
Wouldn’t have happened if Dougie Hamilton was on the ice.
Dirty goals are welcome. 3-2.
i love u tiki!!!
pyatt with very strong game tonite, even penalty earlier was a good hit
Not getting thirsty…lol
kreider on bench next to bickel…
carp!!! i love u man!!!
Stepan’s got to get better, no doubt. To say he’s getting worse is a stretch.
HAHAHAHAHA! WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?
im getting me and u a drink just in case cccp!
Nice glitch there by NBC showing Lucic
Where’s Orr? I always think of him during that stupid, stupid, embarrassing R-A-N-G-E-R-S song.
Milbury then traded Pyatt for some magic beans.
Somebody sabotage that stupid song
Pyaattttttt!
I don’t know which one is worse – that one or the gate song.
That was a nice quick answer to the Lucic goal.
Sounds great, grabby!
Uh, oh, the gate’s open again.
is the gate open?
Emrick keeps calling him Pie Hat.
Taylor Pyatt has impressed me so far. Happy for the kid.
Anyone seen Stepan lately? Played pathetically in the playoffs and has continued till today.
guys like stepan hagelin and del zaster need to take games to next level to get us to where we all want to be.
by the way bruins/hawks cup final these 3 would be off the wall
Mute the gate! That commercial makes me nauseous I swear…..
Staal has been brutal again today. Kreider continues to look overmatched and Boyle looks more like Rupp than Lucic.
That said, Stralman having a great game and Nash/Gaborik going strong. Hagelin has been noticeable as well
I like the gate song…
SOMEBODY LEFT THE GATE OOOOPEN!
PRO Bowl- A trip to Hawaii ruined.
nice play rupp, dope, hagelin with the non goal
Great job Rupp.
the ref from center makes the call not the clown 2 feet away
Well, I’m glad they got a goal anyway…..momentum :) oh Rupper…..
2 minutes for Rupp-ing
nice penalty by Rupp, worse replay by NBC.
Rupp hands were waist high
Had to call that
And that’s why players don’t have the chinstrap tight. To draw penalties.
Callahan is being himself
I never thought I would see Rupp beat anybody to the puck. Wow.
Cally still blocking Chara shots? I can;t figure out if he’s brave, crazy or both.
blockin shots !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this an original six matchup? Is there any rivalry between these teams? Is the chat live now? Any update on Suaer?
Rupp had a head start coming out of the box.
Even with a head start…
sauer is opening the gate
God I missed hockey
Callahan! <3
cant have staal and mdz vs lucic line
hey lev
Carp
Who left the gate open?
babs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks like Pyatt’s getting more minutes, with Callahan and Stepan.
Somebody.
lev, i want u to know, that despite all our differences, i still hdbvhvbcudbcbnjuwihyeqchn anytime buddy!
I did not see kreider at all I think.
bickell, halpern ,rupp(sucks), kreider, and emminger all 5 minutes or less.
hagelin looks bak. retrieving pucks and skating.
need kredier to get going.
girardi needs to play his position and stop roaming for the hit…
i guess torts thinks kreider is playing as bad as i do….............
carp left it open, me n the heads fell down and got concussed
Grabby! We had differences?
more Dougie Hamilton talk.. time for the mute button
That wasn’t a change-the-momentum fight. That was shooting-the-puck after-the-whistle fight. Those are the kinds of fights most of us like, for a reason, for something that happened in the game, not a staged b.s. fight.
Bickel’s zero shifts in that period suggest he’s not entirely trusted as a forward either just yet.
Leafs 4 Pit 2
Pyatt=monster in the making.
went with three lines, obviously, and Pyatt got moved up.
Can someone explain the “gate” joke?
bickel stinks. he has as much chance of scoring on offense as rupp does.
not sure why they suit up bickell normally over stralman or gilroy.
he is a pylon.
Ha! his name is Dougie. How did his parents know?
bickel =useless.
carp
shouldnt halpern get more d zone faceoffs repsonsilbility
it’s that stupid commercial for a bank, where the girl climbs a big tall rock.
did Kreider see ice time in 2nd? dont remember hearing his name.
Strahlman with strong pp shift – how is he not on the first pair pp d pairing?
Blackhawks-Wild is a rivalry?
agree Stranger.
I dont know I got more excited for the other 3 fights than I did for this one. Maybe it’s because i knew Boyle would get his butt kicked but that was not at all exciting. When the heavy weights drop them everyone gets up and waits for the bombs. Not so much there.
Oh, maybe that’s a NY regional commercial.
ha! go leafs!
is pie-hat the new borsalino?
I took a walk to the 400s where a couple of my friends are sitting. Having walked that far away from my section, I now understand the complaints about congestion. It was bad. And it’s all caused by the bathroom.
Better effort tonight. Kreider in the dog house already. Orpik put Lupul put of their game with a slash and no call.
Halpern and Rupp got a few shifts though, Carp.
Kreider got one shift in the second. Only full shift since he took the penalty.
no, Boyle’s not a fighter. The kid McQuad is.
I’m definitely muting this idiot gate mouth…..
thank god Crosby is scoring!
I’d be scared out of my mind climbing a rock that high and that tiny!
Call on Rupp was a little tough, but all I saw was a helmet laying on the ice thanks to NBC.
I thought Kreider looked ok in the first, even back checked and broke up a play due to his speed. He should have shot that puck in the first though instead of trying to force that pass.
SHOOT THE PUCK BARRY! SHOOT THE PUCK!
Is it a full bathroom or a fraction of one, Doodie?
What was I saying about Rupp before? Dude is as useless at tits on a bull. We could be going into the third up comfortably with a 2 goal lead, instead we’ll be hanging on for our lives for 20 minutes.
Grabs!!!!!
It’s half the bathroom it used to be.
was there opening night not tonight the garden is so tight around concourses better off going in your pants
Should that have been a penalty on McQuaid hitting Pyatt after the goal?
Or does it have to be a full Dale Hunter?
I’ve got a bathroom right outside of my section so I’ve never had a problem
Must-pee intermission.
Give Boyle credit for dropping them (not that he really had a choice at that point since the other guy dropped the gloves and instigated it) but there was no excitement from that fight for me.
@rangersreport
Win, lose or Bettman Bonus Point tonight, the Rangers look like they’ve gotten back to what made them successful.
and by the way, Boston is pretty damn good.
McQuaid is vehemently opposed to any unwarranted action after the whistle, so he couldn’t have been guilty.
Im just glad that Im having some difficulty determining the 3 stars of the game right now. Progress.
Richards seems to be skating better today
is it me, or is NBC’s main center-ice camera much farther away than MSG’s camera? Do they know there’s a “zoom” feature?
Does Pierre think Rick Nash is the real deal?
The later this goes, does Torts break up Nash-Richards-Gabby for a more defensive player on that line?
I forgot Eminger was playing today. Which is good..
Eric I don’t recall problems where you sit….
My bathroom is the best, if you can get past the cat hair …
Jeff, so sorry…..sometimes us locals forget this is an international/ national site :)
Whenever I hear Horton I think of bad coffee….
the rangers have zero answer for the krejci lucic horton line
I hate Lucic. ......we need someone like him on this team
Girardi still insists on taking a big enough wind up so that the defensive player can get into position to block his shot.
I think of an elephant, Mama.
Speed gets us a PP
I think you’re right about the camera, Carp. I was wondering why it’s harder to see players’ numbers.
skittered
who does?
I wish commentators could reach an agreement on how to pronounce Lucic
Could use a PPG…looks awfully similar to last year’s PP.
5 on 3
Nash time.
Crap… a 5 on 3… there goes two minutes of not scoring…
MUST SCORE 5-3 NOW OR ELSE
2 manner!!!!
scored 5 on 3 last game, Matt.
That was a soft boarding call.
3…. 2…. 1… must score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! whooooooooooooooooooo
gab-trick!!!
Mcquade is a nasty SOB. ....love to have type like himon our blue line.. Maybe McIrath????
Go time PP!
Huge 5 on 3.
be nice for Richards to win one back.
Why does every game have to be on NHL Network or NBC?
omg!!
I know Carp – trying not to be a debbie downer, but we just never seem to be aggressive on 5 on 3s…
Stepan is getting annoying
especially with five forwards on the ice.
Ha! But I like the elephant Carp and the coffee so my reference works better for me.
This is my first season with a BIG screen HD tv so I’m just happy about that…
Can Stepan skate once in a while instead of coasting all the time?
wtf r they doing?
Gaborik’s speed saved a breakaway there
UGHHH! COME ON GUYS!
Don’t need to beat two D-men alone on a 5 on 3.
Wow Richards. WOW.
Huge play by Boyle off the bench there.
wonderful pass Dzaster.
or else…
So the Rangers had 3 and the Bruins had 5 there, right?
this is pretty sad
That entire PP was brain dead
How can they not even SETUP and get quality shots on a 5 on 3?
Pret-ty Wie-nie.
Mama, I never had a problem with the bathroom cat hair. Also, hiiiii! Miss you! Muah!
ugly
anybody seen mcdonagh?
News alert…. Kreider gets a shift!
It will never cease to amaze me how there cant be a goal with a 5 on 3…though quite happy when we PK it
We easily have one of the worst PP in the league. Richards looked like he just didn’t care!
now its gonna be like a 10 minute pk until the end
never mind, there he is.
there he is
i agree micky!!
Sally !!!! ha! I know….miss you tons…. Triple muah!
wheres mcdonut?
That was a nice play by Staal
there he is
23rd in league for pp last yeat prob be 30th this year. what a disgrace of a pp
yes matt. it was
Our PP has reached a new level of horror
“News alert…. Kreider gets a shift!”
Follow-up …. It should be his last for this game.
get Richards off the point of the PP please!! this is not the 2004 Bolts
Eventually, someone has to be held accountable for the piss poor power play.
Power play is lousy but what’s their ‘grit’ ranking?
Flo is starting to look a little stopped up.
SALLY MY LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
should have traded step in nash deal and kept dubi
that PP was embarrassing. Richards lost both draws, played poorly on the point, and then ran out of gas at the end and was bailed out by Boyle’s backcheck. You can’t score on every one, but you should never have one where you don’t get a scoring chance.
No reason to put 5 forwards on the ice there on that 5-3. Girardi can score, no reason he shouldn’t be out there
LEV, I AM KIDDING BRO
Is Pyatt the Real Deal?
I jinxed their 5-on-3. Sorry everyone. :(
Trying Halpern on defensive zone faceoffs
NASH IS A BEAST!
No chance of this place ever getting lice….the nitpicking every play takes care of that :)
Grabbywaffles!!!
Eric… I think your right….. Stepan = disappointment
HANKY GLOVE SAVE!!
Stepan has definitely gotten stronger.
Oh my! Nice glove.
Yo Grabby! And Sally and Mama!
I suggest Stralman on the 5 on 3. Needs a righty up top.
That lawn guy needs to get a walk behind mower… or slow down on the cheeseburgers!
Lunqvist’s mask is the nicest mask in the NHL. It looks like royalty Ranger style!!!!!
GO RAAAAAAAAAAANGERS!!!!
gog gog gopg og gog gogogogoo!!!!
SALLY SIRLOIN!!
Carpy, can you ask that question in the postgame? “John, when does someone get held accountable for a subpar power play year after year?”
except it worked last game, Joe. If they changed it up after scoring last game, everybody’d be going, “What the eff did they change it for?”
hewy mickey!!! and mamabear!!
Hey Mickey! How’s Rochester?
I’m liking our Taylor…..
“Stepan has definitely gotten stronger.” What?????
Mickey! Greg!!!!! All!!!!
Good work on that shift.
Mama, but is he the Real Deal?
cycle-grind-jam
great shift by 3rd line
Both?
bvoneheads!!!!!!!!!!!
both????
Girardi is playing like himself again.
I actually think that was a good call.
Greg, Rusk’s mask looks like he won it at Caesar’s in Vegas…..
Hagelin looks better this game too.
these penalties are out of control even if they are a wash.
not going to win many games always playing shorthanded.
duh
Freezing Sally. I want summer back stat.
LOL @ Torts. “Wha the Byfuglien?!!?”
see….
we suck
FUDGE
well fudgenuts
cmon hank~!!!
why does girardi rip it around boards
Thirsty…
Nuttyfudge…..
Ugh, I take my Hags comment back.
henrik softquist
Errrrrrrrrr!!! I’m feeling an OT type of game. I do think Hank should have had that.
Well, that seemed inevitable.
Fish are dying C3…...
Henrik Fiveholeqvist
Does Hag Elgin get an assist????
yup, any time it’s a 5-hole goal, likely not a good one.
Byfuglien.
Tiki is upset at the goal given up by Heinie. Heinie had a clean look at it and allowed it 5 hole.
I’ve noticed no one is ever in the slot for us. WE stand right on the goal mouth and around the perimeter… WHY? Get in the slot!!!
We need a POWER PLAY GOAL.
Flower Play coming up
Hope we get the Lockout Commissioner Breakaway Contest After the Hockey Game Ends (LCBCATHGE).
Both Girardi and the player before him played the puck the wrong way. Knew that was gonna happen.
Somebody needs to tell Hank that the season has started.
DECLINE.
take hank out next few games. he needs an intervention
The King has the dreaded Vezina hangover…...
Nash will score the winner.
I’d put Stralman on the point right here.
Remember that disallowed goal in the 2nd period? Sure would be nice to have that one now
Another PP starts with a Richards faceoff loss … and right out of the zone.
I hope we get a point!
All Pierre Maguire has talked about all game is the Bruins. Everything. He hasnt uttered a Rangers player’s name all game.
I wish I could Todd Bertuzzi him.
Do we really need three guys explaining a hockey game?
Yes, Pierre, Richards plays the point on almost every PP.
DZ is shooting GOOD
we cant score again till shootout
Geezus… Nash is doing everything he can to create his own chances.
Love to see Nash driving to the net. Don’t love the other 4 players standing there and watching instead of driving to the net to create havoc. Ever heard of a rebound?
Would be nice if they could win a faceoff one in awhile.
Sad that Pierre Maguire is able to live. There are plenty of people more deserving of living than Pierre Maguire.
Rask’s been really good, too.
OH MY GOD
holy nash!!
You gotta be kidding me.
At least they’re getting shots this time.
WOW. Just WOW.
Oh hoogeley boogeley.
Wow, how does Nash not have a goal in this game?
wow! Nash has some mad skills folks…
ughhh ot
Well, at least we got one point so far.
Tukka just closed that gate! Great move by Mash, too!
A point for losing guaranteed.
Nash is the REAL DEAL.
First Point
Nash*
The goals will come for Nash. He’s unbelievably good.
Nash is the best player on the ice and it’s not even close.
oogedy boogedy boo
Haha, Toronto had their way with The Future Champions.
nash is def what this team needed
anybody want to predict the GWG?
Rangers will win in Shoot out…. NASH will get the winner… dont need to watch Artie miss the net again in a shoot out anymore!
No MSG post game show?
Imagine we had him in the playoffs?
Goes to a shoot out good night.
I’m shocked!
Nash is the REAL DEAL.
Gabby!
HAT TRICK!
Hatttiiieeeeeeee!
Gabbotrick
GABBY!!!!!!!!!!
my nigga!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Throw down the hats!
WOW! Gaborik with the Hat Trick! Ridiculous.
HATTY FOR GABBY!
And a Hattie does it! Wooohhhooo
Second Point
There we go!
Points are important. Thanks, Pierre.
So stupid. You beat a team in your conference and gain only one point.
At least we got both points. Well done, Gaborik. You shut that criminal Pierre Maguire up for a moment.
what a goal folks!!!
Just froze the screen and gave the cats a heart attack with my scream….first star…..DUH!!!!!!!!
YO GABBA HAT TRICK
Good lord, he bunted that out of mid air.
What an ending!!
Lethal first line.
GABOTRICK!!! WAY TO QUENCH MY THIRST, BABY!
GGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
gabby lets out pahetic pp off the hook. take the 2 pts and breathe a sigh of relief
WOOOOOOO!!!!!!
next time he fails to score in a game, some of you will be calling him garbage again.
HAT TRICK!!!!
1 Gabby 2 Nash 3 Pyatt
Too bad I voted for Biron before the game, there’s actually a legitimate star tonight!
Does anyone still want to suggest they buy him out after this season?
No post game anywhere? Nothing?
WOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Game over !!!
Seasons on!!!
Gabo-trick!!!!
RANGERS RANGERS RANGERS RANGERS!!!!
ive got 2 tickets for rehab, pack ya bags we’ll relapse tonight
We finally have 2 stars folks.
>>So stupid. You beat a team in your conference and gain only one point.
Tell me about it! I just can’t wrap my brain around the fact that some games are worth more points than others. The NHL could learn a thing or two from fútbol.
Gravy + Sally = Vibin’
stepan to montreal for subban
is nash on the list of the candidates for 3 star??
good gabby, nash, and mcdonagh. notice that you never notice mcdonagh because he is so damn good. good with the puck and skates like crazy.
THE HORRIBLE; faceoffs, pp,and depth.
there ineptitude on faceoffs is going to kill them
Didn’t Howard Stern drive Eddie Money back to alcoholism?
We needlessly gave a point to a contender
Vibin’
missed nash he was my 3rd star along with gabby and hagelin or mcdonagh.
The lack of postgame is making me thirsty.
When is MSG going to run postgames (and pregames for that matter) after every Rangers game?
Carp – You’re gonna have to wait an hour for the NHL show.
Kreider’s worse night is better than Boyle’s and Rupp’s best night.
We still run around like chickens with no heads in our defensive end.
Gaborik Nash Pyatt. Pyatt has been very good.
You know what really sucks? No post game after a great game like this one…stupid Bettman
JELLYSTONE PARK NEWS
Rangers steal Pic-a-nic basket back from Bruins.
Gabby, Pyatt, Nash.
The Real Deal.
And after the game on NBCSN…...a FOOTBALL show. Pathetic.
Love the voting thingy Carpy!!!!
Rangers win tonight!!!!
Carp, when I refresh, I am able to vote again (but won’t due to the stringent regulations).
I’m kind of okay with this Nash guy.
Also, Columbus is only five hours away and BJ’s games are, like, 15 smackers. So…
Love the headline Olga.
Wow that pp sucks. Wowiwowow Nash. Just wow. Great Hattie by gabs as well. Henrik is definitely not focused and fatgued as well as lacking jam.
Yes, I was really desiring football recrap immediately after game….hartnell you No Brain Carcillos!!!
Can I at least get my stick salute!!!!!!!!
rangers after taking the 2-0 lead got sloppy with the puck, partly because of the bruins skating and fore checking. Boston is very good team. I think the rangers will get better as they continue to play.
I love that Biron received two votes. Would be great if he got the number one star for sitting on the bench.
I MISS VERSUS!!
1 good period out of 9 total this season. Not too bad!
Throw your yalmulkes on the ice!
Joffrey Lupul and Scott Hartnell out indefinitely. Wow.
He marginally outplayed the king. Did henrik make a good save?
Any time you put four past the bruins it’s a good night I guess
Didn’t Dudley say that Gaborik would go off? I believe he cited his gut as the source on that one…
i guess Gabby likes playing with Nash, now we just have to find someone to center them.
I kinda like that Halpern got 1 vote :)
Can we get an update on The Dougie?
write in vote for Dudley’s gut
Pierre is currently waiting for Dougie Hamilton to show up for his scheduled interview with Dougie Hamilton so he can can ask Dougie Hamilton what his favourite thing about being Dougie Hamlton is.
Nash looks a lot like a certain guy who wore #9 for us (not the Russian one), doesn’t he?
Must say that it’s very unusual seeing Dubinsky and Anisimov killing a penalty for Columbus..
DJK, if ultimately that works out, then great….tad too early for me to compare but hey, I think he is the Real Deal
You’re right, DJK. Nash does remind me of Doug Sulliman.
Latona! I had a semi really great lunch today. I give myself 3 points.
Good to see Gabby surface. Nice knowing you Kreider. Enjoy Hartford.
And you subvert my authority all the meanwhile. Great job!
Big loss by Pitt tonight too. Big W.
Kreider is not going to HFD. He’s just gonna barely see the ice when we are playing a top team like Pitt or Boston.
Plus even if they wanted to send him down, there is no-one in HFD that is any better than him. I would like to see them call up a spare forward because Bickel is useless if he isn’t fighting. Would much rather see someone like Segal, Newbury or Kolarik who is actually capable of playing the position.
It’s ashame rangers fans were callin for torts to get fired a couple days ago. This was nyr hockey Nash is the real deal Pyatt is nice but we miss prust :( it’s all uphill from here
Prust would have changed absolutely nothing in this game.
And that talk of Torts being on the hot seat was just nonsense. He’d have to go about 3 weeks without a win to even begin having some worries.
Glad that they won this game – sorry that they gave up that tying goal, though. Would have liked a regulation win better, but I’ll take the 2 points!
Wow. Great game, just got back. This looked like the Ranger team we know.
Still very concerned with how Richards is playing. I don’t think he is worth much to the team when he plays like he has (this is how I remember him most of last season)
Gaborik and Nash were awesome tonight. Hagelin and Pyatt were very effective.
The “transformation” of my section is awful. It used to be 306, now it’s 226. The aisles are crowded because as there are more seats per row. The “amenities” are the same old crap and the seats are more expensive. I can’t wait until PSLs and more price hikes come because I’ll probably be done complaining and stop going altogether!!!
Not this game but I think our 2nd line is soft if it stays as is and our 4th line is brutal
Anybody that willingly goes by the name Dougie disgusts me. Id love to toss Pierre Maguire into the same jail cell as Sandusky
To be honest I dont even know what our 2nd line is since the lines are jumbled so frequently. All I know is that Mitchell, Prust, Dubinsky, Anisimov and Fedotenko have been replaced with Nash, Asham, Pyatt, Halpern. I really dont think we lost any physicality from the team. In fact I think we added it. Im not saying we’ve seen it at its best yet but I think we’ve improved. Talent wise there’s no question we’ve improved.

thanks, tiki.
