Un
I just got done watching the game and…
That guy Nash sure makes a difference
I think they play so well against the lightning because they aren’t a very physical team.
DL, I hope that’s not true.
McDonagh didn’t miss a beat. A night off, a boiled potato and a six of gas aerated Guinness and he’s good to go.
As someone said last post, Why do women remember everything and we can’t remember two days ago?
New Post.
Nash Django’d the TB d all night
coos-
A seven course Irish dinner!
Did you hit your head on it C3?
Ok boys enjoy the win and a good night’s sleep…maybe??
I hope so too but im pretty sure that when i get home from work tomorrow that she wont be here
“I remember 20 years ago when you were flirting with that woman and you were wearing that stupid paisley tie.” They even remember the haberdashery and you don’t remember the party.
After what my ex said to me, I couldn’t stay in the house a minute longer.
She said “Get the hell out!”
@rangersreport Baseball players vs. hockey players:
@AP_Sports Texas Rangers’ Elvis Andrus scratched due to soreness from tattoo.
Sorry to hear that DL. :( Seriously.
Yes, Olga, and a cup of Irish coffee before snoozers.
They don’t remember everything- they only remember the things that are important to them . It just so happens they consider a lot of meaningless things important
3CP, you almost had me flabbergasted again. There are more news bulletins here than CBS newsradio.
McD another step towards the HoF
DL, a Stanley Cup will surely make up for your loss. Think about this way, you have to give up something to get something. Give up your marriage for a Stanley Cup.
Stepan, who rooms with McD on the road says they decide on a movie, Steps puts it in and within 10 minutes McD is snoring. I like my defensemen big, fast, gnarly, and boring.
My ex-wife and I parted over religious differences. She worshiped money and I started running out of it.
DL- not to make light,but you can always pack up your stuff and go with her
Tiki don’t give up your day job to become a marriage counselor… or for the Stanley Cup.
3CP, you almost had me flabbergasted
i have gas too…
We had a fiscal policy in our house. What’s mine is her’s, and what’s her’s is spent.
I don’t know why so many people are down on Sather. You never hear of the nice things he does. Hmm, wonder why you never hear of the nice things he does.
Olga, ya gotta know what’s truly important in life.
Somebody stole my wife’s credit card, but I never reported it. The guy who stole it spends less than half of what she did, so I let him keep it.
I stopped subscribing to Life.
LMGO coos!
eddie subscribes to “How to Beat Bobby Fischer in Twelve Moves or Less.”
My wife has a special credit card made out of high carbon steel. The numbers on the plastic ones were all blurry from being run so many times.
She had to put the plastic ones in the freezer overnight to cool off.
I love the look on the Bolt defenseman after Nash undressed him making that ridiculous move! The guy, seriously, kept skating backwards as if Nash was still in front him, only Nash was behind him and he was no longer wearing his knickers!
eee’s student: “Stop it, you’re sucking my brain away.”
eddie: “And I’m starving to death!”
Olga :) Hank, did you see that? It was like some kind of old movie comedy, directed and staged.
Coos, it was even better in super slo-mo! Benny Hill would have loved it!
After something like that, I would just go outside, get on the bus in full uniform and wait for the team and the driver
Too bad Nash couldn’t get himself a star from the “Press.” Maybe if he picks it up a little bit.
Hagelin’s goal was the best shot I have ever seen him take. Up until now, he usually gets these weak wristers off. That was a rocket, perfectly placed! Say what you want about Torts, but he seems to really be developing that kid!
Nash may never get a star if he didn’t get one tonight.
you guys think its racist that some adult sites have “Caucasian” as one of the categories?
Hagelin scored one of those last year from a similar spot. That was the beginning of me swooning over the kid.
Man he’s good. So good. He’s the perfect kind of fast for this system.
JT Miller too. That kid is impressive. He gets it
I am rewatching the game and Miller just made a nice move off the boards to get a shot on goal. That was in the 2nd period. Not bad for 1 19 year old!
That’s a typo CCCP. It should be “C*ck-asian”
CCCP,
get used to diversity
That should say: “Not bad for a 19 year old.” Not a 119 year old! :)
Olga! Language! You’ll be banned just like Mother is.
Iwas married three times and it got easier each time around
Mea Chalupa.
All of a sudden, I’m hungry.
Olga I love you for that streak of pedantry
3CP: You’re on the wrong site. Those are mountains.
How did the vows change newbear?
“I Do”
“I Guess So”
“Whatever”
Streak of pedantry?
I changed my shorts…
Hagelin gets it. Miller is on his way. Good things in store, it seems.
LOL, Olga – about the vows :
#1 – wow
#2 – whoa
#3 – come and see me sometime
Glad they won, but the Lightning are a pretty terrible team. They have two backup goalies that they rotate and pretend are 1A/1B and a bunch of d-men that can’t play defense.
Positive though is that the Rangers beat a team that they should beat pretty handily. Hopefully they can add some more wins.
“Lightning are a pretty terrible team”
One point behind, with one more game played. How do you rate the Rangers?
JR – “The undifference to a storied franchise exudes harmonically”
Loser guy – never give up – you arecwinner guy – say it 5 times “I am winner guy”
Just slightly terrible?
I lived with 2 girls one summer – I was exhausted
Hugo – a shade terrible
A terrible team with the most goals scored?
How bad could they really be? They are certainly in the playoff hunt.
Are the Ice Mets and Jets equally terrible? Both have beaten the Rangers recently.
Rangers are unterrible
EddieX3- thank God! You’re smart, what the hell is a streak of pedantry? I don’t know whether to hit him or hug him…
And I repeat: If you’re half scared to death twice, what’s what? Anyone? Yes, the gentleman in the back of the room who is smoking, what say you?
The Henrik finally screamed : Let me see the puck ! Henceforth the win tonight
Where is lovely Ria meter maid?
I lived one summer with two Harley Davidsons and they were exhausted by the end of each day.
Huh???
Olga – the Rangers are an average playoff team (6-8 seed).
Per – its great they score goals, they still give up a ton. Plus its a shortened season so almost every team is still in the playoff race. The Lightning won’t make the playoffs though.
Olga – 50 shades of terrible – Christian Grey Thomas as the dominating master over the trembling submissive lightning team
Every month I go to Vermont because I have relations there. My wife just got wind of it.
the Rangers are an average playoff team (6-8 seed).
It’s the Sather Way. FIRE SATHER!
On the 10 point must scoring on terrible… The rangers hit the charts – at 7.44. TB slightly less terrible – 6.86
Jonny-
I agree, Bolts wont make playoffs, but they are hardly terrible. Mediocre, perhaps, but not terrible
In the Bettman NhL, where there are no losers, its really tough to be a terrible team. Althoygh the COlumbus blue Hackets are certainly terrible!
California today raised the gasoline tax again. Boyeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Coos yo a jibberal?
Lyme disease from pedantics
Per – I guess that’s fair. I just look at their team and lack of defensive skills and to me, when they don’t score (like tonight) they have no chance.
Garon and Lindback are serviceable backups, but should not be starters in the NHL. Not to mention most of their D are offensively minded and have little defensive awareness in their own zone. Staal should’ve been planted on his backside on that PP goal, but instead they were spinning around looking for the puck Rozsival style.
Raise taxes I am a 47%er
Coming for your guns people
Black helicopters
Romney/Ryan 2012
I got lyme disease from drinking the green Kool-Aid.
Hell, I voted conservative.
I am entitled to food, housing, breathing, health care, education. And it all should be free
I’m a fiscal conservative and a social liberal, I might say.
No party. Lone wolf.
Plain and simple scurvy prevention for
mariners
Kooz – you voted mittens and boy wonder ?
It’s ok if you did … I won’t think that much less of you… Still like ya….
I think rich Democrats are embarrassed about how much they inherited and rich Republicans feel entitled to everything they’ve stolen. I have no truck with either wing. But I did shoot a daffy looking duck with my semi-aquatic.
Im republican/conservative all the way…
Jonny – the same can be said of any team, if they dont score, they usually lose. Bolts try to win using skill, which unfortuneatley, doesnt work in 2013 National Bettman League.
Fear is a rusty knife and I will not let her enter my house. :)
Mitt Romney would have made a great president if everyone was already packing 100M in soft assets
This will go to 1,000 even with everyone hastily bailing out – apathy is the new energy
No politics, no!
religion,politics,tennis, a little golf couldn’t hoit.I like the birther crowd and the tea baggers…
Kooz said enter
Ever meet a poor politician? Public “servants.”
Rich Democrats – Hollywood? Theyre not embarassed by ANYTHinG – particularly having the First Lady announce a movie award winner. I was appalled by the blatant Politics-hollywood connection.
This country is being run by the rich both left and right. Unabashedly so.
Mitt Romney would not have made a great president, nor has obama.
Bingo
Republicans seem to be ok…. Help a dog out if a trap kind of people, always praying for this and that …..
we don’t exactly live within a luxury of primes.
Rise ye the wretched of the earth…
Genuine rape is a cool concept
Lord, won’t you send me a Mercedes Banz? My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
Banz?
...and our citizens get lazier and lazier by the year…
John F Kennedy: “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.”
Thats what it should be!
you take out Kreider, Mashinter, and Gilroy for McDonagh, Nash, Del Zotto.
talk about a major upgrade.
too bad we can’t play Tampa Bay for the rest of the season
Legitimate rare, easy for the woman to shut that thing down
That one might have been their final undoing, e. But on the other side, you’ve got partial birth abortions. They’re ALL fruitcakes.
Per – you know what I mean haha. A team like the Rangers last year could get away without scoring many goals. Tampa can’t. They do have the horses to score a bunch though, but as you said it’s not a recipe for success in today’s NHL.
The Nile of complexity will bring the great speculative drought – Ezechiel 12:5
Per – ask what your country will do for us takers
ALL
Nuts!
The Republican Party has been hijacked by religious fundamentalists. It is not the party of ideals, like Lincoln or Reagan.
ALL nuts. The interesting thing about growing up is that you notice there are no more grownups anymore.
Most women I know on Tuesdays – play some tennis, hit the spa. Light shopping , then an extraneous abortion – must be a special…
no more grownups anymore? Jees, I’m losing my touch, my only marketable talent! Hockey has done this to me!
Our friends are getting lazier and lazier, figuring to rob us eventually
Say jesus with me….. Jesus. Jay zus
Eddie x 3 : ha ha! Thats what americans want today!
More free stuff, let “the rich guy” (aka someone else) pay for it!
See what you did to me? I am now awaiting moderation! I was such a happy kid.
Weimar Republic all over again, be afraid
Jesus… Jee sus… Jee Zues…. Jay-Z???
JR – ” there are no more grown ups anymore in overdamped systems”
Per – I love free stuff that I didnt build ….it’s like Christmas in july
It is the Weimar Republic – control the media, control the healthcare, control the size of soft drinks, take away the citizen’s arms… Then create a scapegoat: “the 1%”
‘Italy under the Borgias had decades of warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed.
But, they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The Cuckoo Clock.’
...whatever that means…
John Maynard Keynes – was the man
Eddie x 3—please elaborate! What are you gettin at?
C’mon boys, with the language and the politics.
Reparations caused the downfall of the German economy
Cheeses. Cheeses.
Cheeses K. Reist.
eddie is determined to take over where Tiki left off. HI, Tik, no offense.
What’s your game, Reist?!
No politics!
No Religion!
Borgias created the chaos that artists need to thrive, in time of still they write a “Portnoy’s Complaint”.
Imagine.
I can’t even have a cookout any more without two uncles almost coming to blows. :)
What in hell did Philip Roth ever have to complain about? Long lines at the teller? :)
Sorry carp, if our political discussion has mired the sanctity of this, our beloved blog!
No Art History !!!
No art history LOL
Lol cooscoos!
Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today
Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace
You, you may say
I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will be as one

A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world
You, you may say
I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will live as one
And another thing – what does “good in the locker room” really mean??
Keynes said when the economy is depressed and consumers arent spending and Corporations aren’t investing – Then the government can get the economy stimulated with fiscal spending….you dig?
Coos, uncle Phil couldn”t arouse himself, that was the subtext
Coming up….
Kumbaya.
Good in the locker room = Doesn’t step on the logo.
Hugo. I HATE that song. (Not that anyone should care)
Us takers be needing free thangs
Sorry coos, won’t happen again.
Wonder if any pranksters dropped a latenight Deuce on the logo
Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today
Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for

Take that! :)
Miami Pimp has been sighted at Pawn Stars place
I had a sociology prof in college who reminds me of eddie. We argued class after class. He invited it or I would have shut up. At the end of the term, I handed in my paper and when handing it back, he said to me, to wit: “You have no idea what you are talking about, all semester AND in this paper. But, I will say one thing, you sure can write.” So, oddly I have him to thank for that bit of confidence which launched me on a relatively shabby career.
I am entitled to food, housing, healthcare…..
It happened again! That’s why, like Reagan, I say trust, but verify.
Olga! Play nice.
(You don’t have to mean it though.)
I’m laughing a lot tonight. No idea why.
Kooz – you praising Julius or here to kill him?
I came to seize her berry, not to praise it.
Unchain me from my shackles – masters don’t own me no more
I ain’t no Senator’s Son, son.
That’s what Jack Nicklaus said.
Et tu kooze?
Carp, do all the writers get to vote for the Stars of the game, or just a few?
Do you know who decided to exclude Nash tonight?
Eddie, if you thik you are entitled then we will “mean” test you, are you sure to go ahead?
Jack nicklaus in his prime – late Sunday in a major – another golfer tied with jack for the lead – jack knew was going to win, the other guy knew jack was going to win and jack knew that the other knew jack was going to win
Love that story
Eddie, you evading my question…
I would be happy of all nice people were well taken care of and said thank you. I would kick in more. Or they could kick it back to me. And there is where the word ‘kickback’ originated.
Whose turn to buy? What’re you drinkin’?
Who excluded Nash? Stand up and take it like a man!
I want a non linear regression analysis model run
Coos, that is called a “war on poverty”, aptly described
My Tullamore’s down to dregs. Must remember, bread, lottery ticket, booze.
Newbear – I am in the 1 %, but I still want free things
Just landed. American Airlines swigs. Nice to here our boys are back in the hunt.
e would take a model, regression analysis or not.
Not in that order, I hope.
Welcome back to America, O’McBear!
Nice buttery chard with roasted chicken marinated in Italian dressing and balsamic vinegar…asparagus….and roasted peppers
Livin’ like a capitalist, eh? That sounds like George Soros’ menu. :)
Thin mint Girl Scouts cookies for dessert
I did not now any ‘profs’ since I am a militant auto-didact, Coos, but now that I am meeting them at cocktail parties, I beat them at the jocular level hands down, btw english is my second language
My daughter couldn’t stand most of the kids at Kreider’s alma mater because she said they all wore khakis and blue blazers and got rip roaring, fall-down drunk at every opportunity.
jocular level? You must be rather short.
Eddie, Rabbit Ragout tonight and 40 yrs old Dewars to top it off
Newbear said cock
Is it true that Jockeys have to put up with a lot of horsecrap?
40 yrs old Dewars? Couldn’t you find any new stuff?
don’t sound like someone eating girls scout cookies. Carp’s bedside alarm just went off.
Well, Eddie, I couldn’t say prongtail, that wouldn’t make any sense to English speakers, no ?
Kooz – comparing me to a Sociology guy hurts my feelings
I had a jockey on my lawn, but he was ridden off.
I wish they played like this on Tuesday when I was there :(( Really glad they won tonight though.
Newbear – tiger’s wood
Olga! Language alert again. Watch it.
Olga, ther is nothing like a mature Dewars girl, worth its price
Ria – baby
Mea Cupola.
I regret comparing you, e. But you got the drift. That was a true story and I pretty much remember him above all others. He allowed give and take.
You didn’t send me email, love
As do i
That’s what I mean
What a different a Nash makes .
My students adore me
We have so much fun, it’s like this place…
Ria – they looked great tonight
Ria – the writers didn’t even give him the third star – can you believe it? Now I know why Torts is smug with some of them. They have little clue.
This ranger team is a dangerous team
My detractors are trying to hate me
Teachers who can make learning fun are…well, they just are!
Ria – the Nash dipsy doodle – whoop whoop whoop
Yiz got no detractors here, bear. Disagreers maybe at times but not detractors. We’re all in the same rowboat.
They should have won it all last year, when they had the chance. The opportunity has passed. They’re mediocre again.
Newbear – what detractors? John Deere?
Deere! good one
No Olga you are wrong – Sather knows what to do and he will do it
If they can sustain this newly found energy, then the game’s on again, but we still have to beat the “good” teams hands down
Back to Sather’s Way. Just make eighth place and point to the LA Kings.
Kooz my best one tonight was “carp said sheet”
Slatsko – best in the game… Slats is like the pied piper
Coos, I did not mean detractors on this blog, just the bastards out there…
When I was a kid, my old man used to say ‘don’t make a spectacle of yourself.’
Never could figure that out. I thought he was trying to frame me.
Ria – you still here?
Newbear – the world is cold and cruel – be brave be strong – never surrender
Sather doesn’t know his way out of a lit room. And if he could have done it, it wouldn’t have taken 13 years.
Ria – please come back, I have something to tell you
Olga – relatively sort of terrible…Tampa Bay
We had an optician fall into his lens grinder. He made a spectacle of himself.
All we want is our Ria….
Bear, I used to have a blue blazer with a four inch (yes four inch) crest that said, in Latin, Illigitimi Non Carborundum, loosely translated as ‘don’t let the bastards get you down.’ Most people used to think it had something to do with my alma mater.
Olga – eye-eye-eye
Kooz just said a very bad word
We had a butcher back into into his meat grinder. Got a little behind in his orders.
Coos,
“When I was a kid, my old man used to say ‘don’t make a spectacle of yourself.’
Never could figure that out. I thought he was trying to frame me.”
We have such similar life experiences, it is otherwordly.
framed?
I cannot believe I got up after 1PM today. What a despicable bum! But I love it.
I fought the charge and won
Met some bankers at about 2 o’clock and they thought I was working since 7AM. Dumb bastards. (as it were)
Saw an airline stewardess back into a propeller.
Disaster.
When I was a kid I would say “why do I have to make my bed…. Just gonna get back in it at night”
My father would say “why eat? You are only going to Carrillo it out later”
It made sense
Olga must sleep late, too. He’s at the top of his game at 1:30 AM
Rub it in kooze – my lil angel is up at 5:45
...but I did not shoot the deputy. Is that clear?
I fought the law
e, she’s seven? I used to take advantage of my parents sleeping late by dragging a chair up to the counter and making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. My mom would put a road map into my lunch bag.
and trip eddie won
I be tired
My ex- wife used to kiss me goodbye for the day and say, “Take Chances.”
You don’t understand – she wakes up – somebody else then must also get up
Oh, I understand all right. Lived it. You’ll look back and say it was wonderful. Maybe.
Tiki. What I’d win?
Naw. I gotta work tomorrow, but occasionally I’ll stretch it til it snaps.
And it just did.
Just like Costanza. I’m going out on a high note.
Nytol.
We do what we must….
Chow olga
syonara, Olga. Good work.
Kooze -safe is death
I might get up tomorrow by 9:30! Woweee.
Olga and family are uber funny
That’s what my old man had painted on his safe.
Laughed all through even the politics. It’s all so insane. Ken Kesyish.
think i left out an e, so what?
Good humor man funny indeed
who won?
Did Gabby score? How bout Boyleeeee?
What’s their record with Nash in line-up?
I was chuckling a lot
Gabby and Boyle were non difference makers
I know. You have to. You are a mammal. Hominid. WalkOnTwoLegsThing, Brainy
I guess the Debbie downers called it a niht. Must make them angry hat they cannot be angry…
Notice Hagelin’s every-growing confidence? McD has it. Nash has it. Gabby could regain it, he’s got the hands.
Hank, I don’t vote for the stars anymore because of nights like this, and worse, games decided late. Only a handful of writers actually do vote because they pass out the ballots in the middle of the third period and collect them with about seven or eight minutes left, which is asinine.
Anyway, tonight, I’m sure a few folks voted for Nash, but I’m also sure that a bunch didn’t, and probably some of those had no clue he had 11 shots (but no goals) at that juncture; some just vote by who has the most points and or the goalie who gives up one or fewer; some aren’t even watching the game at that point because they’ve got their heads down trying to beat deadline with their stories.
In the old days they’d pick one writer and announce his or her three stars at the end of the game. Much more controversial than a vote, obviously, but usually that person would take it as a responsibility and pay attention to that aspect of the game. Now it’s an afterthought. And God knows what happens when a game is decided in the final minutes, or in OT or heaven forbid, a BCATHGE.
So I stopped voting.
A ruminant, a fake quadruped, etc
I needs to put head downnnnn. Later
Great posting today….
Cogent analysis, Carp. We’re learning. Gracias. Night E3.
shagadelic is a keeper, kid’s motor is always ON
saw King Richard get off his horse and he doth incite a collision, quite spectacular and unexpected.
Steppin out is lighting up the great white way
Carp, thanks for enlightening us this way, we have may suspected as much but there was no proof
I’m still here LMAO.
Ria, let yourself be known, I am surprised
Ria, what i wanted to tell you was that you need to be more opinionated as concernes the NYR play, and then ease off into the surrealistic stuff – everything goes and nothing is terribly personal, dig?
But of course :)
Sorry Ria! (it was great to meet you!!!!).
but new post.
That is for the next time, we would love you to have you along, hopefully after we beat Buffalo, in happier times. Nighty Night
I luv this team win or lose , just can’t bring myself to tear them apart when they don’t play. Well maybe richie rich funny I use to like that comic when I was younger.lol
what happened to “the Silent Bonehead” part of the name?
