    Seems like someone from Iran? So a Muslim saved Rangers' ass? :) Can't get excited for hockey but gang green's coolest 61 year old matt robinson deserves this. Go Rangers!

    That was an odd game. The Rangers looked dead in the water mid-way through, then a switch was flipped and they dominated til the eventual OT win. Hopefully they can finish Montreal at MSG.

    Haha, I know, I was like, since when does Ahmadinejad give a shit about hockey, he's too busy building nukes. Oh, wait, my spelling is off. I think he's a Swede.

    Huge Rangers fan. And they did catch that prick who murdered poor Cecile Saidel, btw. What an asshole. I'm sure you knew that, though.

    All of this hubub about CTE in the NFL, you know NHL players are dying left and right from the effects. Jean Ratelle scored an inadvertent goal with his forehead, for fukk's sake. If anyone ever sues, my pick is Kevin Stevens.

    As if Persia still exists. I'm screwing around; but if everyone went back to Zoroastrianism, the world would be a better place.

    yeah his parents are from Iran. BTW anyone from Iran pre-revolution was basically living the same 70's hippie / disco lifestyle as in the US. Anyone that came out of there and fled the moulas are not even an iota religious / extremist

    Thanks guys. I just googled him. Like I suspected, he is Iranian descent. Gordon Gecko is on point. Right after Iranian Revolution a lot of affluent families fled Iran and they have nothing to do with Iranian religious guys. Now back to point. I just checked out prices for tomorrow's game and cheapest ticket is under $300. I would expect a higher price to be honest. Who is more popular in New York metro area? Knicks or Rangers?

    Lots of minorities fled when the Shah fell. I knew several Armenians who got out quick because the Mullahs were going to come down hard on them. Jews fled also.

    Depends where you're looking, after fees non-obstructed on Stubhub is over $350. Keep in mind this is only round 1 but the price keeps going up there's going to be nothing left to buy by 8PM tomorrow
