They are going to score 5 goals tonight as a tribute to the Captain who is unfortunately down for the evening. 5-3 Rangers, with two goals for Anisimov. Two huge obstacles to overcome, no Cally, no King in goal, it can be done.
What a great luxury it is to have the cushion that the Rangers do at this moment. If they were struggling for the last 8th spot right now, we'd probably see both Callahan and Lundqvist playing tonight. I never once thought before this season that they would be where they are, not even close to what they have achieved already this year. I want this win tonight, fuck every night, but this team has me on the edge of my seat. Let's Go Rangers!!!
Yes!!!! scary last minute and half, but Biron did very well, and notch another win. great job Rangers!!!
Tampa with that offense is never an easy win, but Henrik got some rest and will turn into his usual self, which is a wall, and keep the boys in the game and give them a chance to win. it's hard not to look ahead to the bruins on sunday, and Torts won't let them do that, man it feels good to have the "looking ahead" problem, what a season so far.
Hrmm...I just realized it's not advantageous to win the East. If we win we get to face the 8th seed.. Caps/Jets..then the winner of Penguins/Flyers. Boston gets to face the Devils then the winner of Panthers/Senators
I'm not positive he would have played even in dire straits. Daily News reported he was in a boot and on crutches yesterday. It's a good thing the Rangers have some breathing room. I wouldn't play him til he was as close to 100% as he's gonna get. Especially with the stretch they're starting. These guys won't have much down time before April.
Good win, Dubi in the doghouse....Jonny....Scott is friggin huge...best moment of the game for me was when Skinner knocked down Staal and Bickel cross checked him 3 times in the head and Rupp punched him in the head about 5 times and Skinner got the only penalty. Biron (Old 5 hole) played better but should have stopped Skinner's goal...
