    First time posting here in awhile. Don't feel like reading back through all the pages- so if this has been discussed I apologize.

    MSL hasn't been nearly as bad as his stats would suggest here, but I still sure as hell wish we traded Cally for young players/prospects almost ready to break out instead of a 38 year old that we needed to add possibly multiple first rounders to.

    I believe if Cally signs with Tampa, the Rangers also get a draft pick. That was a tuff loss Saturday, I was at that game and up untill Saturday, I was 4-0 at games I attended. One a side note, some women got married in a luxury box, my buddy who works at the garden said it was the 1st he's ever seen anything like that.

    this team just cannot put any consistency together. being in the east is a huge plus. rangers would get smashed in the first round out west. this is fact.

    million percent disagee - maybe if consistency means "win every single game". What I've noticed in the past month or so is that when the team doesn't play up to what they should, the coach re-adjusts, re-focuses, assigns responsibilities, and the team kills it the next game. You absolutely have that luxury in the playoffs, best-of-7. Rangers can beat any team in a best of 7, especially is we have Mac back in the lineup

    That had to be one of the worst lines I have ever seen constructed on any Rangers team.

    Whether it was a late hit or not, the scene pretty much was settling down until Zack Smith douchebagged it up with his mini spear that reignited things.

    I bet we don't see Mac untill the last game of the season or playoffs. I really don't want to end up with the last wildcard, or even the second.

    I agree with this but The Rangers have more than enough talent to beat the Hurricanes right now.

    No reason why they shouldn't beat the Canes and Sabres, Montreal is another story. Rangers can't win there.

    Agree. Those two wins should be enough though. The flyers will not win 3 out of 3

    We've been toast for a while, the back end has been miserably bad.

    I don't understand what a bit of handbags in the stands during the Habs @ Sens game on Friday has to do with the Sens @ NYR on Saturday?

    I was just being Ottawa-trolling tool JE : ) Besides, what's wrong with taking a shot at Ontario's "other team?" You're not a fan of them are you? If so, may I ask why? As for the video I thought the Ottawan senior citizen giving the Habs fan that nudge from behind was pretty funny. No shrinking violet, the old coot even followed it up by continuing to chirp at the guy, the septuagenarian badass.

    Rangers dominated yesterday, really nice to see. But they still have a major f'ing problem hitting the net and finishing scoring chances. Brassard & MSL desperately need to take target practice. One thing these guys can do right now is stop trying to be unselfish. Get greedy and try to score every single time there's a shot to be made even if you have a guy coming down on the wing, because the other guy seems to always be caught off guard and botches the shot

    Here is the thing, I've been playing hockey since I am 6, Goal scorers get all the praise and glory as do goalies. Setup guys and grinders are just as important as the goal scorers. St. Louis setups have been a thing of beauty, he had a couple of nices ones last night. If he's not scoring but setting up goals, I am fine with that. The goals will come for him. Zucc is a beast, Rangers better re-sign him in the offseason.

    Anyone know what the Rangers have to do to lock up the 2-3 seed? Or have they done so already.

    He got THREE assists for crying out loud! I swear to God, I think there are some Rangers fans who will never accept this guy simply because his name is not "Callahan".

    Or maybe its because he has 1 goal in 18 games...the same as Carcillo, Dorsett, Klein, Diaz and about 14 other guys, he's a non factor out there
