    He looked like "pizza face" Bill Murray on the old SNL giving Gilda Radner 'noogies' (vs. 'bombs'). Kreid's strong as an ox but not exactly Joey Kocur in the haymaker dept. : )

    Nothing wrong with nice looking girls on skates Joe. Actually a good win for the Isles the Preds are good...thanks to Cam-butt we lost a point in the standings, but at least we gained a point on the Guins

    I know they've been winning but they also blow a lot of leads lately too. Talbot's been giving up a lot of goals, luckily the rangers have been scoring in droves.
    hate losing a game when up with two minutes left.

    Great game, was on the phone talking to my son up in Cuse the exact moment the Rangers scored a goal and he was like "what is all that noise?!?" Lol.

    I gotta say, the Rangers are pretty good and this makes me sad. I loved that they had been down for so long. Met the team dentist (who knew?) between periods and he said while he's not involved with the King's medical treatment, he thinks he'll be fine and ready long before the playoffs.

    Got a decent pic of the Kreider fight. Also met Mario Batali, took a pic with him. Told him I loved his recipe "Weeds With Sausage" and that I make it all the time and he was actually pretty cool, trying to explain to me how to say it in Italian. Nice dude, not all pretentious like some celebs.

    Sure. I haven't loaded any of my picks to photobucket yet, I'll see if I can get to it today. It's not a closeup by any means. I just snapped a bunch when they were in their scrum.

    OK thanks...You missed my earlier post where I said I would have had my son escort you out of the building, for not being a Ranger fan (my son works for the Rangers) :)

    Please understand, while I sometimes play a dick here on TGG, at sporting events I am incredibly respectful and never EVER make a spectacle of my distaste for the home team no matter how much I hate them. I don't wear any jerseys or even clothes the same color of the team I am rooting for-ever- for any sporting event other than up at the Dome. even Jet games at the Meadowlands. Never have in all my years and games.

    No one would have never known the fire burning beneath last night :D

    Hell, after the shootout, I bowed my head and smiled inwardly. ;)

    The Canucks deserved to win that game. It was absolutely ridiculous how they dominated puck control when they scored that tying goal.

    Classy move my Nash, posing for the selfie. Being a dad has softened him up:

    Rick Nash is definitely a different player from last year...Something was just off last year.

    Good job by Skapper to keep his composure after the first goal. Wasn't tested much until the third, but came up when it mattered.

    Nash and Brassard had completely dominant performances.

    Don't look now, but Nash is only one goal and 5 points behind the league lead (with two games in hand).

    Skap-per came up big In the 3rd, more defensive lapses are disturbing, but we keep winning. McD and Girardi have been struggling and Steps hit the post on an open net so Hack wants him gone...

    The way he missed that net was pathetic. Bigger franchise blunder than the ButtFumble.

    Unbelievable how he missed an open net in a regular season game.

    Trade him for a real #1 center, like Paul Stastny.

    Entering today's action, Derek Stepan is T-1st in the NHL (min. 10 GP) in A/20 (0.77) and ranks 6th among NHL centers in P/20 (1.05).

    Stepan sucks. Get rid of him. :rolleyes:

    JT "manos de piedra" Miller in the shootout… picked up by Nash and (hey!) Cam "post/crossbar" Talbot.

    Hayes with an Espo blur of a wrister. But what's with these 3rd period folds? One shot on goal, Rangers looking vulnerable to the forecheck, struggling to get out of their zone…

    Brandon Dubinsky's lucky Marty St. Louis didn't drop his gloves and go full Probert on him. :D What the hell was Dube's problem?

    Vi saknar dig Hank!
