The Rangers are super physical, I think they out hit the devils 2:1 (21-41). They are going to be a handful for any team in the playoffs if they can keep it up. The Rangers have an even 4 lines that can all score and/or take the body and hit. Not many teams have that.
The Rangers have 4 lines that can score??????????????????????? What in Gods name are you talkin bout braaaaa? oops, I missed the and/or
Laugh at idiots on HF boards should we rest our star players now that we clinched the playoffs, no morons not till we clinch the 1st seed!
Worried about that. Hopefully he isn't rushing himself back. But a healthy Artie gives us some legit scoring on three lines so long as Dubi finds his form (bar Boyle, that offensively inept oaf). Hags -- Richie -- Gabby Dubi -- Steps -- Cally Artie -- Boyle -- Zuke Rupp -- Mitchell -- Prust
Really rough night on draws. The Rangers don't usually look that bad on faceoffs. I'm pretty sure Datsyuk didn't lose a single one. Callahan played unbelievable, probably saved the game on the breakaway break-up in the third before winning it in OT. It's gotta feel great when the captain of your team busts ass non stop game in, game out
Callahan was absolutely tremendous last night. That 2-1 in the 2nd made me crack up. Stepan pretty much let teh Wings catch up because hes about as slow as Scott is, then he drops it back to Dubi who can barely get a shot off. Ugly. Big win...not a physical game which I hitnk we needed for a break
Hank is already, clearly the best goalie we've ever had. Cally is on his way but its still a little early I think no?
Hank is not as good as Richter yet. He could have easily won the Conn Smyth in 94. Hank needs to take the team deep in the playoffs to grab the top spot. Cally's leadership and work ethic is what does it for me. Efforts like last night are the norm for him, and he leads by example. It is early but I don't see this a flash in the pan. He is a true captain, and we haven't had one since #11. He may never have the gaudy stats, but play like his is held in high regard @ MSG.
Brad Richards quote on Cally " We all see the desperation he plays with every shift, his effort, his leadership, he inspires us all to play harder." Very high praise...
