Bask in my genius

wd40

Ta-daa!


wd40

That was a brutal call on Pahlsson.


wd40

Girardi takes a terrible angle, and completely fucks up there. Inexcusable.


wd40

The Rangers have nothing to complain about re: the refs tonight so far.


wd40

That is a great shot by Freddie Shoes


wd40

Another too many men penalty


wd40

honestly, can anyone who likes Renney justify Voros being rewarded with PP time??


wd40

Ugly start, countless turnovers in the defensive end all period long, a terrible penalty in the offensive zone by a player who ought to be in the ECHL. That’s Renney hockey.


wd40

cakewalk, my father (who saw his first Ranger game in 1932!) was at that game when Hadfield went over the glass, and the next morning he couldn’t stop talking about it while I was eating my cornflakes. But I didn’t know that Emile and Vic were not on speaking terms, is that really true? Very sad if so, life is too short.


wd40

kaspar, wasn’t nick beverley the chump the NYR got for Hadfield? I remember that Sunday aft in ‘74 too well. The Rangers scored the first goal but were chasing it from that moment on. seeing Hadfield laugh in the box was killing; as I recall he was chatting up the sin bin attendant.


wd40

jjp, you wrote “No one on the roster who is sitting or in Hartford is as good a player or a substitute for Gomez or Naslund (or even Drury, Redden, Rozsival).”

Over a full season, no doubt you are right. For a night? To send a message that lazy, unstructured, unproductive play will not be tolerated by team leaders? Dead wrong.


wd40

Trues fans, I am mostly with you. but I agree with Ford that Renney isn’t dumb (as you say) but instead very very fearful.


wd40

LI Joe, you are kidding yourself if you think Avery won’t get another chance in the league. Who knows where, but one of those 29 guys you cite will pull the trigger.


wd40

McGuire praising the Rangers and Renney for going out with a whimper. Tremendous. Thank you sir, may I have another!


wd40

Dawes and Callahan have been switched from their regular lines.


wd40

Too much resting on the laurels from Chicago—the sign of a complacent team. Not good.


wd40

This is a pitiful effort to put forth on national TV, even if only about 10,000 people are watching.


wd40

Redden teeing it up for … Redden.


wd40

Pierre Larouche in Mario’s box


wd40

Has Prucha had any PP time in this period?


wd40

How can the slash on Betts be missed?? It was right in front of the ref.


wd40

Somebody needs to target Malkin and drill him.


wd40

Horrible pass by Zherdev on the PP


wd40

That was a great play.


wd40

Someone let me know when Naslund STOPS putting the puck on his backhand when he doesn’t have to on a scoring chance. That is twice today.


wd40

Come on, the game isn’t over yet.


wd40

Not a good goal by HL—- and Dawes effed up badly by not hustling on the backcheck.


wd40

Edzo is right—- the way you slow Pitt down is being physical.


wd40

Wasn’t Dubi just hooked down to the ice?? Right in front of a zebra??


wd40

That’s what happens when you get outworked so badly.


wd40

Amazing game/win. Hank was unreal, good to see Drury live up to his role. I just hope Renny makes his point in the postgame. Refs who respect and fear coaches would never call a game like the one they just called on our coach. And he has to change that perception NOW, before the playoffs.


wd40

Pathetic Renny, not blowing his cool until the FIFTH 5-on-3. And look what happens, Campbell gets a horrible call against him. Maybe because the ref finally got shown up by Casper Milktoast?


wd40

Th ref says, Renny! You’re down a man again!

Renny says, Thank you sir, may I have another!


wd40

Too much stick checking in front of Hank—- forget the puck and take the man!


wd40

OK, now let’s see if they keep forechecking or try to run out the clock.


wd40

Korpedo! Dubi!


wd40

Zherdev should be double-shifted a lot this period. But the coach doesn’t believe in scary things like playing for the win, so….


wd40

Renney’s response to this third call is so pathetic that it makes me want to puke. What a pussy milktoast


wd40

Horrible penalty for Betts to take in that area of the ice.


wd40

Man, Naslund has had some opportunities tonight in front of the net.


wd40

Not a good start to the 2nd so far…


wd40

jjp, you play hockey, don’t you? Then you should know from pee wees that you don’t play the puck carrier, you play the other guy, leaving the goalie to take one guy, the shooter. Doesn’t matter if it’s Kane or Gordie Howe, you can’t make the goalie have to sweep across the crease to deal with a pass getting rhough to the second guy. Hockey 101.


wd40

Girardi makes plays like that every single game, and now isn’t scoring any points to offset the shitty defensive work.


wd40

The Rangers D still doesn’t apparently know how to play a 2-on-1 against. Unreal.


wd40

Nice set-up by Prucha for Dawes from the off wing.


wd40

CCCP, that is a fantastic story, what a hoot. Even the man on the street, er, woman, knows what’s what.

jjp, I agree with you on the talent level. Look at MSG’s vault for Rangers games in the 70s. Half the guys can’t skate as well as Colton Orr. At least 70% of the problem with lower goal scoring is due to outsized goalie equipment.


wd40

Beer Me, to be lectured by you about the “mature” way to deal with other posters on a day where youve told CCCP to blow you and to “F himself doosh” is great comedy, even for you. you were completely wrong in your post about Brooks, so grow up and own it.


wd40

Beer me, as usual you’re wrong. Two examples just off the top of my head: Brooks wrote for weeks that Prucha should be in the lineup before he was put there; Brooks wrote that the power play needed to be practiced before it finally was again.


wd40

CCCP and kaspar, i totally agree on Washington and how they play at a pace and with a hunger that the Rangers under Renny can’t even imagine. It is not just their talent but the mindset——a coach that plays to crush and not to “feel out” the opponent. What a concept.


wd40

Ovechkin does not like Malkin. (join the club)

wd40

kaspar, very funny. you ought to be heading political campaigns (if you aren’t already)


wd40

wd40sucks, here I is! Not a hater, but a definite disliker.
