The 100 Man March
March 7th, the day had been circled on my calendar for weeks. The disenchanted masses were gathering for a showdown. Time to let the fat cats at MSG/Cablevision know us Blueshirt faithful weren’t going to take it anymore… that Glen Sather was no longer welcome in our town…
We *Will* Get Fooled Again
We’re looking forward here to the last game before the Olympics because it’s the last game before the Olympics, and I need some Ranger-free time. Also Nashville doesn’t come around that often, so it’s a novel match-up. We’ve had a roller-coaster first two-thirds of a season. The Rangers find themselves fighting for a playoff spot, [...]
Rumor: Vinny To Reunite With Torts In A New York Minute
The Ottawa Sun reported Sunday, of course citing an unnamed league source, that the New York Rangers GM Glen Sather spoke with Tampa Bay GM Brian Lawton about a trade involving Vincent Lecavalier. Lawton said the story is, “completely false.” Remember fans…the Ottawa Sun is code for the National Hockey Enquirer. It would be difficult [...]
SIBLING RIVALRY: Holiday Edition
Sibling Rivalry: Holiday Edition It was a hoot to see last week the hapless Rangers tied with the Isles who were exceeding expectations by not being dead last. Though for Isles fans, there is likely only one thing they want this holiday season…the Lighthouse Project come to some accord with Nassau, Suffolk, Brooklyn, Queens or [...]
NY RANGERS: Time Keeps On Tick…Tick…Ticking
Will Mark Messier take over for Glen Sather? Does anyone else think this is an ass-headed idea? How about Jay Feaster, a proven GM who’s worked with Torts instead? No, that would actually make sense.
John Tortorella = Johnny Hotcakes
If you haven’t figured out John Tortorella is an angry dude, clearly you aren’t a Tampa Bay fan. When he was a free agent, it was clear he was going to go to a top contender to be the difference. Lo and behold, he’s stuck with Glen Sather’s hapless Rangers, and those who are making [...]
The Rangers are a Confused Franchise
What many of us thought would be a promising season has turned into a nightmare for the Blueshirts of New York. Despite being just two points out of eighth place in the Eastern Conference, the past month — and the whole situation on Broadway — has looked more like an episode of MTV’s “The Jersey [...]
Game 13 review – Thank God for Penner and Hemsky
“A fire hydrant could score 40 goals playing with Wayne.” – Glen Sather
Right now it seems like a fire hydrant would score a lot of points playing between Penner and Hemsky. That hydrant wouldn’t win many faceoffs but neither do the Oilers so I guess there wouldn’t be a big difference there.
SIBLING RIVALRY DEBUTS! NY Rangers At The NY Islanders 10/28/09
The Rangers face the NY Islanders over at the Coliseum. Sure, the Islanders aren’t exactly scaring anyone at dead last in the conference. But, hell, at least they aren’t Toronto. Meanwhile the Rangers have been on quite a run. But when they play one another, it doesn’t matter who is first nor last. That’s what [...]
Analyzing the 2009-2010 New York Rangers
On the eve of the unrestricted free agency period, Glen Sather began the annual remaking of the New York Rangers by shipping Scott Gomez and his bloated contract to the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for Chris Higgins and A-List defensive prospect, Ryan McDonagh. By shedding Gomez’s contract, Sather cleared the way to sign the uber [...]
