GDT: #5 - 10/12/13 | New York Rangers @ St. Louis Blues | 8:00 PM - MSG

[Crazed Beaver]

We are not winning this game.

I agree, but im waiting for more advice from the soft euro before I formulate a more detailed opinion.

 

[eco's bones]

Alex Steen loves to play against the Rangers. He seems to almost always manage to score. Blues have a really good blueline and they're a grittier team as well. We got our work cut out for us. Marty Biron is going to have to come up big.

I was supposed to watch the first one (episode four) with a couple of friends of mine who are fans. Halfway through the movie I was laughing so hard they got angry and turned it off. I'd almost rather start watching that again than tonight's game vs the Sharks.

Since I'm too dumb to expect anything else than a good game, I'll be watching anyway.

OMG The first 3 Star Wats were epic. The next 3 not so much. I did not know there were people above 10 years f age in this country that had not seen them.

I dislike the genre. That type of sci/fi never did anything for me, so I guess that's why.

But this is getting way off topic. My hopes for the games are simple: Play better d, don't get blown out, don't get shut out, look like a team that wants to win. They do that and I won't be pissed if they lose to a very good team.

 

[Whoot Whoot]

I hope Biron gets a shut out - put that anger in Henrik's heart - he will snap back

 

[JohnC]

With Falk replacing Asham I don't see how the cup ISN'T ours

 

[bubba5]

What's the over under for goals against tonight 6 or 7?

 

[Raymones]

Folks.... Prepare for the worst - hope for the best.... And again.... ALCOHOL

In my books, this is the sanest approach. I'm in with some Guinness and Laproaigh. Cheers everybody!

 

[Machinehead]

I cancelled the Star Wars plans. You're all stuck with me.

 

[Hire Sather]

Don't understand the rolling of 7 D, but ok.

 

[PMantis24]

Just put up a good effort. Where's the team that beat LA? yea, I know we don't have Nash but doesn't mean we should see what we've seen the last 2 games.

A goal tonight would be nice...

LGR!

Not sure if that's good for your sanity.

I often tell me goalie to open his eyes and stop trying to use the force to stop the pucks.

We will win (Nicky Fotiu Jedi mind trick)

Not sure if that's good for your sanity.

I've been a Rangers fan over 20 years, my sanity is long dead and buried.

 

[Machinehead]

I usually wait til later in the season when we're FUBAR in the standings, but if we get down early again it might already be time for an HFNYR singalong.

[Punxrocknyc19*]

i wish Rangers had a player like David Backes... he is the type of forward Rangers should look for...

 

[Kakko]

Apparently Backes and Callahan are bros

don't really like to do this but...

USA! USA! USA!

 

[CDiablo]

Is anyone other than myself pissed that the only players that showed up for the optional skate were Asham, Falk and Biron. I know they play the game at the highest level and they dont want to sap their energy but given how they have played some would show up just to "learn the system" (which many fans I know say is the problem). Kind of pissed AV didnt make it mandatory. It makes me feel both the players and coach dont care much about being the laughing stock of the league.

 

[ManyIdeas]

Here's to an injury free game, Rangers fans. Hopefully the team can get it going soon.

 

[gary laser eyes]

Another tough road game. Let's see if the guys came to play. I'm expecting another loss but I just wanna see the team show some ****ing balls.

Wasn't it a "very optional skate"? Meaning they didn't really expect anyone to show up but it was there if you wanted to stretch your legs kind of way

 

[ajdj10]

It's all good guys.
AV just said we're working hard in practice.
