FOR ME GONCHAR SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING YOU CAUGHT ON A WILD WEEKEND, TUGNUTT, IS SELF EXPLANATORY. WHAT DOES EVERYONE ELSE THINK? ANOTHER ONE WHICH I FIND VERY AMUSING IS ODUYA.
(WHEN THE RANGERS PLAYED THE DEVILS I WOULD LAUGH WHEN THEY'D SAY THE NAME. THAN ME AND MY NEPHEWS CAM UP WITH ALL DIFFERENT SAYINGS LIKE ODUYA UP AGAINST THE BOARDS, ODUYA ON THE ICE, ODUYA GET'S A PENALTY FOR AN ILLEGAL CURVED STICK. JUST A FEW SAYINGS-THAT'S HOW SICK MY MIND IS :}
Finally, the new season is here! I have to say im glad to see jagr gone. Although he brought so much with him, i like that its now become a drury/gomez led team and the focus on the PP isnt him. I mean c'mon - how many times does rosival have to give up a one timer because jags had to get the puck. It seems like theres a lot more movement which is creating more open space and quicker bang bang plays.
Redden seems to be tightening up his game in time for the regular season.
Why is it that the King always seems to start slowly before turning the lights out on opponents completley? I mean if he can put together an entire season like hes done in the second half the last twp seasons, he will w/o a doubt win the vezina.
What a gloomy Christmas Eve. The weather is bad, my office didn't decorate at ALL this year. (feels like I work for Scrooge lol) We didn't get a bonus or even a card from anyone here. The office is dark and no one is here. Heck, I even asked for today and Friday off and was the ONLY person they said no too. No reason either. =( But, I am making the best out of the situation. As I sit here, with my Rangers santa hat at my desk (i'm waiting for someone to yell at me to take it off *rolls eyes*) trying to spread a litte Christmas spirit, I just wanted to wish you all a very happy holiday and a happy and healthy new year! =)
Missing my boys like crazy... Congrats Dubi on your hat trick, and rock it out Henrik!! As much as I love the beach, you guys can keep it- I WANT MY RANGERS HOCKEY!! O Godddddddd... will it ever return?! lol... xoxoxoxoxo to my fellow fans!!
The Islanders and Devils fans are the worst sport fans I have ever seen. They are arrogant, ignorant, stupid, and showoffs. They NEVER admit that another team is better than them, and they are classless. They care more about "hating the Rangers" than loving their own teams. During EVERY Devils and Islanders home game they would have the infamous "Rangers suck" chant, similar to the "Yankees suck" chant in Boston (ggrrrr). I hate the Red Sox fans for hating the Yankees, but at least I respect them for their love and passion for their beloved Sox. But Isles and Devils fans are passionless. They NEVER sellout any game when they're not playing the Rangers, and even if they do, 40-60% of the fans belong to the Rangers.
Another thing I hate about the Isles fans is that they ALWAYS make excuses about their failures and lack of fan support. Them and their stupid "the Rangers play in the biggest city in the world and half of their seats are corporate" comments makes me wanna punch them in their faces. I especially hate it when they say "Rangers have won just 1 cup in the past 67 years and never won consecutive cups" and "we've won 4 straight Cups." HELLO! At least even if they have never won a Cup they would still sellout their games and will still get the fan support that their Islosers lack. And, as I mentioned on my earlier blog, Rangers fans share a bond that makes them seem like a family, and that no other teams' fans can understand. So they should just STFU and worry about their own team.
I don't know if other Rangers know this, but in Game 3 OR 4 of last year's 1st round against the Sabres at the Coliseum, during the moment of silence for the Virginia Tech incident, 1 douchebag yelled "RANGERS SUCK COCK!" If I was there I would have killed him. And idk if it was the same game, but beer was thrown onto the ice as well. Me, as well as everyone who are apart of this website, are glad that we're not Islanders fans. I live on Long Island, but there are a lot of Rangers fans around here, so I'm safe.
I really think this year is the year (hopefully). Why you ask? The gods of hockey have been sending little messages that some people have not picked up on, but because *i'm so generous i'll share them with you *sarcasm incase you didnt pick up on it*
1. In the 93 season the pens ended our season by beating us. In 08 they beat us to end our playoff dream.
2. The Rangers began the 94 season in Europe. We started this year in Europe.
3. OJ was in the new in 94, and he's back in the news now.
Zherdev should have been on the ballot and even if he was no one voted. Now we have to watch stupid crosby in the G%# D*%# all star game this is crap boycott the allstar game
how do you lose to washington after a 4-0 lead in the second period!It still bothers me even after a week from the game. u don't turnover a puck to Alex Ovechkin and expect lundqvist to save u. He's probably the greatest player in the world right now. Please add comments if u have any
As a true fan, of course it sucks to say that our playoff run has ended but I'm happy with the efforts and contributions from all the players. I know next year will be better. Hopefully the league will look at some of the rediculous calls by the refs throughout this years playoffs and do something about it. I'm looking forward to next season!
Obviously every player played an important role in this years playoff run but the 2 guys that stood out the most (I'm sure you can agree) were Jagr and Lundqvist. So, who would you give MVP for this years NYR playoff run?
If we look at some of the most sucessful franchises in sports: New York Yankees, Green Bay Packers, Boston Celtics, Montreal Canadiens, etc., there is none more unique than the New York Rangers. They may not be the most successful team ever, but they sure are the "classiest team in hockey." They've got the most passionate fans in the world. If you look at the Rangers' attendance records, they have sold out EVERY GAME, whether it was during a winning season or a disappointing season. They draw 18,200 fans to ALL games at Madison Square Garden. Why is that? Rangers fans are the most loyal and the most faithful fans ever. They don't care if the Rangers win or lose, they just want to see the team they love. The Rangers have had they bad moments. From not winning the cup in a 54 year drought to not making the playoffs from 1998-2004, their fans continued to support their beloved Blueshirts. I DON'T want to hear the ignorant Islanders and Devils fans say "you guys play at the Garden, in the biggest city in the world, and half of your seats are owned by businesses." Because if you look at the Knicks, they play in the same arena/city, and has half of their seats owned by businesses. But when they stink, they don't draw sell out crowds, whereas for the Rangers, they sellout whether they win OR lose.
In Game 6 of the 2007 Eastern Conference Quarter Finals, after the Rangers lost to Buffalo 5-4 in New York, the Garden faithful remained in the arena, and still gave the Rangers a standing ovation for their efforts. For the Rangers fans, there is no shame in defeat. Just pride in how far they came. That's why the Rangers, even though they lost, still gave their fans a final salute by raising their sticks. In contrast, Islanders and Devils fans would be complaining and cry like babies when they lose. They are the biggest sore losers in the world.
I don't know if any other fan notices, but I think Rangers fans share a bond together. There is always this feeling of love between Rangers fans. Whenever I see someone, a stranger, a classmate, people from facebook, etc., I would go up to them and say "Lets go Rangers," and would have a good conversation with them. That's why most of my friends who like hockey are Rangers fans. Rangers fans has this bond that I don't think any fan of other team would have.
I believe this question may not be proven until a few more games have been played but I DO feel initially, by the look of the team, that they have seen the light. Maybe Renney posted the standings in the locker room from this morning's paper or maybe the team has finally collaborated and rallied behind Lundqvist to start the mid-season comeback. Whatever the case, feels good to see Henrik get the big 0.00 under his GAA for the first time this season.
Not only have we lost three games in a row now, we have also lost to one of our top rivals, the Debbies, 2x. This is just sad. I love my Rangers and they played a good game. I am just sick of seeing Renney sit there, unnerved, chomping away on his stupid gum. I'm sure he knows this is mostly his fault, which is why he turns a sickly white when we lose. I also did not wanna lose this game, but I had a feeling that deep down, it would all boil down to this. Unfortunately, I was right. Sorry, just needed to vent after losing. But as always:
I hate to sound like a bitch but has anyone else noticed that the refs have been totally one sided all throughout the playoffs? I mean, they miss calls constantly and similiar calls are always called on the rangers. Lets call a penalty with 3 mins left in the game!!
I honestly hope they do something about this because its been going on all playoff.
SATHER IS A JERK! SATHER IS A JERK! SATHER IS A JERK,SATHER IS A JERK!!!!ANYONE REMEMBER THAT HE DID THE SAME THING TO LEETCH--ON HIS BIRTHDAY AFTER HE ALSO SAID HE DOESN'T WANT TO LEAVE?? I MET SHANNY (AND LUNDQVIST) OUTSIDE THE GARDEN, AND THEY ARE GREAT GUY. THEY STAYED AROUND FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE GOT AN AUTOGRAPH/PICS. I KNOW THIS IS IN CAPS BUT IT SHOWS HOW ANGRY I AM. ONLY REASON HE WENT TO DEVILS-IN MY OPINION HE EXPRESSED THE FACT OVER AND OVER THAT HE WANTED 2 STAY IN NY BECAUSE HIS KIDS ARE FINALLY COMFORTABLE AND DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE TO MOVE THEM AROUND AGAIN. I WILL ATTEND DEVS GAME CHANTING HIS NAME... GOOD LUCK TO SHANNY, I HOPE YOU SHOW YOUR CONTRACT UP SATHERS A''. IF ANY DISAGREES WITH ME, GO TO IAMARANGER.COM AND LOOK AT ALL THE FANS THAT SUPPORT, THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT HE IS ON AN OPPOSING. YOU WILL BE MISSED SHANNY, YOU HAVE BEEN MISSED.

POT-VIN SUCKS !!!!
potvin really did suck! i just found out at last nights game about the ankle beaking thing! Gives soooooo much more meaning to the chant.
Oh and the Devils really need to make up some of their own chants instead of biting ours!
Sweet Caroline!

"C" for Shanahan
With Jagr gone, Brendan Shanahan would be a great Captain!! He's the BEST on and off the ice!!
i'm pretty sure heartbroken is
dear nhl
i hope you are pleased your pathetic (ugly) golden child has advanced in the playooffs.
i hope that ranger fans cheer on our rivals, philly, simply to spite your terrible choice in officials.
thanks for nothing
a broken heart

Fluke Win or New Start for Ran

The Playoff Refs..
I hate to sound like a bitch but has anyone else noticed that the refs have been totally one sided all throughout the playoffs? I mean, they miss calls constantly and similiar calls are always called on the rangers. Lets call a penalty with 3 mins left in the game!!
I honestly hope they do something about this because its been going on all playoff.
anyone agree with me?
