    I think the Rangers will play well and win tonight, they are due. We'll see.

    That was a comical penalty. And boom just like that 1-0 Flames.

    What a joke penalty call.

    So much for that call. My lord we are a joke right now. We may be the worst team in the NHL at the moment.

    NJ, Wash, Nash, CBJ, and now Cal all beating us in our building. Who saw that coming. Just wow.

    It is amazing, but since that Janssen goal we have been dominated.

    With the way we have been playing, it is a very longshot we can come back to win tonight, but we'll see.

    My question becomes, how long do we put up with this before Glen does something? We aren't struggling, we are awful right now. Getting dominated game after game.

    Good bounce back goal. Let's show some life now. Come on already. Whether we can go far or not, let's show some pride at least.

    I love having McIlrath on the team. It keeps teams honest. He'll lose vs. the NHL heavyweights for a couple of years. He's pretty thin. In 3-4 years he'll be 230 and then he'll really start hammering people.

    Finally refs let big mac go. He loses a decision to mcgratton who got in 1 good shot that cut mac but rest of shots were noogies. Butterflies gone for mac now and hope they go again later on. Mcgratton 32 and experienced to dylan 21 and first career fight. Mcgratton one of the tougher guys but even he has to know won't be long before dylan wipes the floor with him.

    McGrattan just interviewed by Sportsnet said McIlrath did well, that says a lot

    Our kid landed some too, McGrattan got a swelling above the left eye.

    I guess they have to wait for Ken Dryden or Terry Sawchuk to be in net before they can figure out how to score more than 2 again.

    Lundqvist giving up too many backbreaking goals lately.

    A 9 game homestand is a negative for a team like this. They play better and looser on the road.

    Amazing how nobody's taught them how to back a team down on a 5/3.

    Hank also made 2 great saves on breakaways early to keep the game from getting out of hand but I agree the third one he was caught diving forward instead of standing tall. All 3 Flames goal the Rangers dmen were nowhere to be found. There is no need to chase the puck to the corner unless you can get it, let the puck come to you. The penalty on Kreider was embarrassing to the integrity of the game, amazing how that is seen as a penalty but 2 high sticks on D. Moore are missed. Good for Dominic and Pouliot for their shootout contributions.

    Most people wouldn't even have the balls to fight McGrattan. The fact he did in his second pro game tells me a lot about what he will bring to this team as he gets better and better.

    McGratten respected the kid. I think even gave him a good job after they were done.
