    Yeah Cage but I would rather them win all 3 or at least 2 to seal the deal. Just finished watching the Jets make fools of themselves once again getting blown out by Miami. :lol:

    Jets have multiple problems and it begins with their owner.......this team is not his priority.
    That's all you need to know!

    With the Giants, hold on to your seat...............it looks to be a bumpy ride. Hopefully, they land
    on their feet..............in the end zone!

    Giant D was very good this afternoon against the Lions. Eli did well to get the O into the end zone.
    Giants win 17- 6.

    Is it just me or does Bowles have that Deer in the Headlights look, on the sideline and even more-so during post game press conference's.... he sure could use a course in public speaking....!

    It's not just you. These Jets would leave anyone dumbfounded and speechless! Bowles will get the brunt of
    the flack about these underperformers.

    ^^^Enjoy. It's getting a little racy on the Ranger board. Best thing to do is ignore it all and
    just focus on the game.

    Don't worry Cage, I just read it and said "I'm staying away from there tonight". If they win maybe I will post something later. :lol:

    If some posters don't like the way the team is playing, they start to insult each other. There are some fans
    who feel the Rangers should never lose. It can get out of hand.
    Tonight the Rangers snatched a victory out of defeat. I'll take it.
    Team needs to rest on Monday and then go on to Pittsburgh to play the Pens
    on Tuesday night. It will be their 8th game in 13 days.

    I have watched them quite a few years, they play really well during the Season and then blow it in the Post Season. Right now they are one of the best teams in the NHL. Hank with another great win, as far as those other crazy guys on the Ranger Board I just read it and lol.

    I've got to admit, when the Kings beat the Ranger's in 2014, Ducks and Selanne beat the Devils in 2012, I kept check on the Ranger's/Devils board, little to say, not wanting to troll or piss off NY faithful....

    Like I told everyone in Braves country thru 96-97, while they cried in their beer(s), "It's never to late to become a Yankee Fan", well, it's never to late to turn to the Original Canuck boys club, les habitats de canadiens, and thank them for the game of Hockey, like they should do with MLB in Canada.

    Or- one can always look west to the wrong coast, where Roller Hockey began on Venice Beach, and many of us drove 2 hrs to spend our weekends running into Jimmy Brown, (literally and physically one time).... long prior to the Great One's arrival.

    Once Gretzky came, Robitallie brought Wayne to the Venice Parking lot, and they both began leagues in that parking lot. Both guys went into a financial collaboration to build the Open-24/7, 365 days a year Ice-oplex, with 4 rinks always open, and 4 more chilling. Leagues of all ages are able to play around the clock, from kids in the early am, to adults of any ages, and groups, throughout the nights, nothing like a 10pm game in San Fernando, and hour away, then get to work at 4-5am....

    Can't help it guys, I've been marked by the beast, when the Great One, along with his rh winger Jari Kurri, and his Defensive goon McSorley, came to town. ntm- Robitaille, Coffey, Blake, Granato. They stole our hearts out here, made us forget about the Rangers until, Wayne went to NY.

    However in all cases, when the Stanley Cup includes les canadiens de habitat in Montreal, then one must always pray to the great Hockey God, also a Canuck....! lmao...fk the maple leafs....!

    disclaimer: bored as hell; humor intended in all cases, tho' I speak with no forked tongue, at least not yet...!

    I used to go to Montreal to watch the Rangers play against those
    vaunted teams when Montreal had a monopoly on all talent in
    Eastern Canada( Quebec and Ontario ). U.S. teams would get the scraps
    or what Montreal and Toronto did not want. Their fans expected to win
    all their home games. A tie (there was no OT) to them was a loss.

    Funny. To me it was a moral victory. I witnessed more Canadien blitzes against the
    Rangers in the old Montreal Forum on Cabot Square, Montreal, Quebec.
    The sad thing is the Rangers still have no luck winning in their new building......even when
    the Rangers had good teams........but never good enough.

    Les Habitats de Canadiens, the once "Yankees of Hockey",

    probably unlike our Yanx, Hockey may never again see one or two teams with a decade or 2 long; dominate dynasties. NHL has done better than most sports too ensure and allow Parity to flourish amongst teams; unlike ever before....

    The Hockey Fans I bleed for, or did, were the Quebec Nordiques, when they landed Roy, a shitload of talent from the Lindros trade, then fkng moved to Denver. Grown men cried for a year after the Avalanche won the SC that year, first in Denver, fkng Quebec City all the way to the Cup Party, then some for the next decade...fkng Av's...
