QUOTE(S) TO NOTE:

"Being able to reset ourselves mentally and just kind of clear your head and be ready for the next game – whoever does that best wins the Stanley Cup at the end of the day."

— Andrew Copp on the importance of the Rangers rallying, rather than dwelling on poor play

This game is exactly what this team needs right now though - a team that loses when you shoot at the goalie.

[The Dude]

Joe Cirella for trivia.

 

Sam tells a story about tag teaming under age girls with Bruce Driver and Ken Daneyko.

 

Brodzinski with a hatty and he beats the living shit out of Subban in tunnel prior to the game, then again after it. Police are called and Gauther gets arrested for yelling racial epithets at Asian children.

Trivia is Kevin Weekes.

[lefty9]

Lets go rangers 

[lefty9]

Want to see bow Lindgren defends tonight ,we need this guy to play well

[RichieNextel305]

Need Igor tonight. He needs a rebound game just as bad as the team does.

A team they lost to 7-4 2 weeks ago.

 

I expect nothing less than complete domination. The Rangers are a better team and need to play like it. Especially when they embarrassed us last time out.

[Ozzy]

Trivia is Messier...and in light of that:

 

"We win tonight..."

[jsm7302]

I want to see a shellacking reminding Jersey who they are and that last week was an anomaly.

 

 

Trivia is Patrik Elias and Jaromir Jagr.

That's not necessarily a bad thing.... for the Rangers. At least it gives me some confidence, that they'll return the favor and bitch-slap the Devils. It would be a good outcome in preparation against Pittsburgh...

[Kevin]

The Devils can definitely score some goals.  Need to see the D step up and play more solid than they have the last few games.  I'd like Lindgren to take a seat tonight and bring Schneider back in (see if Braun can play the right side).  

 

Trivia is Vic Hadfield

Strome on the ice for practice 

[Keirik]

Time to right the ship 

[RichieNextel305]

Is Georgiev confirmed? Shesterkin needs to play more often. I think that’s the only way to get him right. This whole one on, one off thing needs to stop.

No. Nothing is. We won't know until after practice, maybe.
