QUOTE(S) TO NOTE:

“A lot of it was probably self-inflicted. Just turnovers and not enough grind or real compete. It’s what’s going to happen when you play games like that. There’s no easy games, especially a divisional game at home. There’s no reason for us to show up and play that game.”

 

— Jacob Trouba after 6-1 loss to Carolina

Othmann vs. Bedard

 

Two future legends of the game going head to head for the first time!

[Pete]

B.O. time! 

[Morphinity 2.0]

LGB! 

[Ozzy]

Good one on tap tonight!!!

Gonna be eyes all over Othmann.  I so wanna see this kid play well! 

 

Also gotta take care of business and get back to our game. 

[LindG1000]

Well, we know who's keeping the NHLPA health insurance funded here.

Joe, CONOR BEDARD, Joe!

That's going to stand for body odor if he's stuck with Bonino

I predict a big win.

Trivia is Brendan Othmann as he’s the first ever player to score 12 goals in his nhl

premier.

This one has the feels of Trouba running Bedard over......

[fletch]

After the Carolina debacle I would love to see a determined Rangers squad ahead 3-0 after the first period.  A slow start followed by a one goal win still equals 2 points in the standings, and no one gives a shit about what I'd like to see.

I don't think we can afford a 30 game suspension at this point.

[torontonyr]

If Othmann scores and Bedard doesn't, what's the over under we get a "Otthman's better" chant?

That's not true, I'd like to see 3 - 0 start of the Rangers tonight, or every night when they play, but I digress....

 

Nobody in position, who could do something about it, gives a shit what people would like to see in the forums, or for that matter in the media.

 

Let's just hope that they will show up tonight, instead of laying another stinker. LGR!!!

I just want to see a spark in the first period that involves and actual sustained forecheck.  Rangers have been great this year but I don’t want to see a mid season lull.
