Call-Up Parenteau Shoots Rangers A Win
Call-Up Parenteau Shoots Rangers A Win
bluelinestation.com — Every win is a good win. And this was no exception. Lots of good to take away... from the game. It was a road win. Lundqvist was solid. Great penalty kills (including a short-handed goal to tie the game and 1:23 to close OT). Higgins looked respectable in the middle. The team was better on [...] (more) Call-Up Parenteau Shoots Rangers A Win
Lundqvist and the Puck (and some Atlanta game thoughts)
Lundqvist and the Puck (and some Atlanta game thoughts)
bluelinestation.com — First an issue that needs to be brought into the light and then some thoughts on last... night’s game against Atlanta. Stop me if this scenario seems familiar: Opposing team dumps the puck into the Rangers zone. Lundqvist drifts behind his net. Gathers the puck. Fires it medium-strength ...

Suspensions — Proposed Rule Change
Suspensions — Proposed Rule Change
bluelinestation.com — I have never understood why a player who gets suspended for something he does in a game... against Team X sits out the next set of games in date order and not the next set of games against Team X. The aggrieved party is Team X — they lost their player due to injury from [...] (more) Suspensions — Proposed Rule Change
What Now?
What Now?
bluelinestation.com — Now that Dubinsky is out up to 6 weeks and Drury may miss some time (he does... have a history of head injuries/concussions), we need some new line combinations. And as Larry Brooks detailed in his article today, while we have some cap room, there isn’t much. So how about these proposed ... (more) What Now?
Does Anyone Know What Interference Is?  The Refs Don’t.
Does Anyone Know What Interference Is? The Refs Don’t.
bluelinestation.com — I don’t want to talk about the game much. It was a valiant effort by the Rangers,... who lost Drury and Dubinsky to injuries. Can’t fault em for the loss when they were without their top two pivots and Lundqvist. They even handled Calgary’s relentless pressure and forecheck ... (more) Does Anyone Know What Interference Is? The Refs Don’t.
Lundqvist To Miss Second Straight Game
Lundqvist To Miss Second Straight Game
bluelinestation.com — The day of “rest” for Lundqvist has turned out to be something more serious. The King will... sit tonight against Calgary due to what is believed (or at least reported) to be a sore groin. Lundqvistdenies it has anything to do with the number of times he has been hit/run over this ... (more) Lundqvist To Miss Second Straight Game
Drilling The Oilers
Drilling The Oilers
bluelinestation.com — Solid win. Always nice to have the team play well with your backup goalie in net. Some... key players made strides in this 4-2 victory. Most notably Higgins (scoring for the second straight night and playing an excellent two-way game), Callahan (playing with the energy/forecheck we’re ... (more) Drilling The Oilers
Rangers Lose To Themselves (And The Canucks)
Rangers Lose To Themselves (And The Canucks)
bluelinestation.com — At least the effort was there… And Higgins finally netted his first goal of the season. But... that was about it in terms of positives. The Rangers continue to suffer from the same downfalls. This game it was bad line changes (on the first two goals) and letting in late period goals (the ...

They’re (and He’s) Baaaack
They’re (and He’s) Baaaack
bluelinestation.com — Finally, a full team, three-period spirited effort by the Rangers. They played hard, not missing any chance... to hit; backchecked consistently, especially in the key spots; cleared pucks very well from around their net; and saw Lundqvist play one of his best games of the season. And of course ... (more) They’re (and He’s) Baaaack
Hopefully It’s Darkest Before The Dawn
Hopefully It’s Darkest Before The Dawn
bluelinestation.com — There’s not much new to say. The Rangers, again, were out-hustled, out-worked, and out-played in a game... that they should have won. Even without the injured Gaborik, Avery, and Higgins in the lineup. The Rangers were dominated in both ends of the ice, and seemed to lose the will to fight ...

Kicked Off The Island
Kicked Off The Island
bluelinestation.com — If Tortorella wasn’t irate about the Rangers play before last night’s game on the island, then he... certainly became so after it. I’ve seen more coordinated play — offensively and defensively — in pick-up street hockey games. We lost faceoffs 36-19. We lost ... (more) Kicked Off The Island
Orr fights Parros…AND the linesman
Orr fights Parros…AND the linesman
bluelinestation.com — Looks like former Ranger Colton Orr didn’t want to stop fighting George Parros last night. So much... so that he actually pushed the linesman away. Take a look… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7FC6DXW_JI&feature=player_embedded (more) Orr fights Parros…AND the linesman
Win the Battle, Lose the War?
Win the Battle, Lose the War?
bluelinestation.com — The real story of the game, and perhaps the season, was Gaborik. He was dominant through two... and a half periods, scoring twice and adding an assist. The line of Gaborik-Prospal-Lisin was firing on all cylinders, creating scoring chances and goals (including a rocket by Lisin and a multi-pass ... (more) Win the Battle, Lose the War?
Rangers Lose Third Straight In Gomez Reunion
Rangers Lose Third Straight In Gomez Reunion
bluelinestation.com — The Rangers dropped their third straight in another wild trip to Montreal. (They did get a point... since the loss was in overtime.) They jumped ahead 3-1 after a solid first period, but had yet another dreadful second, after which the game was tied at 4 apiece. Neither team scored in a mostly ...

Rangers Lose to Devils in Lackluster Performance
Rangers Lose to Devils in Lackluster Performance
bluelinestation.com — The Rangers fell to New Jersey 4-2. (With the last goal an empty netter.) The Devils controlled... the first period, scoring two goals. The first off of great passing, and a misplaced Girardi. The second a beautiful deflection after Staal was caught out of position. Not a good period for the ...
