Let's start a new streak.

**Carl Hagelins Flow** · 10-25-2009, 09:46 PM

LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best place to get a win streak started is on our home ice, I feel it coming!

Thanks for the nice GDT LoFFen.

NYR Boyler87 · 10-25-2009, 09:47 PM

From the couple of games I have watched of the Coyotes they are a lot of fun to watch and relentless all around the ice. Maloney is doing a very good job of putting this team together. Should be a good one.

FutureGM97 · 10-25-2009, 09:55 PM

Well once again the choice is tough but I will be at MSG wearing Yotes stuff...after all it could be the last time I get to see them live. Always fun when both teams go at it.

Just where a little bit of both!

Rangers Jersey, Yotes Hat!

NYRangers88 · 10-25-2009, 10:28 PM

Lets Go RANGERS!!!

In The Flesh · 10-25-2009, 11:03 PM

I really hope Pru scores

My CI free preview is now done, total bummer, guess I'll be stickin to highlights for now

Wraparounds · 10-25-2009, 11:08 PM

Yay for Loffen doing GDTs again.

darko · 10-25-2009, 11:09 PM

This might be a low scoring game. Rangers win 2-1, Gabby and Higgins to score. Something also tells me we could see Vally in the net.

With the Giants and the Rangers funks I've forgotten what it feels like to win (not a baseball fan)

I'd like to have that feeling back

FromTheSide · 10-25-2009, 11:31 PM

LGR.Pruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

KotsyJr · 10-25-2009, 11:43 PM

I have a night class on both Monday and Wednesday.... LAME! Will only get to see the 3rd periods pretty much (unless we are in the comp lab, which equals stream time). With the Rangers losing all week, Niners losing, and AZ Cardinals winning (taking a 1 game lead with a cupcake schedule ahead)... this past week has been horrible for me. Please Rangers... WIN!

LGR!

TylerDurden · 10-25-2009, 11:49 PM

Prucha and "the korpedo" (worst nickname ever) still suck.

Jaromir Jagr · 10-25-2009, 11:56 PM

The return of Pru..

If you don't win this one Rangers, it'd be pretty upsetting..

Fitzy · 10-26-2009, 12:28 AM

Wow our 4 line rotation easily outmatches theirs. Our lineup is spread out in a way now that makes it so we can roll offensive pressure from all 4 lines.

Side note; I really wish they would try Girardi with Redden and Staal with Gilroy.

and folks we have the obligatory higgins scoring prediction...

ill settle for a higgins backcheck at this point.

i have a feeling its gonna be a long night at the garden tomorrow.
the yotes work hard, the rangers havent been lately, you do the math. 3-2 yotes and drury see's the bench.

Inferno · 10-26-2009, 01:15 AM

just get the effing win. that's all that effing matters right effing now.

Why?

Let him score a hat trick vs the Isles. We are trying to win games here.

IceBear86 · 10-26-2009, 03:29 AM

GOTTA find a way to win this one.

LGR!!

danno2530 · 10-26-2009, 03:45 AM

It'll be good to see Prucha back at the Garden. That said, I hope he's a complete non-factor.

Thankfully no Yankees games tonight so I can watch the entire game. It would be wise to start a new win streak here. Get em, boys.
