My CI free preview is now done, total bummer, guess I'll be stickin to highlights for now
Yeah... I bit the bullet and signed up for CI through Time Warner up here in Buffalo.... But I did get the discounted rate where I saved a whole $8. Whoo-hoo
I still don't understand why some people are Ranger fans. Some of you have zero faith we will come in tonight and mop the Coyotes up Callahan will surely lay Prucha on his ass tonight Dubi will come out flying after the benching and we will take this game and the Isles on wednesday....LETS GO BLUESHIRTS.....Ps. Prucha and Korpo will both go with zero points tonight and that is the way I want it to be

Well i'm not so sure about prucha but Its a definte for korpedo.Unless they feed him the puck into the press-box
Chris Higgins, whose two gaffes in his return to Montreal led to a lengthy benching, wore a yellow jersey and skated with the fourth line. He could be there tonight because LW Donald Brashear, believed to have a sore right hand, has improved, said Tortorella, but might miss his third consecutive game. Aaron Voros, who played well against Montreal, skated on the left side of Brandon Dubinsky and Ryan Callahan.
Enver Lisin - Vinny Prospal - Marian Gaborik
Sean Avery - Chris Drury (C) - Ales Kotalik
Aaron Voros - Brandon Dubinsky - Ryan Callahan (A)
Brian Boyle - Artem Anisimov - Chris Higgins

I don't know man. I'm pretty sure I could blindfold myself and pull names out of a hat and end up with lines I like better than these.
Torts indicated this is a big game for Higgins. His spot in the lineup might be tenous. From the 2nd line to a possible healthy scratch. Gross wrote it on his Blog earlier today.
That whole third line needs to step it up a bit. Callahan and Dubinsky aren't exactly playing bad, but they're not getting their chances lately which usually indicates something is a bit off with them
Cally is leading the league in hits. I think you guys have overrated him a bit here. He's a 15 goal 3rd liner with some nice breakaway speed and moves. We cant expect a 30 goal out put from him.

Totally disagree. He had more than that last season and he has yet to enter his prime years.

Prucha had 30 before his prime years. Its a result of inflated ice time due to a team lacking quality top 6 scorers. Cally had a ton of ice time last year causing a peak in goals at 22. He wont equal that total this year or for a long time.

He did have more ice time last season than he had seen prior however I really think that he can/will continue playing those minutes. He plays in every situation. I dont know if he will ever reach 30 goals, I do think he can be a perennial 25 goal scorer for this team who brings leadership and a great work ethic.
