News Article: Broadway blueprint has Rangers riding high

[bobbop]

These are not the New York Rangers you used to know.

Gone are the abysmal free-agent signings. Gone, too, are the years with sky-high payrolls, low effort levels and playoff misses – of which there were an alarming seven in a row prior to the 2004-05 lockout.

And in their place just might be the hardest-working team in hockey.

“Sometimes our fourth line has a good fore-checking shift, and they’ve just got people hemmed in [their zone]. We’re not scoring three goals on that shift; we’re just working hard."

I hope the "sometimes" turns to "consistently." They are the hardest working team in hockey, IMO.

I like Girardi getting the attention he deserves, he's really been stepping up when needed and proved everybody wrong who said that he needed Staal to look good.

I had a dream there was a pic of Girardi in the NY Post holding the Stanley Cup over his head.

wow, it was very real

A lot better than my most recent Rangers dream where we were losing to the Flyers 2-1 and then they scored again. I woke up and was very happy that we had already beaten Philly a few days prior. lol

I mean have you seen the Rangers' Fenwick ratio? The Rangers would be lucky to finish 6th and the Devils are a lock for the Atlantic division.
