Says they'll play, doesn't say it will be next season. If Dolan and Bettman are still having their pi$$ing match, I doubt he'd put the Rangers in the game.

Rangers at yankee stadium is such a huge publicity stunt that Bettman would be stupid not to do this.

which probably means that this won't come to fruition

Man I would love for it to be at the new stadium. It would be a great game to see and would make tons of revenue.

Would have preferred this stadium. Don't care about the unneeded new one.

Is it really necessary?

Yankees stadium eh? Eh, whatever. New Yankees Stadium doesn't have that history. They are better off doing one at New Giants Stadium.

And Marte. This is an excellent trade.

As for the game, I think it will happen in 2010. They tried really hard this season but I just think there were too many obstacles with the stadium closing down. It would have been amazing to see a game there, but it should still be awesome to watch a Rangers game outdoors on New Years Day.

Wouldn't this be great publicity for their new state of the art complex? Having an outdoor game in New York just makes too much sense not to happen, especially with the Rangers at the forefront.

Cynical TyranT · 07-27-2008, 04:39 AM

I heard on the radio that Jorge will get the surgery after the season. I think Matsui will be out for the season.
