And get it right -- I'm a Sens fan. I'm pretty much as anti-Leaf as they get.

Lundqvist is good now, but he will have his Tomi Salo - esque crash back to earth soon enough.

I hate Avery but he is the only entertaining player to watch on the Rangers right now (again, Lundqvist is ok now too).

The Rangers are no better than a second-round loser as long as Jagr and Drury are wearing Rangers jerseys.

i know because drury and jagr never won cups

please go back to ur own hockey world

Two to Debut Tonight
It's going to be a big night tonight for two young hockey players. Greg Moore and Ivan Baranka will play their first NHL game when the Rangers visit Tampa Bay, according to John Dellapina of Blueshirts Blog reporting from the morning skate. Baranka, brought up in case Jason Strudwick couldn't play, will pair with Strudwick, taking the place of Michal Rozsival (sore knee). With Chris Drury moving to the left wing with Jaromir Jagr, where Moore lines up is not certain at this time -- probably on the third line on right wing, with Petr Prucha moving back to the left side or perhaps to the middle with Marcel Hossa on the left.

Lol -- I was responding to your "Thunder Bay team" barb. I just had to point out that there aren't enough players from big NYC to fill a net in hockey whereas little old Thunder Bay could fill a couple of lines in the NHL(including one of your defencemen). If you dug, I'm sure that there are actually some players from NYC in the NHL right now though.

I don't want people to know of Thunder Bay - we have it pretty good here. If you survey 100 people, 99 will tell you that NYC is an awesome place to visit but a dreadful place to live. Conversely T Bay isn't that great of a place to visit (unless you come drinking out at my camp) but it is a great place to live.

Also: I think we have some sports other than hockey way up here in Canada too, seeing as we have had some Canadian MVPs of MLB & the NBA in the past few years.

Anyway, Lecavalier is going to have his way with no-heart Jagr & his merry band of overpaid pylons tonight. Good luck to you though.

Also:

Drury and Jagr were not anywhere near the reason why their teams won cups.

Drury lucked out that he was playing on the same team as Sakic, Forsberg and Roy -- he is probably the most over-rated player in the NHL.

I can't remember if Dominant Jagr was playing on those Cup winners in Pittsburgh or if Floating Jagr was playing -- either way that was Lemieux's team anyway. Dominant Jagr doesn't show up very often anymore.

Greg Moore & Ivan Baranka

in the end, the Rangers had their tenth win in their last twelve games -- having beaten all comers except for the Islanders (who with another ugly Ranger hangover loss proved that they leave it all on the ice when they face the Rangers). And as they look at their fourth-best standing in the league and their league-best goals against average on the eve of Thanksgiving, they know that they have to thank Hank for that.

HE'S 'LIGHTS' OUT
HENRIK & CO. TOP TAMPA
By LARRY BROOKS
FINISHING TOUCH: Ranger goalie Henrik Lundqvist is congratulated by teammate Paul Mara in Tampa last night after the Blueshirts' 2-1 winover the Lightning.November 22, 2007 -- TAMPA - In the showdown between the irresistible force known as Vincent Lecavalier and the immovable object that is King Henrik Lundqvist, the goaltender stood his ground and the center's might was resisted.

This can be documented by the Blueshirts' 2-1 victory here last night against a Lightning team that had scored 24 goals in its previous five games and came into the match as the highest-scoring team in the East and the second-highest scoring team in the NHL at 3.4 goals per.

This can be documented by virtue of the fact that Lecavalier, who came into the match with a multi-point game streak of eight (7-14-21) - the longest such string in 12 seasons - was held off the board by a combination of Lundqvist's excellence and the Blueshirts' commitment to a defense-first game.

"I read on the [grease] board in here before the game that he had a lot of points in a row, but I didn't think about that too much; I had a lot of focus on my own game," said the King, whose bid for a fifth shutout was spoiled with 16.7 seconds remaining.

"The last couple of games I felt like I was OK, not great, so I played a little deeper and was more square. It worked for me."

It worked for Lundqvist, who made 32 saves, and it worked for the Rangers, who lead the NHL in goals-against at 1.79 per and have held opponents to two goals or fewer in 16 of their 22 matches this season.

That's reflective of more than goaltending. That's reflective of a structure.

"We want teams to say, "It's going to be tough to score on this [Ranger] team tonight," said Paul Mara, who played 24:02 paired with Marc Staal in the absence of Michal Rozsival (sore knee).

This offensive powerhouse received nothing from Scott Gomez, who was dreadful with the puck all night long. There was little from Jaromir Jagr. And while Chris Drury was more assertive in the offensive zone as left wing with Jagr and Brandon Dubinsky, the Blueshirts got their goals from Fedor Tyutin and Colton Orr.

Orr, who scored what proved to be the winner at 2:05 of the third using Brendan Shanahan's stick after breaking his own, not only got his first goal of the season, but he also was effective when he and linemates Blair Betts and Ryan Hollweg were matched against Lecavalier and his revolving sets of wings.

Indeed, Ranger coach Tom Renney sent the Betts line on for the final 16.7 seconds after Michel Oulette's deflection brought the Lightning within a goal.

"It was great for me to get the goal, but our primary responsibility is not to be scored on," said Orr.

"We don't want to let anybody down."

The Rangers didn't let anyone do much of anything.

*

Sean Avery left the game with just under 6:00 to play when he was struck in the left hand by a Shanahan drive. Preliminary X-rays were negative.
