That game was so boring it was like watching paint dry
Does torts know he has 4 lines and not 2. Also can anyone on the rangers not give up the puck to gaborik. The highlight of the game was sim and avery talking smack and the fire sather chants. I can't even talk smack bout the rangers cause I actually feel bad for the fans.
Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
Sammi: Wanna just break up?

I knew they sucked going into the season. I didn't think they would go 11 periods without scoring on even strength though. Your Islanders have done a decent job so far considering the expectations.

"I play good, hard-nosed basketball.
Things happen in the game. Nothing you
can do. I don't go and say,
"I'm gonna beat this guy up."
I think Tortorella's postgame press conference sums it up for us....
On the first period being unacceptable: “Absolutely. I have no explanation for how we started. I wish I could give you one.”
On the Islanders first goal being a “dirty” goal, one gotten simply by skating hard to the net: “That we don’t get. There’s horse*$)#@! coverage around the corners, he just brings it around the net. It’s a fluky goal. But we don’t get them.”
What’s the remedy for the way the team started in the first period: “What is the remedy? I don’t know how you want me to answer that.”
What do you think you need to do: “Play ^#(^&@ harder.”
As the coach, what do you need to do: “That’ll be something we’ll decide before tomorrow’s game.”
Is this group capable of figuring it out as constituted: “I’ll tell you right now, the thing that’s unacceptable about tonight’s game and we’re trying to stay positive around here, trying to work our way through it, but when we play like ^*^#@ like that for 20 minutes in a game like this in a back-to-back situation, it’s unacceptable. I’m not even going back as far as a month and are we capable. It’s simply unacceptable. There has to be something done and we’ll see along the way before tomorrow night’s game. We’ll see where we go with them. It’s just simply unacceptable how we started that game. I wish I could give you a ($@#*%# explanation about it. I can’t.

I also read that Redden took the news of his being scratched rather....poorly.
And in other news, this is from an email a co-worker sent out:
Glen Sather's GM record since 1992-93
Last eight seasons with Oilers (1992-93 through 1999-2000): Missed playoffs four times, won two playoff series (one in 1997, one in 1998). Edmonton's 234-303-89 regular-season record over that span was 23rd-best in the NHL.
First 8 1/2 seasons with Rangers (2000-01 to date): Missed playoffs four times, won two playoff series (one in 2007, one in 2008). The Rangers' 313-286-90 regular-season record over that span ranks them 21st among the 30 NHL teams.
Do you know what the following players have in common?
Selmar Odelein, Scott Metcalfe, Kim Issel, Peter Soberlak, Francois Leroux, Jason Soules, Scott Allison, Tyler Wright, Joe Hulbig, Jason Arnott, Jason Bonsignore, Steve Kelly, Boyd Devereaux, Michel Riesen, Michael Henrich, Jani Rita.
They were the Oilers' first picks in the last 16 drafts that Sather oversaw with Edmonton. Well, he did get one good player (Arnott) out of 16 years of top picks. The others were all complete busts.
His yearly first picks with the Rangers: Filip Novak, Dan Blackburn, Lee Falardeau, Hugh Jessiman, Al Montoya, Marc Staal, Bobby Sanguinetti, the late Alexei Cherepanov, Michael Del Zotto, Chris Kreider.

I suspect the time he was on the injured list for his broken hand
left him either unavailable and or restricted for selection in some form .
