The Rangers are currently tied with the franchise records for most points (30), most wins (14) and least regulation losses (five) through 21 games in team history. The last time the Blueshirts reached these marks was in 1993-94.

The Rangers have allowed two or fewer goals in 16 of their first 21 contests for only the second time since 1943-44, and have posted a 13-2-1 record in those games.

henrik has allowed 2 or fewer goals in the last 16 of 18 games.

:eek:


first meeting for Naslund tonight with his exteam/ exteammates .

stanley cup of 1994 reunion , should be great , if we can keep rolling and getting the 2 points.
it would be nice, however , to get them in regulation for a change.

yeah , but now we have Naslund.

& we've got probably the 2 best netminders going head to head.

The Garden will be rocking - as if PJ were onstage :eek:
.too bad we only play once or twice yearly, itll take us a few seasons to make the record more respectable.

we dont envy those west coast roadtrips from city to city.

Nice to see Naslund doing well .....from all reports we hear locally he seems to be really rejuvenated in the Big Apple. Nazzy as was his nickname here was always a class act, and it was kind of a shame to see him leave the way he did. A few years back that snap shoot of his was second to none in the NHL!

Now for travel don't get me started! We play tonight in NYC tomorrow in Minnesota and back to Pittsburgh for a Saturday morning game??? :rolleyes:

damn, I remember that accident..watching it on TV freaked me out and pretty much convinced my parents that I shouldnt play hockey as a career. Another guy was Norman Leveille back in the 80's I think who suffered something similar :eek:



"After the final hockey game, Bruins stars from several generations took a final skate around the ice. Although greats such as Orr, Esposito, Neely, and Bourque were all there, the center of attention was Norman Leveille, who suffered a cerebral hemorrhage during his one year with the Bruins. Thirteen years later, Leveille walks with great difficulty but on the ice that night, a reporter wrote, "Levielle held his cane in front of him, while Bourque, facing him, pulled him around the ice; the crowd clamored in approval as eyes throughout the Garden filled up with tears . . . memories were still being made and dreams realized at rickety old Boston Garden.""

Henrick's awesome .......but you have to help with this one based on tonight's game

Henrick 17 shots 5 goals :eek: .706 save %
Luongo 42 shots 3 goals .929 save %

Well you could see that coming. Eventually all those slow starts were going to come back to burn them. Even with that third-period barrage, once they got three, I felt that was that. It's alarming that a lot of the recent goals against are either breakaways or off turnovers. Two breakaways tonight and three goals of turnovers, including that old puck gets caught in the skates at the point on the power play nonsense.

yeah, i set myself up for that one!

slow starts & short handed goals... this team's story for the past couple of weeks.

chalk it up as a bad loss and move on to the next game boys....let's go.
We're still one of the best teams in the league so nothing to stress about. Always room for improvement tho,... lets just keep playing hard and we'll be ok
