Third preseason game tonight against the pretenders from the island. The lineup has a lot of the usual suspects along with a few of the kids. Rumor has it that Rempe may get the netfront nod on PP2, at least tonight.
Keys to a Ranger victory: Score more goals?
On this date in history: its preseason, come on!

Who will pull a Fox tonight & cough it up in front of the net: ?
PS – 1st!
Laba’s CC teammate is playing for the islanders tonight. Gleb Yeremyev.
Gleb is big, and has some rat in him.
LGR!
I saw the #43 blue uniform and the first thing I thought of was Spider Lockhart.
Blink your eyes and we’re down 2-0
Now 2-1. Pay attention!
The kids are alright
My stream is in preseason 🙁
Good period?

It’s deja vu all over again?
Goaltending has not been stellar tonight.
Rangers are Rangers – you never know and never can de sure regardless of ANY their leading in score….
It’s not over til one team wins!
3rd period curse…and freakeN, WEEK LINK Fox!
The Rangers pre-season will end with one team win.
Garand playing his way to the. Echl
They need 60 minute men. Fox a spectator on the tying goal and all the goals Garand has allowed have been shaky.
If it is a trend – we are doomed and season will be longer than life…
#94 is out there for a lot of goals against.
3 shots in the third? SSDD
Same shots different day.
Heard Zep played the Garden tonight.. the song remains the same! 🤣
They should wear a 🐢 patch on their jerseys. The goaltending was awful though. Igor should fix that.
Game 7! No bs!
another late game collapse?
I am glad Fox worked out in off season. Lift weights and get stronger. OK How do you practice competeing and having a heart.
Any questions?
Sounds like the back up to the back up is not yet ready to be the backup?

Yes. What’s the forecast for the weekend?
So quite.

Sully Prucha’d Fox at the Four Nations. Let’s see if he shelters his minutes.
He’s not a top pair D anymore. Cut back his ice time. No PK, 2nd pair minutes and not on the ice at the end of games. Maximize his value and limit his exposure. He’s TDA without the lousy attitude now.
