    I can still open a bottle of beer with my teeth. I especially love to do it around friends with dental implants.

    Would you prefer to be the second first, or the first second?

  5. Norm Merton Avatar

    I can accurately fire a beer bottle cap across the room with a finger snap, like it’s my job. That was at least two weeks of college getting that down. Maybe more like a month.

    I get fart on a lighter creating a blow torch effect….I can also fart in command.

  7. Norm Merton Avatar

    Blow torch, yes. Command, no. Which makes the first part a bit of a struggle.

    I still can’t believe there’s not a better option than Haley. No 4th line rollout tonight, though there’s always a slim hope they’ll have a good shift and build on it.

    As to Lemieux, I am tempted to rip off the Pyhons and hope it comes to pass that St. Brendan has been taken from this place to another place, where he has been lain upon pillows of silk and made to rest amongst sheets of muslin and velvet. And there stro-ked he by maidens of the Orient. He deserves it.

    Ranger PP comes through again for the opposition. They made Jonathan Quick (.880 save %) look great Tuesday’s and they are doing the same with the pathetic Martin Jones.

    sharks look awful defensively, we should have like 5 goals and yet…

    We would killed have Lundqvist for not stopping that one. Nothing against Georgiev, who’s been other-worldly. Just sayin’.

    What is Kreider doing there? And if we are on PP how come everyone is always covered?

    When this power play is over, San Jose will be 3 for 2 on the penalty kill.

  35. Norm Merton Avatar

    Carbon copy of LA 1st. Dominate, good PP with no goals, bad mistake, down 1-0. Time to change the script 2nd period, almost always their worst.

  36. EvBreadriser Avatar

    9-2 after a loss

    They will say anything to make weak plays “good” or “great” plays. Losing control of the puck and letting it slide softly away is not a good play.

    That couture goal wasn’t on Georgie but he played it horribly

    Rangers need to realize he’s not his usual untouchable self, tighten it up a little.

    Maybe Trouba thought he was playing goalie there.

    Way to continue to let sucky teams end time of droughts and give them confidence when they sorely need it.
    Idiotic. Just idiot. An IQ of 6 between everyone on the ice for that last one.

    Kreider and Buch are as close to useless As tits on a man

  71. EvBreadriser Avatar

    Even the goalie shouldn’t back away that much.

  72. EvBreadriser Avatar

    I just came from a bunch of morons playing the Islanders. I don’t need to come home (for three second game in a row) to watch a duplicate game except for the better crowd.

  73. EvBreadriser Avatar

    Papa, I’d probably throw Kakko in there too right now.

  74. EvBreadriser Avatar

    That was a hook, not a trip. But it’s 2 minutes off the clock either way

    Pull the goalie again, Bob. Let’s get Zibanejad a hat trick too.

  102. EvBreadriser Avatar

    Great game by the offense when the goalie was shaky. They need to learn how to do that when Lundqvist is playing.

  103. EvBreadriser Avatar

    Consecutive hat tricks for Panarin with the Rangers on the ice.

  104. TYM Avatar

    So the Rangers have played 3 games on this trip and won 2. The only loss I attended. Warning you all that I am attending the next one against the dreadful Ducks, so they will probably split the road trip.

    Carp was just asking Quinn a question.

    I don’t care if he wanted to meet me or not. I just want to be able to tell everyone I met the big kahuna, the carp himself.

    Ignorance is bliss, so long as he smiles towards me I’ll play dumb and act like sally fields.

    ‘He liked me, he really really liked me’

  136. TYM Avatar

    I met him at the Garden a couple years ago. I was surprised to find out Carp is actually traveling again. Those years of watching on TV and writing are gone, I guess. We can talk about what Boomers talk about, seeing as how we both are.
