The Daily Sports Rant

Its on!!!!
Canada is expected to win it all.  Not if we can help it.  There are so many teams that are stacked in this tournament.  It aint going to be easy, but I really love our chances for the Gold…

Nice 4 – 2 victory last night over the Islanders, but the presence of  Sean Avery was definitely a factor.  When guys go out of their way to try and hit him, it totally gets them off their game.  All in our favor though…2 wins in a row and a tough test on Sunday with [...]

Sean Part Deux!
In the most unsurprising move of the 2008-09 Rangers season, Sean Avery is back on the Rangers.  Thanks to some underhanded dealings from Glen Sather to the Dallas Stars (to be revealed after the season is over I am certain).
Now for a brief but glorious bio of his Ranger days:
Sean Avery has skated [...]

So is this the man that will lead the New York Rangers to the promised land?  In Rangerland, the expectations have been so dampered, that we are just hoping to make the playoffs.  I knew that we would cool after the hot 10 -2 start, but never figured we would stop scoring altogether.
Sather is a [...]

Your New York Rangers get big win this week over Capitals in wild & wacky Shootout 5-4…I think more luck than anything else since their PP went o-fer again (a huge gap in this team’s success).  Maybe Sean Avery will give the spark they need but still too many parts from competing.    That is, if [...]

I hate to say this, but the more losses we have, the more [...]

As always, Rangers do up it up with class and with the classiest Ranger ever (at least in the pas 20 years).  No one worked harder and fought for teammates better than Adam Graves.
Not just talking about the goals he scored, but what he meant to the team overall.
I remember when we got him from [...]

I guess this weekend was exciting if you love college basketball and nothing else.
Watched the NHL All Star Game and Skill Competition only because they were on TV.  Basically pond hockey for the pros.
Lets see if the Rangers can not just make the playoffs but finish strong.  Will be interested in seeing what happens at [...]

Dear Michal Roszival.  We dont hate you today.  Why? Because you scored 2 goals in the Rangers 3 -2 OT victory over the LA Kings last night.  One for a Penalty Shot.  Go figure…
Rangers are now 2 – 0 on their sole west coast swing this year.  Not too shabby.  Rangers improve overall to 22 [...]

Rangers defeat Ottowa Sens 2 -1 in a shootout last night at MSG for 3rd Win in a Row, extending their lead in the Division by 4 points over surging Boston…
Ok, lets not get too crazy here folks. I have watched most of these games and this team is not a world beater, just [...]
