Ranger 5-game win streak; Hawk 1-game win streak.

Rags 3-2.

Is Kenny Albert really the best NBC can give us? He is fine for football but hockey, not so much. All it seems he does is state the time and score, over and over.

I fear the wife or neighbors will one day find me dead of boredom.

Hmmm. I don't know here.

Edit: Cool, but I kinda think we got away with one there.

Woo hoo!

He does radio for the Rangers (and their TV guy is Sam Rosen). Maybe he's overcompensating on the switch to television and being too sparse, I dunno. Probably wouldn't be working in New York if he couldn't call a game. Everything is better in New York.

The only thing this team does better than ignore the rules for getting on and off the ice at the correct time is get penalties at the end of the period. If NY doesn't score with those excruciatingly long 3 and a half minutes of PP time then they will have gassed the PK unit so much they will surely tie this thing if not more. Get your fucking stick down rook.

They don't look all that bad tonight, but 13 SOG through 2? Oof...

I was going to say there must still be vestiges of Torts's "six-goalie system" there, but the Hawks only have six blocked shots and seven missed shots to the Rags' 13 and 6, respectively, so they're just not shooting in any way tonight.

No, it's "blow two-goal leads." Whatever, the Rangers beat the Hawks almost every time they play, take the loser point and enjoy this winter carnival up in Minneapolis.

Last five games:

10/07/2015: Rangers 3, Hawks 2
3/18/2015: Hawks 1, Rangers 0
3/08/2015: Rangers 1, Hawks 0
2/27/2014: Hawks 1, Rangers 2
1/08/2014: Rangers 3, Hawks 2

Team has our number, which is either 1.2 (goals per) or .200 (winning percentage), I guess.

Well Vinny is probably never going to play again for Q after that.

I'll never forget the time Craig Adams took a double-minor that turned into two Stamkos power-play goals. I believe he was waived the next day. So, uh, happy Rockfording, Hinostroza, guess we'll see Kero up for the stadium game.

Ehhh, Vinny will get another chance - after a season-and-a-half in Rockford.

Boy, the Rangers are sure a rag-tag bunch, no? Stalberg, Boyle, Yandle, et al...

Oh you know he is going back to Rockford after the game. No way in hell they will let him enjoy the outdoor festivities after being responsible for that.

Even at full strength, I'm never all that enamored of the Rangers' rosters. I've never thought Rick Nash was anything but a slug. Marc Staal is overrated by dint of being a Staal but is still probably the best one because at least he's not his fuckface brothers. No one has ever conclusively proven to me that Dan Girardi, Derek Stepan, and Ryan Callahan aren't all the same person.

God do I ever love this new game tracker. I enjoyed the 5 on 1 power play the Rangers just had. Vinny did a hell of a job killing that 4 man advantage.

Then there's Lundquist...still seems to get more accolades than he deserves.

Maybe Vigneault is a pretty good coach, after all.

Why couldn't Daniel Paille crack our roster ahead of Garbutt, Mashinter, and sundry Rockford callups? He ended up signing outright with Rockford and then being released to sign with the Rangers.

I think I'm also done with the Panik fill-in on the first line. Throw Tayvo back up there for a game or two.
