This is a good test.

The Jets are a hard working team. Lets see is we found our nutsak and are willing to work as hard and harder.

The way this team has been playing (even in wins) I doubt we match their effort.

They looked great in the 1st period against MTL. We all know where that went. I expect them to come out hard but let's see if they can keep it going for the entire 60mins.

3-1 Rangers. 2 From Marian, 1 from someone else. 2 Assists for BR

Judging by this quote and others, it seems to me that Nash isnt even sure of the extent of the injury he has (Concussion) and hes waiting to be cleared.

He probably had some groin issues creeping back in (which is what he was testing in warmups), maybe dinged up in some other others as well and then the headaches came on. The Rangers probably felt it was best if he just hung em up for a bit to protect their star, and keep everything quiet.

I thought that they put him on the IR retro to the 17th so that he could play tonight if he felt better.

don't expect him to play either way, but I thought that's what they were doing.

I think he's hurt. 4-0? Also I don't think Miller will out with an empty net.

The Jets could be without defenseman Dustin Byfuglien on Tuesday after he left Sunday's contest late with a lower-body issue. However, Byfuglien did partake in the team's optional skate on Monday and should be considered questionable for the game against the Rangers.

Looks like there's more of a chance than I let on.

Partial credit, my wife tells me to shutup when we score and I yell goal, thank God it doesn't happen to often...

Theyre also 14th in the West.

Not sure if this stat is telling of how we often have players that produce better elsewhere or just that its being 2nd in goals and 4th in points on a **** team. Its not as if he would be able to do that here. Hes also averaging 16 minutes a game. No way that would happen here.
