[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]

I loved the way we responded, both in the second period and with a big goal in overtime.
- Henrik Lundqvist

This was a very big win for us after two losses. We needed this win badly.
- Marian Gaborik

We didn’t break, we didn’t give whereas the past couple of games, that was nowhere to be found as far as stepping back up.
- John Tortorella

Heads Up: The GDT is work in progress.

[Greg02]

Let's get a streak going.

 

[Kakko]

Flyers will be hungry. Then again, that looks like the worst second line in the league

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Start Marty in this game?

 

[BlueshirtBlitz]

Flyers due for a W. Don't see them going 0-4 unless the Rangers really deserve a win.

Hope they don't take them lightly and start off as well as they did tonight.

 

[broadwayblue]

Flyers are really banged up. Let's take it to them and get back to .500.

 

[Nanaki]

Right back at it. I like it!

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Start Marty in this game?

Rather play hanke just to get his confidence back, he doesn't look so great rn.

We need to get a streak going right now. We don't have that much time.

 

[Machinehead]

Well, we got a win...

 

[Kershaw]

Flyers due for a W. Don't see them going 0-4 unless the Rangers really deserve a win.

Hope they don't take them lightly and start off as well as they did tonight.

Feel the same way.

That being said, start Biron tomorrow and Lundqvist on Saturday.

 

[RGY]

Marty should play. So should Kreider for that matter since we have the ridiculous discussions going on about him going to the minors. Let the kid get some damn confidence. And let him get it against a very suspect defense, a team without Hartnell due to injury, and Brayden Schenn due to a suspension. Plus I don't think Briere and Meszaros are 100% after recovering from injuries. Get that 2nd win of the season. They need to be on the attack from the get go like tonight.

 

[FultonReed]

do it again!

LGR!

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

So looks like scoring isn't the problem any more. If hanke and the defense step up, we will be a very tuf team to play against.

 

[Kakko]

Hank tomorrow, Marty against the Leafs

 

[3rdlineglory]

I know the Flyers are "due" for a win, but they are really banged up right now. The Rangers should take advantage to get a streak going and bring down the confidence of a fellow contender.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Repeat. Except Gabs with 2 goals and Nash with a Hattrick. Ricktrick? Nashtrick?

 

[Giacomin]

Rangers are better than the Flyers. They should win!

 

[Blue777]

Flyers lineup looks very mediocre with all those injuries. Rangers should win!

 

[Fitzy]

We can do without the arrogance. Early season, no camp playing in the second of a back to back. Good news is we only have 4 more to go after this one.

The Flyers will play us tough. They have had a tough start and are going to want to get a win in the worst way.

 

[Doctyl]

shut down giroux and exploit their ****** defense

 

[Kane One]

I'm not a fan of starting Biron here. I know Lundqvist is off his game, but he's our best bet if you want to take care of a struggling team.

 

[Tawnos]

We can do without the arrogance. Early season, no camp playing in the second of a back to back. Good news is we only have 4 more to go after this one.

The Flyers will play us tough. They have had a tough start and are going to want to get a win in the worst way.

Especially since they didn't get one against us last year.

 

[Captain Taco]

Rangers just called up Kris Newbury so now we see what the plan is with him. Most likely to replace Bickel and not Kreider. Hopefully he takes advantage of another chance on the big stage

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Thanks NJ for getting Schenn suspended for our game lol

 

[The Lunatic Fridge]

Play Biron tomorrow. Philly is crippled on offense its the perfect oppurtunity.

Although Lundqvist does suck against Toronto and Biron Dominates them so...
