[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]

Hank was our best player. He played really well for us.
They had numerous chances, and we were a little bit nervous there in the third period.
- Mats Zuccarello


Sometimes it's a good thing to get a lot of work.
There's been a lot of games where I've been waiting for shots, and then there's been some odd-man rushes or breakaways, and it's been hard to really get the game going.
A game like this definitely helps you to work on your positioning and a lot of different things, so I'm pleased with the win and the way I played.
- Henrik Lundqvist


Zucc and Pouliot were having a real hard time with their game earlier in the season. Both sat out, both didn't complain to the world about being sat out.
What they did was they rolled their sleeves and they got to work. They analyzed their game and found a way to get back on track.
They are very useful players to our team right now.
- Alain Vigneault

Woooo winnable game \o/ LGR!

11pm start in Norway.. guess I'm watching hockey for new years :p
 
Zucc loves playing against Florida. Points in 4 consecutive games against them (6 points, 4 goals, 2 assists). Expect another good night for the Hobbit.
 
I want a win, and I want Hank to play well and let in 2 or less.

Him getting back to form is pretty crucial for this team moving forward. Nash scoring again wouldn't hurt either.

I'm looking forward to watching Kreids, Zucc and McD as usual, but also seeing Allen and Staal together if that can work.
 
Would be really nice to end the year with a win :)
Technically speaking, we allready did. This one will last way into 2014 for us:) Expect a sloppy first half (2013) and a mindblowing spectacle in the second half(2014).
 
This 5pm start is seriously going to **** up my internal clock.

Hope I can see the whole thing before my friends want to leave for NYE.

Happy New Year everyone!!!
 
For the crazy Norwegians this is about as Perfect gamestart as it gets...

We finish 2013 with a bang...and enter 2014 with a W!

Let's hope our boys are ready...
 
Dangerous game tonight

bad teams usually work hard. Need to out work these guys and put one or two behind the goalie early.

get their heads thinking and not just playing.

I agree. Florida has been playing well lately.

I was really impressed with Bjugstad last game and it will be interesting to see how he plays tonight.
 
Sure Falk sits, they way AV's been talking sounded like Delzaster for sure?
 
Please Rangers win and no "pings" from Thomas to drive everyone crazy.
 
Trades?

What's the word around the Rangers ( media etc…) are they looking to shake things up, perhaps with a big trade? I been hearing the odd thing up here in Canada about them wanting to move Callahan, Del Zotto, Strallman and of course find someone to take Richards contract off their hands. They're too tight to the Salary Cap to do much unless they can move Richards is what we hear. Thoughts….?
