[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]

It’s good, I thought we had a much better team game.
I thought we did a much better job in our own zone with and without the puck, patrolling the front of our net a little better, being more aware and assertive with the puck.
We controlled it and didn’t give it away. When you do that it’s easier to play offense because you have the puck more of the time. This got to be the staple of our game.
It’s got to be the trademark of our game and, if it’s not, it’s obvious game to game.
- Dominic Moore

It was huge for us. We had to finish strong. We came out flying tonight. The guys got the first goal and never looked back.
We took care of both ends, and that's why we got the result we did.
- Cam Talbot

Our guys came out and moved the puck well and got some good opportunities and we were able to finish them.
- Alain Vigneault​

[silverfish]

Does Carcillo go tonight? Probably not. Well, I hope not, at least

A shame for him that Gabby is hurt, then he could jump him again. This time, Girardi can watch with ease

LGR

Just rewatched that video. Forgot how hard Dubinsky tried to get into the pile to help Gabby. And then immediately got into the penalty box and went right to yell at "CarBoomBomb"

This ****ing organization

 

[darko]

Please win.

 

[nyr2k2]

Time to start building some momentum and jumping back into a playoff spot.

 

[Vickers8]

Time to start building some momentum and jumping back into a playoff spot.

Gotta start winning at home...

 

[JaeTM]

Going to this one tonight. First game in a while. Can't wait to see the renovated Garden.

That said, I'm fully expecting us to get shutout as we scored 7 goals last game.

 

[KingP]

wonder who in net

cant wait to see what we do after last game. hope we can string some together

 

[Ail]

Time to start building some momentum and jumping back into a playoff spot.

No thanks.

Can't wait to see "Carbomb." Should be a real treat.

 

[Punxrocknyc19*]

we all know that whenever Carcillo will get into the lineup that JT Miller will be once scratched again..

 

[OverTheCap]

D. Moore., Boyle, and Miller played great last game - can't wait for this line to be broken up so we can get Carbomb in the lineup!

 

[KreiMeARiver*]

I have a feeling Hank gets the start. Just my $.02

 

[Wolfy*]

Why the heck is Zucc on the 3rd line? The most effective forward these days

I think Carcillo will be in, it's important to replace Dorsett's physical play. Oh wait, we have Kreider, our new fighter...

 

[Loff]

The saviour.

 

[Giacomin]

A big game tonight. The Rangers better start playing at MSG like a playoff team should!

 

[Loff]

Andrew Gross ‏@AGrossRecord 55s

Lundqvist first goalie off.

Good.

Steve Zipay ‏@stevezipay 1m

Looks like Falk and Carcillo scratched

 

[UlfNilsson]

Payback for the Gaborik assault - trade for Carcillo, bury him in the AHL for the rest of his "career".

 

[RangerBoy]

Zuccarello is not on the third line. Richards and Callahan are on the third line.

Looks like Falk and Carcillo scratched

Actually shocked at him being scratched.

 

[Bardof425*]

we all know that whenever Carcillo will get into the lineup that JT Miller will be once scratched again..

If the idea is to win hockey games and not play favorites, JT Miller needs to be in the lineup every night. He is playing strong at both ends of the ice which includes creating offense. Find someone else to sit when Carcillo is inserted.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

I think it's time to change up our first line. It kills me to say it, but I feel like Kreider's production is being stunted by playing with Steps and Nash.

Put him with Zucc imo.

 

[Brief Candle]

Here's the plan. We sneak into the Colombus locker room. We remove Dubi and Artie's gear. We replace it with Nash's gear.

NO ONE WILL KNOW!

Miller last man in = first man out.

Btw...Nash should wake up from the dead tonight, his first game against his old team he used to lead.

 

[Rangers ftw]

Here's the plan. We sneak into the Colombus locker room. We remove Dubi and Artie's gear. We replace it with Nash's gear.

NO ONE WILL KNOW!

They will know five spin-o-ramas and five turnovers later...HE'S BACK!
