"Hey James, I need help with anatomy homework. What bone connects to the knee? It's the back of the skull, right?"

"James, what stick do you recommend for someone who needs help crosschecking someone else in the face? #askneal"

"If you could meet any person in history, which one would you most like to meet and knee in the back of the head?"

"#AskNeal James, my roommate stole my food. should I lunge at his head, elbow him in the temple or drive my knee into his skull?"

:laugh:

Rnagers score to tie the game with 2 minutes left minutes after Brass ran Mike Smith injuring him.

NYR win in OT. Wow. We keep falling behind and the 3rd metro spot looks like a distant memory

Were you watching the Coyotes game or just watching the score? Coyotes played a good game. Losing your hot goalie with only minutes left in the third does affect your game.

Yes, but nobody bothered trying to block the GTG, it was a point shot, and the back door was wide open in OT. How do you not have a man there

We're now 6 back of NY but they jump Philly for 2nd spot. We're 5 points back of the 3rd spot which is still bad. I think we do have 2 games in hand over NY so if we somehow win those 2 games, we would be 2 points back. Which then makes it a close race again. But winning the two games in hand will be hard.

It sucks that Philly/NY plays each other on Wednesday. Hope for a Philly win in reg I guess because of the games in hand over NY.

No time any longer to watch who is in front of the Jackets, time to concentrate on the teams battling right around us. I don't see the Rangers dropping enough games now for the Jackets to get back into third.

Honestly, if we have to miss the playoffs, I'd love to see all those smug Rangers fans joining us on the outside looking in. That appears unlikely, but I can dream.

I know its 4v4, but watching Boston, enter the zone, drop passes, Dmen joining the rush, why don't we ever do these things without looking stupid? I haven;t seen too many O zone pinches by our dmen this year.

Not so sure about that considering Philly's schedule the rest of the way. If we win a couple this week and Philly struggles this could level out pretty quick again.
The Rangers have an easy road (in theory). Don't think they'll drop below 2nd now.

Because every time one of them does, one of the more astute hockey strategists here yells "Wiz, JJ, Savard, Toots,etc. WTF are you doing there?" ? :laugh:

Chris Kreider expected to be out of NYR lineup for extended period: at least a month, maybe much longer. Hand injury, possibly broken bone.

Europe. Somewhere.
Leafs are getting manhandled beyond what you'd ever expect of one NHL team versus another. I mean, they look like children out there. If they somehow manage to steal points from this game, FML.
