Thank you Kitchener!! Great game

Rangers best game in at least the past 6-8 weeks. Didn’t give Barrie much and started the game better than they have the last while. Good job controlling the neutral zone and the back checking was very noticeable.

Nice rebound win on the road for the Rangers! Dominated every period on the shot clock.

About as clean a win that you’ll see; really great outing again tonight. Two strong showings from the post deadline group (save the first 10 minutes from yesterday)

Would love to see Xu get an ‘A’ card and join this team full time, he belongs.

Thank you Kitchener!! Great game

You’re welcome! You can return the favour on March 7!

Excellent defensive game by the Rangers last night. Controlled the neutral zone for most of this game. Colts managed some excellent scoring chances a few times but Parsons made incredible saves stopping them. One thing of note is the Rangers are tied for the leagues best goals against at 105 with the Knights. They would even be more successful if they could get that GF bumped up.
Jussi got them off to a better start last night.

Really interested to see if Schaubel gets the start today. Would say really good chance he does but if he doesn’t, have to wonder if there’s something brewing to keep him under 10 games still.

Very true. There is zero reason to play your starting goalie 3 days in a row. The back up has to take one of those games.

The Sale watch is back on too….he didn’t play last night.

Valetini with a hat trick last night.

Agree with Jives. Schaubel should start today. If he doesn’t, it’s a blatant attempt to keep him under 10 games until the last possible minute.

Sale not playing is interesting. Surely that has been enough time off now, no?

 

[Matttheleaf]

Today has been a week since the bronze medal game so I could see him returning now, but if he doesn't play in the next game or 2 then I think something would be up.

Perhaps the team sent him to that spa as a perk before sending him down. Sort of a "sorry about that but this is the best for all of us Enjoy yourself before heading back to the True North strong an free".

Maybe promoting this new clothing line is taking up all his time so can’t make it to the rink in time for the games

It’s def not ideal to run Parsons out there again tonight. He wasn’t overly taxed last night but I think you run the risk of injury trotting him out again this evening. Now if he does play this evening I think we have to start wondering if there is something else going on in the background. Sale is an interesting one. I think he would be a great addition if we get the player that I saw at the WJC. It would just stretch out our lineup even that much more. It would def be a great coup.

We have room for Sale without restricting Schaubel’s GP. Holding Schaubel back means to me that MM is holding out until the last minute in the event an 08 flyer reports.

 

[RangerNation]

Well, there you go, Parsons..

 

[OnlyUpFromHere]

Well, there you go, Parsons..

Something’s gotta be up… there’s just no way at this point

 

[RangerNation]

FYI, Sale was back in tonight for CV.

 

[nelli27]

Misa with 2 assists after two periods...he assisted on both Ranger goals!

 

[RangerNation]

Rangers look tired, but that's no excuse for the refs to be this bad. Yeesh. Saginaw doesn't score their 3rd goal without slashing the Ds stick out of their hands. And the missed delay of game too. Tough break.

 

[I Mac 80]

Didn’t look good when Elinas left the ice. Hope he’s ok and it’s not as bad as it looked.

 

[Fastpace]

Cameron Read is consistently improving with each passing shift. He is truly exceptional.

 

[bobber]

Coach never seem to pleased in his interview post game. Reid had a great game. Arquette was flying the whole game. Rangers directed a bunch of shots right into Oke's pads. He had those angles covered well. Rangers have to get more from the top two lines going forward into the 2nd half.

 

[dmead]

Parsons getting big minutes. Trying to keep up with London and Windsor? Parsons is a work horse but you gotta give your BUG some reps.

Rangers upcoming schedule is spaced out fairly well so Parsons might not sit for a while. Hope it doesn't wind up getting him hurt. Been one of my favourite tenders since he joined the Rangers.
