I wouldn't say that. Lalonde kind of handed you the game with the last 3 regulation goals, but then found his focus again in a big way. It was an extremely entertaining game. I'm looking forward to a potential playoff matchup.

I mean sure, but I don't think Parsons let's in 4 goals on 13 shots if you play that game again....

I would agree with that.

Credit to Schaubel for righting the ship and having an outstanding second half of the game. That could have went sideways quickly for a young goaltender.

Three of our goals were deflections and the fourth banked in off Hlacar. What are your expectations for a tender?

But for Lalonde, Rangers likely win in regulation.

Hats off to both goalies in the shootout.

Schaubel was amazing in the shoot out for a rookie goalie. Looked like a vet in there. Soo did a decent job of breaking up the Rangers plays and kept them to the outside. Lalonde made some incredible saves. Rangers never seem to get too rattled in games. They have the confidence to keep grinding away.

Any video available of that whole shootout?

Yeah, that would be a good one if you missed it. He had the left going at a pretty good pace.

I believe they’ve added one already through CHL waivers

This didn’t happen? Or it’s a next year addition?

This did happen… clearly the team just didn’t announce the claim and are holding onto him heading into next season with Pobezal and Chrenko who are also still protected

……..Factor in four very good draft picks in the first three rounds next year, in what is supposed to be a strong draft in first two rounds, and our 09 group should be strong contributors to the 26–27 season…….

Despite the Rangers owning those two high Peterborough picks for the upcoming draft, I admit to still having felt a bit sorry for the Pete’s at the beginning of the season. Not so much anymore. In fact now, with around two dozen games left, I wouldn’t be surprised if they get past a few teams by game number 68 the way they’re playing. Who saw that coming?

With all those comp picks inflating this year’s first round, combined with the fact that Rangers could very likely pick 2nd or 3rd last in the first round, I still had hope for some “reasonably placed” 2nd and 3rd round picks for the Rangers. I’m not quite as optimistic now. On the other hand I suppose if we had a couple of expansion teams enter the league next season it could have been worse.

Vader didn’t seem to know he was a southpaw

So after viewing the highlights of the Sag vs Spits game, I would think there will be some extra attention on McCue tonight...

Flint, but yes! He's a killer. Was for OS, too.
