I have a feeling this game will get a little nasty.

The refs have put their whistles up their asses.

Rangers are definitely getting hosed with a bunch of non-calls. Friggin' refs are blind.

I think the big boys in Toronto want the Rangers to lose tonight because some of these non-calls are glaring penalties. |

It would've been nice to see some kind of teammate reaction to the knee on Fox that knocked him out of the game. But this is New York Rangers hockey, after all. They play the 'right way'.   |

Game Observations
1) That was a real gut check having to play a good defensive team without their best offensive defenseman and one of their best offensive forwards,
2) Everybody pulled their weight when they had to mix and match lines and defense most of the game.
3) It's easy to see the power play isn't the same without Fox.

Good win! Down 2 men, and they stayed with it and didn't give up much ice to Carolina. Last year and the year before that, their defense succumbs to mistakes and they lose that game 4-1

What a way to grind out a win against a very good team tonight. Another 2 points in the bag!

That was a really tough win, very little room to work. The Rangers had to earn that one. Great defensive effort, Igor was stellar again, Trouba was a beast, and very happy for Will Cuylle for scoring the game winner. Nice job all around.

They interviewed Trouba, and he said he challenged Aho, but Aho declined. That's fine. But that's not enough of a deterrent; neither is Laffy having a chat with him about it.
My assessment is that Aho should've been targeted all game long with clean hard checks that made him dizzy ... and that didn't happen.
As far as we could see on the ice, the Rangers' overall response to his kneeing one of the best players in the league was absolutely LAME.
Was getting the 2 points the ultimate revenge? Hhmm... Maybe. Maybe not.
Hopefully Adam's injury is not serious and not lingering. Fingers crossed.

Happens every time Fil doesn't see one coming. Is his chest made of glass or what?
