Game #75: Yet another Penguins humiliation

Well, at least they started out well. The Rangers actually got the game’s first two goals. Then, the Penguins remembered who they are and humiliated the Blueshirts 5-2 at MSG to improve to 3-0 versus our team. They’ve now outscored … Continue reading

Game #74: Strome’s overtime winner gives Georgiev another victory over the Leafs

Maybe these games don’t have the same meaning to some. Don’t tell the Rangers. They went into Toronto and earned a hard fought 2-1 overtime win over the Maple Leafs. Ryan Strome scored the OT winner at 1:48 on a … Continue reading

Rangers can gain ground in Lottery race with loss at Toronto

I don’t advocate tanking. I’m glad the Rangers aren’t under coach David Quinn. They continue to play hard, but haven’t been winning games. Since the trade deadline, they have one victory. I’ve lost track of what the exact total is. … Continue reading

I’ve been so used to writing emo recaps lately, I actually started to type in Coyotes 2 in the title space as if they’d won this afternoon’s game before catching myself. For once the Devils did win a hockey game, … Continue reading

Game #74: Troubled Tuesday – Caps 4, Devils 1

Welp another day, another Devils defeat. And also another day, another major Devils injury. If this season wasn’t so catastrophic, the predictability would be laughable. Of course the game is of (at best) secondary importance with Binghamton losing to a … Continue reading

Game #73: Sliding Sunday – Avalanche 3, Devils 0

In seasons past, Devils related countdowns would be the number of points left to clinch a playoff spot or a division title. Now the only countdown is the number of games left in the season (nine left) before we can … Continue reading

Game #72: Nothing Wild about latest Rangers loss to Minnesota

Like I stated before in the previous game recap, there’s nothing fun about these games now. Sure. The Rangers have yet to be mathematically eliminated from the postseason. But with 10 games remaining, that’ll soon come. They can only get … Continue reading

Game #71: Playing out the string isn’t fun as Rangers Flame out in Calgary

FIVE POINTS FOR CHUCKY!#NYRvsCGY | #Flames pic.twitter.com/HAcgwbL0Oh — Calgary Flames (@NHLFlames) March 16, 2019 I’ll be honest. As the season winds down, it gets harder and harder to watch these games. The Rangers are a very bad team since trading … Continue reading
