Big Joe is on fire.

I was at the Rangers game again last night and it was a pathetic effort. The more I see of Rick Nash the less I like him. I doubt he will score 10 goals with his style of play. There is a lot wrong with this team as I had said way back when the trade was made. They are way too thin in depth and talent. Not to mention they lack the hitting and intensity of last year's team. They were close last year but they they took that one foolish step forward but cost them 6 steps , one for each player gone, backwards.

How about that Malkin huh.... Super skilled but man does he play dirty. When you see him live you really see how much he gets away with on the ice.

Nice try thornton trying to get a jump on the big guy. Safe to say Buffalo changed their image.

Staal knocked him on his butt for jamming away at Lundquist..they both got roughing..and Sid kicked the feet right out from under Gaborick and neither ref made the call. So we let Sid and the refs know how we felt. The fans were more into the game than the players who seemed to be just going through the motions. Then Torts stupidly put out Ashum and Rupp 3 times during the closing moments of the game and neither one even as much as touched any Pittsburgh players.

Too early to say Fire Torts?

I'd say so. You guys lost so much character on the team as you have said in the past. We are loving Prust here.

Nice video. Thorton's such a plug & Scott's a beast. I thought the Sabes would have brought him up last year to deal with Lucic after the Miller incident but they didn't.

You're very fortunate to have Prust. I wish we had him. He brings a lot of sandpaper to the game and has good hands around the net.

Makes me so happy we didnt give the package that the Blue Jackets wanted... Couture/Clowe or Pavelski/Clowe

Malkin has always been a dirty sob, Amazing player but I cant stand the guy, he gets away with so much

Scott was with the Rangers last year I think.

My Rangers should have paid Prust what he wanted. Asham and Rupp are fricking "irrelevant"...

Nash would be a good second line player for us. Putting him on the first line with his lack of speed is useless. Slats overpaid for him (what a shock).

No third line or fourth line offense at all. I picked them to represent the East but seriously will have to rethink that. In other words, we are done. At least I have NHL Center Ice to watch Torts and his facial expressions during the game.

I feel the need to increase my "Moviefan" Blu-ray or PS3 collection, and what a nice coincidence, we face Buffalo tomorrow...

Brad Marchand took offense to Sabres coach Lindy Ruff calling a timeout with a mere 13.6 seconds remaining in Buffalo's blowout win.

"Ruff wants to be a big shot, and it was not the best play to do…pretty disrespectful," said Marchand.
