[quote user="Kase-1"]I love the Rangers coach, John Tortorella

It's a cheap, dirty hit," adding, "I wonder what would happen if we did it to their two whining stars." He called the Penguins "one of the most arrogant organizations in the league," saying that "they whine about this stuff all the time, and look what happens." And then, one final shot: "It's ridiculous, but they'll whine about something else over there, won't they? Starting with their two ****ing stars."

On Crosby: "This guy gets away with too much in my opinion, whines to the refs all day and all night. It’s a joke."

So, why doesn't someone just take him those 2 out every game? If it becomes commonplace, it won't be nearly as controversial. lol
<u>Whos the Rangers' enforcer??</u> lol</p>[/quote]Well just about everyone on the Rangers drops the gloves, but the 2 that
do it the most would be Mike Rupp and Brandon Prust... Im pretty sure
Prust leads the NHL in fights. I just checked on
http://www.hockeyfights.com/leaders/players/

And the Rangers actually have 3 guys in the top 10 in fights with Prust (20), Rupp (13), and Bickel (12).... We got a group of a bunch of tough bastids
[/quote]Everyone can enforce. haha. Prust is the man. Stall too. Yea pretty much everyone on the team
But the thing with Crosby is (imo) the NHL is protecting their poster child. Hes a baby. I also read the NHL is trying to discourage fighting as well. Has Crosby ever dropped his gloves??
[/quote]Prust is one of my favorites on the team, he's got a great motor and like everyone currently on the Rangers, he's a team 1st player.... Oh and he was excellent on 247

Staal is good, but Im more of a Girardi and McDonough fan, Staal is a phenomenonal defender, but he's a little soft for my taste

Argh, the NHL discourages fighting and then players get dangerous with the cheap shots and stick penalties. Now, you know that if you cheapshot the opponents star player, the next time you step on the ice you're getting pounded into oblivion. Fighting keeps the injuries and cheap shots to a minimal
[/quote]Its good because the players police themselves.

you growing out your beard for the playoffs??

We were talking more about our 'tough guys' and defensemen, but NYR fans LOVE Boyle. Any blue-collar, small detail oriented player is def a fan favorite around here, just look at our Captain. Everyone down here appreciates Boyle, if anything I feel like Fedortenko is one of if not the most underated Ranger

....Boyle's in front of the net presence is excellent as well

And Id love to see a nice NY-Boston rumble

Face off wins are HUGE in the playoffs. That is one department where i wish we were a little better. Besides Bergeron its pretty much a big drop off. I think our team is rounding into shape just at the right time though...The Penguins will be a tough matchup for either of our teams..I hope the Flyers take them the **** out or at least beat them up for the next round...
