Our sexy sexy boys go for three in a row tonight vs the hapless Aves. The most handsome goalie in the world is expected between the pipes tonight. The Gnasher has been pushed back as the groin ain’t quite healed. The Pumpernickel looking for his second straight Hattie tonight. Let’s hope likely third pair Don G and Over-rated Shay are play better than last game. I’m expecting JT Miller to have a huge game. Nick Holden returns to Denver for the first time since the Rangers fleeced the Aves in a trade that’s worked well for the Blue-Shirts.
I’ll (E3) be doing the the game review as RR2 is still day to day. We expect him back on the first line soon as his upper body, lower body, mid-body injury heals.
Lets go Rangers!!!

1. brooks predictions in post year end article for all sports
The Rangers qualify for the playoffs for the seventh straight year in earning wild-card entry to tournament, but go out in the first round for the second straight season, thus leading to an aggressive summer remodeling program.
2. The Blueshirts send a valuable young asset, perhaps in the form of a draft pick, to Las Vegas in return for the Golden Knights agreeing not to select Antti Raanta in the expansion draft.
3. The organization retires Jean Ratelle’s No. 19 while also honoring Blueshirt immortals Bill Cook and Frank Boucher during 2017-18, the franchise’s 91st anniversary. Next up: recognition for Brad Park, Vic Hadfield and Ron Greschner.

Alex – thanks for the post. Jean Ratelle deserves a rafter hang for sure. Sad day indeed when Brad Park and Jean Ratelle went to the Bruins. Joe Zanusi I could care less about.
Worse, as I’m sure you’d all agree was Ken Hodge coming to the Rangers for Rick Middleton. Perhaps the worst trade ever made in any sport.
