My friends and I know about old mand strength as well except we call it dad strength. All Dads know how to fix things, understand insurance policies, know how to buy a used car, have big veins in their hands, laugh at stupid commercials, etc.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, love the blog keep it up!Johnsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22154407.post-85025411161436085262009-03-06T18:32:00.000-05:002009-03-06T18:32:00.000-05:00The biggest knock on the rags is they play like a bunch of gentlemen. Easiest team in hockey to play against, under Renney at any rate. <BR/><BR/>My bandwagon fandom is strictly for all the wrong reasons, having gone to school there during that post cup uselessness - honestly if there ever was a more fucked up team I've never seen it - Messier reading the paper during practice, for example. <BR/><BR/>You're right about Sather. He had the Rangers set up then went out and blew more money on lame asses like Redden, who makes Horcoff look like Joe Thornton by comparison for value. <BR/><BR/>Oddly enough I'd love the Leafs to win the cup. If people think Ranger fans are bad...lol<BR/><BR/>Myself, I like the Leafs also. Toronto is just a shit hot hockey town, and deserves a cup like none other. <BR/><BR/>But for pure endless hate, I just think of that flaming C.hunter1909http://www.blogger.com/profile/05591790801665471272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22154407.post-87092715653939605382009-03-06T18:05:00.000-05:002009-03-06T18:05:00.000-05:00Olivier - he had his moments and I would guess a little more dedication might have made those moments more plentiful.<BR/><BR/>But in the '06 run he was probably a scratch as much as he played and when he played he was usually on the bench. I wasn't unhappy when he left. Great guy but for the money he wanted (and got) he wasn't worth it.<BR/><BR/>Hunter - old man strength, that's what we call it<BR/><BR/>Well, I'll defer to you on the Rangers - Prucha had a damn good year as a rook though and Kalinin was decent with Les Sabres. And I do like Dawes.<BR/><BR/>I just don't think they're going anywhere and moving young cheap players is not a good idea, imo.<BR/><BR/>Sather did his best work with NY after the lockout when he had a budget. As soon as the cap went up he became a dummy again.Black Doghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03583346651230552519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22154407.post-4278226251279734962009-03-06T17:15:00.000-05:002009-03-06T17:15:00.000-05:00any*hunter1909http://www.blogger.com/profile/05591790801665471272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22154407.post-5995760586234002942009-03-06T17:14:00.000-05:002009-03-06T17:14:00.000-05:00Your old man looks strong as an ox. Look at those shoulders! Most guys 20 years younger don't even have shoulders by that age, I'll bet. Reminds me of a now dead uncle(his grandfather had been an original mountie lol), chopping ice like a 25 year old aged 73.<BR/><BR/>As a bandwagon Rangers fan, no way do they lose by dumping and of those lame assed losers to the Yotes. I know the rags blow, but that's more to the Redden/Gomez/Naslund contracts and Jim(I'm a tool) Dolan getting jerked off by Slats since wtf took over. Slats is so past it as a hockey man it's scary these days. <BR/><BR/>All of my hard core Ranger pals are over the moon to be rid of Prucha etc.hunter1909http://www.blogger.com/profile/05591790801665471272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22154407.post-18031636627548377172009-03-06T17:07:00.000-05:002009-03-06T17:07:00.000-05:00"I know Gainey got ripped by a lot of people, especially the genius McGuire, but I think he looks at this team and knows that in the end it will be Price's return to form, or lack thereof, that will determine their fate."<BR/><BR/>Heh. If McGuire think you did badly, then you are doing something right. Tanguay (was there a better player traded at the deadline?) comes back tonight and Latendresse comes back in a week or 2; those aren't superstars, but they push the dregs out of the lineup. Halak is ready to step in Price's job for now They won't bring the cup home, but they'll be fine.<BR/><BR/>Concerning an old Oilers favourite: Sad to say, but Laraque getting hurt for the remainder of the year is a good news too. Still able to beat anybody into a pulp, but with the gloves on, he's a liability, plain and simple. I've been wondering; has George ever been a contributor on the ice? If so, when did he fall of a cliff?Oliviernoreply@blogger.com
