Game 50: Rangers at Flyers
After an incredible rout last game, our Blueshirts are back at it again, this time on the road.
OPPONENT: Flyers
RECORD: 24-21-3
LEADING SCORER: Jeff Carter, 19-23-42
GOALIE: Ray Emery, 2.94 GAA and a .900 save percentage
RANGERS LINES:
Vinny Prospal-Brandon Dubinsky-Marian Gaborik
Chris Drury-Erik Christensen-Ryan Callahan
Christopher Higgins-Artem Anisimov-Enver Lisin

Hank in net
STATE OF THE BLUESHIRTS: Pretty damn good. Two impressive wins in a row. Secondary scoring (HIGGINS! VOROS!). 60 minute efforts. Hank has been tremendous. This team, it seems, is starting to find its groove. Maybe these past two games have been an aberration. We’ll see tonight. But, the past two games have been awesome, and the effort has been awesome. Keep it up, boys.
CRAZY THOUGHT: Hank gets a shutout.
ON THE iPOD: Nothing. Again. I know. Shocking. Still looking for them damn headphones.
FINAL PREDICTION: Rangers 3, Flyers 0
So, watch, discuss, have fun. LET’S GO RANGERS!!!

hate the Flyers so much. I don’t know how any self-respecting person can cheer on such total scum. So annoyed that they’re winning I can’t even take it

Especially if it’s like the last one right off the face off.

I wish more guys did that…I mean, wtf, I know you don’t want to get thrown, but fuck, it can feel good landing punches on a helmet…

Is Redden an enforcer now? I fully expect him to the drop the gloves with Sather/Torts if they want to send him down…haha.
