SHORTHANDED GOALS on a Monday afternoon…
Let’s get straight to the point, the NY Rangers are on a
roll, people! A 7-0 win against an overmatched Nashville
squad that I thought would put up a little fight, much less
a whimper. Granted, the Preds are in a sort of rebuild
under new G.M. Barry Trotz and were without
McDonaugh and Roman Josi, but the goaltending was
horrific!! It was a back to back for both teams, so no
excuses there. They lacked that Smashville mentality
they have always had. They traded Tanner Jeannot, I
know they got a boatload of picks, Trotz better hope they
pan out. Lest we forget, this is the guy who benched
Alexander Ovechkin. They did win the cup that year, and
he took the Islanders to the ECF during the covid year, I
would not want him coaching or G.Mming the Rangers.
He wanted that job and was hoping Drury would fire
Gallant after that tough start, but the team has rallied
and has too much talent to fail. Don’t screw it up
Gerard!! But I digress, the Rangers put on an offensive
clinic and Jaro Halak made 3 saves in the 1st 5 minutes
that seemed to deflate the Preds and energize the boys in blue. Filip Chytil got off the schneid, scoring his 1st
goal in 18 games, on a sweet move thru the Preds
defense. It showed off all of his talent, speed, strength
and power. Not to mention, good hands, kid! Everyone
had a laugh as he followed the puck into the back of the
net and the rout was on!
The top line of Mika, Panarin and Tarasenko kept on
rolling, when Mika scored on a beauty of a feed from
Panarin. Tyler Motte scored quickly there after, on
Troubas assist to the bumper position. K’Andre joined
the rush with Trocheck, and he scored after a nice no
look feed from Trocheck. Lankinen was pulled after
allowing 4 goals on 6 shots. Enter Juuse Saros. The 1st 2
shots he faced, a goal from Panarin on a 4 on 3, and a
shot from the point by Miller, for his 2nd goal and 4th
point in the 1st period?! 4 points in the period by Miller
has never happened in NYR history, by a Defenseman!!
Not Park, Leetch, nor Fox. Crazy. At that point it was 6-0
and there was 45 minutes of hockey left. the Rangers
seemed to let up, although Kreider scored number 32 in
the 2nd. The Predators just wanted out of there and to
never see M.S.G again. What a nightmare. The final was
7-0 Rangers. Back to back shutouts. 15 unanswered
goals going back to the Penguin game. Unbelievable.in blue. Filip Chytil got off the schneid, scoring his 1st
goal in 18 games, on a sweet move thru the Preds
defense. It showed off all of his talent, speed, strength
and power. Not to mention, good hands, kid! Everyone

goals going back to the Penguin game. Unbelievable. That’s now 4 wins in a row, 6-0-1 in the last 7. The chase
for the Metro is on. I read an article 10 days ago by the
great Larry Brooks, who asked if the Rangers were better
than the Devils and the Islanders? What? The Isles
cannopt beat this Ranger team nor an the Devils. Not
with this depth. Not with this talent. Offense, check.
Defense, check. Goaltending, check. Experience, check.
Its on, now. Can we catch Carolina? 2 games and 8
points in the standings over the next 4 days will tell us. I
keep reminding everyone that I said that this homestand
will show us who the real NYRangers are. 4 straight at
home, playing the Hurricanes at just the right time, less
than a month til the playoffs and the Rangers are flying.
Only one note today….just enjoy what you are seeing
folks, its special. Clicking on all cylinders. CAN’T WAIT til
Tuesday night at the Garden. It will be rocking!!!
