Kreider Will Always Remember Playoff OT Winners vs. Caps

Found September 26, 2012 on NY Rangers Blog: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Chris Kreider,  Marian Gaborik,  Marc Staal,  John Tortorella,  Henrik Lundqvist
TEAMS: New York Rangers
In an interview with Jesse Connolly at the Hockey Journal, Chris Kreider discussed his highlight of the Rangers playoff run last year... "I’d have to say the two overtime wins over the Capitals, with Marian Gaborik scoring the winner in triple overtime in Game 3 down in Washington and then Marc Staal scoring in the first overtime in Game 5 back home. It was pretty crazy. Games like that you’ll always remember." ...not a bad way to start your NHL career. Let's hope the second chapter of that career starts sooner rather that later. ...really excited to see him continue to develop this season with the Whale. No doubt he'll be a better player no matter what the outcome of the lockout because of his time with the Whale this year. Kreider also discusses John Tortorella being a yeller and Henrik Lundqvist being the toughest goaltender he has faced among other topics.

Nash didn’t score in regulation, being held to a -1 rating and seven shots on goal, but he did net the shootout winner. His shootout goal gave Davos a 3-2 win, and makes the club 2-0 since inking Nash and Joe Thornton. Remember...

Would Lundqvist benefit from extra rest or a season in Europe?

Via Blue Seat Blogs  |  September 26, 2012
During the past few years, the trail of thought was that if the Rangers could find a way to get their All World goaltender extra rest, he would be better prepared for the grind of the playoffs. Last season saw the Rangers finally able to give Henrik Lundqvist extra rest (thanks to a healthy and reliable Martin Biron) and promptly the Rangers made the conference finals; their finest...

Redden Can’t Play

Via Kukla's Korner  |  September 27, 2012
from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN, At this point, Wade Redden has pretty much seen it all.  Redden is locked out just like 700-odd other NHLers and facing nary a paycheck until the labor impasse is resolved.  Except that, well, Redden hasn’t played in the NHL in 2½ years.  Talk about adding insult to injury. If it didn't hurt his pride enough to be turfed...
