Eric Engels: Heartbreak in Game Four, Prust and Price Down
The iconic image of this series may very well be Brandon Prust keeled over on his only shift in overtime, clutching his abdomen in pain.
A true gut-shot.
He felt it.
The Habs felt it.
Canadiens fans are feeling it.
After four games, the Canadiens trail the Senators 3-1, having outplayed their pesky opponents in three contests.
The Canadiens have been decimated...
Montreal's Prust called Ottawa Coach MacLean 'a bug eyed fat walrus'

Brandon Prust calls Ottawa coach Paul MacLean a "bug-eyed fat walrus"
Things turned sour pretty quickly in the Montreal-Ottawa series, didn't they? One hit and one brutal injury later, two teams that entered the series with a friendly rivalry have become bitter rivals. All respect has evaporated. Meet what should be a physical, heated and emotional conclusion to this series.
In the hours after Lars Eller's horrific injury, nearly every player...

Brandon Prust Calls Ottawa Coach “A Bug-Eyed Fat Walrus”
After Montreal’s Lars Eller was left unconscious and bleeding on the ice during game 1 of the Senators-Canadiens playoff series, Ottawa coach Paul MacLean offered his thoughts on Eric Gryba’s hit. Per The Globe And Mail:
(If I’m Eller), I’m really mad at player 61, whoever he is, because he passed me the puck in the middle of the rink when I wasn’t looking,” said...
Canadiens Forward Brandon Prust Calls Senators Coach Paul MacLean a ‘Bug-Eyed Fat Walrus’
OK, so the Canadiens-Senators series just got real good, and we’re only one game into things.
A little more than 12 hours after Ottawa’s Eric Gryba delivered a nasty-looking check to Montreal’s Lars Eller that left Eller in a pool of his own blood on the ice, things are continuing to heat up.
After Game 1, Ottawa coach Paul MacLean criticized Montreal defenseman Raphael Diaz...
Rangers Sign Micheal Haley (UPDATE: Prust Goes to MTL)
#NYR Rangers have signed former #Isles tough guy Micheal Haley to two-year deal
— Katie Strang (@KatieStrangESPN) July 1, 2012
I really like Haley's toughness and swagger, as did Isles fans, but this signing begs the question: How many tough guys do the Rangers need on the roster? Rupp, Bickel, Asham and now Haley are all signed to contracts.
GM Glen Sather needs...
Prust and Rangers appear to part ways
During Day Two of the draft yesterday, Brandon Prust tweeted that he appears to be parting ways with the Rangers organization, and will sign elsewhere on July 1:
I wish management wanted me back as much as the fans.. Thanks for the love everyone
Per Larry Brooks, the disagreement between Prust and Rangers brass is about $400,000 annually:
The 28-year-old winger, who is coming off...
What if Prust gets greedy?
Brandon Prust is another example of Glen Sather’s recent ability to pull off trade theft. A throw in that became a core player and a great example of the black and blue, never say die Rangers identity. To cap it off, his last contract signed with the Rangers, a two year 800k/year deal, was a bargain thus further cementing Prust as a quality addition to the Rangers club.
With that...
Options to replace Prust tonight
Whether you agree with the suspension or not, Brandon Prust will not be playing in tonight’s Game 4 against the Devils. With the opportunity to build a two game lead, the Rangers will be without one of their warriors and top penalty killers. It’s a blow, but not a blow that can’t be overcome. Unlike with Carl Hagelin, the Rangers have a few options readily available to replace...
