I lost my best friend yesterday 💔
Lily, thank you for nearly 16 amazing years. I really hope you loved your life with us as much as we did. You have always been so loved, and I have no idea what I'm going to do without you.
Keys to the game:
-do not get injured
-seriously, that is the only goal
-the players should sit in a giant circle at center ice all night, maybe put a movie on the big screen, the players can get drunk and have open mic night, I don't care.
Things the Rangers should not do tonight:
-Block shots
-Hit anyone
-Skate too hard
Things the Rangers should do tonight:
-Have a rock paper scissors tournament at center ice
-Watch the Canes/Devils games on gardenvision
-Have a tea party on the ice
-Take naps on the bench
What I learned on gambling twitter this week is that if you bet enough 3 cent arbs on inefficient markets at Bovada for $200 a pop, you too can make a million dollars
Empty net jokes aside, Strome was a great leader for a lot of young players during a rebuild on some really really bad Ranger teams. I hope nobody thinks its a good idea to boo him tonight.
I have officially joined
@UnderdogFantasy
Beyond excited to get to work with this team, and to be back with some of the smartest, hardest working people I've ever known.

wasn't much to it. It was very quick, obviously not friendly. DeAngelo was first in line, props to him on that. He clearly chatted with Strome, Kreider, etc for a few seconds. Georgiev was a quick move on
Knishy and I will pause our constant shit talking over the last 2 weeks for a minute to genuinely thank everyone for getting involved here. We have decided to donate to the Suicide Prevention Hotline.
We’ve been motivated by the unlikeliest source (
@HaydenGOAT
), and have decided to donate 5% of total pool handle to charity. We’ll take some extra entries to make up that delta. We’ll also screenshot the donation. If I finish in the money I’ll also donate a portion of my take.
"This is not an excuse at all because we're both playing on the same ice. But the ice wasn't the best. But that's gonna be the case at this time of year. They put everything behind us and they went to work"

so AV has now outlasted:
Ryan Callahan
Derick Brassard
Carl Hagelin
Rick Nash
JT Miller
Dan Girardi
Anton Stralman
Brian Boyle
Ryan McDonagh
I'm sure I'm missing some, just some key guys who played 3+ years here
Wonderful
In fairness of firing Gorton, he really did not do all that much. Panarin and Trouba were always coming to NY. Kakko and Lafreniere were pure lottery luck. He pretty much completely struck out on the Stepan and McDonagh/Miller trades. Shesterkin/Buchnevich were already drafted
Just walked by a guy in a "team portnoy" sweatshirt and I can't even imagine why any full grown adult would want to openly embarrass themselves like that. Would be less embarrassing to wear Jets stuff today imo
Yes, the entire democratic party got together and decided "you know what, we're going to rig this, but let every single republican win their elections except trump"
Have had a (no doubt losing)
@WilliamHill
account for 10+ years. Luckily managed to pick a few winners in the last month - account now restricted. Really hope the government gambling review addresses their shoddy practises of picking & choosing who they want to take bets from.
@lindetrain
-Wake up at 8am
-Piss
-Google "KBO scores" on phone
-Forget which games I bet
-Open slack to myself
-Cross Reference
-Do ballpark math
-Rinse
-Repeat
Imagine hearing about someone calling in a fake bomb threat to stop a football game and what you take from the story is 'he didn't place the bet with a regulated sportsbook'
there are many (delusional) Rangers fans that will say Quick, but this isn't even a conversation. You weren't starting Cam Talbot over Henrik, and you aren't starting Quick over Igor come playoff time
I'm sure I've lost some friends over the last 24 hours. I don't give a fuck. If any of this caused you to rethink wanting to be in my life, I don't want you in mine. I don't care who you are. Unfollow button is at the top, since you're probably too stupid to know.
I have no idea what noise I just made when Chicago scored but it's really a good thing I don't have a girlfriend because she probably would have heard that and immediately broken up with me
