It would have been nice to get him in the draft, but I also like what the Isles did by getting Bailey as well as the others in the second round (our prospect list really needed that shot in the arm at the time). As far as Pascal's suspension, we shouldn't kid ourselves. He jumped the boards to go after Diane Phaneuf. I applaud him for sticking up for his teammate but he knew that he would probably get a suspension for that. On some occasions, coaches also get suspended when a player jumps out onto the ice to fight. So maybe we got a little lucky in that regard. Hey CB, nice article in Farmhouse about Filatov.

He basically put a protective barrier around every dirty player in the NHL. Another player crosses that barrier after a questionable hit, and that player gets 10 games while the dirty player walks away unscathed. Un-freakin-believable!!!!

I think the us against the world attitude could unite this team. Garth knows he has to pick up someone who can actually deliver a beating when necessary. It is almost worse to stickup up for a teammate only to receive a pummeling of your own, adds insult to injury. Garth is taking the Ned Braden approach to hockey , let's bring in Reg Dunlop- stop all the whining , this has to be handled by whoever takes the ice next time with fanooch.

Glen Beck Rocks! Is Colon Campbell still on the Ranger$ playroll? He just loves to hosed the Isles. Campbell gives Chris Pronger a pass for doing a skate chop and gives Chris Simon a long vacation on top of Ranger$ Ryan Hollweg's into-the-boards-hit-from-behind-concussion-pounder! Hollweg didn't even miss too many 5th line shifts. Boo Hiss! ps: Why is ex-Ranger$ 4th liner Kris King running the NHL video booth? Was Tie Dumi too busy in Toronto getting a peticure? Woof! Woof! Throw a Dog a Bone! Hey Strummer’s Army (#62) I’m all for Glen Beck as the NHL’s Discipline Czar! Glen Beck Rocks!

And you already know the player will get an unjust suspension anyway, so go for it.

This preocupation with the bad incident a few days ago is like complaining that your coffee was served cold at your favorite restaurant, when tomorrow they may be out of business!

I understand that there is passion. I understand that there is a feeling that the team is getting screwed regularly. Do not lose focus on the bigger picture here. Unless there is continued support for the Lighthouse project we won't have a (local) team to root for. Get your butts down to Hofstra today to support the cause.
