Rangers KnightCast

The Rangers continue to make almost all Rangers fans rip their hair out in frustration.  After a game that gave us all hope, they revert back to the extra passes, lack of shots, and a minimal attack in the 3rd period.  1 shot in 20 minutes while trailing by a goal is out of this world.  Gary Knight will touch on it all.  This episode is sponsored by "The Realistic Blue Shirts", THE BEST Rangers fan group on Facebook, run by fellow Rangers lunatic, Steven Waldman.  If you aren't a member of the group page, you need to head over and join. Trust me, I get hockey updates before some news outlets thanks to them! TIME TO COMPLAIN TO THE WORLD!

Gary Knight talks about the New York Rangers special teams performance against the Florida Panthers.  The emergence of a missing Zucc, and a smiling DJ who plays center having a 4 point night makes for a very happy team and even happier fan base.  Something else that has made the fans (most of them) happy, is the news that Filip Chytil will not be sent down to the AHL and allowed to continue to develop with the big boys.  The opportunity to take things to the next level are just within reach, hopefully bounces will start to go the teams way!   This episode is sponsored by "The Realistic Blue Shirts", THE BEST Rangers fan group on Facebook, run by fellow Rangers lunatic, Steven Waldman.  If you aren't a member of the group page, you need to head over and join.

Gary Knight discusses the two different teams that played earlier in the week versus the team that showed up tonight.  Quinn seems to be showing who he likes or trusts the least as scratch-fest continues.  Plus, the strategy looked very clear in the first period for the Rangers, but because the entire team seems to be having issues finishing with the puck in the net, it put a rookie goalie on a pedestal and made his confidence hit the Garden rafters.  Knight will also be arguing a couple of Quinn related items, which may be due to his lack of experience as an NHL coach, that could help curb some of the things that seem to be slowly getting away from where he wants and needs them to be.  Tonight's show is sponsored by "Realistic Blue Shirts", the absolute KING of the Facebook Ranger group pages.  It's hands down the internet version of the MSG lobby on Rangers game day.  Fresh content all day long, that is handled by our friend, Steve Waldman.  Head over and join that group, because it will change your timeline for the better instantly.  LETS GET THIS SHOW GOING!

Gary Knight shares his views on all the positive things the fans can take away from a great showing on back to back nights.  Rangers turn up the heat against the Avs with shot after shot, showing confidence and building momentum that was much needed.  Even with the Blueshirts dropping the 2nd game in the same amount of nights to the Capitals, it was a night where the young team, who was written off before the season even began, grabbed a point against the defending Stanley Cup champions.  Knight also talks Quinn's benching of players and how some roster moves have been made and someone is headed to the AHL.

Gary Knight breaks down some key moments in the Rangers 2-1 loss to the Oilers.  Also, Knight explains why a loss after their 1st win isn't the end of the world and can actually be viewed in a positive light.  Probably going to be a little more animated due to the teams Win - Loss record not matching how the team has played and some are very annoyed.  

Knight talks about how the young Rangers team matched up with one of the better teams in the NHL, again, and this time came away with the win.  Discussion about how Quinn isn't allowing line chemistry to form with the constant switching of the lines and why benching certain people makes ZERO sense when other players stay in the lineup when they should be shown the door, let alone the press box.  PLUS, Gary seems to have had his mind changed with where this team should be going this season after the 4 games that were played...Many people aren't going to agree and this fuels his views even more! 

With 3 games in the books, Gary Knight gets a little more animated about the Rangers play and how people really shouldn't sleep on this New York Rangers team.  Plus, the real test for this younger Rangers squad was on Sunday as the Rangers played back to backs with Hank sitting and a glimpse into life without The King came just 3 games into the season, and I really hope people saw how awful it can be! Any time a team scores 5 goals, they should get a win, but of course that's not how things happen in the world of a Rangers fan...

Gary Knight discusses the open night 3-2 loss at the Garden against a talented Nashville Preds, where the rookies on the Rangers played like veterans and some veterans played like rookies.  Hank ties a Rangers great with his start tonight and why pulling the goalie as a Rangers coach just won't work.  Come take a listen as Rangers KnightCast kicks off the season with the first show of the year!!
