and since I still cry thinking about Nagano '98, I'll add to the blacklist Czech national team (and talking about Jagr: czech national team + Rangers = ...he's to me like kryptonite to Supes... ...sorry sanrio, don't shoot me! )







GO CZECH!!!!!

But, but...Jagr is a NEW YORK RANGER!! How can you not love him!!??

 

[renata75]

^ Pashen'ka doesn't love him (I was actually replying to his post) I do even tho my NHL team is Blackhawks

 

[Boomer]

^^ Pash has serious issues...Islanders fan, you know... If it wasn't for Christie Brinkleys' support of the isles, we'd have to put him away...

 

[renata75]

^ what about Brinkley's support??? Never heard

 

[renata75]

I found another big Czech team hockey fan and i believe she is Rangers fan as well

Well, Christie lives in the Hamptons on Eastern Long Island, which is somewhat near the slum, I mean beautiful suburban town of Uniondale where the Islanders play... So, due to the long drive to see a real hockey team play in NY City (Rangers), she and her son Jack are big fans of this glorified minor league team... (It is, btw, solely because of my life long lust- I mean admiration, for Christie, that we haven't ordered an air strike on the Nassau Coliseum long ago...)

As are most of the models in NY- and, needless to say, the players are very big fans of theirs' (especially since they are always at the Ranger games!!)

 

[Boomer]

And how absolutely beautiful is this, as well!! *Sigh*

You can find a very good answer reading the BOLD words above...

GO CZECH!!!!!

Ouch, that game...you guys played the ultradefensive hockey (*) your (in)famous for - Hasek blocked every single damn puck, and the defender Svoboda (means "freedom" in russian, what a sad irony for russian fans ) scored few seconds before the end, with a lucky slap from the blue line...oh my I still have nightmares if I think about that game!


(*) Btw, I always mock a bit czech hockey saying it's "skuCZnyj" (dunno if in czech it's the same as in russian, but it means "boring" in Tolstoj's language...)

^^ Pash has serious issues...Islanders fan, you know...

Ah-ehm! I'll be a gentleman and refuse to comment on that (my less gentleman inner self wanted to reply using this image, actually... )

All this nonsense (the only part I'll agree with is the lus...I mean, admiration for Christie ) requires a serious, balanced, rational reply, supported with some facts...



Here we go:

1) Stanley Cups:

Rangers: 4 in 82 years, 3 of which (1928, 1933 & 1940) won when the League consisted of - respectively - only 10, 9 and 8 teams...

ISLES: 4 cups in 35 years, and what's more, 4 cups in a row (1980 to 1983, when NHL was made by 22 teams)

(meaning: we have both won the same # of Cups, but 75% of your Cups practically don't count...)



2) Players Payroll before the lockout:

Rangers: $90m

ISLES: $43m

(meaning: we both haven't won a Cup in the last 10 years, but at least we spent less than the half to obtain that result...)



3) Babes-fans:

Rangers: seriously, I've never been a fan of KK (if Hana Soukupova was a Blueshirts' fan, now that would be painful...)

ISLES: Let's not forget Carol Alt!


(newsday.com)


...aaaand - even if I didn't even know how she was - even Hillary Duff is an Isles' fan (dates Mike Comrie - btw, if he could go out less and score a bit more, now that'd be better... )



4) This season:

4 matchups so far, we won 3...




Concluding:

Go Isles Go!

ISLES: Let's not forget Carol Alt!

Who was MARRIED to a Ranger!!!!
