Rangers Continue to Own the Devils

The Rangers defeated the Devils by the score of 4 - 1 tonight.

First, R.I.P. Alexei Cherepanov. So tragic to see such a great player and an astounding talent's life cut short. You will forever be remembered. Once a Ranger, AlWAYS a Ranger.

Ten things on the game:

1. The Ranger fans serenated the Devils with a "You can't beat us chant." You have to have confidence in the Rangers chances against the Devils.
2. I was reading HFboards and I think one Devils' fan's post stuck out the most:
"Yeah, it's only the third game of the season...but we still have the same issues. We can't beat the Rangers....and we can't score goals....and Marty sucks against the Rangers. I want to see Weekes against them the next time we face them." Couldn't say it any better.
3. I said in my last post that Dubinsky is an emerging star. Well I lied ... he has arrived. And nice to see the unselfishness of Dubinsky to give Callahan a goal.
4. Echoing what the Devils' fan said: Marty sucks, that first goal was terrible and it set the tone for the rest of the game.
5. Voros is a beast and the new Avery infront of Brodeur. By the way, he leads the league in goals.
6. Redden is playing great. He is really helping out the power play.
7. Drury drop the damn gloves, the Devils' terrible captain was punching you in your face and you just let him?
8. Third line played well, but still no goals, minus Callahan's empty netter.
9. Zherdev must have a man crush on Dubinsky because passing back to him on that 2 on 1 was completely unnecessary. Zherdev had a shot and he's got to take it.
10. What was Renney doing on the 5 - 3? Why would he mix up lines and not put the Playstation Line out there. They looked terrible.
