Is it bad that I have entirely forgotten Tallinder was on the team?http://blogs.northje...cky_day_to_day/
In Lou-speak, that means Z's arm is hanging off and he thinks he's back in the Czech Republic.

Lou stating Zidlicky is "day to day". If he can be believed, that's good news. Hopefully will only miss 1 game, if any.
Last person that was "day-to-day" was Zajac and Tallinder, and you know where that ended up...this is NOT good news.

I thought Kovalchuk was also day-to-day. That one ended up not being so bad.

Tallinder was day to day for like 2 hours. It was revealed he wouldn't play that night, then they announced he was out for several weeks.
Zajac was also never really day to day. In addition, lots of guys who were announced as day to day actually were - like Ryan Carter, Anton Volchenkov, Alexei Ponikarovsky, etc.

Can't trust what Lou says. I know it is playoff time and no team speaks about injuries but Lou is the worst re: communications.

Well Tallinder is skating on his own...guess that's a plus
Anyway, I think I'd be more worried if the Zidlicky thing was lower body. That would be tougher to manage.

Actually the last person who was day to day is Kovy, that turned out fine. If it was anything significant they would just say Zidlicky is out for the series or is week to week.

I know I pretty much speak for myself here, but I am absolutely not a Zidlicky fan.
His offensive abilities have certainly helped us a good amount this playoff run, but I don't think his offensive talent has made up for his numerous mistakes defensively, or penalty wise.

imo they also wouldnt be in the 3rd round without the trade for zidlicky.
along with that trade you have to make the player they should have signed for a lower pairing is on the rangers defense. better hope that doesnt come back to haunt lamoriello.

I was against the trade to get him in a big way (look at my history), but I'm happy to say I'm eating crow. He has been great for us, and he is a very big reason why we are where we are. Defensemen usually go under the radar so its harder to see their contribution in the grand scheme of things, but he has been a difference maker.

stralman has been not good for the rangers in these playoffs. there's no haunting there at all.

Here's just one article saying otherwise.
My link
stralman has had a solid playoffs for the role hes asked to play behind 3 of their top horses. i wouldnt expect you agree with that so no surprise there.

of course not, even though you're clearly a new poster and we're just getting to know each other.
stralman has been a back pairing defenseman given protected ice time and he's gotten some shots through. he's getting 17 minutes of ice time a game in the playoffs even though the rangers have played several overtime games. he is not a 'pivotal' player - he's BEEN pivotal because the rangers can't score worth a goddamn and stralman has been lucky enough to score 3 times. but tortorella doesn't trust him in key situations at all.
zidlicky has led the devils in ice time, quarterbacked the power play, hasn't been protected at all, and has done real well for himself. the devils could've used stralman in the beginning of the season, but there's no way stralman could do what zidlicky is doing now.

lmao...be gentle
"The $297,297 Kovalchuk missed today is money he will never, ever get back. And the more cheques he misses, the better the deal is going to have to be for the players to justify him sitting out. And unlike the owners, the players can direct their leadership to get a deal done regardless of how disadvantageous it is to them."

i dont need to know you very well your arrogant attack and attitude on me the other evening filled me in quite nicely.
i never said he was a pivotal player and never compared him to zidlicky. i said stralman would have made a nice back pairing 7th defenseman for the devils and adding zidlicky to the mix would have been enough NHL caliber depth. stralman has fit in nicely as a ranger this postseason anyone who covers or watches the rangers sees that but you. he doesnt need to be pivotal on a d corps that has 3 horses on it. 3 horses that tortorella rides to death as he does with top players.
