apparently there is a picture of mike rupp in a dress surfacing on facebook that isnt photoshopped

It's from the Devils Halloween party. His wife went as Avery. He was her bitch.



I think you guys aren't reading this right at all. I mean I just think - the truth is kind of sadder than your fiction so maybe I should just shut up - sort of like a left-handed defense of the guy... but when have I ever shown discretion...

Rupp just isn't that good. The Devils saved his freaking life getting rid of him. He's a relentless guy and that's what's appealing. But he had to get shut down so he'd fix his heart and take the time to heal. So he healed and got treated like a scrub on his return -- so Lou gave him another chance, not out of sentimentality but because he had something. But it was too late Rupp CHOSE the scrub route. Because it's easy. It's a cut and dry role (heehe I wrote roll - like croissant) on the path of least resistance. Clark is one of the few that find his spot as thug while all the while working to go beyond. Rupp can't do that. He doesn't understand "use your size" --- what can you do? "Channel into your temper" -- he just doesn't get what that really means.... but he can scrape by if he runs on the fumes of frustration. It's just a bummer... he DOESN"T think he could have been someone... he thinks this is what he does, all he can do... and he;s right now because he's getting old.

Soooo... it's not evil or cheap -- he just thinks he's doing what he has to, what he's paid to do.

You're giving him way too much credit. He's in this league hangin' by a thread... it's all he can do to keep his head above water.

Im still laughing at Rupp's all star comment calling someone "irrelevant" dude if anyones irrelevant its you

That rangers suck chant was def being chanted by the 16,999 devils fans there so clear through TV. Any other person watching in another market must of realized, wow they hate that team

"No supplemental discipine hearings from Devils-Rangers Game 4; No fines expected either" -TG

I'm ok with that but I would prefer that Rupp gets a fine to at least put him on notice so they can throw the book at him when ever he pulls that sh!t again.

Maybe Rupp's tactic is for PDB to dress Boulton/Janssen.

I hope not, after seeing how effective this "ignore their douchebaggery" concept worked against the flyers, and how well it's working thus far on the rangers, I want to keep the status quo. I have loved how well our 4th line has played anyway, I wouldn't want to tinker there.

i think we should just stay with these lines and continue the momentum from game 4

I believe he was supposed to be the hooker that had Avery's name in her "black book" of contacts. I think the woman's name was Kristin Davis.....two seconds of googling later: Sean Avery in hooker's black book

EDIT: Here's the pic.

I am going to drink a couple of beers and never read this topic again. Some things are better never seen.

Agreed. The Rags have 9 total goals this series and 6 came on the power play or an EN. We beat them if we stay out of the box.
