Ryan Callahan's Awesome Effort Leads To Goal

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 11:38:52 -0400

Before the game the Rangers played against the Capitals that took place on October 8th 2009, Rangers coach John Tortorella called Ryan Callahan " A Pro" and The Mouth couldn�t agree more.

Before the Big man began this wonderful video blog for us he was not the biggest Callahan supporter, he found Ryan small and streaky. Two things that bugged the heck out of him.

It�s takes a big man to admit he�s wrong and the Mouth is certainly is that and he takes back every negative thing he ever uttered about Ryan.

The penalty killing shift that is shown in the first part of clip is one of sacrifice, tenacity, skill and endurance. It really is an amazing series of plays, which includes two separate spoilers of Alexander Ovechkin Power Play shots the last of which results with a super Ryan Callahan goal.

The goal had come when Callahan had nothing left in the tank but hockey heart and that's what got it done..

The second part of the clip takes place just two minutes after Ryan�s tally and gives kudos to the Rangers third line. The hustle of both Artem Anisimov and Enver Lisin in the offensive zone is textbook, combined with a great finish by Ales Kotalik.

Kotalik ended up scoring a sweet goal , that made four Capitals on the ice look absolutely foolish in it�s wake.

Sun, 04 Oct 2009 23:37:24 -0400

Donald Brashear had his first fight as a Ranger as he took on a familiar fight face to Ranger fans in the 6�4 227 lb Eric Godard. The tussle was initiated by Godard and The Big Rig was more then happy to oblige.

The opening of the fight is where Brashear showed his quickness, scoring early and stunning the Pittsburgh enforcer Godard. . Godard has always been a game fighter as we found out last year in Colton Orr�s �GigantOrr� series

It was great to see the Big Rig shake the cob webs off from the off season and get down and dirty and do extremely well in his first official regular season battle as a Blueshirt.

Sugden who was trying to impress the Cap coaches, and win a spot as their tough guy came at Brashear with all he had, which led it to be a long and brutish affair.

Anisimov's Filthy Goal

The Russian Rifleman Evegeny Grachev has been outstanding and equally so has been Rushkie Ranger centerman Artem Anisimov who showed off some awesome moves in the following video.

Artem Anisimov demonstrated an out of this world move against Bruin defender Jeff Penner and finished it off with an outstanding juke to beat Boston Goaltender Tim Thomas in a preseason game that took place on June 19th 2009.

The Fighting Irish: Colton Orr vs. Owen Nolan

Sun, 30 Aug 2009 11:33:41 -0400

The final installment of the Ranger Crisis only fight video compilation GigantORR is beamed onto your monitor as we close the books on former Ranger Colton Orr’s pugilistic exploits during the 2008-2009 campaign.

The final tussle shown in the series took place on March 24th, 2009 at MSG. Colton Orr engaged combat with a somewhat reluctant Owen Nolan of the Minnesota Wild, who eventually complies and does a good job of holding his own once things get down to brass tax.

The Mouth points out, that very rarely do you see a teams captain drop the mitts ever, so a tip of the proverbial cap has to go to Nolan who is no spring chicken at age 37 for taking on the much younger and more devastating Orr.

Colton takes care of business in this one but not without Nolan trying to even things up with a sneak attack while on his back. Nolan has always liked to take the odd advantage but Colton just laughed the futile attempt off.

The Mouth also treats us to some bonus footage as a crushing Marian Gaborik body check is shown that took place while Marian was a member of the Wild last year.

The recipient of the clean hit was the now retired ex-Ranger Markus Naslund. We surely don't need Gaborik to hit, we need him to score goals and more importantly Stay Healthy.

Ranger Crush Islanders Souls With Game Six Win

Sat, 08 Aug 2009 11:07:15 -0400

Before 1994 came along this was the moment all Ranger fans held near and dear to their hearts. The May 8th Game Six elimination of their hated rivals the New York Islanders in the Semi-Finals of the 1978-79 Stanley Cup Playoffs was a thing of beauty.

Not only did this win at MSG psychologically shatter Islander fans dreams at the time of ever succeeding in the playoffs but it also propelled the Rangers into their first Stanley Cup Finals since 1972.

The Mouth revs up the time machine and treats us to rare footage of the game that is given from the Islander point of view. The game is called by Islander announcers Tim Ryan and Stan Fischler. Both goals the Rangers needed to beat the Isles are shown during the 7 Minutes of rare footage.

You will also get a feel of how electric the Garden crowd was that evening, all in attendance were hoping that the Rangers would take care of business that night so as not to have a Game Seven take place at the hostile Nassau Coliseum.

The Ranger faithful would not be disappointed as the Rangers held on for the 2-1 victory and left in their wake the Islanders and their fans completely devastated as the had to see yet another underachieving playoff result whilst the Rangers headed to the Stanley Cup to play the Montreal Canadiens

Orr vs Stewart Straight Dave's Man Slammin' Max Out

Thu, 06 Aug 2009 01:37:20 -0400

Colton Orr finds himself in a bout with rookie Chris Stewart of the Avalanche or perhaps we should say it’s the other way around. Stewart a rookie who at 6’2 228lbs had his heart in the right place when he challenged GigantORR after Colton plastered his Av teammate the diminutive Marek Spatos with a thunderous hi.t

Stewart’s heart was willing but his arms and fists were unable to translate his passion into any vengeful violence what so ever. The Mouth let’s the Ranger Crisis viewers know that this can only lead to bad things when provoking a fight with a heavyweight of Colton Orr’s caliber.

The Big Mans verbose foreboding of course comes to fruition as Stewart is laid out by a Colt 45 right handed peacemaker. Orr then is sent to the dressing room and on his way get’s into a battle of expletives with NHL super weasel Darcy Tucker.

The Orr/Stewart fight is Episode #14 of The Ranger Crisis.com only feature GigantORR. A segment which shows in time line the pugilistic trials and tribulations of former Broadway Bruiser Colton Orr's fight card from the 2008-2009 season.

Fear and Loathing In Donald Brashear

Mon, 13 Jul 2009 00:13:01 -0400

On July 1st 2009 the Rangers signed probably the most loathed individual in this Ranger fans recent memory since probably when the Blue Shirts inked Bryan Trottier as a coach back in 2002. This happened when Glen Sather signed Donald Brashear one of the most unpredictable and feared enforcers in hockey to a two year 2.8 million dollar contract.

The only hitch about the acquisition is that Ranger fans are having a hard time forgiving “The Don” for his sucker job on Blair Betts during the playoffs last season , when Donald was a member of the Capitals.

The Mouth once again finds himself in the minority as he welcomes “The Big Rig” Donald Brashear with open “Huggy Bear” arms. Even at the somewhat geriatric age of 37 Brashear is a seasoned policeman who throws the body.

The latter of which his Ranger punching predecessor Colton Orr couldn’t do consistently on a nightly basis. But don’t worry about Colton he will be fine in Toronto and will quickly become a fan favorite.

The Mouth treats us to video of fight that took place on February 11th 2009 between Orr and Brashear in their six tussle in total as part of his eleventh installment of the Ranger Crisis.com only GigantORR Series.

Then the Big man gives the Ranger faithful a sneak peak of what kind of pugilistic prowess the reluctant Broadway Blue fan can look forward to when they finally come around to cheering for this Punch your lights out first, ask questions later intimidator.

Two Brashear fights are shown one against Jody Shelley of the Sharks and another which is of Brashear’s absolute emulsification of Riley “No Way” Cote

Marian Gaborik For Dummies Video

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 06:58:25 -0400

The Mouth is ecstatic at the signing of Marian Gaborik as this was the guy he wanted all along. The Rangers are getting a sniper in his prime that they so desperately need for what essentially is Scott Gomez escarole with a five year deal at 7.5 per season.

As always in Rangerland there is always a catch. Gaborik does come with some injury baggage, but the 27 year old Slovak has assured the Rangers he is 100% healthy. The Mouth is however reserving his jubilation about the Gabby inking and is doing his best to remain cautiously optimistic.

Only the future will tell what kind of nonsense concerning Gaborik's health will unfold when he actually hit’s the ice as a Blue Shirt. The again he may never get hurt again and be one of the Rangers all-time fan faves. So for now The Mouth is just Wild about Gabby.

The Big man of course has put together a semi-informational video about the Rangers biggest UFA signing so far of the off season.
