Tonight from Madison Square Garden Kyle Okposo and the Islanders defeated the Rangers 3-2 in OT.  Here are some of my notes from the game:

KO played fing amazing!!  That move on Comeaus shorty was awsome!!!!  Also that was a sick no look pass on Nielsens goal!
Roloson played well!
Was anyone else surprised as anything that Bruno dropped the gloves with Avery?  Avery shoulda gotten his butt kicked later after he ran Roloson.
Wonder if anything will happen to the offical who was late
Sutton played pretty well
Hillen played very well!

Next game: Tomorrow @ 5 o’clock @ home vs Philly

First off hope everyone had a good day yesterday!

Now back to hockey!  Tonight from the Garden our New York Islanders will pay a visit to the Queen and the Rangers.  The game will be on at 7 o’clock on MSG + 2.  No Jesse J for this game he was sent back to the bridge and Tim Jackman will be taking his spot in the lineup.  Dwayne Roloson will be starting in net.  Here is the Rangers expected line as per Chris Botta:

Prospal - Dubinsky - Gaborik

Higgins - Anisimov - Callahan

Avery - Drury - Lisin

Brashear - Boyle - Kotalik

Del Zotto - Girardi

Staal - Rozsival

Redden - Gilroy

Lundqvist

Motto for tonights game shut down Gabby and shoot high on the queen.  9/10 times that will get you a win!!

God speed to those making the trip in!  Be loud and proud!!
