of body armour & are prone to beating the shyt of of each other.

The Rangers' star is Jaromir Jagr. Their spark plug i would have to say is Sean Avery. The style of game we play... we rely a lot on the power play and on Lundqvist as of late. In my opinion the Rangers are very hesitant to just shoot the puck. On power plays, they pretty much pass the puck back and forth for about 3/4 of the time. I really can't say whether we're an offensive or defensive team, i think we're pretty balanced. I wouldn't put too much on my description of how the Rangers play, as it's just my opinion. Well that's about it.

Brendan Shanahan is the true locker leader, Tom Renney is the coach, you don't mess w/ Sean Avery, Marcel Hossa is a solid winger, Lundqvist is the man and Jagr is the best complete scorer on this team, Prucha , Callahan, Tuytin, and Girardi are solid blue chippers, you don't fight w/ Colten Orr

One could consider Lundqvist a star of the team too, a defensive star I suppose, with Jagr being the offensive star.

Dolan is the worst owner in sports.
