Go ask Langevin who's team swept Gretzky, Messier in a final while Leetch crawled to a seven game win against a 35-34 Canucks team. One Langevin's Islanders swept handily. Best thing of all was all three city papers put the Giants in the primary spots on the backpage and barely threw Leetch a crumb. Almost pity how sad Ranger tradition is compared to a true dynasty like the Isles. You keep wearing the Rag jersey when writing about hockey Rick, outside of the media and the Dolan spin the real truth is if the Rags folded tomorrow no one notice. Giants, pitchers and catchers. Rags are below NASCAR in Manhattan, remember last year's playoff ratings? Have a nice day.

35-34 Canucks team.

One Langevin’s Islanders swept handily.

Best thing of all was all three city papers put the Giants in the primary spots on the backpage and barely threw Leetch a crumb.

Almost pity how sad Ranger tradition is compared to a true dynasty like the Isles.

Giants, pitchers and catchers.

Rags are below NASCAR in Manhattan, remember last year’s playoff ratings?

Have a nice day.

Are you just a bit jealous, still? Hi Rag,
Yeah, Dave Langevin was better than Leetch, right?
Are you just a bit jealous, still?

Selfish team cancer still whining because he lost all those years. How much did Dolan pay all of them to show up for that sham ceremony. You have no tradition at all. As an Islander fan I laugh because we could retire another ten players who are far more deserving than Leetch who was worthless after 97 unless he was trashing hotel rooms with Richter in Nagano or demanding 9m a year to not play defense so he could get his numbers. Just fold your team and that joke tradition from Edmonton. Brian Leetch, the only player in league history who got hurt falling on ice on a street because he was drunk in 93. Doug Messier had to demand at least five million for the appearance and a million for the phoney tears. Carpinello should get his nose out of Leetch’s backside.

It's funny how they're getting these tags. Messier was the greatest Ranger ever. Now I guess he's the most important Ranger ever. Leetch is the greatest Ranger ever, so designated by Messier himself tonight. And Adam Graves is the most popular, or beloved, Ranger ever. And that's why his number is going up there next season. Thanks gang.

I'm sure you miss many things about the Rangers beat, but watching Brian play is something we all miss. I too hate the way his trade was handled, but at the same time I try not to let that cloud my memory of what an absolute joy it was to watch him play and have him as ours all those years. The greatest Ranger ever, no doubt! Nice work, Carp. I’m sure you miss many things about the Rangers beat, but watching Brian play is something we all miss.

I always enjoyed your insights on the team, so glad to have you on this one. Hearing Brian acknowledge his bitterness about Slats is somehow gratifying. I think we were all of the same mindset, and still harbor a grudge for Glen denying Brian the chance to hang up his skates as a Ranger. True to form, Leetchie always took it in stride, but he deserved much, much better. Hopefully seeing his number ho up tonight will give him a tangible reminder of what he means to the team, the fans, and the game itself.
