Update

I have some free time and I feel like I should post a few important notes.

Last week Henrik Lundqvist was on Boomer and Carton's radio show. You can listen to the HILARIOUS interview Here!!
A few highlights from the show include:
Lundqvist is guaranteeing the Rangers make the playoffs.
Lundqvist is not listening to any offers from Russia because he "Loves his life."(How can you not, making 6 mil a year)
The Rangers "like" Tortorella. (What you can take from that is beyond me. Of course you can't say you don't like your coach.)

Camp is already underway. The first two days included grueling condition tests, followed by a few days of scrimmages. Basically, the line of Gaborik/Stepan/Frolov has been a huge success. The coach tried mixing it up on the 2nd day of scrimmages by replacing Christensen with Stepan. Result... not so good, they were held scoreless. Avery has also impressed with a few goals in two days. Staal struggled with the conditioning test (use any excuse you want), but has been satisfactory in the scrimmages. Prospal passed the coaches conditioning test with flying colors, and seems to be doing extremely well during the scrimmages.



Finally, Chris Drury broke his finger while blocking a shot today and is supposedly out for 4 weeks. Full article Here!!
