Sam Weinman at The Rangers Report notes...- Not surprisingly given Tom Renney’s admission last night that his team is “spent”, the coach gave the Rangers a day off today. The team certainly earned it in going the distance in these back-to-back wins. The only minor concern is if they lose momentum before they play next in Florida on Friday. But frankly, that’s a concern whether they practiced today or not.
- A lot of frustration with the officiating last night, not to mention my failure to address as much in my final post of evening. A couple of points on that: Yes, the officiating was suspect at best, particularly the goaltender interference call on Fred Sjostrom and the non-call on the punch from Andrew Peters on the Sabres bench to Colton Orr. But for one, the Rangers getting the short end of the calls is hardly a new phenomenon. And at that point in the evening, a win and a 13th consecutive point was more noteworthy. Naturally if the Rangers lose, then the officiating is a huge part of the story.
