Gaborik to Make Sure this Never Happens Again

In a feature on Marian Gaborik, Jim Cerny at newyorkrangers.com has this quote from the Rangers sniper...

“It’s disappointing to be out and not playing right now,” said Gaborik, who has 22 points in 29 career post-season matches. “Now I want to have a good summer in terms of working out and get even better and make sure this doesn’t happen again.”

...i've seen some comments on the blog lately about Gaborik's lack of emotion and not stepping up in big games. To me that's completely unfair. The guy was a one-man offensive force all season, played through injury and scored the game winner in the Philly game at MSG to extend the Rangers chances of getting into the playoffs. What else do you want? Would you rather he not be on the team?

Couldn't agree more.

Also agree. Torts comment in his exit interview about Gaborik was to call his play in the final game "despicable." The man kept us afloat for most of the year.
Torts, you're despicable.

As usual Torts, go to hell.

Also, props to me for calling out Brashear and Torts before the season even began.

I also agree. Just bc Gabby doesn't outwardly celebrate every goal like it was his first doesn't mean he doesn't give a shit.

I Love Gabby...Torts, eh, not so much.

I have nothing bad to say about Gabby. He's the man.
