Non-Olympians talk Break

Jim Cerny at Newyorkrangers.com caught up with numerous Rangers after yesterday's practice to discuss what they did during the Olympic break....

“It was really great for me and for my family,” said Prospal, a former member of the Tampa Bay Lightning who still maintains a home in Tampa. “We went to Busch Gardens, got some sun, visited restaurants that we haven’t been to in a while. It was really great.”

Cerny adds that Enver Lisin and Artem Anisimov headed to warm locales, while Michael Del Zotto and Eric Christensen headed home.

On watching the Olympics Prospal added...

“I’ve tried to see almost all of the games,” said Prospal, a native of the Czech Republic who represented his country in the 2006 Winter Games. “It’s hard watching from far away, but the Czechs better play better than they did (Tuesday) night.”

...it must be real nice for those guys to get an extended break to prepare themselves for the stretch run.
