Some territorial dominance for a change, huh?
But at 1-1, not equitable results.
Some random thoughts between periods:
The Rangers could have had two or three goals instead of one on their 14 shots.
Shanahan rang the iron soon after Straka's goal at 10:06.
Jagr's skating well tonight, so the Jagr-Nylander-Straka line is starting to resemble last season.
The first power play---which produced five shots---was among the best two minutes of the season.
The shot that beat Lundqvist was a deflection off Aaron Ward's stick.
When we saw Ozolinsh playing with Kasparaitis in practice, we gulped.
But Ozo has been focused so far, and made all the right decisions.
Anybody miss Karel Rachunek?
Don't get too giddy yet: These are the Coyotes.
The signs are encouraging, however.
The Great One met with the NY media here earlier today. His musings on coaching as he begins his second season, and my musings on Wayne's World and the Coyotes, are in Sunday's editions along with some Rangers notes, as well as an NHL Insider column. Feel free to browse and respond to Blue Notes.

Thanks Steve. You have been doing a great job so far. I look forward to continue reading your insights all year.
good luck with this blog.what are you going to say when the rangers are 12-46.wait till next year
Hi Steve,
I was rewarded with a nice Rangers win for staying up late last night. Jagr's line seems to be heating up, lets hope it continues. Cullen finally provided the secondary scoring we have been looking from him. Hey Steve, have you heard any news on what will happen with the glut of Rangers defensemen? I heard there may be a trade to alleviate the situation by the end of this West Coast trip. Any inside knowledge? I know that Gretzky and Sather have a good relationship and now that the game is over maybe they can start working on a deal. I know the Yotes want to get rid of Nock Boynton and his contract, I would love to have him on the Blueshirts.
Anyway, great blog here Steve. I enjoy reading your insights on the blog as well as in Newsday.
