Yea who was worse? Tukka Rask or Ryan Dempster. They both stunk their respective joints out.
Dempster at Fenway Park and Rask at Madison Square Garden.

Dempster has had control problems the last couple of games which has to be a concern.
Rask was shaky. Elite goalies don't give up 2 goal leads. They just don't!

It was all over ... the Boston Bruins had just scored their second goal of the night to take a 2-0 second period lead. The New York Rangers were dead. There was no life on the ice, no life on their bench, no life in their crowd at MSG. But then it happened. A Ranger rush up the ice, broken up by a back checking Bruin, the puck slides off the Rangers' stick harmlessly toward the Bruins goal.. But as Tuukka Rask goes to play the puck he loses his balance, falls on his wallet, and then watches as the puck slides slowly by to his right. He reaches out to play it with his stick, but HE MISSES IT! In the net ... Goal Rangers ... 2-1 game, and the rest is ugly history! Rangers win 4-3 in overtime!
That goal was almost funny at the time. Actually the combined screw up by Rask and Zedeno Chara on the second NYR goal was just as ugly and not nearly as funny. Hey, the bottom line is the B's still lead the series three games to one and they have firm control of the home ice advantage. But if the Rangers ever did somehow come back to win this thing that fall by Rask would go down as one of the most memorable gaffs in Stanley Cup history! Do you think Tuukka wants this thing to end ASAP? Uh, yup.

I Disagree!

As people know former Castleton head football coach Rich Alercio was hired as the new varsity football coach and assistant athletic director at St. Johnsbury Academy last week.

There are a few things in Coach Alercio’s past that have been well documented.

Alercio had an NCAAA violation at Castleton and also had an altercation with an umpire at a little league game last year.

Draw your own conclusions, but the Caledonian Record in its editorial yesterday said that the naming of Alercio was a “bad hire”.

I couldn’t disagree more. Rich Alercio was born to coach and St. Johnsbury made a “great hire.”

The Boston Bruins are closing in on a trip the Stanley Cup Eastern Conference finals. Their win over the Rangers last night was just a solid road game. The Bruins are not a big time scoring team, but the Rangers are worse. Henrik Lundquist was solid for the NYR but his teammates couldn't generate any offense for him. Based on what we have seen don't look for anything to change, and if it doesn't this series is going to be over in a hurry.

Meanwhile the Red Sox were doing their best Rangers imitation ... they got a good pitching effort out of Felix Dubront last night but they couldn't get him any runs. I hope I'm wrong but I'm starting to think that inconsistency on offense with this team is going to drive us nuts all season.
