I prefer "beat you wife Potvin,beat your wife" Never was a fan of "potvin sucks" At least the NYR in house entertainment stopped playing the tune years ago, fans just keeping it up fpr some reason. Unlike the Masoleum that keeps playing the tune so the fans can chime in..ie: chicken dance, if your happy and the like. Same at Prudential center. To each his own I guess.

chicken dance is no longer played. The Potvin sucks chant just makes no sense the guy was a legend. Probably the best NY defenseman of all time. In 2014 Rangers should think of a new chant....

Learn the origin of the chant, then maybe you will understand why... And as far as the best defensemen of all time in NY, he wore #2 for the NYR !!! LEETCH

We Vancouver fans chanted "Potvin Sucks" for the "other" Potvin when he played for Vancouver. But of course you remember Felix when he played for you.

Dont mess with the Cat!!

Sad part is... Felix was one of the better goaltenders we have had in the last 20 years.

I've read the isles have made an offer to Dan Boyle. I've also read that Dan Boyle has yet to say if he's going to entertain that deal. Thats not good news for isles fans.

If he was against it... he would have already said no.

He must seriously be thinking about it... maybe talking to a few players, his family, etc...any sighting on the Island?

Good money on the table to be a top powerplay guy.

If you know the true origin of that chant than youre old enough to have seen potvin play which means you know he was MUCH Bette than leetch. Dont get me wrong leetch was an incredible defenseman in his own right and a great guy. Even as an islander fan I was a fan of leetch but there's no comparison btn the two. Potvin was far superior.

Constantly complaining about the Potvin Sucks chant is almost as ridiculous as the chant itself.

He should be wearing them on his middle finger.

I heard the chant at 17:49 of the 1st period of Game 3 @ MSG.

They do the chant at Knicks games. I heard it at the Circus once too. They're never gonna let that go until the guy who whistles dies.
