I found this Rangers-Islander game from 1978, a very young Sam Rosen was a substitute for Rangers regular announcer Jim Gordon

you could hear the voice but tell he hadn't developed his style yet

POTVIN SUCKS!!!!!!!!!

There was a red jersey hanging in Blake Wheeler’s locker today, and #NYR coach Peter Laviolette says No. 17 skated on his own beforehand.

Interesting. IF he somehow comes back some time in the playoffs, it would really make these line decisions difficult

I don’t think so. I don’t think Roslovic has done enough to show he’s worthy of being on the top line. Chytil gets a shot there and Roslovic becomes an extra.

if I'm choosing between a 100% healthy Chytil and Roslovic I'm choosing Chytil every time, it's not even a debate

Man I hope so! Still feel he's one hit away from Puddin' Head.
Ast TPC said, if that fall at practice was planned then it's genius.

I agree with you. He's been less than stellar. Is this the lineup you see if everyone is fully healthy?

Kreider- Zib- Chytil
Laf-Tro-Bread
Cuylle-Wennberg-Kakko
Rempe-Goodrow-Vesey


Where does Wheeler fit? Would Lavy sit Rempe for Wheeler? Someone else? Does Wheeler sit?

I know most (mine included) opinions think Wheeler probably shouldnt get immediately reinserted. Im just not sure thats how the coaching staff/management sees it. I guess time will tell

POTVIN SUCKS!!!!!!!!!

I feel like every time I'm at a game, the Potvin sucks chant happens, I overhear somebody say why do they do that? And somebody answers and then they explain it wrong

Outside of an injury, I don’t think Wheeler plays. I also think Roslovic bc of his speed gets the call before Wheeler does. Id Wheeler even healthy yet? Having depth at this time of the season is a good problem to have.

F*cking Dylan McIlrath is in their TOP 4 D!

Couldn’t agree me. Do you guys realize if Chytil is good to go how monumental this could be?!! Listen the Rangers aren’t going to put him out there if he isn’t ready but it’s trending in the direction he’s in the lineup on Sunday. We are adding an absolute stud to this lineup. I understand the notion that it might take him some time to get acclimated and comfortable coming back from a concussion but he’s gotta come back at some point. If he’s ready then why not now? Let’s Roll!

WOW, Sam actually doing play by play. Instead of telling us the family history of every opposing player and coach

I find it hard to believe if they had any concerns he’d be practicing full go. He must be fine. And yes it would be a huge boost to our chances

I think his first game would be game 1 next series. Unless this series goes to poop and they need him earlier.

Let's be a little careful now. Chytil is not Mark Stone, Nikita Kucherov, or Gabriel Landeskog all of the sudden. Even if the excitement is high because he's back from the grave...

Even when he's fully healthy, he's not a gamebreaker/series changer like those guys. Would he be extremely helpful because every ounce of an edge matters? Of course.
