Open Game Thread: Traverse City Tournament Game One
This marks the first day of hockey season ladies and gentlemen. Today the Rangers prospects will take on the St. Louis Blues prospects at 7:00 PM on MSG.
Fans outside the Rangers' broadcast territory can watch the MSG broadcast on the NHL Network. The last time the Rangers faced the Blues was in 2009, the Rangers defeated them to take third place.
Tonight's MSG Network broadcast of the Traverse City game will mark a first for the network in terms of live coverage of the tournament and will feature many new elements, including the integration of Twitter to allow fans to submit questions for both the broadcasters and interview guests.
The next Rangers game will be Saturday, September 11 against the Dallas Stars, which will air at 6:00 PM.
This will be used as your open thread for the game. We look forward to seeing everyone once again in the open thread. Enjoy the game and let's go Rangers!

Hello Ryan Bourque
What a move and what a finish

Honestly...
The shot probably should of been stopped. I guess that’s why this is a prospect tourney.

Could Bourque be another Callahan?
Very premature, but he kind of looks like him on the ice.

Parlett looking decent.
Nice puck movement cross ice on Hagelin’s goal.

Opinions?
Think Haeglin has a shot for the roster? I think Erixon makes the cut…but I think Haeglin could use some more seasoning.
At this point with the way the team is structured I think Erixon just has to not ‘lose’ his spot, whereas Hagelin has to earn his over some of the other forwards.

Haeglin just looks a bit raw. Good skater, great shot but i dont think hes there quite yet.

JT Miller a bit quiet in the 2nd period.
Still haven’t decided if he’s a bust yet. Probably have my vote cast by midway thru the 3rd.
by Gabby the Gutless Sniper on Sep 10, 2011 8:49 PM EDT via mobile reply actions
Theres no way you can decide if someone is a bust in this tournament. youre judging wayyyy to early
by Bobby Golden on Sep 10, 2011 8:50 PM EDT up reply actions
You’re funny. And by funny, I mean not funny, but something else but I will refrain from delving further. You’re passing judgement and weighing if someone is a bust after the first prospect game? Yeah, better wait until midway thru the 3rd, that’s totally more appropriate.
How about you wait until after the tournament… and after 2-3 years of seasoning. These aren’t #1 overall picks from the draft, they need to mature.
It’s amazing in this day and age how people aren’t more aware of blatant sarcasm.

Ohhhh sarcasm.. I get sarcasm…
I would agree except that earlier he was finding Thomas/Hagelin invisibility troubling so who knows…
All week I’ve been joking that we’ll determine the future of these guys after 5 minutes.

Question/Observations
Wasn’t St. Louis supposed to be our biggest competition?
I like that McIlrath didn’t get sucked into a fight.
If Yogan could finish this game would have been a total blowout.
Erixon looks so calm and relaxed back there. Like it’s just another day at the office.
Ceresnak is SLOW.
Had to leave for work what was the final?
