Hockeybird.com: And Then There Were 33

The Rangers have cut the roster down to 33 players at this point. Check out who made the first cut and who didn't at their official site.

Messier had a goal in last night's Blue/White scrimmage. Leedsy thinks that watching Messier play this season will be as exciting as seeing Haley Berry naked. For those of you who think that he has perhaps been sniffing glue, I suggest you read his latest Between Periods column as his case is a convincing one. If you are one of those who is upset about Messier returning for yet one more season, I highly recommend this article as it will ease your pain.

More from Newsday -- Bobby Holik likes Depeche Mode and sleeps with Jamie Lundmark. (Okay -- I just totally misrepresented that article so now you have to go read it to set the record straight. I like Holik and don't want to be starting any idle rumors.)

Finally, for more training camp coverage, Outside the Garden has multiple updates, including, but not limitted to, this one and this one. It's always good to get a different perspective. Indeed, yesterday Rodent took exception to my contention that Anson Carter was playing erotically in camp. In retrospect, I suspect he's correct that eratic would have been a more apt description.

BLASPHEMOUS rumors, rookie. You totally missed a great opportunity to perfectly tie it all together with a well-placed allusion. Next time you drive the car, remember to release the parking brake.

Didn't see that Leedsy comment before... clever I must say!

Bug... you gotta remember though that this is probably the only hockey board where the average IQ is above 100, so it's nice to see "clean" grammar haha. What can I say... everything counts in large amounts!
