1. Athletic Pal Arthur Staple writes that the only Rangers “Untouchables” are Igor Shesterkin, Adam Fox and Breadman Panarin.<\/p>\n

2. The Maven gladly would make any one of that trio “Touchable..”<\/p>\n

3. Shesterkin has so far displayed no inclination to play up to his ridiculously bloated contract.\u00a0 I’d take low-cost-in-the-Final Stu Skinner over Iggy any day.<\/p>\n

4. Blueshirt fans have seen up close and personal how Fox’s game has deteriorated. But some sleepy GMs may not and a crafty return could be available.<\/p>\n

5. Panarin has passed his peak but he’ll attract plenty from a GM who can’t spell backchecking.<\/p>\n

6. Then again, some NHLers never peak. Exhibit A=Corey Perry; Exhibit B=Brad Marchand.<\/p>\n

7. Back to the Toronto Sun’s Steve Simmons who wonders why the successful Knicks fire their coach and Non-Playoff Drury still has a job. “Do lousy,” writes Simmons, “and get an extension.”<\/p>\n

8. With the stirring Cup Final Round tied at one win apiece, there’s an easy way to figure the winner of Game Three. FLIP A COIN!<\/p>\n

9. One way for the Oilers to keep Connor McDavid in Edmonton would be to put him on the ballot for Canadian Prime Minister.<\/p>\n

10. The only Ranger whose play is evenly remotely \u2013 I said “remotely” \u2013 like Brad Marchand’s is Will Cuylle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Walter Tychnowicz-Imagn Images 1.
