Jed Ortmeyer

September 30, 2005

When the Rangers purged the team at the end of the 2003/04 season, I didn’t watch many games and preferred to watch the Senators playoff run and see some of my Bingo players in the NHL. As a result, I missed out on seeing some of the kids play. I’m making up for that lost time by watching them in preseason. I see many things I like, but none more than Jed Ortmeyer. This kid is the represents everything I love about hockey. He is the ultimate blue collar player and is all hustle. The Rangers have had other players like this in the last 7 seasons, but they always got traded for some veteran who would come to town, score a few goals, and coast to another early start to summer. This time around the Rangers are being smart (I hope) and Ortmeyer will be around for a long time.
