This episode of Ranger Crisis starts off with a somber tone as The Mouth pays tribute a beloved New York Ranger Walt Poddubny. Walt died of a heart attack back on March 22, 2009. Poddubny was only 49 at the time of his passing.

Although he spent only Two years in the Big Apple his one ice persona was one of hustle and exuberance. A skilled play maker and goal scorer for the Blue Shirts, Walt immediately became a favorite of the Garden faithful. He banged home 40 goals in his first season and 38 in his second and final with the Broadway Blues.

The Mouth searched his archives to find some Poddubny footage and came up with a gem from New Years Eve 1986. Walter was instrumental in leading the Rangers to an Overtime victory against the rival Islanders that night by assisting on two of the three goals that line mate Thomas Sandstrom scored on, including the crucial overtime winner.

The Mouth recalls from his memory banks that Walt Poddubny was a big fan of the Three Stooges. In tribute the always demented Mouth treats us to one of the most violent scenes in Stooges History in honor of Walts fun loving spirit.
