Hey, I made the fourth picture. Awesome. I just want to thank everybody, all the NY Rangers, Coach John Tortorella, all the staff, and all the participants. We had a wonderful time and supporting a good cause. I hope this becomes a regular thing for many years to come. Once again thank you for all that you have done.

Comment on Tortorella’s welcome Blaze to the family by katherine cane

I have been a huge fan of the Rangers hockey team. My husband John Sterling has been a loyal fan for 40 years. He knows the ins and outs of hockey like no other. He introduced me to the Rangers. I have
watched each game for about 5 years and have laughed and cried depending on wins or losses. I used to think that Torts kept his players on a tight leash but I guess he knows what he is doing. I now have a strong belief that the Rangers is one of the best teams in the world. Mostly thanks to Torts the coach. I eagerly look forward to the new year. Stanley Cup almost for sure. Great knowing how much Torts loves dogs. He did a wonderful thing adopting those badly abused dogs, In this way this coach has endeared himself to me. Blaze is gorgeous.
Thanks Torts,
you are a very good man,
Katherine

So excited to see the fenced in area. In March you were talking about your plans Chris and I am so happy for the dogs that those plans have become a reality for them!!! What an improvement since my visit and it gives them the ability to run and play!

Nice to see someone taking care of these beautiful dogs. They get such a bad rap. Kudos to the Tortorella family for the love they give. We have a sweet, lovable Rottweiler named Waylon who rescued us four years ago. He has brought so much love and joy to our family. You’re right, there are no better pets to be found.

Anybody who has this kind of generosity of spirit and love for abandoned animals has both my sincerest thanks and admiration! Please help support them and for Pete’s sake… ADOPT, ADOPT, ADOPT.

I have never seen a family so dedicated to the safety and well being of any animal, large or small. It is no wonder that one of their rescue dogs was named Jack by the people adopting him out, as he hit the jack pot by being adopted by them. The family is truly a God send to animals.
