    Duclair is a long way away. The Quebec league is an easy league to score in. I'm very happy he's having a great year there. However, Playing well in the AHL is a lot more challenging. Then you can get to the NHL. Somebody has to tell me why this organization is jerking around Miller. He was one of our best players last game. Honestly, it looks as if they are showcasing him. It would be a huge mistake to trade this kid I'd trade Cally before him because Cally will ask for money he doesn't deserve.

    Right, of course, there's the Q caveat of it being a joke to score, but I'm excited anyway. :) It's ridiculous that old man Asham is taking Miller's place. Pathetic. Totally an overreaction to Maloney and others calling us soft. We are soft, but Asham's ass should be retired, not taking young kids' jobs.

    Like I said. When Stuart hit Nash, Asham had every opportunity to pummel him and he did nothing.

    It's a valid point on Asham related to Nash. I have always liked Asham because he is tough can fight and actually has a pretty good shot. But if he is not going to protect his teammates he shouldnt be playing on the team

    IMO, that is why he got sent down. He was sent down soon after that game.

    Asham is a huge upgrade over Dominic the donkey, Miller should stay up, the AHL does nothing to improve him. Every other team in the NHL brings up their young prospects but the Rangers choose to let theirs languish in Hartford. I agree with you about Callahan dump, he's the Captain and the Rangers are playing like garbage. He doesn't deserve a raise and is playing this year out like he's looking to avoid an injury to cash in next year.

    Pyatt shouldn't be playing 88% of the time, either waive him or just sit his rear up in the cushy new suites. Miller while not scoring much is alot more involved.

    You mean not scoring at all. He has 6pts in 43gms while getting 10+ minutes a night. That's brutal. Even Pyatt had 11pts in 48gms last year.

    He is obviously not ready for the NHL, so he should be in Hartford getting 20mins a night rather than 8-10m on the 4th line, since he's not good enough to be on the 3rd line.

    there is not much Sather could call up to add some force. Calling Asham up
    just shows how little Sather plans ahead.
