    They got Weise and Fleischman... Gotta give Bowman a round of applause . That guy knows how to build championship teams... And fit guys under the cap... Here everybody whines at the thought of the Rangers giving up the precious prospects

    Which is another reason I say GO GET STAAL. Put Nash on LTIR and get him 100% for the playoffs. And add a 4th line PK guy as well.

    Half a**ing makes zero sense for this team. Either go all in or sell off. Makes no sense to go sort of in and not really make a huge push.

    Then you must resign Staal this summer. And you'll move forward with a good core of guys locked up for a long while.

    How the hell are they going to resign Staal unless they unload Nash? but then you pretty much get the same player past his prime.

    Because it hasn't worked out for us you clowns. This team didn't tank seasons to get Kane, Seabrook and Toews. They can't piss away draft picks and expect to maintain a high level of play. You have seen the effects of that this year. We are lucky that Clarke pulled picks out of his ass like Duclair, Buchnevich, Shesterkin, Kovacs, Huska, Saarela and Graves. However, you can't go and throw them away plus more picks. You'll destroy your future. This team has older players that are playing old. Not like Kane who has 84 f'n points. You keep comparing this team to Chicago. Get a clue. This team has never had a dominant scoring line. They need depth and scoring from FOUR LINES to contend. This team should be a major seller with getting back players that they can reload with going forward. Not a buyer. You stubborn mules continue to ignore the fact that the Hawks had 2 major selling, rebuilds during this run. In other words, they understood that they had to break the team down and reload. They freakin won. This organization can't grasp that along with some posters here. As I said before. My offer to Carolina would be this. Basically nothing. If you want to unload a 31 year old player who is out the door already, makes 8+ million and has 31 points, good luck.

    I stick by what I've said all along. One, trade Yandle. If what moron Brooks said is true and Dallas is all over him, that is a perfect place to trade him to because Dallas has a farm that is freakin stocked. Two, cut, trade or release that useless tool Glass. Fix your coaches stupidity since he's too dumb to do it. Three, Tell Boyle to drop his NTC or he'll be in the minors the rest of the year. Then either send him to the minors or find a team who will give you a 3rd or 4th for him. Clarke has done wonders with those picks. Stick with McIlrath the rest of the season. Bring up Skjei for the rest of the season for Yandle. Four, I would see what team that won't make the playoffs might trade for Nash and move him now. Montreal very well might be a team that would have interest in him. They can't score in the regular season. I think if you eat one more year of Markov, get back Eller in the deal and a 2016 and 2017 second, it's a win. Eller could be used on a third line. He also would make the 4th line light years better and instantly give you a line that can score once in a while. Let Markov spell Skjei, McDonagh and Staal this season and next. Then he's off the books after next year. You have to eat one year of Markov to make the money work. However, I would take the 2 second round picks and Eller for Nash. Now in a perfect world, Montreal dumps Markov, you take back Eller and 2 second's for Nash and make a run at Stamkos next year.

    So to sum up. You have two big wings who are dumb, lazy and inconsistent in Kreider and Hayes. You have a ton of money tied up in a defense that can't even clear the crease. You have a PK unit that sucks. A PP unit that sucks. A fourth line that basically never scores because Tanner "I suck ass and only play because my coach is a moron" Glass is on it. Yet, people here want to go for it. Gimme a fucking break.

    They're going to have over 100 points again this season. Imagine if everything and everybody didn't suck? They would have a 140 point season.

    The Hawks never rebuilt they had to trade guys to stay under the cap

    The Rangers have flaws some significant but they are probably the 2nd best team in the East come playoff time and the best team the Caps have a horrible playoff history.

    I don't like where the Rangers are w Yandle but they aren't doing a mini rebuild

    The Hawks rebuilt. Twice. They traded a bunch of guys to rebuild their team because of the cap. They basically tore it down other than their core 5. They completely dismantled their team after their first cup and they took a hit for it the next year. That's what this dumbass organization should have done. Instead, they chose to give out moronic NTC's to Staal and Girardi. Problem was that the Rangers thought they had core guys and they weren't. The only core players on the Rangers were Hank and McDonagh. You could make a case for Brassard and Stepan though I'm not sold on Stepan. I wasn't sold on Brassard either as I didn't like his contract but he's lived up to it.

    Yeah but when your core is Toews Kane Seabrook Keith and Hossa it's never a rebuild. They just plug parts in to that core because those are all exceptional playoff guys too

    I agree but that is why we can't deal picks and young players for rentals. We need a 4 line depth with tons of depth that can wear teams down in the playoffs. That is why Glass has to be released or dealt. He ruins an entire line. It's also why they can't lose Yandle for nothing. IMO, there will be a bidding war for Yandle. Very interesting they play Dallas today. I would not be surprised if the GM of Dallas does not let Gorton leave the building without getting Yandle. IMO, Dallas will overpay.

    Rousell, Ritchie, and a high pick for Yandle would be great. Rousell is a good hard nosed player

    I am all for trading Yandle. Just make sure you get a good return and not some mid level schmuck prospect and 6 round draft choice.

    I heard AV was spotted on his knees in front of Glass after the game he scored a goal in.

    If Gorton just trades Glass I might consider the deadline a decent win.
