I'd like to see them trade for Ryan Graves. Graves should have never been let go but Gorton and AV wanted nothing but pussies on defense. He's a UFA in 2 years. I'd send them Jones and Georgiev for Graves. I see no way they don't do that. Smith blows. Kid is only 21 but he's not impressive. Jones could QB their PP on the left side with Hamilton on the right. Graves with Schneider would be nice.
Maybe Braun can play LD, and Nemeth goes to the stands. Playing 20 mpg and is a +3 on the terrible Flyers team, and he has some size. Could be a solid 3rd pair upgrade. Need a top 6 forward still...
You have no chance in hell of getting Graves for a 3rd rounder. He's a solid, physical, NHL defenseman that our ex dumb fuck GM gave away for nothing.
Good thing our ex GM also made about 10 great trades, picks, and signings to well offset any misses (which all GM's have).
Our ex GM for the most part was average to shit. He fucked up Lias. Fucked up on Kravtsov. He deserves no credit for the JD year as that draft was 100% all JD. The Henriksson pick blows. The Chytil pick is looking like shit now. I don't believe he drafted Shesterkin. Sather really was the one who made the Zibanejad deal. Not Gorton. The Lindbom pick was moronic. Panarin coming here had ZERO to do with Gorton. That was all JD. For the most part, Gorton was incompetent. You can clearly see that now thus why he got his dumbass fired. Trouba was probably the only big deal he made by himself. Sather was in complete control when Gorton first started here. Strome was a good move. You can't argue with that. However, when you fuck up the 7th overall, 9th overall in the draft and basically let your team get run over physically for 4 years, you are a piece of shit as a GM.
Laughable - good things he gets no credit. Bad things and he f'd up. Signed Panarin, stole Lindgren and a 1st for Nash, traded up for Schneider, drafted Miller, stole Ziban for Brass, stole Strome for Spooner, resigned Kreider, great trade for Trouba, traded for Fox. He was awful - oh wait none of the good stuff counts, forgot about that. So funny.
You're a dumb fuck. You suck off every coach and every GM this team has ever had. One cup in over 80 years. Shut the fuck up. You are a retard on hockey. Back on ignore you go where all dumb fucks like you go who keep pissing away your money on a team that hasn't shown they have a fucking clue. Again retard, Gorton had nothing to do with trading up for Schneider. That draft was all JD. Look at Gorton's history. All he does is draft euro pussies. If you think he made that Zibanejad deal and not Sather, you are dumb as dog shit. Get a clue dipshit. While Zibanejad is a euro, he plays north american style. Thus why Sather, not Gorton made that deal. You could see retard Gorton still couldn't understand the Buchnevich for Blais deal when he was on T.V. That's because he's a fucking moron.
Only reason I see for the Braun deal is that they will use him to rest Fox down the stretch. Otherwise, he's useless. Or to send to Hatford if they move Lundkvist.
I never sucked off Sather you polesmoker. I just said he wasn't as bad as some said. If you look at the fact the team won more playoff games than any other team for almost a decade it backs that up. Nice try fuck face. Go crawl back under your rock now.
That's pretty lame if Drury gets outbid by Vegas or Boston on Rakell when they have a 1st and an extra 2nd which neither of the others do.
Even now, cant help but give Glen a little stroke on some deals he has no evidence that he was even remotely involved in....must be related to him,
Yeah, never mind the fact that Glen brought in some of the worst...THE WORST...free agents in the clubs history. The best thing that ever happened to the Rangers under Glen Sather's watch was the institution of the salary cap. Kept him from spending like like a drunken idiot.
Is there really a need for the thread to get so disgusting? It's 2022 so stop dwelling in the past as it refers to this current team.
Ehhh. Honestly, if Kakko comes back, Rooney can go on the 4th line for this final year, I'm good. Vatrano was a steal. I'd rather keep our picks because I figure they will trade Kravtsov with Lundkvist in a deal for a new center or Chytil instead of Kravtsov and dump Strome after the season. No reason to piss away any picks until you feel your team is that close. Drury has done a ton right this year. He's done in one year what retard Gorton couldn't ever figure out. Shame JD made a moronic decision to support Gorton. JD got Panarin here and basically did the entire draft his first year. Gorton with his history of euro pussy love would have never traded up for Schneider or traded Lias for Cuylle.
The facts Gravy you retard is that while Sather started off like an imbecile, he basically put together the best stretch of playoff runs in the franchises history. In 1994 they took it all but basically they sucked most of the other years. The Rangers under Sather for a long time were contenders every year. If you are that much of a anti-Sather prick that you don't want to look at the facts then go fuck yourself. You sound like liberal trash. Ignoring the facts.
