I’ve seen enough of this pussy. He’s got no balls to pull the season changing deal. Gorton sucked. This assclown is just as bad.
So they’re going to fire this loser then bring in another loser big name gm. Rinse and repeat. I have no faith in this organization to hire people who can actually build a Stanley cup winning team.
Too much dead weight right now. Goodrow, Wheeler, Kakko to a degree, even Miller has been a liability when it looked like he was going to take the next step.
Drury still sitting quietly on his ass waiting for the TDL to make a trade for some old scrub. Horrible gm.
To show you how much trouble we are in with this moron as our GM. The Rangers twitter blocked me for pointing out how clueless he was and how he had ZERO creativity. My post for me was incredibly mild compared to what I post here. That shows you how thin skinned this GM is. I have no doubt he reads that twitter board and the guy is as soft as Charmin.
I think Drury needs to decide which path he wants to take this year. If this team is truly going to compete for a Cup this season, they need an upgrade on D, and a legit top 9 forward added (assuming Chytil is back to be a second top 9 forward added - they need to add two top 9 forwards if Chytil isn't coming back). If he isn't going to do that, then the Rangers should sell, because they cannot compete for a Cup without a few reinforcements. I also think Drury should seriously think about a big identity/chemistry changing trade to mix up the core group, this is most likely something that would happen in the summer though. Along those lines, if this team doesn't get it done this season, Drury needs to make big moves this summer for sure. You cannot bring back this core group fully if you fall short again, that would be crazy. Sadly, I have little faith Drury has the ability to get any of this done, and my guess is he makes one move for a rental like Tarasenko or someone like that, and maybe a depth dman, which I would argue is pointless and a waste of assets.
So, let's see guys I mentioned for the Rangers to get that were available and our dumb fuck GM's did nothing. Bennett. Reinhart. Barbashev, Gourde. Just a few. All were traded and all are a heck of a lot better than garbage on this team. Drury is an inept, clusterfuck.
Imo , they’re not enough good minds in all major sports . There’s a lot of money. Just not enough strategists!
The rangers were the best team in hockey They are now playing like the worst We all know one thing, being hot at the right time will win you a cup as long as you get in. That is all I’m hopin for right now. Get in!
I feel badly for him as well. At this point seems questionable at best he plays again, not worth the risk for his life. Will be interesting to see what Drury does now. Read today before the Chytil news, the Rangers are looking for 1 or 2 C's. I think the Rangers need 3 players to be legit, which is a lot. I admit I'm very intrigued by what Drury does or does not do leading up to the trade DL, especially with an additional $4.4M to play with.
Habs are on crack if they think they will get a 1st back for Monahan. So pass on him. The Rangers should not trade any more first or second round picks for the foreseeable future. Their top scorers are getting old. They need to replace them. Dubois is hated by Kings fans. Many question his desire to play hockey. It's a risk to trade for him. It would absolutely have to be 50% retained with Goodrow going back the other way. Goodrow is really the only salary going back that would make sense. I would also want a first round draft pick from the Kings because if that moron continues to be a bust, you're still on the hook for 4 million for quite a few years. Krebs on Buffalo might be a good steal target. There is no room for him there. He's only getting 12 minutes a night. His talent level is pretty high. He's winning 45% of his draws which I expect to up when he works with Peca. Jones might be a nice piece for the Sabres to add.
Saw Wennberg and Eberle mentioned if the Kraken fall out of it. Backlund from Calgary too. Monahan will probably bring back a late 2nd I'd think, plus maybe a midrange prospect.
You want to trade Goodrow for Dubois and a 1st and 50% retained by the Kings. I'm sure the Kings will jump to give up all that for Goodrow/to get rid of Dubois and have $4.25M of dead cap space for the next 7 seasons. Also, if you don't want to deal a 1st or 2nd round pick, don't expect to get any player of impact back. Dealing 1st and 2nd round picks is how trade DL deals work, if the Rangers won't, other teams surely will. I am not saying I agree or disagree with dealing those picks, just saying if you say I won't, then forget adding impact players. The Rangers already traded away their 2025 and 2026 2nd round picks to Arizona in the Nemeth deal. I have seen Henrique mentioned a few times, I think he is in play. He'd be a solid 3rd line C and wins over 50% of his FO's also (53.4% this year).
Krebs is starting to entice me. I can picture him with Cuylle and Othmann and flourishing. Monahan more of a lock to do so, but the price will be too high.
