We have no need for another small player like Briere who is old and way past his useful days. We need size, not small old Briere.
an acquisition can take Fast's spot and he can fill in if there is an injury, someone is banged up, or someone sucks.
Trust in Sather. I know it's hard to say but he added St.Louis, Carcillo, and Klein last years and those guys were a big part in the Rangers going to the finals
Sather knows it's win now mode so I trust he will do his best to give them the tools for a long run. It's a matter of the cap and what's possible. As for negative comments it's a game thread. When bad stuff happens it's pointed oit or complained about. That's the entire idea. A continued dialog for those watching the game. When Girardi makes himself look like a damn fool I will talk about it. His play was awful and should never happen with a veteran.
I agree, I don't see anything wrong with being negative in game threads if one of your main guys plays like a fool. Both Mcd and G were beyond terrible last night. AV needs to give them less minutes in back to back games. They will be dead by the playoffs if he plays them this much. BTW...they are 3 points behind the isles and 4 behind the pens now. How amazing is that?
Very crazy when you consider they were 11 or 12 behind at the start of December. Big game coming against the fish sticks.
Win the games in hand and we'll be tied with the Pens and a point ahead of the Isles. Couple of Isles games coming up soon. Should be a lot of fun. I will be at the game in LI on the 27th. Pumped.
The Rangers winning 12 of 13 mostly against quality opponents is a feat they hadn't accomplished in 41 years but still there are doubters? AV has completely reversed the team's longtime core philosophy and turned the Rangers into an offensive juggernaut in under 2 years. They could have beaten the Kings 7-3 if CK and Hags could finish, Quick made some incredible saves on high quality chances too. What a difference a few weeks make. Glass has no trade value unless Hags or Staal are being included in the deal, don't think Moore is enough to compensate for Tanner's sucking. I would be working Allen into the lineup with Moore, he's got the size Hunwick lacks.
So you say this team is SMALL, then you say we should acquire Daniel -Im softer then ice cream- Briere, that's just clown material right there, glad the CIRCUS is back in town. Briere's not only a midget but OLD, his best days are years behind him, frankly he'd do little to absolutely no improvement for this team. This team needs a grinder/powerforward that can park it in front of the net on the power play/ or another defenseman who can clear the crease make solid passes and play respectable defense. On offense I'd look at Wayne simmons, Viktor stalberg, Matt Moulson(contracts are a challenge) . On defense Andrej Sekera, Shane O'brien, or maybe a Brian Campbell(last year on contract) for added toughness/ offense with compbell
