    If not, I can't believe we took another 6'7 goalie. When will they learn. All those tall goalies turn out to be shit for us.

    Oh shit Boucher went 10th overall. That’s ridiculous fucking Ottawa has no clue. I didn’t even look for him that early.

    On the surface it looks like a good draft but we'll see, especially if the kid with the ACL develops. He's already ahead of Clark just by avoiding an Olof Lindbom in the 3rd round.

    Just give me the first rounder working out and I’ll be happy

    After looking at all the picks I like the way these kids look. Big, strong, can score and play with an attitude. It’s refreshing.

    Amen. Most of our dumbass fan base, especially on HF and OTG doesn't realize the Rangers are going to be really top heavy with about 6 to 7 contracts. Meaning, 3 years from now you probably are going to need young, phsyical, nasty, decent talent level 3rd and 4th line forwards who will be breaking in the NHL and are cheap. So to me it's better to draft guys like Cuylle and Othmann than trying to find a 1st or 2nd line offensive player. The Rangers basically get almost every big free agent they really want. So, I'm not worried about them having top line talent.
