D. Moore, Carcillo, Falk, Pyatt, Asham, ect.... When will he stop with this stupidity? The asswipe has been doing it for years. He finally seems to have hit on one with Pouliot. Other than that, he's basically wasted 6 million dollars on unnecessary crap.
A couple of them were brought in for toughness since the Rangers have almost no grit...but they don't bring much else to the table, that's for sure. I'd rather they give some of the prospects a shot over the dead-weight vets myself. But these guys are all 10-13 shifts/8 minutes a game type of player...basically brought in to see if they have anything working on that night, when it's clear they don't they're then only brought in to spell the other 3 lines and not make mistakes that cost goals. But I agree, not money well-spent.
I love that the fact you have finally done a 180 and are calling Sather out dump. Given his terrible results as GM here it is about time. Welcome aboard. Asham, Rupp, Pyatt all terrible signings. That is where Sather has struggled the most. In hindsight we should have re-signed Prust and been done with it. Yes he gets 2.5 a season, but we have paid a lot more than that combined in the useless players we have brought in the past few seasons to replace Prust. And Prust was a clear leader on this team. Hindsight is always 20/20, but that was a mistake not matching the Habs offer given the useless guys we have brought in that have made way more than Prust's 2.5 per combined.
Pouliot has been "ok". Pacing at 15-15-30 which is basically his career output. I guess 15gls @ 1.3M is not bad, but i wouldn't miss him if he left.
The correct plan of building a cup team is when your role players for 1.3 million get 15 goals and 15 assists. That is one of the way you win cups. If you look at the Black Hawks, Kings and Bruins, that is what their 3rd line players do. I would jump for joy if we had a third line that scored 45 goals a season. At this point, I would mind if Pouliot left because his brain has mind melded with Brassard's and together they seem to play well together with AV monitoring them. Now if Stepan would get his fat, girly armed ass in shape and start to play like a 65 point center, the team would be much better.
Of those Al, three are gone are were a waste of money. Carcillo will probably be released when Dorsett comes back. I actually think Carcillo has surprised many like myself. However, doesn't matter as Sather will most likely dump him. So basically, D. Moore is the only role player out of that group that will be left and Lindberg could replace him right now. Stop sulking like a tool. If you grew up and didn't try to be a wise ass and start crap all the time, you wouldn't get ripped. I did a 180 on Zucc also. If they prove they belong, so be it. On one hand you start crap with posters who praise prospects and are optimistic. On the other hand, when we rip players and then they play well, you start crap on that. Basically, you're a miserable Rangers fan who just likes to take the other side to be a tool.
or....here is another thought....I have a different opinion than you and don't back down from that opinion.
Carcillo's been alot better in his short time here than Dorsett has, so they'd be stupid to let him go. If anything I'd think about resigning him and dumping Dorsett in the offseason.
