Embarrassed in the 1st round?? But I was told we DOMINATED the Rangers and it was just BAD LUCK and ALL CAREY PRICE'S FAULT that we lost!
Some people just watch the games with rose tinted glasses. What happens to the Rangers and CH this season is no surprise to anybody who watched this series. Both team ***** very very hard. NYR were awful until Weber waked them up by beating one of their best player. But both teams were awful and would have probably lost to any other team in the first round. We just *** more than they did. Lundqvist had an average series giving lot of rebounds and handling the puck like a grenades.
NYR's GM already took actions to improve the team. He traded Stepan for a pick and a young player. He was vocal about selling while his team was still making the playoffs. He can see his team is not heading in the right direction. MB though is still dreaming about Weber staring down the competition on his way to an imaginary Stanley cup. At this point i'm not even sure we will sell. We will trade Plekanec probably ...
But we should trade Byron before his value drops. I don't dislike the guy but we have too many of those players and he his the oldest one. We should totally gut the left side of the defense to make room for new players next year. Benn and Schlemko are under contract for next season and we wont get more for them next summer and they wont be easier to trade while other GMs will be salivating about big UFA names. They should be moved for the best offer whatever it is if there's taker. But nope MB will probably just dream about this awesome team he built instead of acting.
