i never trust a post that starts out 'of course you all agree with me' 8^)
anyway, as NYR fan, i don't agree that Buch must be traded, or that Kreider shoulda been.
Maybe i am too old school, but guys who come up with the team, and earn top roles, become part of the identity, I like those guys, get attached to those guys, and don't just see a marketable asset.
NYR have moved a number of accomplished in-house developed guys - Hayes, McDonough, Zucc, Miller, Pionk -
They don't have to cycle out ALL of them
Flat cap sucks, but the team will figure it out.
