[The Final] Thank You Brassgod

[Placid]

I'll also miss BrassGod gifs and also him playing the trumphet.

Yeah, going to miss this :

Best wishes Brass.

Maybe it'll make a guest appearance in the "Around the NHL"-thread once in a while.

Testament to his skills + likability when seemingly not one fan is happy to see him go, even while most are happy with the hockey aspect of the trade. Brass developed great with the Rangers and we reaped the benefits. Thanks for everything Derick.

 

[RangerBoy]

Very good player. The Rangers made a really good trade getting him from Columbus and they made a really good trade trading him to Ottawa.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

All the best to Brass in Ottawa.

Extremely likable guy and it was awesome to watch him come to NY and flourish. I will always remember that first game after the Gabby trade. Added Clowe, Brass, Moore, and Dorsett. Crazy that all are gone now.

Well put.

 

[Ori]

I will definitely miss Brass. He played a huge role in our success the last 4-5 seasons.

Yeah true, I will miss Derick Brassard.

 

[Bluenote13]

Agreed.

So Gorton stuck to his guns during the draft , knowing he could get good value for Brass if he couldn't for Stepan

 

[FultonReed]

gonna miss this guy a bunch. had some clutch moments. he'll do well up in Ottawa, I'm sure.

 

[Captain Lindy]

I'll miss him. He was my favorite current Ranger along with Zook.

Good luck in Ottawa, Brass.

That is a rarity now. Brass was a great Ranger.

That rocket slapper against Montreal was one of those awesome moments that just sticks with me. Nothing better than the emotion you would see after a Brassard goal.

On a more serious note, the team hotness level just took a serious hit. Condolences to our lady Ranger fans.

This was actually one of the primary things I thought about when I learned of the trade and calmed down a bit. It was also one of the first things my girlfriend mentioned to me about the trade.

Thankfully, we still have Lundqvist. And Skjei is still rising.

Side-note: I thought Stoll was handsome as **** when his hair wasn't...weird.

ummmm

 

[Zuuuuc]

Thanks for everything Brassard.
I'll always remember hearing about the Gaborik trade on my way home from work, then finding out Brassard was one of the players coming back, and being kind of sad that it wasnt Anisimov or Dubi. About 6 hours later I was convinced after a four point night for Brassard

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Was just wondering this. I don't remember all too well, but I don't think they did one for Cally.

They did do one for Cally, as well as Stralman and Boyle when they all came to town with the Bolts.

They also did one for Hagelin.


I'd assume they will do one for Brassard, he was a key player in our two deep runs and was a fan favorite.



I'll miss you Brassard. I like the trade, but I love Brassard as a player so it's a tough one to swallow.

His slap shot goal on Tokarski was one of the best playoff goals in recent memory.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Derick really came together once he came to NY, I'll miss him, was helluva player here. So many memories ;(

Good luck with the sens!

 

[Machinehead]

I haven't blogged in awhile but I'm going to have something on this.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Very good player. The Rangers made a really good trade getting him from Columbus and they made a really good trade trading him to Ottawa.

I remember when for a while people were *****ing about that Gaborik trade. Gaborik had two great seasons here, but two seasons where he was invisible. Brassard was much better for us.

 

[YoSoyLalo]

That is a rarity now. Brass was a great Ranger.

Stralman, B. Boyle, Zucc, Brass, Raanta (to an extent), Pouliot...not as rare as you think. When we go the "under the radar" route, like these guys, it tends to turn out well. I think Zibs could be a 60 point player here, maybe even a 25-30 goal scorer. He's got the tools, and maybe the trade really pushes his motivation like it did with Brass.

I bet Zib turns out great and then we get rid of him too like all the others you mentioned

 

[Revel]

One of my favorites. Will miss you Brass.

 

[FultonReed]

one of my favorite non-goal scoring moments from the man himself

 

[The Gloaming]

Where's the gif where Brass made fun of someone's face?

I'll never forget his partial breakaway slapper against Tokarski and his game 6 hat trick.

Hopefully Ottawa makes the playoffs so Brass can really shine.

 

[JohnC]

They did do one for Cally

Glad you remember. I feel like I only remember them trying to do everything in their power to purge Cally from everyone's memories
