Fisher was a joke and his players never respected him
He never should have been hired to be a HC in first place
The Knicks stink. The "zenmaster" is a hilarious GM. He doesn't care at this stage in his career. Add in to the fact that Dolan is a cheapskate who doesn't care its hilarious he's taking his money though.
Not sure who would want to take that job. I wouldn't. As long as Carmelo is there you won't win. Its not like big names die to play there or anything.
Dolan may be lots of things but he's not a cheapskate.
I mean though outside of Anthony who is the last big name? They don't sign huge free agents and technically they got Anthony in a trade first.
Still don't get those people who were all like "Phil was a great coach...this was a great hire by the Knicks" based on what? He wasn't working in the front office. Take out Jordan and Kobe/Shaq he doesn't have 10 titles. He would be lucky to have half that.
Who in their right mind would want to sign with them? They chased DeAndre Jordan last summer but never really had a shot. They chased Bron when he went to Miami. They'll chase Durant or Westbrook.
NY Rangers have no trouble attracting free agents and have consistently made big splashes in free agency.
But then again you despise all NY.
Not a hockey guy but it hasn't helped NY rangers. They haven't won a championship. I'll sometimes watch the postseason though especially if its a rivalry. Last year they were outplayed by Washington. They lost to Tampa bay eventually. The year before they did go on a lucky run to the finals but since 1994 its not like they've really come all that close to 2 years ago. They say the run 2 years ago was because they had one of the best goaltenders. So with having a top notch goalie they still can't win it all. It appears spending hasn't done too much for that franchise the last 15 years. I would say though that it doesn't matter as much as it would in basketball because in basketball you need the top notch talent to actually have a chance. In the other sports it means very little. You can assemble a stud roster and the chemistry or lack their of could total make it a flop.
I don't know all hockey names but what's a big free agent? The NY channel I get stuck watching has noted their 2 latest free agent signings the last few years being some Richards and Nash guy(especially the Nash guy)as weak playoff performers.
What is a "not a hockey guy" doing posting everyday in a hockey forum?
