Post-Game Talk: Rangers @ Kings

[Miamipuck]

While not a great deal, I don't think it ranks anywhere near the Middleton/Hodge or Ridley/Miller - Carpenter deals.
Norstrom developed into a top 4 defender.

Norstrom's and ot Ferraro's absence are not the reason we miss the PO's and the other two were scrubs.

Granted, the deal didn't work out, but when you have an in their prime Brian Leetch, Adam Graves, 22 year old Kovalev you want to try to accentuate that with talent which Kurri had.

The one trade that was in line with bolded trades above (and in my opinion the worst deal in NYR history) was Zubov/Nedved for Robatille and Samuelsson trade.

Nedved was 23, Zubov was 25, Luc was 29 and Ulf was 31.

that was BRUTAL

To this day I want to punch Neil Smith in the face for this trade. I hated it the second I heard it, I hated it more the day after and I have only grown to hate it more.

Magic win, exorcised some ghosts from last season!

Nice to see MSL put one.
Nash could have had a hat-trick, but he just couldnt finish his chances today.

All in all: splendid day in Rangersland.

A player will be penalized if he throws, tosses, slides or shoots a stick to teammate on the ice. A player may not participate in the play using a goalkeeper’s stick. A minor penalty shall be imposed for an infraction of this rule.

There's your answer. So Miller should've been penalized for what he did with his stick. The refereeing was pretty bad all around though, and that penalty on McDonagh on Brown's dive makes up for it I guess.

He didn't throw it to a teammate, he threw it to the ice. Ergo no penalty and Dan Boyle is a wise old man

 

[sbjnyc]

So next time he should just kick it?

I still can't believe we got Kevin Klein for frickin Michael Del Zotto.

If that trend holds up we should be able to get Ovechkin for Tanner Glass

Does anyone have a gif of browns dive?

Would like to see that as well.

If a basement team would give us even a C prospect for Glass, it would be equivalent in my view.

Ehh, not sure I'm ready to sacrifice the physical element that Glass brings, its been instrumental to the team's success thus far.

 

[The Lunatic Fridge]

Anyone else wake up and just go "**** yeah, we beat those sorry [expletives]"

Nice way to start the day

Sather-esque trade. I'm convinced he gets GM's drunk before he talks deals.

I'd be happy if we traded glass for a bag of pucks at this point... I don't think I've hates seeing a guy on the Rangers more than glass

Why? As long as he's not playing, he can sit in the locker room and be friendly all he wants.

Because if there's even one forward injury, he's back in the lineup, which automatically transforms the Rangers into a three line team.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaand he takes up 1.5 mill of dead cap space

Brashear? Scott?

Scott was more hilarious than anything. It's not like he was played in 26 straight games or anything though lol. He played 6 games for us.

Brashear is the only player who comes close to Glass for me.

 

[egelband]

Nothing against Glass. Seems like a good guy, good effort, physical. He just isnt as good as this teams other options.

And only when the glass is half full, mind you.
