apparently, yet you have the complaining gig down w/o any help.
Funny I don't think I was complaining at all.

All I stated was that the criticism of Drury was warranted.

Listen, I have long thought the NYR were too soft, gave up the blue line WAY TOO EASILY and didn't win enough board battles. Not even close.

If Goodrow is here to play the way he has for the past 3-4 yrs and not for retirement... great. If Buch was traded for a 2nd and Blais & Blais blows, I may complain and have every right to do so.

But saying that Drury gets a C or whatever for his offseason isn't complaining and it is largely accurate at this point.

so you’re complaining. When asked for a solution you copout by claiming you’re not a GM/Drury. Quite a hobby there.

The rangers are the softest team in the NHL! We needed toughness and protection for our best players.. anyone who doesn’t see this is blind..

You need tough players who are able to defend themselves, not bodyguards.

Goodrow and Blais might be that, provided Blais can avoid getting hurt.

Reaves and Tinordi, not so much.

Still not sure how this is your take on what I've said but whatever.

It's August... lotta time (June 22) left to complain

pretty simple. You ridicule the moves made and certain you’re correct yet when asked what moves you would make you copout by claiming your name isn’t Drury and not a GM. Hello :nod:

Where did I say I was certain I was correct? This has reached outlandish "FAKE NEWS" levels at this point.

I said the criticism of Drury was fine on a hockey discussion board.

You disagree. Also fine.

Won't be the first or last time I'm sure.

Sometimes you need both. You do not want to lose your better players to fighting majors or suspensions. If Reeves and Wilson fight we win regardless of the outcome.

Reaves won't prevent Wilson from taking liberties, but he will give our guys more courage to stand up for themselves or take some cheap shots of their own, knowing Reaves will answer the bell. It's not a perfect science but in a grinding fast and physical sport any mental edge you can inject to your team matters.
