No point of watching these idiots until January

what joke.

 

I'm about to cancel my center ice package from directv so I don't have to deal with this shit.

 

might as well, 28. Every year same shit

 

From your lips to gods ear step. I hope it is the same shit every year. SCF here we come...

 

I am telling you chuck, same shit but different year. roster turnover, long trip bs excuse or something else. I am really considering not to watch this until January.

 

I think you should do it. Let's be honest...with an 82 game season it doesn't really pick up until Dec/Jan anyway.

 

I was thinking the same thing as soon as step got hurt, and again 4 minutes into the third period.

 

Ha ha ha Chuck. You are in midseason form. LOL

 

After November 6th, approx 25-30 games in, Ranger fans will
get a grasp how this team will play. No doubt anything can happen.....
good or bad: a trade or two, player's progress or lack of, more injuries,etc.

.......and suspensions! lol

 

3 games short of winning Stanley Cup, 8 games into the season and posters on this board are running up the white flag. Very, very odd posters here. The good news is I'm sure the majority of Ranger fans are much more level headed than the posters here.

 

some of the posters. there are a few good ones. need a lot more though

 

2 zip, not worried 70+ games left

 

lol, pathetic just pathetic. Another pitiful loss coming up at home.

 

LOL, boy was I wrong about this one!

 

Great comeback win, even another goal by my favorite whipping boy Klein, the Rangers lone defenseman with 2 goals now. Getting Klein for the empty-headed Del Zotto was a good trade by Glen. I'm starting to think I'd rather keep Klein and try to move Staal now, can't see paying him anything near what he'll want next year.

Dumb penalty by CK was more a product of his strength while the penalty by J. Moore might earn him a game or 2 suspension. This year's Ranger team is considerably better than last year's was at this time even without Stepan and Boyle. No surprise the PP needs work but should improve when Step & Boyle return.

 

agree, I am not impressed with Staal its time to cut bait with him. he is not a defensive force to pay him over 5 million a year will be crippling the cap.

 

To me with Staal it is about his play on some level for sure, clearly he is not close to the dman he used to be, but I think it is even deeper than that. The guy wants 5/6 years 5.5/6 mill per, and I just don't see how we can possibly re-sign him to that type of deal given our team makeup and the cap situation. Frankly I think it would be flat out crazy to do so.

Boyle signed for next season. Girardi signed for many more seasons. Klein signed for a few more seasons. McD signed for many more seasons. We have some kids close. Moore will be here. I just don't see the need for Staal with that type of contract.

We should play out this season, if we are in it at the trade DL and can get back a good top 4 dman trade Staal. If we cannot get a good return (and this is the most likely option) we let the season play out and Staal can walk this summer, I am okay with that in his case. If we are out of it (unlikely) we deal Staal for something future at the trade DL.

This has been my opinion since early summer and has nothing to really do with his play through 9 games, but that has locked in my opinion even more.

 

You start scouting and callkng Carolina, teams like the hurricanes in their market need playoffs to help with their bottom line...see what interest they have now and go forward
