Buffalo looking at Nash

[kreidertime]

Reported that NY wants Girgensons in any deal. That's the guy I'd want there. He's blocked to a 3rd line center. Also, it will then allow them to move Stepan. I'd take Kane back to make it happen.

Perhaps

Kane, Girgensons for Nash and Glass. Two people neither team wants to complement the deal.

Then move Stepan. Perhaps go after Trouba.

 

[kreidertime]

I think this rumor has serious legs. It makes a lot of sense. They have 12 million in cap. Girgensons is a RFA and not happy to be a third line center. They want to dump Kane at 6 million with 2 years on his contract. It's almost as if they are perfect trading partners.

 

[Ranger71]

Or Girgensons and Franson perhaps for Nash and McIlrath. Then hopefully Girardi or Staal get moved. They shouldn't have any problem eating 2m for the next 2y to move Nash.

 

[kreidertime]

Get over your fascination with trading McIlrath. He's going nowhere. He's young, good, right handed and not a pussy. Everything our sad D lacks. Franson is a pile of shit. He's terrible.

 

[Ranger71]

You know AV isn't that enamored with McIlperson Dumpy!

 

[kreidertime]

Let me tell you something about AV. If the Rangers stink this year, he's getting canned IMO. He'll go before McIlrath does. As dumb as Gorton is. I don't think he's going to be a fan of a coach who is making him look like an asshole in his first years as a GM of this team. He makes himself look like enough of an asshole. He doesn't need any help.

Who cares about AV. He'll be gone by january anyway. Beuk is not going to let him badmouth dylan like ballesss ulfie did.

With all the trouble Kane has been in lately I don't think the Rangers have to go crazy to land him. I agree about AV being on thin ice, the team has taken a step backwards with each year he's been here.

It's his MO with his short stint as head coach in the nhl.

 

[Ranger71]

Hey if we can get a talent (and a bit of an idiot)like Kane at bargain levels that's exactly the type of young talent needed in the mix.

 

[kreidertime]

I'm sure the Rangers don't want Kane. However, if they want Girgensons in the deal, Buff will probably make them eat the Kane contract to even the money out.

 

[Ranger71]

Apparently the deal involves Ennis and Franson but the Rangers want Buff to take full salary. Horrible. Stick with Nash if this dosent involve Girgensons or Kane.

 

[kreidertime]

Where did you hear that?

 

[kreidertime]

I can't see any way they take Franson unless they will then buy out Girardi. The money of those 2 players would equal Nash. Plus, neither of those two fits this team. There is no room on defense and nobody seems to want Staal and Girardi. There is no room up front.

 

[Ranger71]

I did a twitter search on Nash and it came up about a half hour ago.

 

[kreidertime]

I don't see that. Makes no sense for the Rangers. I can't see them having any interest in either of those players.

 

[Ranger71]

Its a tricky situation since we want to clear salary but also get value back. Franson+Ennis=Nash salary. And they don't give them anything for the future. Id at least ask for a 1st plus a top 5 prospect if you take 4m back.

 

[kreidertime]

I could not see 2 players of less interest to the Rangers than Ennis and Franson.

 

[Ranger71]

Yeah i know. Geez at least back some future prospects. They're looking to pull the wool over Gortons eyes. May as well just keep Nash and play out the year if you dont get a decent return.

 

[kreidertime]

Now I'm hearing Kane retained and Franson. Still don't like this deal. Agree, that I'd rather hold onto him. That deal even with retention will barely save any money.

 

[panzerporter]

Moving Nash is not as critical as moving Staal and Girardi, to me Staal is the guy who has to be moved. Girardi supposedly played hurt most of last year so there's a possibility his play might improve next year. I just don't see it with Staal.

 

[kreidertime]

Bullshit. Girardi just sucks ass now. People continue to make excuses for him. He sucked compared to Staal. However, Staal has been the whipping boy here ever since Del Zotto left.

 

[cagedlion]

............or maybe, Buffalo looked at Nash and did not like what they saw!
Most nhl deals are not based on talent. It's always about the money
situation.

 

[kreidertime]

Rumor now is Girgensons and picks for Nash. If this is true and Gorton hasn't done this, he should be fired.

 

[cagedlion]

^^^^^yes he should. It hurts to be a fan of this organization with a crappy owner who never cared about
the Ranger hockey team and a bunch of brainless yes men who do not know how to build a long
standing championship team.

TRUTH IS NOT WHINING!!!!!!

You have always been a great example of what's wrong with today's fans. Always negative, whining, never happy miserable clowns who love to bash on their team.

Since we came out of the lock out we have made the playoffs 10 out of 11 seasons and in the past 5 seasons we've made it made to the ECF's or beyond 3 of those times. How many teams do you know that have done that? yet here you are, whining like always.

 

[kreidertime]

You sound like some dumbass hick from Ohio who thinks having good seasons without championships is great. Get a clue dude. This is NY. Anything but a championship is a total failure. You don't get points for second place in NY. If you are happy making the playoffs, become a Sabres or Jackets fan.

And yet, here you are perfectly happy to lambast me every time I blast the owner and Ranger management.
You obviously are content just making the fucking playoffs. They have won nothing, but you constantly
kiss this organization's ass. Whenever you get a chance, you say the same crap in defense of the
organization. The Rangers have won squat, so get out of your attack mode and bark up somebody
else's posts. Thank you for reminding me that I will always question this organization and their
lack of Championships. Count them. It only takes one hand to come to a contented answer......for you.
