no name calling to other posters please. What you think of this poster has nothing to do with the Rangers.

Pasta, not for nothing but Mark Staal plays either first or at worst 2nd pair defense and 20 plus minutes a game with ANY TEAM in hockey.

mrmel, i have been a rangers fan for a long time, staal has been here what 5+ seasons or more ?, he has had about maybe and i'm being very generous 7 games a year where he plays a game where he is actually noticable, he had the biggest platform of his career to shine and he was a no show, rangers fans have had way too high an expectation from the kid far too long, who has just been pretty much an avg dman in league!

maybe if he played with a little more heart, he wouldn't be gettin as much ice time , and that would be fine with me, and i would hope all rangers fans if he actually made more of an impact!

So of all the players to choose from you pick Staal. You've singled him out for 5 years now, he's been a solid Defensive dman for the Rangers in his tenure here and your bias towards him is some what pathetic as there are other on the roster that deserve to be singled out and hammered home. But you choose Staal time and time again. "We move on"

 

[Pastafazul]

all the players? where were you when i posted rangers will never win a cup with girardi & staal gettin all the minutes? where were you when i posted stralman was a our best d man and how pathetic that really is? and all the talk post season was about trying to keep stralman...

Your words mean nothing about the poster. Proves nothing. Off topic, speculative. Please look at my reply to you below. truebluefan

Pasta, Staal has just come back this year from 2 injury plagued seasons from a severe concussion and than another one and a severe eye injury. He is healthy now for the first time in 3 years and I expect him to pick up where he was when he got the first concussion in feb,2011 when he was one of the top defenseman in hockey. There isn't a team that wouldn't love to have him and the rangers are included in that. On the open market he's getting 6 mill plus and I'm hoping the rangers get a hometown discount in the girardi salary range. This team takes a big step back if staal gets traded defensively especially with strahlman gone.

mrmel, injury or no injury, i was lead to believe along time ago staal was going to be a household name, he is not even close.. when his contract was up last time he sat out lookin for 6 mill, lol, do u really believe he was worth it then, or even now? and i know my arguement is pretty much is moot cause of what girardi got!! yikes... wtf... please this team does some stoopit schitt, maybe thats why we haven't won the cup in 21 now, and what 4 in 100 years????


top dman in hockey??? please !! i have admitted i don't know hockey, but c'mon, when his last contract expired not 1 team was a callin

Pasta is obviously special ed. No matter where he goes, the mods defend him. It's like he sends them proof that he is mentally handicapped and they just let him post idiotic crap forever.

Ok one more time, this forum is about the Rangers. It is not about what you think about a fellow fan. Maybe the reason why he is defended everywhere you go is because of the petty name calling from posters on most message boards are usually not tolerated? You dont like his views? Fine! That is what message boards are all about! However, name calling adds nothing to the conversation. And name calling is not what the forum is about. Debate opinions about the team, coaches, GM's, and other teams. Do not debate what you think about each other.

One of your posts has been edited. I left what you wrote to show you what is not allowed. So you cannot blame someone else if you dont stop your mannerism on this board. You cant blame Pasta or me.

Staal is the least of this team's problems. Girardi on the other hand...
