Shanny, I respect very much but no. Avery yes but at a reasonable price cause we have more pressing needs. The Rangers must keep Jagr.

Avery yes but at a reasonable price cause we have more pressing needs.

Score 2-3 more powerplay goals in this series and we might be looking forward to Philly. Please oh please let shanny retire and someone refuse to let Straka, Hollweg and Malik anywhere near this team. Agreed.I wish people would let it go already with the refs.

Sure, the refs sucked, but look at the Rangers' impotent PP, inability to clear their own zone or pick up open men in front of the net, and their uneven physical, mental and emotional commitment before you try and lay a 4-1 defeat on the stripes. I love the Rangers, but they lost that series. Refs don’t lose games, and they definitely don’t lose series.

Straka - Either let him go or a lowball contract (1.5 m) to play 4th line/kill penalties or let him walk. Shanny - call it a career pal, the HOF is waiting for you. Mara - resign for much less than he is making, or let him go. Malik- Gone Rozsi - I'd try and see what I could do on the FA market, but I'd bring him back cheaply enough if we can't get a decent replacement. Strudwick - go coach in Hartford. Valley - let him go and sign a vet backup to help Hank with consistency issues. Avery - no more than 3 million. I know you can't blame him for the spleen, but it's always SOMETHING with him. He is eventual locker room cancer. He was nobody in the games he actually played this series (his goal in game 1 was a softie, not to mention what a turnover machine he was). He's a 3rd line player, no more than 3 million. His whopping 15 goals won't be missed, he gets paid for intagibles. intagibles aren't worth more than 3 million. Try and trade Blair Betts and Ryan Hollweg. We might get something decent for Betts if we can package him. Good faceoffs, great shot blocker and Penalty Killer. No Marian Hossa, No Brian Campbell, keep building from within with FA plugging up depth holes (ie, Malone/Orpik for size).
