jeever nice sarcasm. jr dolan knows the general feeling of the fans (not this blog in particular). you are right they don’t listen to fans all the time. but with regard to older players who people buy jerseys of they GIVE THE FANS WHAT THEY WANT. even if it nakes no sense in trying to win a cup eventually

ice cold the $ 3 mm is my estimate of what he will get coming off $ 5.2 mm. the 80% agreeing with you seems to be the case reading these comments

Here’s a rundown on the Rangers (0) Traverse City opener with Detroit (4) from the infamous Rangers website.

LI Joe is totally right… “Sather and Junior Dolan” (we GET it. his daddy gave him the Rangers) read Sam’s blog, read the comments, and THAT’S how they know what to do… That’s exactly why they raise ticket prices every year the Rangers make the playoffs (after nearly a decade of not), why they traded away one of the biggest fan favorites EVER, Leetch, and why they get booed and hated by fans everywhere… Its because they listen to fans.

Hey joe thanks for your unwanted criticism! there’s a reason why i said there are still SOME people who want him back.

in what shape or form did i say he’s gonna come back for 3million , or when did ANYONE say that to begin with? no lets go after sundin who’ll cost 3 times as shanny and probably an extra player off the team.

I saw the line combos from Traverse City and they looked goofy. Why was Zaborsky on the 3rd line? He should be playing on a line with Anisimov and Grachev.

Also, the D looked incredibly thin after Bobby Sags; no disrespect to Del Zotto but this is his first pro camp and a lot of these other prospects are a little more developed physically.

ice cold – reading these blogs 80% want the 40 yr old back. so junior dolan will do it with Sather’s assistance. just make sure to buy a couple of his jerseys one home and one away. he might even be ok in the 2008 part of the season.

don’t worry about things like the salary cap for his $ 3 mm salary. we’ll fit it in by deferring 1/2 to next yr once the players ratify. so Shanny will affect the 2009-2010 swason as well.

great idea NOT. unfortunately will happen.

Ranger prospects lose 4-0 to Detroit. Not many bright spots for NY. I must say they looked a ton better last year in this tourney. Way too many penalties (which must come from watching the Rangers players from last season), poor defensive play in their own zone especially on bad rebounds and overall slow pace which this being the first game is somewhat understandable. Hopefully they look better tomorrow against the Lightning. I’ll give my comments in here for that one as well.
