Comments on: What we think we know after the Rangers’ European adventure http://rangers.lohudblogs.com/2008/10/06/what-we-think-we-know-after-the-rangers-european-adventure/ News and insight about the New York Rangers by Rick Carpiniello Fri, 10 Feb 2012 21:18:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Neil http://rangers.lohudblogs.com/2008/10/06/what-we-think-we-know-after-the-rangers-european-adventure/#comment-101336 Neil Tue, 07 Oct 2008 07:57:58 +0000 http://rangers.lohudblogs.com/2008/10/06/what-we-think-we-know-after-the-rangers-european-adventure/#comment-101336 Sam, there is one more telling indicator that the Rangers will unload a forward. The Hartford Wolfpack are currently carrying 9 defensemen (with Fahey and Potter). That does not include Sauer who is back in late November. In essence, the glut of forwards on the big club is causing a glut of defensemen down on the farm that need playing time to develop. A move is absolutely necessary. Ultimately, I think Sather is looking for a draft pick in the upcoming draft. The pick could either be used in what will be a stacked draft. Or could be turned around for even greater value at the deadline. Sam, there is one more telling indicator that the Rangers will unload a forward.

Kalinin threw more hits in the first game than Malik has in his entire career. Sam, there is no way that Kalinin is another Malik.

Quit it. The guy is/was great. Leave it be. 2nd, if you really think there is a spot for him on this team after what we saw this weekend like the quick, speedy forechecking and beating Tampa to the puck 4 out of 5x, you are kidding!

That is sad and pathetic. So Kalinin has a great game yet Weinman criticizes him and claims he is likely the next Malik. That is sad and pathetic.

Anyone who watches Prucha sees he is simply a nervous wreck just waiting to get pummeled. He spends most of the game sliding on the ice from being plastered or from falling avoiding hits. Teams get their confidence up by drilling him and get their crowds reved. He's momentum for the other team. Yet, because he scored 30 goals one year playing with Jagr the know it alls are still singing his praises, yet they will criticize Chris Drury...Give me a break.
