That's not an attack - that's a comedy relief! And that's why he isn't doing much "setting up". UES Blueshirt

It was sickening last night hearing Pierre Maguire saying how it was so unfair to Renney to be fired. "A good coach had to be let go because of the mistakes made by his GM." I want to ask him how many Ranger games he actually watched. He wouldn't be yapping those words if he was aware of the damage Renney did to a lot of guys on this team. Alex B @ 5:29 pm

Good post.

Kalinan is a UFA end of the year and he will not be back... Maybe Vaananen stinks, I have no opinion on him .. The rangers looked good to me last night, best in a while. Yeah they scored there usual 1 goal but had numerous good chances and need some time to jell with the new plan. Dubi needs to shoot all the damn time, he takes to long to get his shot off, stop thinking and react... bad call in OT, cally was puchsed but what can you do... forecheck forecheck forecheck tonight, a good defense is a pressuring offense... spiderpis why would kalinan affect Vaananen?

Dubi needs to shoot all the damn time, he takes to long to get his shot off, stop thinking and react…

Don't get too crazy. Dubinsky looked his typical good skating and grittyness, but nothing decent for producing points. Reitz is fine, but needs to learn to play within his limits, like Strudwick did. No backhanding the puck into the zone on a dump-in. Oh please, the fourth line has created more offense in at least five other games this year than last night. Don’t get too crazy.

Do they have enough giveaways for a full house are do they only have a certain number? Sure, we could pick up Ossi, but that would probably mean waiving Kalinin or trading him quickly, and Sather probably doesn't want to do that because Kalinin was signed this season. Even though Kalinin has been better, it would make sense for more maneuverability for trades. Metropolit is signed through next season, so no need for him.
