Prucha sucks. Dawes sucks. Kalinin sucks.

Get over it and move on.

I find it hard to believe you guys don’t think we are a better team today than we were yesterday.

jeffluke—There must’ve been something going on with O’sullivan. Some info we don’t know.

O’Sullivan is from Winston-Salem. Carolina had a chance to have a local boy on the roster, but they chose not to. His father is from Canada and was pretty abusive to his son. It got to be a big scandal later in Canada. Slover on the Sporting News suggested it might have been too hard on him to play in Carolina where all the past would come spilling out.

I very much agree that Sather is to blame for the state of our team today due to his senility.At the beginning he was justifying getting rid of Jags because “we wanted to get younger and faster” but yet he knew what type of game clueless had in mind.He sat and watched as we struggled with his team and Renneys coaching until he gets a brain fart and does the right thing by getting Torts,which I have a good source that tells me it really wasnt his 1st choice but more Dolans.Now we get BIGGER and OLDER with the usual suspects(Drury,Blomez,Redden)still suckin wind.And where are the new cast(Rissmuller,Voros,Kililen,Fritchse) all gone in the land of OZ. How many rebuilds and different styles will this Cybil GM of OUR TEAM put us through. I for one dont accept his backpeddeling B/S to me he is another used car salesman like the last coach. I`m going to the game tonight to that hole in the ground to see my boy Aves and to wear my Pru jersey in memory of someone who played with heart and guts not like the crew we are stuck with now

turcotte

haha

just hoping all this ice time pays off, he’s obviously Tort’s pet…

Thanks for the Burke quote. As I was telling ORR yesterday, I can’t wrap my feeble brain around his moves/intentions. A thousand goalies….
If you pull 2 Dman can you add an extra keeper?

The Rangers are clearly a better team with Avery, Antropov and Morris in the mix over Kalinin, Prucha and Dawes. They got a lot bigger, much grittier, and way better on defense.

I don’t know why people think Morris is soft, he is not soft at all! He is a solid two-way defenceman.

And who cares if these guys don’t play well, they are rentals who will be gone in the summer. Which will leave space for Anisimov and Sanguinetti next season.

Who were the goalies that were realistically on the market aside from Lehtonen?

The Habs, Caps and Flyers I think would all like to go into the playoffs with a sturdier goalie and Buffalo has the Miller injury to deal with.

But unless they were willing to strengthen the Devils with some talent for Clemmensen (and why would you help a team that you could end up facing at some point the playoffs) it looks like no one except Toronto was going to add a goalie.
