Morris is gone to B-town
The Boston Bruins are about to sign Derek Morris, according to this report. He’ll do well there. Hard to believe he’s only 30. I don’t know if the Rangers could have afforded him, or if he fit the plans, but he was pretty solid, if unspectacular, in the short time he played in New York.
Thanks to blogster TR-808 for the tip.

so long mo cheeks don’t let the door hit ya where the good lord splits ya
Bean town …looks like that trade was a bust for us .
Yo Mouth , ya made it to first!!!
so when it doesnt happen its my fault. lol.
my best tips come from wikipedia, hahahaha
not a bad move for the B’s. Wonder what he got? Best of luck.
I love it when people are too cool to say “first” hahahahahaaa wtg !! Btw Mouth , Gaborik will be fine this year. He will do soooo good , you’ll have at least 10 shows in which he will be the focal point!!
i would much rather have morris than roscival
its kinda weird if you think about it. they trade ward and then sign morris. have they forgot about kessel?
No. They needed a replacement and my guess is Morris took less bc he gets a chance to play on a winner.
Thanks Carp. I added your tip to my Ward story:

Derek
Aaron Ward to Carolina. That’s funny. I hope the 5-9 Scott Walker doesn’t cold cock him in practice the way he did during last year’s playoffs.
not my report.
it will be awkward when Ward has to deal with Walker but not as awkward as when Brash walks in the NYR locker room for the first time. betts or no betts
Now that Morris is off the market, It looks like if the Blueshirts are gonna upgrade their power play points it’s gonna be Zubov or Marc Andre Bergeron.
Is it official? I checked the Bruins website and there is no mention of it.
no, definitely not official.
the Rangers drafted 2 players to run the power play( Del Zotto, and Sanguenetti).
it is time to let them do that. no more free agent, or traded for Dmen.
I don’t know if the blog that this report is from is too reliable, the last posting on it before today is from February.
He’ll score against us for sure, that’s just how it goes.
Good move by Slats to not sign him. Go with youth, trade Rozi, and bring in Zubov. If Zubs gets injured, who cares, more youth to prove themselves.
Lol, Carp, is it hard to believe he’s 30 cause he looks 50 ? Nothing personal against Mo-Cheeks but he looks like a very old pig. I like the guy though, but i was a huge Pruchs fan, and can never get over him getting traded. I wish instead of getting Shoes, and Morris, we could have gotten Michalek, and Carcillo. But no, Slats got garbage. Although Lisin may be a good trade, who knows. Dawes was expendable, but i hope he doesn’t turn out to be as good as he is in NHL 09. He’s tearing it up in my season.
i really cant stand the fact that both redden and rozy are still on the team.
honestly, if there is truth to the rumor that we are trading for patrick sharp, i would have no problem trading dubi as a “sweetener” with rozy to toronto for kaberle.
1. sharp for a prospect/pick (since they cant take money back)
then,
2. dubi and rozy for kaberle and white
When I was the teams assistant massage therapist for two months this year, Mr Morris always like me to cream him in his estrogeneous zones.
it would foolish to trade Dubinski, young, skilled, tough, and has not hit his prime yet.
trading him is one that the Rangers, and Ranger fans would regret for a long time.
somerset, dubi and Rosi for Kaberle and white? unless you know for a fact ur signing Savard next offseason I would hate to see that trade. If your trading Dubi, its for a playmaking center which is what the Rangers need. We have plenty of Defensmen for the next decade.
and where in the hell is Boston getting this money from? They had like 4 million left to spare and still need to sign Kessel. I think this is a bad sign if its true…
dubi and rozy for kaberle and white is such a dumb trade, kaberle is over 30, as good as he is its not worth giving up all that age with dubinsky, and like someone stated we have plenty of young D-men to come up and run the PP soon, brutal trade
Hey fake lou vega, what is an estrogeneous zone? Did you mean erogenous zone? If you’re going to try and be funny (which you’re not), please at least try to be grammatically correct.
Staal-Girardi
Gilroy-Del Z / Sangs
Redden-Rozi
Trade Rozi, and put Sangs in his spot, if not then that’s what i expect our D to look like. Unless we bring in Zubov.
Would it make any sense to you guys, for the rangers to forget about dubi and Z, although it is a little dissapointing, sign RFA phil kessel for 3.5-3.75 mil for two years—then let grachev step up and play third line wing?? The lines could be
Gaborik-Drury-avery
Callahan-Higgins-Kessel
Kotalik- Anisimov- Grachev
Brash-Lisin-Voros
The bruins only have 2.5 mil left in cap space so they would not be able to match….
I dont know about two kids playing on the same pair though, thats why i think staal and girardi may get broken up, as much as i love watching them play together it may be the smart thing to do, we’ll see
f that, i rather have dubi than kessel, kessel is sick but injury prone and i wouldnot give up dubi for anything right now he has played 2 full seasons can we see what he progresses into instead of trying to tailor make our team every year
Dumb moron flaker, until that slip up, you were turning me on. Since my baby left me at Heartbreak Motel.
what is happening to this blog?
too many weirdos lately and weird posts, i dont understand it, talk rangers or hockey or be out
or seinfeld
zzz 13 zzz
I hope you’re right about Gaborik , Im worried already and it’s frigging July. I gotta get some more REAL problems I shouldn’t be worrying about this nonsense. So how many is Gabby gonna get 35-40? I need some positive reinforcement
I’m not worried about Gaborik. He is entering his prime and he rested almost the entire season last year. He came back and tore it up.
Gabby will get at least 40, especially if the rest of the team will be as well conditioned as Torts wants them to be.
Even if Gabby is hurt, it’s not the end of the world..
Cally
Drury
Higgins
Kotalik
That’s four 20 goal scorers… yea it’s not 40 or 50, but it’s still offense. Hell, Avery might even net 18-20.
Oh yea, we still have Lundqvist… though I fear he’s going to be burnt out with Torts’ style… I love Vally, but he can’t handle a 20-25 game load.
Just visit Speedousa ,com and enjoy.
Totally irrelevant but Messier was at the Yankees game today with his kids.
i liked morris is shot however he was another one who would never hit the net with it. i have no problem seeing him leave. i wonder what the terms were when this becomes official. tsn doesnt have it so i cant think for sure its done.
as for playing 2 kids on d
i think potter and gilroy get the spots
staal-girardi
redden-rozy
gilroy-potter
i would deal rozi and zherdev for richards and sign zubov
Everyone wants the kids to play so this seems to make that inevitable.
on another note
If anyone interested a sim league we have 2 openings. we already have several ranger fans managing teams
shfl.org
Thanks,
Marty
it was like this last summer with the trolls too.. once the season gets going it dies down
Everyone have a good week…I’m off to the Carolina’s

Morris for 1yr/3.3mil
they give ward 2.5 bring in morris for 3.3 how does that help them with kessel. i figured dumping ward was cap space for kessel. i cant figure this one out
wow !!!! someone pretended to be me at 9:39
I’m SO HONORED
The trade proposal was me though, but you guys missed the most important part of the Dubi and Rozy for Kaberle and White trade
IF THE RUMOR IS TRUE ABOUT US TRADING FOR SHARP !!!!
then, to me Dubinsky is expendable
IF NOT, then we dont trade Dubinsky
Is this roster really that bad???
Gabo – Sharp – Avery
Cally – Drury – Kotalik
Higgins – AA – Lisin
Brash/ Boyle/ Arnason/ Voros/ Byers
Kaberle – Redden
Staal – Girardi
2 rookies
White – 7th D man
Yup, Redden and Rozsival are awful. The Rangers have no shot at a Cup with them on the team.
3.3 million for Morris after a 20 point season …. HOLY CRAP !!!!
Good luck with that Boston… and we all thought Rozy was overpaid
Morris @ 3.3 is way better then 5 million for Rozi.
Somerset…your trades are awful…you must be doing this get everyone to acknowledge you.
we should sign bergeron, boucher, or siendeberg for PP. WAIVE/trade Redden. Sign Gauhtier.
D of
Staal- Roszival
Girardi- Gauhtier
Boucher/Bergeron/or Sidenberg- Potter
7th- Gilroy, Heinkenen or Del Zotto
not bad….
Morris for that price. Eh. Another brilliant trade by Slats.
Well Mr. Mouth , no need to worry about Gaborik. I’d say he’s hitting at least 50 goals. Hes gonna have plenty of ice time under Torts and his offensive touch is gonna be infectious.
Gaborik is a scoring machine and needs to play all 82 games to get people to stop bugging him about injuries. Eric Lindros was as fragile as they come and he played all 82 for us one year.
So the Blackhawks didn’t give Hossa a physical before signing him, but knew about his shoulder problem anyhow.
http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/blog/puck_daddy/post/Blackhawks-didn-t-give-Hossa-physical-before-con?urn=nhl,178601
Morris for 3.3 a year is a steal. He played very well for us last season, although it was a short time,I liked him and hoped he would resigned.
Some Gm ’s have the Midas touch,
Sather has the “Minus” touch.
His trades and moves turn to turds.
We’ll see how many games Gaborik plays and how many goals he scores.
Just remember the abuse and pounding Jagr got as a ranger, do you actually think Gaborik can take the same abuse?
He’ll be another Zherdev , great in space but in a crowd he’ll disappear.
Just another solid defender lost to Wade Reddens contract… oh well…
Something must be brewing, I though Morris would return.
Some of you need to clean up your act.
Great job Carp…....
I just watched top 10 plays for Panthers and Keith Ballard was 3 of them—3 monster hits.
Wouldn’t mind if we packaged Zherdev and Rozsival/Redden for Ballard.
Morris is overrated. Absolutely nothing special, I don’t know why he keeps getting high salaries.
game 4 from the 2008 playoffs against the devils on NHL network right now.
Dude ….
Stop posting as me its getting annoying …. i dont use that many commas when i write something.
I deleted his last fraud post, somerset.
new post.
After that Morris signing im getting the feeling Savard isn’t going to be in a Boston uniform next season. They HAVE to resign Kessel. 36 goals at 21 years old I mean come on. Savards a decade older then him. Boston has no cap as of now.
gaborik dubinsky avery
kotalik drury callahan

i think they should sign kessel instead of dubi and zherdev

Worthless for the brobdingnagian recall, but I’m adoring the new Zune, and hope this, as healed as the excellent reviews some additional grouping mortal scrawled, will meliorate you terminate if it’s the honourable pick for you.
Wow, amazing blog layout! How long have you been blogging for? you made blogging look easy. The overall look of your web site is great, as well as the content!
Thanks for making me to acquire new concepts about desktops. I also have belief that one of the best ways to maintain your notebook in leading condition is with a hard plastic material case, or maybe shell, that matches over the top of your computer. A lot of these protective gear will be model distinct since they are manufactured to fit perfectly over the natural covering. You can buy them directly from the vendor, or through third party sources if they are for your laptop computer, however not all laptop could have a shell on the market. All over again, thanks for your tips.
One thing I’d prefer to comment on is that weightloss routine fast can be achieved by the appropriate diet and exercise. People’s size not merely affects the look, but also the actual quality of life. Self-esteem, despression symptoms, health risks, along with physical skills are disturbed in weight gain. It is possible to just make everything right and at the same time having a gain. If this happens, a medical problem may be the perpetrator. While a lot food rather than enough work out are usually to blame, common health conditions and widely used prescriptions could greatly increase size. Thanks alot : ) for your post in this article gywl59.
Excellent information once again. Thanks a lot:)
