Gotta admire the stones on that kid.
Love him. Really don’t want to see him go.
Shoulda told him to stay on his feet morehi!
will you guys stop with Dustin Brown?
That’s fantasy land.
got carped of course
repost:
this blows
that tweet by gross about duby really kicks assen. love his attitude. keep workin doobs. u just know hes gonna break out sooner or later.
If Parise is from Minny, why wouldn’t he play in Minny? NYR is building something special. He is an American. Why play on a team of soft Euros, when he can play with North Americans in NY?
My $1mil is on the New York Rangers.
Detroit? Have you ever been there?
6 goals and a ton of confidence.
This howsons.
All these new posts are making me feel like something exciting is happening.
we need another Vet on forward and on D.
Last year the likes of Steps, AA, McD looked so over matched and unprepared for Playoff Hockey
They only got some 5 games playoff experience last year, and then add the likes of Mitchell, MDZ, and Hagelin.
We are sooo young
Parise played for Torts and with Callahan in Olympics, and probably other international events, I’m guessing.
Duby and im pretty confident that at 930 tonight you will not have scored.
i want nash!!!!!!!!!!! damnit,. i want malkin!!!! giv me datsyuk or give me death!
Manny, we aim to excite.
WELLMAN!!!!!!
hahaha Lev!
haha good one lev
parise will be in minny
bring in gaustad
Grab, you hurt my feelings giving Andrew credit … when the whole interview is right up there on top.
:)
Dubinsky will score 50 points in the last 22 games! about half of those points will come with his butt facing the net and the other half while he’s sliding on his butt…it’ll be a butt-rrefic finish for Dubi!
Wicky, question … how are you?
Still looks to me like we’re standing pat. Only 1 trade before 12PM.
carp
Tappen, I mean WELL…MAN!!!
wllman!!!! hells yea wick! stanley here we come!!
Why play on a team of soft Euros, when he can play with North Americans in NY?
***
Looking at their current roster, only Backstrom and Koivu are their Euros.
Instead go to Detroit that’s got Datsyuk, Franzen, Zetterberg, Kronwall, Hudler, Filppula, Lidstrom, etc…
yeah, Detroit is a slum, but they still pack the stadium and they are always in contention … Detroit has no problem getting the guys they want
Yeah, Parise is from Minn, but why would he want to play for the Wild?? they arent the North Stars (if that was even the team he rooted for as a kid). The Wild sucks !!
Put it this way, If we win the Cup or go to the Finals at least … we stand a decent chance of competing with the Red Wings for his services
If we “fizzle out” in anyway from our inexperience this year … its Parise to Detroit no questions asked
How were the Rangers not in on the Kurtis Foster trade?

carp, should be the new Carcillo. THAT PIECE OF HOWSON!!!!
Just woke up & my 1st post is Carped.
IS HE HERE YET ?
wicky, ur still sick? ive had this damn flu/virus/ hybrid thing for about 2 weeks straight. even had infection in my left eye for a few ays. it closed up, gave me migraines too. im just slowly getting over it. never had anything like tht happen to my eye though. strange
Red Wings: Europansies who never win anything.
tweet from giagnome..
John Giannone ? @jaygeemsg Reply Retweet Favorite · Open
FYI on Dubinsky’s “I’ll be a Ranger at 3:01” quote-paperwork process sometimes runs past 3 pm so deals are often announced later. Just sayin
Yea and Detroit is a terrible hockey town…
We sure have a lot of those, tomg. Carcillo, clarke, cooke … maybe even sestito and rinaldo.
grabby
yep, still fighting it…getting better
carp should be the new carcillo??? wtf tomg? not very nice
Wow, Dubi is going to stuff Giannone into a locker or give him a swirlie if he’s still on the team for that tweet.
glad the Nash thing won’t happen but I’m definitely not looking forward to 22 more games of Dubinsky mediocrity
also, can we drop Wolski from the Twitter feed since he’s now a Florida Panther
forgot that this is a 7:30 start tonight. dammit.
Howson and Snow are the worst two GMs in the league. They both have Snow in their last names. That must be it.
refresh, refresh, refresh !!!
Worst trade deadline ever?
half the league is from Ontario. I don’t see players lining up to play in Toronto and Ottawa…
All that matters is the money!!!!
ha. John Giannone knows that Dubi’s out the door
im sorry carp. im sick as a dog and am stoned on this realy awesome prescription cough syrup. its making me thirsty though
CTB, because Foster is pretty much one of the worst defensive players I have ever seen. It’s like Phil Housley, plus 6 inches and 50 pounds, but minus 1000 points.
seriously, what are the tradecentre people gonna talk about if there is 1 trade from now to 3pm ??
Theyve already exhausted all the “filler” conversation and there is still 3 hours to go
Carp, I liked your use of the word howson as a verb better last night. He “howsoned” the deal is much better than “this howsons”. Can we establish that as the proper use of the word in Carpian dialect?
doodie, I know that, but look at where the guy was born!
gia-numbnuts is on my carchillo list now. h better watch out i dont go to ny just to cough and spread my tuberculosis and brown and greenish red smokers cough loogie all over him
rangers get some depth on defense
@TSNBobMcKenzie NYR trade 2012 2nd round pick and 2013 condition pick to DET for Brad Stuart #TradeCentre
Trade for Wolski! Kid’s got talent! :)
Kurtis Foster born where ????
GrabbY,
I know exactly what your talking about. 23 years ago I had gotten a really bad cold that turned into bronchial pneumonia and I was given a prescription for cough medicine with codeine in it, best cough medicine I ever had, didn’t feel a thing :-)
If Dubinsky stays, I’ll make a friendly posters bet that he doubles his goal total in the final 22.
fake trades are annoying…
HOW (do you feel) SON ?
i like “howsoned” also carp. very funny. we have to make even more funny name substitutions.
Grab, I’m jealous about the cough syrup high … but not the rest. feel better.
tomg- this isnt codene though. i had that beore too. this iscalled tussinex. its byfuglien incredible
CTB, I think that would be a reason to stay away.
As for the fake trade, you have to make them plausible for people to be fooled.
Mason Raymond wouldnt be a bad depth move. He does pretty well on the PP, and when you consider John Mitchell gets PP time for us … he could be a good pickup
I’m glad they haven’t made any fringe moves. There really does not seem to be anyone available that would make a considerable difference on this team, at least not for a reasonable price. Maybe a slight upgrade in talent but then a regular has to come out of the line up and the chemistry that everyone was so concerned with Nash impacting, is still affected, all for a slight upgrade. If they don’t bring in a game changer, I prefer they stand pat.
nice try, I got McKezie’s tweet page minimized and there is no mention of a ranger trade, we’ve been HOWSONED!!!
I noticed that some of you had made the observation that Rangers might be trying for Iginla…and then voicing apprehensions over it.
The worriers might well be right in that he has slipped more than a peg or two…but on the other hand, he just might have enough personal pride and desire to show that he still can handle the scene. If it is true then just relax and let it happen. The worse that can occur is that he cannot handle this style, and it will show. If so, it doesn’t take much genius to adjust to that situation by selective spotting.
Hate this waiting! Hi Carp! ;-) I’m lurking today.
thanks carp. i’d feel better if we got nash though. cmon slattipuss, trade miller duby and erixon anda 1st. how can that not b enough? thro in a few cubans.
how is there a man named Clitsome
can we get a 2nd trade today already geez

one word, HOWSON.
Geez, we are talking cough medicine on a trade day? :-)
That tussionex ( not tussinex) can really howson you, Mike. It contains hydrocodone.
I was going to ask someone to text me if anything happens since I’m busy, but it looks like there will be no need. It looks dead, eh…
Wow this really is the worst deadline ever. I thought last year was bad but this is insane. Never wasting another 7 days of my life looking forward to this thing again
fran- high five comin your way big guy!! air five buddy
Nash = Superstar
no…we don’t want any superstars on our team! we want to keep our potential… in our case “crane in the sky is better than a rabbit in hand” or however you say it
Question: If Nash were a UFA after this year asking for a 6 year deal, whats the max cap hit you’d be cool with?
Carp & CT,
I meany DETROIT has a lotta Euros. And I never called them Europansies. I have a LOT of respect for that team. I have been to MANY games at the Joe. I am just saying that the City is dying. Sadly. NY is a much better place. Away from the hockey team, Detroit has NOTHING to offer Parise. Let’s see how this goes down.
Lev: this is what happens when all but 2 Western Confernce teams consider themselves out of the playoff race.
Correction: DON’T consider themselves out of the playoff race.
Ok headz, I’m in Grabby’s zone still recuperating from my back surgery ;-) So I may be off base here, but am I the only one who finds Kurtis Foster’s birth place a bit ironic ???

GRABBY,
now I know how you feel. I was in a car accident a little over a year ago and was on Percocets, 10mg/325 for a while and they are extremely addictive and dangerous. I’m happy to say though I am now off of that stuff.
Parise will have half the year (when the weather is better anyway) to spend his many millions of dollars when he’s not playing hockey. But for the part of the year where he is playing, I couldn’t imagine passing up the chance to play on a team that already is a perennial contender over one that may or may not be.
A bad of of trades is better than a good day on Tussionex.
Im surprised columbus isnt dealing yet…, howson publicly said that he will blow the entire team up
Parise is going to cost 2 boats loads…...and a dump truck.
i know it has vicodin in it ilb. my dad has a ton of medical books and a book on all types of pills and meds. “the pill book” i think. i recently read them. some pretty interesting stuff in those dr reference books. read a physicians medical refernce guide or whatever theyre called.
Ott just said “loved it here” in Dallas on TSN. Does he know something?
hank for harvey boo-lin
“Lev February 27th, 2012 at 12:20 pm

I think Columbus fans want to blow Howson up.
tomg …
I hear ya about the Percs. I’m getting my wisdom teeth out tomorrow and I’m not looking forward to taking them for the pain
cw, I know. I was just joking. Somebody called somebody a Europansy last year and we went off about all the great Europansies like Chara and Datsyuk and Malkin, etc … and in the past, Samuelsson and Kasparaitis. And then we carried into the NBA, even, with Nowitski. It became a running joke. “Europansies.”
I was in Detroit with the Yankees during the playoffs. God, it’s awful.
Krisy! Hi! How are things in your hemisphere?
tomg, would that be “howson Howson up?”
Parise will be hanging oot at the Mall of America trying to get recognized.
I think they want to blow their owner up for not firing Howson.
gabby and richards for nash
Nash isn’t a superstar anymore
Did Howser make the trade that Tod was talking about for weeks, yet?
er…Rod, I mean…
YYYAAAAWWWWWNNNNN!!!!!!
Grabby, want to sell me some cough medicine ?
im howson’ed yall. holy canolis. be back after a nap. i lov u all. be safe friends. and we will kick assen with thi team we already have if we dont make any trades. i love this team. even emmy and straalsy

just be careful, you can easily become an addict on those things. I can imagined how heroin addicts feel like when getting off those prescription drugs, very dangerous.
motown, money, murder, madness
ROD=EKLUND!!! who knows, maybe he is eklund considering eklund is a flyer fan, just truing to mess with ranger fans :-).
i take a few percs whenever i think i might get a headache…works every time….no headache
Honestly, if EVERY team “stays pat”, the I think we are in good shape for the playoffs.
The main reason (at least I do), get nervous that we need to make a move is from the “keeping up with the Joneses” effect.
Boston being rumored IN on Ott, Brown, etc
Van being rumored being IN on Brown, Ott, etc
Pitt looking dangerous lately with 5-6-7-8 goal games
LA getting Carter (dont think the playoffs still anyway)
Really, as long as Crosby stays out, we’re fine … Crosby comes back , then we dont match up to them this year
If Lloyd Braun said that Nash isn’t a superstar anymore than it must be so!
right…
Can I make fake trades?
Blech…I wonder if it is one deal holding up the domino effect..who or what could it be?
my guess rangers bring in campoli as de depth
Name the movie:
Sinclair: Man, if we get outta this thing, I want you to come to the States. I’ll show you some stuff that you’ll never believe.
Vodovsky: No way, my friend. I’m told in the States they shoot Communists in the streets.
Sinclair: Hell, man. In Detroit, my hometown, they shoot EVERYBODY in the streets!
wait, are we talking Dustin Brown, still?
tony, you can have a couple shots off this badboy. i’ll send it in the mail with some pizza rolls.
I love fake trades
Is that the real Rex Ryan of the two-time defending and future Super Bowl Champions?
Breaking News: Trade Deadline Day has been pushed back another week to give those on-the-bubble teams time to fall from playoff contention.
We now return to our regularly scheduled programme.
Al Montoya is available!!! Hold the phones. Stop the presses!
More precisely, Carp, the Europansy meme was borne out of one of our most popular first-time-long-timers, VinceA, and his open disgust at the franchise altering event that was the Werek/Lindberg trade.
9 May is now known as VinceA Day on RR and the first anniversary will feature a range of celebrations and/or parades to mark the prestigious occasion.
i want johnny odouya….greatest name in the game
Hey guys, hearing some really intriguing rumors, some involving the Rangers, but you know I’m not going to say a word. Let’s just say my sources have told me what’s happening before 3:00 and its incredibly interesting. I’ll let you all in on it after its officially announced.

RE: Donnie Maloney: I exaggerated a little (Grand Canyon was the

1-0, before getting a severe comeuppance in four straight.

Carp did you get my email?
@therealglensather rangers trade erixon, brandon “3:01” dubinsky and a 3rd rounder to CBJ for rck nash.
the beatles just traded ringo starr to the who for keith moon…..contingent on moon passing a physical
commodore to tampa from detoit
12:36 p.m. ET – The Columbus Blue Jackets could be busy later. According to Aaron Portzline, senior advisor Craig Patrick says they have “more than 15” offers, but “we don’t like any of them yet.”
Are any for Rick Nash? No one’s talking. Not even Nash, who won’t speak to media today (unless he traded, I guess).
“Why the hell would Garth Snow not try to trade Nabokov?”
DIDN’T NABOKOV REBUKE THE ISLES WHEN THEY CLAIMED HIM? Now he is love with the place? I heard he wants a NTC. Weird.
Rangers gotta hope that the Pens are to their drive, what
the Saints were to the Giants’, which is to say, absent.
Someone suggested that Nash was not so far from Malkin
in talent the other day. I agree. Until Geno goes to that
other planet where he plays hockey from time to time.
A planet he lives on all by himself.
the fake rangers trades are pretty stupid when the twitter widget is above..

no! thats what makes fake trades unique! even with the widget, after reading the fake trade people scroll up to check the widget! hilarious!
Who will be Plan C this time when the Rangers don’t get the Devil?
WHERE’S MIAMI,
It’s becoming amateur hour with the fake trades, maybe adolescence to.
Hahaha. Brandon “3:01” Dubinsky.
Sorry, Staal, my mailbox is full from another commenter.
LOL! Poor Commodore. His year has just been ruined.
Alyonka Larionov has really ugly knees!
alyonka larionov much hotter than k. tappen
The widget doesn’t work for everyone, “supposively”
it would be somewhat satisfying if the dubinsky trade was announced at 3:02 .
I don’t get why the Sabres would move Roy when he still has a year left. I would think the asking price will be too high, just like anyone else worth getting.
So the Isles are shopping Montoya and Nabby? Nobody wants Dee-Pee?
cccp=brooklyn pimp…..you wouldnt see her knees if ya know what i mean
The Lightning have like 400 extra picks now. Talk about rebuilding around your star.
mike commodore 64 just traded for fiona apple 2e
I’m right here, reading all the amateur-hour.
You clowns are going to be sorry when all that’s announced at 3PM is that the Rangers have recalled Avery.
isles should trade Nino Niederreiter while he still has some value. 5th overall pick. 39 games, one goal, minus-19.
avery for nash talks heating up….deal is eminent and imminent
Come on Carp! I had 301 possible trades that will go down today!
eddie eddie eddie
word!! aha aha i like her on her knees… cleaning that is :)
Rangers should target either Greg Zanon or Mike Lundin from Wild for a depth defenseman.
Sometimes it is all that I can do not to laugh aloud, when I hear comments when Tortorella ( and some
of the Bonesters also) make a statement like ” the Rangers play this game the way it outta be played….”
(strangled laugh here), and the inevitable thought pops up, (Does that include their PP technique) you know the passpasspasspassass for ever waiting for the magic moment….and the obvious following situation where every now and then the magic moment arrives, ...........and suddenly they are so surprised that they miss it. Oh sure they now and then seize it, and they succeed just often enough to make them think that it’s “the right way!” And one must also not neglect the very very annoying practices wherein many of these extra long passes go directly past all eligible receivers and land right on the an opponent’s stick blade and then the Lundqvist tremors begin.
You disbelieve me? Watch for it next time and see how often those passes go astray.
i wonder had pat burns lived, would he want dubi?
Sam Carchidi ? @BroadStBull
Flyers send Wellwood to minors. Clearing room?
according to McKenzie, the stars are the ones holding up the trade action because allot of teams are trying to trade for Ott but Dallas asking price is high.
cccp – my pipe needs cleaning…is she available?
“Rangers should target either Greg Zanon or Mike Lundin from Wild for a depth defenseman.”
Greg Zanon = Stanley Cup
Wonder if Sauer Power is coming back anytime soon?
TSN blonde = Stanley Cup
mel ott hit 511 homeruns…..trade for him
Carl Hagelin is a blonde.
geez wake me up when something relevant happens
So Brodeur says Lundqvist should get the Vezina
duh
any crosby updates?
If NYR gets a d-man, then that should answer whether Sour Power is coming back.
you know it’s a brutally slow deadline when the words “buzz” and “Oduya” appear in the same sentence
Two (2) Hours.
NHLN discussing 2014 potential Olympic rosters.
blah blah blah
tom gilbert from oilers to minn for nick shultz. both under contract next year. best deal of the day.
better be more then that
my sources tell me this is the worst deadline days since marcel dionne was traded to the rangers for bob carpenter and tom laidlaw.
Is Patrick Kane available?
who from where to where for who?
Sauer can’t even handle ice in his drinks yet…I don’t expect to see him at all. DAMN shame.
lookout, exciting trade between edmonton and minnesota…
rumour has it there will be another trade and a draft pick will be involved
Why does Fatty Brodeur talk about the Rangers so much … is he a fan ??
zipay
hearing rumor brad stuart to rangers for picks unconfirmed. here we go
brad gilbert traded for sgt schultz
brad stuart? rather have bickel and stralman
why would Detroit trade Stuart ?? must be because of the economy ?? or the shooting in the Detroit streets finally got to Brad
rather have stuart than stralman…but not bickel
The Winnipeg Jets claimed defenceman Grant Clitsome off waivers from the Columbus Blue Jackets on Monday
heh heh heh hehehe clitsome
I am with Wick:
Bickel, Stuart, Strahlman.
ya maybe the more i think about stuart would be a good pickup.. why would the wings trade 2 D today?
Stuart with 139 hits on the season, would make him 2nd on the Rangers D … crease clearer ??
manny
vibin’
made that joke an hour ago, CCCP
Wings clearing cap room for Nash?
stuart is a ufa end of the year
I think
CCCPhas been hijacked by someone else.Detroit is flipping those picks for Suter or Weber … then Parise in the off-season !! ha
brad stuart is much better player then bickel or stralman or emminger. not even close….....
john stuart mill for adam smith
you people who want Anton Stralman and Stu Bickel over anybody should probably watch some other teams
stuart last year of a 4 yr deal for 15 mil. tons of playoff experince with wings def upgrade over bickel
Stuart would be a good pickup. pair him with Stralman on the 3rd pair and move Staal up to the top 4…
rex ryan, bobby ryan, and ryan duren for jimmy howard, moe howard, and elston howard
yup.. Rangers D has been so bad this year
lloyd
you should go sell more computers in the garage
ericcson is hurt for detroit, doubt they would trade stuart even though he is a UFA. ericsson out for at least 4 weeks.
Well, maybe not on the Suter/Weber front. I forgot Detroit got Quincey back a few days ago.
Quincey in … Stuart/Commodore out
Detroit GM on NHLN saying zero about moving Stuart.
stu bickel is a norris candidate
I, like Torts, really like Bickel. What can I say. It’s more his attitude than his play. I know that sounds ridiculous but I like having the big guy out there to stick up for people.
there is no doubt the red wings are going to sign sutter next year to replace Nicklas Lidstrom who is retiring.
Garrioch just shot down the rumor says its not happening
bickel would beat up norris
is the widget not working for everybody, or just some? anybody?
yeah, other teams all have Norris candidates on their third pair.
don’t get why they’d move two veteran D-men…
Widget not working for me.
Don’t know why Det would trade Stuart. Makes no sense unless it’s for cap room.
mine is funnier, Lloyd ;)
again erricson fractured his wrist the other day. they are not going to trade Stuart who can play big time.
The widget is working for me 98% of the time. What I would suggest to people is to open another window/tab and keep it on the RR homepage. That way you have the widget in one tab/window and the chat in another. I know it’s a lot of work but with only 2 hours to go…........

carp – third pair is only 2 away from top pair….not like a hundred away
yeah Zipay now says Stuart to NYR isn’t happening
I guess it’s time to get Captain Wonky Groin out of the Player Widget.
avery for zetterberg, datsyuk, and brad stuart
bryan allen stay at home d man for carolina. over 30. not a ranger fit…...
Carp, can you temporarily ban people today if they post a fake trade….prust sayin
Stuart would never be traded to the Rangers, especially just for picks. Detroit is going for it and that means keeping Stuart, or at the very least, getting a roster player in return.
Rob, I like the fake trades. It’s fun to see people get upset about them.
lightning acquire commodore…thought he was retired…
avery talks heating up with vancouver…....avery for the sundin brothers
doodie, but for those who are giving quick looks while doing work, its tough….i almost choked on my fried rice
NHLN has Jaroslav Spacek as a definite guy that will be moved soon.
Wow this really is the worst deadline ever.
rob c – this i just heard isn’t fake…....mcd, mdz, dubi, and step for gomez…..the cup is ours
Lightning get Commodore to replace Kubina.
best deadline since the one that yielded nathan lafayette for ian lapierrere
Carp, can we update the Waseka feeds? Remove Wolski from players; add Jeff Marek (@jeffmarek) to reporters.
Schultz traded for Gilbert. Another for the “who cares” category.
doodie
u been lobbying jeff marek for months. aint happening
I think last years deadline was just as bad. Only difference is, Brad Richards was the big guy everyone thought was going to get traded. Rick Nash is this years guy.
bobby holik just traded his cranium for a head to be named later
It’s been sporadic. I like Marek, a lot.
eddie, he just cleared a ton of cap space.
::rimshot::
Pierre McG – Says one reason Minnesota brought in Gilbert was he is very tight with Ryan Suter, they used to be teammates and believes he will be used to try to recruit Suter in the offseason…..interesting.
widget thing is hot and cold
I haven’t a clue who Tom Schultz and Bryan Allen are
dubi is beside himself with nervous energy…4 fingers in his nose…2 are stuck
Bad deadline is good for us.
doodie – :)
Tom Gilbert, Nick Schultz
who are these people
no shot at Marek being in there.

I’m glad Dubinski may be sweating this one out.. not that I dislike him. BUT , I as well as the Ranger honcho’s feel that he can play better.. he may even benefit from a move get away from NYC and the distractions..
Carp, seriously? Why not?
Except last year Orr, we got CABER!
Isn’t Nick Schultz the reason why everyone wants no touch icing? Broke his leg chasing a puck. Unless it’s another Wild d-man.
where our vet d man already. bickel and eminger and stralman need an upgrade
deb placey is the third man in….just got interesting
I got my money on Deb Placey to win a fight between the 3 of them. always bet on the brunettes … they fight dirty
Nick schultz, the face of the wild according to the players wasnt even told he was traded. Talking to reporters he had tears in his eyes and said “this is all that i know”.... Pretty classless by minnesota here
I don’t like him or his tweets. too much personal crap. too many retweets and replies. He’d jam up the whole widget with his asinine stuff.
eric – i like bickel…..future allstar
See … Minny is classless …. Parise to Detroit in the Off-season
Lev, where did you see that. Brutal.
i think its time to take Wolski off the widget feed… no?
pierre mcguire is a spectacular idiot. he sucks knowledge and logic from nearly any conversation he’s involved in—and i only add “virtually,” because i assume that occasionally the man speaks to himself.
NHLN had that same story on Schultz…....bush league.
Miami, where does how Minnesota handled the Schultz trade rate on the bush-league scale, with 1 being the 80’s Oilers and 10 being the present day New York Rangers?
It was Kurtis Foster who broke his leg, Orr. Ex-Wild and now current Wild again.
carp – pierre is great….i like knowing what elementary school these guys played for
Nick Schultz is the face of the Minnesota Wild?
dear god
actually, to clarify, Michael Russo, Wild beat writer, said Wild GM Chuck Fletcher told Schultz after practice. players found out about it via media/oilers tweet
Carp it was tweeted by Russo and retweeted by spector and pat leonard. Im on my iphone so idk how to post that here. Its horrible…
ec is the new face of the wild
In other news, the Rangers better bring it to the Debbies tonight. The last loss was annoying and with Hank in the net, there can be no excuse for a flacid start.
LETS GO RANGERS.
brandon prust is the face of the nyr.
I thought Gaborik was the face of the Wild?
Carp, fair enough. I’ve never actually looked at his Twitter. I don’t have one and my only access is what we get through the widget. If you say his Twitter is bad, I’ll take your word for it.
But I still really like the guy. Really knows his stuff.
NHLN just corrected the Schultz debacle.
dudley said “flacid”
haha, price for PAP is a 1st rounder and a prospect.
HAHAHA. I love the Islanders. Pure comedy every year.
Oh, right, Foster! My mistake!
Pretty pathetic by the Wild to do that to Schultz. Although, I don’t think the Wild were expecting the Oilers to tweet the trade before they talked to him.
so if Kurtis Foster breaks his leg chasing down an icing, would you consider that “being carp’d” ??
when you take into consideration his birthplace and all of course??
joe m hoping for some good looking young players via trades…hopefully with groin pulls
It’s true Doodie – Marek is just as likely to tweet about a Journey song as he is to tweet about hockey.
tradebreakers.. keith aulie to tampa for who knows what.
tor trades keith aulie to tampa. aulie leafs prospect played some nhl games
It seems like Gms are doing a lot of groin pulling today.
::rimshot::
A 1st rounder and prospect for a guy that has 58 points in 62 games seems aboot right when you think aboot what lesser players have been traded for.
I wont be surprised if a team takes a chance on him.
sam ; looks like the rangers stayed pat
joe m – yeah they sure did, didnt they
AHL deals are now considered “breaking news”.... man, its so lame today
THIS JUST IN … Jason Krog traded for Hugh Jessiman !!
orr—
pap is a UFA and slow, and without taveres he’s a 30 point player.
hitchcock and babcock looking to swap cocks…..
carter ashton back to toronto
Kevin Weekes thinks Marek needs to tweet more about hockey.
doodie – i am setting you up like gomez to jagr
Huge specimen for Pavel Brendl
How’s howson doing with that Nash deal?
Erik Christensen still doesn’t have a point in the 11 games he’s played for Minnesota
Carter Ashton. I like him a lot as a prospect. He was near Kreider on my draft board in 2009.
what did weeks eat for breakfast?
I dunno, Carp. Ask iBob…LOL
dubi is beside himself with nervous energy…4 fingers in his nose…2 are stuck
kathryn tappen and alyonka larionov have dropped the gloves in the ladies room….
carp – pierre is great….i like knowing what elementary school these guys played for
LMOA – guys in my row asking me what my problem is…..
carp
Whatever happened to Jay Greenberg?
lloyd – those are just stats…they mean nothing….ec is the face of that organ eye zation
even the trades are boring.
He was sent packing by the Post. Awful.
to borrow from George Costanza, I think there’s a pretty good chance Erik Christensen will never register another point in the NHL.
shore ranger – not too loud, manny like quality over quantity
Dubi ‘3:01’ – is that like John 3:16?
I asked him, NYR. He said it’s a done deal … to the NYR. DONE.
dubinsky is averaging 1.2 goals per month. or around 800,000 per goal.
chemistry!
aulie traded for jimmy carter ashton kutcher…....i ber demi moore’s head explodeds upon hearing this
$4.8 million per game-winning goal.
Fchamps, teams that are getting low picks in the draft could still trade for him, regardless.
You have to give PAP some credit. Tavares has really helped him, but it’s not like he’s been completely useless. He’s been pretty damn good for the Isles. I wont be surprised if a team gives the Isles what they want.
Unless it’s a top prospect. Then it’s too much. If it’s a first rounder, and an average prospect, then I can see it happening.
Tyler Kennedy is Wild of the face.
carp – my sources are still saying avery for nash…holdup is with slats…he wants tootin too
Jay Greenberg was the man! don’t read com-post much anymore, but he could write a great story.
He makes exactly $700,000 per goal. Math isn’t that tough.
Isn’t Carter Ashton the guy everyone whined aboot when NYR didn’t draft him? He was traded for an AHL goalie. LOL!
brad marchand’s nose on the trading block….dubi hopes the rangers pick it up
come on sather….add a depth d-man
If you think Carter Ashton was happy to get drafted by the Bolts, well, his face says it all…
http://www.nhl.com/ice/player.htm?id=8475154#&navid=nhl-keymatch
An AHL aulie, Orr.
Eddie – You sure Dubi doesn’t want to pick it first?
aulie plays d not goalie.
orr…
Hope somebody hid Slats’ cell phone…
LW! e3! you guys are keeping me sane on a dreadfully dull day.
Nice pic, ORR. Is that Blue Steel or Magnum?
winnik perhaps to sharks from avs
this is about as exciting as NFL trading deadline day. (if they have one.)
Isn’t there a aulie named Goalie? I mean, a goalie named Aulie?
this deadline is snoozeville…..
sharks having a lindy ruff go of it lately
Dubi traded for a player never to be named to the Hudson Bay Tribe of the North Canadian Knee-Hockey Association.
my brutha from anutha – mza for nash
Bring in Murray from the Sharks for Erixon! monster hits, crease clearing Dman
pierre lebrun
winnik and tj galiardi to sharks from avs
I rearranged my whole workday so I could be next to the NHL network to hear the news of the day…I won’t do that again.
dubi would lose his arm up marchand’s nose…..
MZA, MIA, MLK, MCD, MZD for two vowels and a semi-colon
bring back messier part III
Avs have some good younger offense – trade strength (Rangers’ young D) for strength (Avs’ young O)
holy carcillo!!!
over 350 posts over a
sound of crickets
trade deadline day
ryan ted nugent nicky hopkins would look good on broadway
Why do so many out here want a defenseman? Don’t you know that Torts, in the playoffs, plays only 4, or maybe 5? We don need no stinkin defenseman. Does anyone remember how awful McCabe was? And all you Dubi bashers will have egg on your faces after we win the CUP with Dubi being a big part of it.
Garrison, or nothing for the NYR.
Paulsson to the Canucks…
sami pahlson to canucks
would have been nice depth forward for rangers
...thought Glen might bite on that one.
matt gilroy traded from tampa to ottawa for brian lee
CABER!
i mentioned this yesterday…..the rangers could go to a trap inverse….....by trading hank for nabokov….they could ten trade mdz, mcd, stall, girardi, strawman, and bickel for nash and play 5 forwards and a goalie…...slats would be a trailblazer
Boring deadline.
RANGERS ALL OVER RICK NASH AGAIN!!!!!
NYR still pushing for Nash, according to Dreger. Nash pushing as well.
PUSH!!
NHLN just had NYR and now Rick Nash pushing to get deal done. Added may be too late but both sides still trying.
dreger said nash still in play for one team likely rangers both rangers and nash both pushing for a deal
bruce lee and brandon lee are both dead….brian lee best lee available
get it done.
...wow. I am telling you, NASH’s trade value is not that high with that deal. The NYR are gonna get him for peanuts if they do get him at all.
caber!!!!!
LMAO@ “PUSH”! What is it, a trade center or a delivery room? :-)
NASH IS COMING!!!????
:56 Minutes to get that done. In the words of Bill Cosby: “Zuff wuff wiff wuff Push Push”
Man, I hate Pierre’s face. Such a smug blotchy dorky face!
I hate this I hate this I hate this …
arm pitt, cherry pitt, brad pitt, for pierre’s shiny noodle
Nash needs Lamaze.
better then 50% chance nash gets moved
ooooooweeeee – what’s up with that?
NASH NOISE!!! UGH!!!
Nash now 50% to get dealt. Who is doing this math?! and what equations are they using?!
Gillie :(
puff…push…puff…push
Great move by Canucks to get Paulsson…
They’re just saying Nash is in play because today has been so mind-numblingly boring they’re desperate for people to continue to pay attention.
Nash ain’t goin’ anywhere. They don’t HAVE to trade him today.
mcd, mdz, step, AA, dubi, kreider, thomas, McI, carl from die hard, hank, beer on, cally, and bickel for nash….folks…nash is that good
I hope that TSN is saying this just to keep viewers…
I guess SJ got out of Nash sweeps with the pickup of Galiardi and Winnik??
Our old pal Gilroy to Ottawa.
Gilroy in OTT. The legend continues…
no mcdonut. mdz, kredier in the nash affair.
tjmiller, erixon, dubi, and a pick. .that is some good talent going back…....
CW: You weren’t supposed to acknowledge that possibility outloud.
Somebody had just suggested to me that Craig Patrick might be holding things up … in other words, that there was still stuff going on with Columbus re: Nash. Hadn’t had time to confirm, but now this is out on TSN.
Dubi 3:01 – Let us pray…
all this push push push has me thinking PAP smear trade
Could the Blue Jackets be in any worse bargaining position? Player wants out. Only ONE team is interested. Ouch.
oduya to blackhawks
Oduya to Chicago.
O-Do-Ya goes to the Hawks
D,
Which one? I have been blabbing all day?!?
How’s that 3:01 looking?
53 minutes.
TSN – “they are quintupling up”...that is a lot of up
dubi on pins and needles
How’s that Kovalchuk trade looking for Atlanta?
My guess is only NYR is in on Nash and its seems Nash only wants to come here.
Dubi 3:01, Erixon, and a 1st
Anybody have a link to watch/listen to trade coverage?
odouya – i love saying that name
Craig Patrick witholding the Nash Stash awaiting for Slats’ smoke to clear
So funny. It’s 50/50 that anyone gets traded for the right offer. That’s meaningless. And I agree, Dreger wants everyone to watch. Then again, Carp hasn’t posted in awhile, perhaps he is digging.
Who is quintupling up? what does that mean?
or eating pizza.
impossible to get on tsn
mike palmenteer traded for tony esposito
dubi, miller(good young talent, not elite talent), erixon, and a #1… that is a fair deal…
for nash and a 2nd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sather has columbus over a barrell, do not trade 21,27, 4, or Kreider….............
x : y X 94/01 – 3:01 = nash
main rivals today no moves
bruins
pens i dont count phil they got kubina and grossman last week
devs zidlicky
odouya – i love saying that name
Oh, do ya?
(I know, I loved that joke when someone else made it above)
wow, Matt Giroy traded to Ottawa for Brian Lee.
I said it all along: NASH WILL BE TRADED FOR RELATIVELY LOW RETURN. Sounds to me like Sather is bidding against himself right now. Nash must be the GM on the other end.
... but I did a little digging and heard that it’s still a possibility. I can’t imagine they’ll cave in.
meant Gilroy
Carp, is it a Boboli?
dubi’s toes are now up his nose…he is going nutz
You could watch the TSN feed on NHL.com
http://www.nhl.com/ice/eventhome.htm?location=/deadline/2012/experience
dreger tweeting about nash now.. only saying that because the widget is out for me again
MZA and a conditional 3rd. Condition is we win the Cup.
LOL TSN’s servers are hammered right now!
so most of the top teams have made a move in the past couple of days, but rangers are the perfect team so they can’t move anyone. #chemistry
60% of the time, it works every time…
If patrick is holding it up, would that suggest howson and sather have a deal they agree on….
manny, sportsnet can be seen here: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/watch-sportsnet-2012-nhl-trade-deadline-extravaganza-122609300.html
Maybe you’re digging into the pizza….
Man I hope that byfuglien piece of carcillo slats doesn’t completely howson a good deal. Aw, cooke, who am I kidding?
(did I get em all?)
Thanks, ORR
**********************
I just heard that Dubinsky-Boyle-Prust are sitting in a shirtless circle, joined at the hands, praying over some incense and a candle.
wheres Rod? is he in the process of breaking howser’s trade?
ILB
please don’t say delivery room just yet!!
Thanks Doodie!
M(x,y)dx + N(x,y)dy = 0 is exact if M sub y =’s N sub x…...in other words Avery for nash getting closer
Sami Pahlsson sounds thrilled.
Prust has his hand over the candle saying “It’s just pain.”
Dubi has toes up noes, while on his knees? Cirque du Soleil try out?
Rangers could probably get Zubaz Pantsarov for a low-end pick.
Gretzky, Thornton, Heatley, Jagr, and Kovalchuk were all traded for peanuts.
I think Sather is gonna lowball the CBJ’s, and they are now in a position that Nash has put them in: BENT OVER.
I’ve known about every one of these trades for hours now, sometimes before the GMs knew. I know about other trades too, maybe involving the Rangers. Obviously, I can’t tell you guys.
someone hold me…i am scared
3:01×2 = 6 goals.
Pahlsson might be crying on TSN.
This is the only place i am looking today. refresh refresh refresh.
fchamps – new math?
3:01×2 = $4.2M
THE Prust can hold red hot coals with his lips…just pain
panger sitting on 4 phone books in the studio
dubi erixon and 1st get it done
But remember that Patrick did everything he could to keep Jagr away from NYR. So, we are not dealing with a Sather crony.
Interesting.
I predict: Christian Thomas, Erixon/McIlrath, a 1st and a second.
panger and pierre just traded bald heads
I’d have trouble hating that deal, CW, but … ... ...
why does pahlsson sound so down ??
went from basement dweller in rebuild mode to stanley cup contender
Maybe him and the twins dont get along from their old school days back in Sweden ??
Hahaha I can see Prust staying up at night rocking himself to sleep. Crying…..”I miss Dubi…..It’s just [emotional] pain.”
Rob, sounds to me like Patrick is in charge now.
cw, Messier?
Peter, you got most of ‘em.
i agree with that cw. only i think erixon stays.
If we get Nash we;ll forget about anyone we trade sooner then later.
Prust just beat up Chuck Norris.
Nash insisting Prospal be part of deal
dreger tweets nash HAS BEEN asked to waive no trade clause
Doodie – what happens if a team wants to move a player after the 3:00 P.M. deadline?
has NOT eric
everyone has to be realistic, to get Nash or anyone that will help us get the cup, we need to trade picks,and players we don’t want to.
Excellent. I dont have the greatest source but he is a source and Im hearing it’s Stepan/Kreider/Miller and the first. But don’t quote me. Dubi’s not nervous because he doesn’t need to be. If this is the case Patrick is in charge and I doubt it gets done. Unless CBJ has to move Nash, which it would appear they do.
Hey Grabby,
I’m not a frequent poster, but loyal reader. I was sick with pneumonia for 3 weeks…it was sickest I’ve ever been (I thank GOD every day I had my husband to take care of me…and the kids). The doc gave me Tussinex as well, and man, all you need to know about how strong it is…it’s prescribed 1 teaspoon every 12 hours. Well, needless to say with the pneumonia I was using it every 6-8…but it works! Tastes better than the robitussin with codeine too.
OK, now back to your regularly scheduled trade smack talk!
LGR!!!
hank for nash….beer on and chad’s johnson will get us the cup
eric – no, it doesn’t
Darren Dreger: May be too late, but there is a late charge for Rick Nash!! Will NYR pay the price? Buckle up.
My prediction…
Artie, Hags, Erixon, two first round picks for Nash.
Well, we know Dizzy (DZ) and McMonster aren’t going anywhere. There is nobody out there for the Rangers to get and fill their spot. This must mean that CBJs are starting to cave.
hello five foot zero….if i send you my address, will you mail me a few bottles?
Both Rick Nash AND the Rangers are pushing Columbus for a deal. CBJ will HAVE to ask for less.
Hasn’t Nash already waived it to 5 teams? Seems like meaningless semantics.
listening to nhl home ice on xm radio
flyers calling columbus they say to drive up the price on the rangers
my sources tell me that anyone who claims to have a source on a message board is FOS.
Nash insisting Prospal be part of deal
This one is up there for today, definitely.
Peter
I have 2 sources that say you are full of Carcillo…
Uh, no I have a source it just isn’t a good one.
@stevezipay TSN also reports now better than 50% chance Nash gets moved
some huge trades today
I saw that Nash has not been asked to waive anything.
Does that matter though? Didn’t he pre-waive it by making a list?
WHAT HAVE I MISSED????
if Nash does get moved today at the last minute, I’ll bet it isn’t to the rangers, probably The Maple Leafs, possibly the sharks or another team hiding in the weeds.
Erixon, J.T. Miller, 1st and AA for Nash
2nd rounder for Lundin
-get errrrr done
sny rangers blog
is where i got the dreger tweet on HAS BEEN
:35
NOTHIN, LIN! THIS IS BORING!!!
PUSH!!
oh baby!!!! alyonka
:34
pretty sure Nash gave the Jackets a list of teams to which he’d waive the NTC.
dreger tweet says “has not been” ... not that it matters because CBJ already know where he is willing to go.
at :16 the trade happens…..avery for nash….....you heard it here first
I want to go lay down under my bed until this has all passed.
Are we pushing?
I’m working through lunch the rest of the week to make up my hours for today, something better happen lol ;-)
A, AA, AAA for nash
AARON PORTZLINE who coves jackets tweets
situation btwn nash and columbus has turned frantic since teams make there push
portzline tweets it is frantic in CLB
Aaron Portzline ? @Aportzline
Situation behind the scenes between #CBJ and Rick Nash has turned frantic, as suitors are making late push for #CBJ captain.
All in all if we don’t trade I love our team as it is.
stevezipayRTAportzline: Situation behind the scenes between #CBJ and Rick Nash has turned frantic, as suitors are making late push for #CBJ captain.I like Frantic! Freak out Blue Jackets. GIVE him away.
got that from snyrangers blog
eddie eddie eddie….Tommy Boy will hold you. dont worry
TSN guy mention Waiting For Godot
how appropriate for today.
won’t be displeased if Rangers do nothing today
but
as usual, it’s a matter of what we give up if we make a trade
either the 2012 draft is very weak or the 2013 is ridiculously strong since teams seam to be preferring the 2013 draft when it comes to acquiring picks…
BS. Vancouver, SJ used up their cap space and made their deals. It’s the Rangers against the Rangers. Portzine is in on it. Maybe.
Darren Dreger ? @DarrenDreger
Many different offers considered, but the glimmer of hope in New York for a Rick Nash trade is quickly fading. #tradecentre
Reply
If frantic is the word, let the other teams throw their rosters under the bus. Very few decisions made in a panic turn out to be wise.
i need to pick up my son at 400
this trade better de done and talked about
now dreger says its over
I hope sather doesn’t do something stupid here. I get the impression the flyers are trying to bait sather into giving more than he should for Nash.
eric …
i saw that too on SNY … i think it was a typo
nash is NOT coming to ranges from dreger
Nash has to be chomping at the bit though,he has never played with the talent that the Rangers have
Oh man. Mat Gilroy just got called a “prospect” on Sportsnet.
only 28 more minutes for Sassy and Mickey… unless that’s NOT the offical trade clock
Nash will get traded in the summer when the jackets get a new GM.
If Patrick is the one creating problems for us, we need to see if we can get Kurt Russell to contact him with his best Brooks impersonation and tell him to blow the whistle.
value for nash plummets this summer.
Big winner from today=Pahlsson. From last place team to first place team.
dreger
nash to rangers fading on latest tweet
doodie
pahlson seemed miserable being interviewed
Doodie, I presume you didn’t hear Pahlsson’s interview on TSN.
anyone who thinks the cbj will ge tmore for nash in the summer has no logic behind that statement. why? with a trade deadline and a few teams with $, prospects, and the need how can it be more valuable in the summer?
that is just a bs statement
my fortune cookie says “don’t give in to cynicism”
thx MGB
DREGER – “Nash is coming to ny
what does incarcerated Bob have to say ???? ...Nash ??
Hey guys – if your twitter widget doesn’t work I think it’s because you have multiple windows with this same page open at once. Close the other ones and at least the one left should work (and refresh the one of course).
:25.
Craig Patrick will accept Alek Stojanov for Nash straight up. Get it done.
marchand’s nose just traded for an elephant’s trunk…..the elephant is beaming
i agree, stuart a. the market doesn’t expand but availability of players does. you have a few teams who think they can win the cup now bidding for the guy. this summer, the list remains the same and options shrink for CBJ. (unless nash opens up his list)
i wonder how many people gave up a sick day to stayhome for this? thank god i can wait a few hours to find out we did nothing.
Feeling I got is that a renewal of Nash talks was possible. But unlikely. Now it’s really late, no?
dubi on the ledge of his high rise…....NYFD on the way
AA has to be part of mix over Dubi – send me both with Thomas, no pick (sorry Dubi) for Nash
looks like NHL office is backed up, there will be trades announced after the 3:00pm dead line.
Craig Patrick hates the NYR. If there is any holdup, it is him. Still pissed that #68 made his way to MSG…
:23 drury time
And its really impossible to discount Nash opening up the list. Right now he can try and pick his five favorite locations but if none step up and don’t again in the offseason, doesn’t one of the remaining 24 seem better than Columbus? Or any of the remaining 24, really?
carp —seems like it would be, unless the parameters were set and they were squabbling over one player.
People, stop getting so hung up over insignificant words like “is” and “not”...
mike richards keith richards toby keith for renee richards renee russo and mad dog russo
send em* both
lol Grabby, i left early! Originally had the whole day off, but dr is seeing 65 people on Wednesday and had to get a head start on that mess!
LMFAO @ “the elephant is beaming”
oh wait, im still home. i work tonight. im having so much fun i forgot where i was and what i was doing
mister d—
sure, he may. but even then i don’t know if you get more than now. plus, if you’re the CBJ and you take that chance and fail, you’re really screwed because Nash has made it pretty clear he doesn’t want to be there.
deb placey a late arrival on the marchand nose trade….says “i can beat that elephant’s trunk”
:21.
This has to be the worst trade deadline day in years. All this build up for nothing.
Is anyone a Ranger yet???!!?!!?!??
I am still against this trade for some reason. Maybe it is the first time that the NYR have true talent in the org.
If we don’t get Nash, let’s at least land a 5th , 6th dman
This has to be the best trade deadline day in years. All this build up for nothing.
I heard Pahlsson be mopey, but if he is, it’s because he was looking forward to an early summer.
lw – it depends on how is is defined
Yes DJK—Dubinsky promises to start being a ranger tonight.
Rangers have signed Peter Forsberg
BRING BACK TYUTIN!
I’ll still take Roy for a kid and a pick.
Steve Nash, Crash Davis, The Flash, The Clash and Johnny Cash for Dubi, Ruby Tuesday, Rudy Don’t Fail, Doubting Thomas, Miller Lite and no pick (sorry Dubi…)
dreger – nash is and is not coming to NYR
Slats is lurking in the tall grass…
Nick Kypreos
#SNtrade. Told #Leafs will not make final push on # Bluejackets Nash. #Rangers and #Sharks still trying.
@ Mister D, wasn’t just refering to the Rangers, deadline day in general. Would have liked to see at least one big name moved…
If I’m Columbus, I would go after Anisimov, with Yakupov coming in the Draft.
Surprise to come….HANG ON!!!’
puff…push…puff…push…
Nash might be coming to the rangers, in the summer.
noah – take the plea…..avery for nash and tootin
i love this trade deadline. the rangers are no longer a desperate team trying to squek in to the playoffs and pray for lundqvist to stand on his head.
nash at right price makes them a elite team. they are close to being elite without nash, what is bad with that??????????????????????
hey lin!!!!! sanity!!!!! how are ya girl?
wow, almost 200 posts an hour! numbers are up… refresh
Sportsnet says that Leafs and Preds are OUT on Nash. Down to NYR and San Jose attempting to change Howson’s mind.
Sharks should take him given Jumbo Shrimp connect and Bruce Byfuglein at the helm.
CURSE YOU GARY BETTMAN
Rangers75: I know, but I would have signed up for 7 hours of coverage and no trades at the beginning of the day if I could have.
Nash for Lewinsky trade, Eddie?
Here it comes…
The rangers already have a Nash,but his name is Krieder. He’ll be here in a year or two
sharks offering a hammerhead and 2 great whites for Nash
XO GRABBYcakes!!!
do we christen the last 5 minutes the “I GOT SAUCES FINAL FIVE” ?
i dont think i can last the 15 minutes. call me an ambulance now.
i tend to believe kyproes the most.. so i take it that they are still trying?
of course nash is frustrated by this…they dangled the chance for him to play on the top team in the east as opposed to being in last place. he’s gonna be one unhappy camper if it doesn’t happen.
lmfao hammerhead and 2 great whites
Dubi 3:01 – it is written so let it be said…
LW – monica has a great wrist shot
16 minutes…
imagine nash. stuck in columbus. they are going to be bad for years. the guy will be minimum 30 before he has a chance to win. could be 11th or 12th season in columbus.
they should keep all sharp objects away from nash tonight…..
The trade may actually be announced after 3pm.
:16 …the bewitching minute
:14.
----^
beeeep—————————————————————-flatlineThe way Nash is pushing this deal is making me think I may not want his kind here…
ya gotta feel bad for Nash. he’s been thinking for 2 weeks he’d be moved out of hockey purgatory, and it may not happen.
stuart, I guess he’ll just have to comfort himself by swimming in his giant pool filled with money
DREGER – Nash and dubi both on the ledge…..NYFD talking both down
the ywill announce trades up untill 3:30 or later….
13
Lewinsky – no D protecting that crease and the goalie was pulled long ago…
i just traded a belly full of NASHo’s for a #2!
12 minutes til nothing happens

Grabby just stole CTB’s chart of Nash’s future production.
NYFD: Dubi – first, take your arm out of your nose
incarcerated bob said Nash was a done deal to the Rangers last night but then today retracted saying he was lying to piss off Rangers fans (he likes the Icelanders)...
That way he can never be wrong…
doodie,
I would love to have Nash’s problems but in relative terms and career wise nash is screwed. CBJ management stinks, they are years away from competing, he is screwed.
12…
:12.
monica lewensky – open V hole
Waiting for Columbus??
ibob puts things up like “Nash will or will not be traded. Done deal”

Bigger V hole than Beer-on?
got work in an hour, and if we dont make 1 mother byfuglien trade, thats it, stuff will hit the fan. watch out iowa, thres 1 crazy ny’er on the loose.
:11 vic hadfield time
I do feel for him. He was asked for a list of teams to which he’d accept a trade, and it was put out there that he was available. and he and his agent asked them to get it done before the deadline rather than before the summer.
it can’t be a comfortable thing for the captain of a team who’s spent his whole career there. It’s not his fault.
cbj still has a lot of bad contracts…
umberger overpaid, nash overpaid, wisniewski significantly overpaid,
and on and on…......
sign kreider after the NCAA tourney get him in the lineup, get him a taste of it.add some excitement and speed.
:10
sather is frantic, his cell phone battery just died…he is screaming for some AA
LMAO @ Gabby….hhahaha
Nobody should feel bad for Nash being stuck there…..he signed the long term deal
I don’t think Kreider’s coming this year.
With all the trade stuff gone I see a big win for us tonight,Remember we do play the devils

Salty, the deadline is 3 sharp to get the trade call in.
rangers 7
devils 0
GWG nash
If you think Kreider can contribute (big if, of course), isn’t it worth bringing him in? Figure the cost is a future RFA year is just cash 3 years later which is less than the cost of trading for a player in terms of prospects / picks / new player’s salary.
Where is Rod with all his “expertise”?
:Rod Gilbert
My problem with Nash is why did he sign this long term deal with CBJ? I don’t think it’s right that a player can agree to terms with a team, essentially locking up the terms for his contract, and then turn around and demand a trade. They gave him everything, including a NMC, and NOW he doesn’t like the direction the team is going?
Stuff can be announced later than 3, but must be completed by 3.
I don’t think Nash ever demanded a trade.

Word is Gaustad is going to get moved.
trades do not get approved from the league by 3 pm, they do not all get announced right then. they will announce them for at least 30 minutes after if they are made.
carp I hope you are wrong on Kreider playing this year but that would not be a shocker. Not sure what Kreider and his family are thinking. Is he staying 4 years in college? WHy? If he wants a degree he can go back in offseason, the college game is not competititive enough for him at this point.

On Kreider and the clock on the entry level contract to me is a red herring for a team like the Rangers but obviosuly I am not exactly a NHL exec.
if he can help the team a lot, so you lose a year on his contract, so what…...
Glen Beck, Lester Patrick and rosie palms
Kreider wont even sign a Contract .. he will get a PTO with the Whale,and play intheir playoffs
the Rangers wont Burn 1 yr of his ELC

Gameover. This was a strange trade deadline. I thought the Rangers would do something.
Gump Worsley, Lorne Chabot, Emile Francis
We get the logic of why you wouldn’t bring Kreider up, but there’s a logic to doing it. The cost of his extra FA year can still be less than the cost of bringing in an outside player via trade.
gaustad to nashville
Biron!

Surprised the Rangers didn’t do anything.

Gaustad to Nashville.
Woohoo!!!!!!!!!! :D
Gaustad on the Preds…...
No Nash…oh well. I can say I am ok with that.
i wanted gaustad
Gaustad to NAshville
We did nothing?????
gaustad to preds…
who got Dustin Brown?
I know you did, eric. We didn’t get him though.
Rick Nash will be hitting the bottle hard for the rest of the season.
And Sather goes back to sleep…
Carp – I heard that Dustin Brown got traded to the Kings. I think he will be their Capt.
I had the Gaustad trade before TSN … I got sources !! ha
I got Dustin Brown
not official yet, DJK. Still checking. Could be something done but not announced. will have confirmation soon.
Nashville should definitely be better after today.
Who got Avery?
Well it’s 3:01 and Dubi is still a Ranger
Howson confirms that Nash has not been traded. Howson is also clearing out his desk.
Izzy, you assume he had woken up?
avery for nash and tootin…just in before the horn
I just read that Dave Schultz was traded for Rod Gilbert…
I say it’s all good. We’ve wasted on rentals these past few years which have done NOTHING (Jokinen? McCabe?)
These Rangers have surprised everyone this year. Let’s see where they can go in the playoffs. Maybe a deep run? Maybe another first round ouster?
Let’s see what they can do and then make the proper decisions in the off-season.
The Rangers ARE one of the youngest teams in the NHL AND they are one of the top teams. A decade ago I’d have called you crazy to believe that could ever happen.
Let’s see what this group can do. Now that the deadline has passed they can concentrate on getting back to their game.
First up – Beat Freakin’ Uncle Daddy TONIGHT!
what did nashville give up for Gaustad?
Carp,
I thought Nash asked for a trade. Maybe “demand” was too strong a word. The point still is that he doesn’t want to play for CBJ anymore after just signing a contract.
“In the off-season, on July 3, 2009, Nash signed an eight-year contract extension with the Blue Jackets worth $62.4 million set to take effect in 2010–11.”
That’s the point I’m trying to make. I don’t think it’s right to basically get the team to give you everything you want and then ask out.
NYR/Preds Stanley Cup Finalists
lmao, didnt Cally undress Gaustad the other night? he doesnt necessarily make it harder to score on the preds, he doesnt play goal
Wow..
Life as a Ranger fan is sure better then it use to be. No moves of desperation. Imagine a team a young team with plenty of addtl talent on the way.
Marc Crawford is a moron, yep definitely they will trade Nash in the offseason for a huge package.. DEFINITELY…. really why???? the guy has a bad contract delude yourselves all yo uwant that a bad contract does not matter. It is less important if you are not giving up 5 addtl assets also.
parise costs you $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ only….BIG Difference.,............
Aaron Portzline ? @Aportzline
Confirmed by #CBJ GM Scott Howson that Nash has not been traded by 3 p.m. deadline.

dubi’s arm is stuck in his nose…healthy scratch for tonight
There you have it. Nash has not been traded.
Good job, Sather. “We almost had Stamkos….er…. and Nash..” ;)
lindy ruff is the most overrated coach in nhl history
In today’s NHL where winners and losers all get points, I can’t say I’m too surprised by the lack of moves. Really…how many teams are COMPLETELY out of it?
And Columbus…all they have is Nash. That’s it. After him there’s nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch.
So if they can’t get a king’s ransom for him, they’re not gonna move him. I totally understand that way of thinking.
Carp, sounds like a 2nd rounder.
“parise costs you $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ only….BIG Difference”
Trading for Nash also guarantees he will be on your team. For Parise you are just another option with no guarantee. That is also a big difference. Certainty will cost you.
sather is not a fool.. he is not. he wanted Nash for obvious reasons but he was not going to ge tfleeced…............

CJP, that’s what I said earlier. 25 teams are .500 or better. Absurd.
Nash did not initiate this as far as I know. It was Columbus.
dale rolfe for orest kinderchuck
This was a good deadline for the Rangers. The prices for players this year was CRAZY! They needed scoring and the price for it was beyond what they could/should do. Depth on D would have been nice, but the prices were too high.
Dolan and Sather agreed way back in 2005 that they wouldn’t trade for Rick Nash in 2012…it’s all part of the master plan.

CARP: “MAMMOTH OFFER”???
Do you have any info or insight on this? would love to know what CBJ’s turned down????
isn’t it too early for the trades to be announced ? The NHL gods have to approve them.
just remember Lundmark and brendl not being traded because they were the ranger future
If it was “mammoth” don’t you think Nash would be on a plane right now?
I think I’ll be happier never knowing what Sather offered at the last minute.
harry van reams dyke on the table…its huge
Dont know but if we still want Nash on draft day the return will be less.
probably a deal to bolster the Whalerpack
Parise won’t be a Ranger…and if he does he’s gonna be more expensive and more years….AND former Devil star.
I hope Ranger fans know that the Stanley Cup just got a whole lot harder to get. Wow.
This kid better be special.
eddie
that lineup would have probably put us over the top.
dangit!!!!
haha orr.. lebrun was saying roy was not traded as u posted that comment
that wasnt a wooly mammoth, that was marchand’s nose
Jackman?!?
Wow, Doug MacLean is tearing CBJ’s Aasen over how they handled Nash
ugh. rumor is Zanon to Bruins….
Mammoth offer? – did it include Marchand’s nose?
zanon to bruins d depth. like it for them
Carp, you misunderstood. He offered Howson a mammoth, like the extinct elephantine animal.
minor deal ?? Jason Krog ??
Don’t know why all the surprise…Howson seemed to be trying to jerk Sather around the whole time. Glad Sather didn’t end up mucking up the waters with a bad deal for Nash, if it hasn’t happened. I also think that Dubinsky is having an off year…long term, I think he’ll turn out ok.
Got to watch that Ashton kid yesterday in WBS ,hope Krieder is close to that good.
CARP: Mammoth is in the Tusk of the beholder.
trades 10
players 18
picks 8
8 picks?...must not be counting dubi’s actions
“If it was “mammoth” don’t you think Nash would be on a plane right now?”
Exactly. Dreger sounds like an idiot right now.
Ex3…grate mines…or something like that
Yeah, as soon as I hit “submit” I heard them say that aboot Roy! Fugg!
minor deal announcement coming.
what on earth makes you think dubinsky will “turn out ok”?
Mottau! Mottau! Mottau!
Looks like NYR traded a 3rd round pick for Jared Staal
somebody’s blowing smoke up dreger’s howson.
“Mammoth” could be quantity over quality though
johnnyboy, in 2009 I had Ashton within 2 spots of Kreider on my draft board. I may have actually had him higher.
I’d love to know what this offer was.
X2
even if parise is more costly then Nash SO WHAT. they give up no players. no adios to mdz, mcdonagh, AA, etc….
You know what sucks… we are going to have to hear all these rumors again in the summer…
great – the bruins just got greg zanon…the balance of power has shifted to boston…NYR have no chance
Zanon went to the Bruins as well.
Orr
ha Jared Staal isn’t worth a 13th round pick
s. nation :)
stuart, there’s no guarantee you get Parise. Everyone just ignores this

Goodbye, Columbus
HOLY CRAP! JOHN SCOTT!

lmfao!!! john scott!! wow
Rod must be waiting for the minor deal to be announced before he comments, huh?
I’m happy, sometimes no moves are good moves and in this case it was a good move. I don’t get why Howson thought he could trade Nash and get back a return that would rebuild his club all in one trade. That dude is really clueless and now I understand why the jackets are a bad franchise.

That’s a huge deal.
i know the rangers may not get Parise of course.
boston just got 3 sr. citizen players. Rolston Mattou, and Zanaon, any of these guys under 34?
John Scott is a suite him up once in a bluemoon nothing move… Irrelevant. Rangers staying the course, what a concept. They actually have a plan. A simple plan. Build from within, take advantage of the King and their young and talented D. Add high end forwards thru FA if possible…........
john scott is the missing piece…plan the parade…...

That trade dealine sucked. No good deals… BORING. Glad the Rangers didn’t get Nash. Dubinsky better thank his lucky stars he didn’t get banished to Central Ohio and start playing like he wants to stay here. Playing for the Rangers is a privilege, not a right
6 foot 8 270 pounds
at least we got some depth scoring!! omg what a joke. was there a plan b? was boyle feds prust n duby all the secondary scoring we will need? top it off, we lost wolski and ec for nothing, so if we need help for an injury, we have to call up newbury! vfantastic win for the rangers. at least other east teams didnt do much
HUGE is a cool word
Kudos to Slats for not being stupid and for staying the course. I never wanted Nash if one of our D’s were invloved. Talking Mac & MDZ. It was a non starter. We should be flying high tonight so let’s beat FATTY.
Can he fight?
NYR, he may be HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGER than Antropov.
I will have to discuss the transfer of that moniker from Antro to Scott, with Sally
Talked to Rupp about Scott the night the Hawks were here. Said he played against him a bit when Scott was in Minny, I think, and that he’s not a bad player. Freakin’ enormous. plays D or F.
John Scott is the mammoth
i love that they got this guy. i’m sick of prust fighting the heavyweights
TSN: John Scott from Chicago
Goon. Pass.
Nothing else coming from NYR.
oh crap, john scott is that huge tough guy?? thats cool. i like that move. cuz thres tons of fighting in the playoffs.
John Michael David James william Thomas edward Scott
John Scott is…wait for it…
Mammoth
i guess Haystacks Calhoun wouldnt wave his no trade clause.
Sounds like Pierre is not happy that the Rangers acquired Scott.
Nothing wrong with adding a little more size and toughness. Nothing at all. Especially if Rupp’s hand is messed up.
“Great Scott Marty!”- In Doc voice
Pierre is such a d**che. What does he have against the Rangers?
5th round pick for some size.
also Scott played forward for Chicago this season if i’m not mistaken…
for the regular season its a great move though. definitely dont need prust getting hurt for the playoffs
i’ve watched a bunch of youtubes fights with scott involved, and i have not come close to seeing him lose one.
This guy’s bigger than Nash. Maybe that’s what Dreger meant when he said “mammoth.”
impending UFA $ 525,ooo
“Nash will be a Ranger, or something other than a Blue Jacket, by 3pm tomorrow.”
Whoops.
“Rick Nash WILL be traded by tomorrow.”
Whoops.
“Correction … made an offer for a mammoth.”
if pierre doesn’t like a trade it must have been a great one.
oops i mean 512,500
Canucks have a move pending. Gaustad was for a 1st with a 4th going back the other way
If were desperate for offense we can always sign Krieder and burn a year of ELC status.
torts has to put out rupp, boyle and scott one time. for kicks.
Just a huuuuuuuger, bigger, less skilled, version of BilBev.
Glad Dubinsky is staying. Confident he will turn his year around before the playoffs.Carp, do they still let you eat in the press room or does the paper make you pay your way? See you tonight!
yep pierre mcguire with some biting insight.
the treat the rangers like they are a after thought. giradi, staal, mdz, mcdonut, sauer.. name a better young d corps in hockey? does not exist. also have erisoxn mcilrath, and others in the systems.. stralman is 25, bickel, the same.. thsi team has sick d depth.
i stud forward away from contending, like 8 other teams. they do not grow on trees…
Serious request: Any of you that go to games, let me know if Scott shirtseys become available at the team store.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQRHGstaetk&feature=related
holy holy
Also, Pierre said that you create an auction at draft day for Rick Nash.. REALLY? with his total NTC and him being pissed about not getting traded to a contender at the deadline? You really think he is going to open up his list of who he will go to?
ummmm, I don’t think so!
Jeez, the Preds actually caved and gave the Sabs a 1st? Wow!
“ORR!! What Is It Good For?
February 27th, 2012 at 3:21 pm
Sounds like Pierre is not happy that the Rangers acquired Scott.”
that means it is a good pickup.
Carp, does McGuire hold a grudge against NYR and if so, is it from his days as a Pitt asst coach?
Plus, dubi’s arm is still up his nose…we will need John scott to play forward until we get dubi’s arm free…
I hope Scott will be in tonight.
He makes Bickell redundant. I expect Bickell to be Whaled soon.
guastad for a 1st and a 4th is ridiculous. gaustad is a nice player but not exactly a game changer…...
nashville is insane…........serious overpays all over the place…
Carp, can we start a new thread my mouse is melting down…..
Sportsnet is completely confused as to why the Rangers would have gotten Scott also.
hey, everyone’s confident dubinsky will turn it around this year. because if he doubles his out put he’ll be scoring 2.2 goals per month!
scott… nice
Gaustad and a 4th for a 1st, Stuart.
John Scott is a top 3 heavy weight…. Sather lives the enforcers
Scott most dangerous furthering league…when Big Mac is down in the A
I don’t think he does. I’ve heard him singing praises about the way they play, about Tortorella and Callahan and Lundqvist all season … and last season, too.
Mister D: I doubt they’ll become available, but you can have one custom made on the Rangers Online Shop. They generally don’t allow roster players, but I don’t see him cracking the roster.
again nash had more value now then is june, just saying.
the analysts know no more then the bloggers here..that is scary….
John Scott vs Frank Zappa
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoUjx2v8IB4&feature=related
If he doubles his output, he’s on a 22 goal pace to finish and its nice value. Doesn’t matter what happened before.
gaustad and a 4th for a 1st still a big overpay.
gaustad is agood player I wanted him on the rangers. faceoffs etc.
he is not that good and he is a UFA….......
4th went back to the predators
948 posts so far = BIG bucks for Carp !
refresh anyway !
I think Bickel is going to play. Tortorella loves him, loves the way he’s eager to learn. Loves his toughness.
Scott will probably be a scratch most nights … unless Rupp is really hurt. Play him vs. Philly.
What’s to complain about? A guy to end Tom Sestito’s career for a 5th?!? I am all for this deal.
pierre will be giving us the peewee background of john scott…stay tuned
OMG panger’s and pierre’s shiny noodle were just on my screen as the sun’s angle reached its apex…..i have been blinded ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
YGG: I’ll need a real number on it, otherwise I’m a dork with his name on a shirtsey. Right now he wears Stralman’s.
That’s just on this thread. We had a lot of comments on the earlier threads today, too. And we still have a game to go.
Ka-ching.
I think TSN (Pierre) is pissed that we didnt dismantle the Team for Nash so they can do their normal “ranger Bashing” on the air … so Slats makes a minor move that No One should give a damn about and guess what … Tsn Ranger Bashing
well put, cw.
exactly CW!!!
So now that the Nash distraction is over, I’d just like to remind everyone of the “FIRE SATHER” chants that we heard during the Dark Ages (‘00-’05). Believe me, I was the loudest voice screaming that the game had passed Slats by. The most ridiculous moments were when he took over behind the bench himself. Well, now I’m proud to admit I was wrong… for now. In 7 years we went from having no plan whatsoever other than throw money at whatever free agent would make the biggest splash, to having a consistent pipeline of youth and players that actually function as part of a system instead of making passes to nowhere and/or looking like stationary logs on skates.
Scott does not make Bickel Redundant. Scott’s weakness is his ability to skate.
mister d—i don’t know what math you’re using. if he tripled his production for the rest of the season (there is only a little more than a month left) he’s on a 12 goal pace. for 4.2 million he’s TERRIBLE value. and without first-line minutes the chances of him scoring more than 10 goals are slim. but hey, chemistry!
We traded a 5th rd pick for tough guy John Scott on Chicago, I guess the CT whale needed a fighter ? Lol
Sestito-DEAD, HArtnell-DEAD, Colborn-DEAD, Rinalso-DEAD, Simmons-DEAD…
ah yes, and bickel is a great skater.
Fchamps: I’m using the math indicated by “doesn’t matter what happened before”. 6 goals over 22 games is a 22 goal pace. Because it “doesn’t matter what happened before”.
great post somerset!!!!
Pierre sounds best with a ball shoved in his mouth and a bag over his head
wheres Rod?
I am really happy that we didn’t overpay for Gaustad.
Lucic-DEAD, Martin-DEAD, Clarkson-DEAD, England-DEAD, ...
Scott is here just for the Regular Season. He’s going to make sure guys don’t take runs at Gaby and the others. Losing a 5th is NBD so I’m fine with it.
Scott = MAMMOTH MONSTER
Brian Burke, looking more like a Kennedy every year
NIEDERMAYER!
Bickel is a better skater than Scott.
Carp, will you have a conference call with the man behind the curtain?
rob m—scott will be the NHL roster, no doubt about that. 1. they can use the toughness. he’s a ufa next year.

Congrats, bro. I saw the light last year. It’s a wonderful thing. When was the last time the Rangers had some of the best scouting and prospects in the League? Never. The old Rangers brass would have traded Stepan and Del Zotto and McDonagh for Nash….
Not at all surprised, CBJ was in a stronger negotiating position. I’m willing to bet we won’t be singing Sather’s praises as much if details of the “mammoth” offer ever come out.
remember, the cap had allot to do with sather changing his plan, also when sather took over the rangers had nothing left in the farm system because they traded it all away to win the cup which forced him to buy players through free agency and make the rangers competitive, plus some poor drafting. Promoting Clarke in 2007 has been a turnaround in drafting also for the Rangers.
PHEW
No bias toward team, just towards teams tendencies…I think anyone criticizing a pickup of a goon is doing so with a bias to HOW THAT HAS WORKED OUT IN THE PAST.
Boogie, Brashear…etc
But this may be to save Rupp and Prusts’ fists and add some general toughness for the deep. Tough guys like pronger thrive in the playoffs.
Bickel is not riding the whale anytime soon -he is playing tonight. Eminger is sitting.
cory hogdson to buff for zach kassian
John Scott… But why though… Could Emminger or Bickel be moving??
LMFAO:
PuckCentral.net ? @PuckCentral
Brian Burke said lack of trades should be seen as endorsement for Leafs players. Endorsement of what? No one else wants your shitty players?
can’t wait til we play the flyers, lets see what there goons do now. Scott will beat all three of them to death by himself.
Hodgson to Buff
Love this move. I believe Carp said Rupp got injured on the Boulton slash so maybe they rest him and put Scott on the 4th line as an enforcer.
I’d rather have Scott taking the 5 minutes than Prust…
OOOOOOOOP SORRY CARP!!! i’ll go sit in the corner for five minutes
WOW, why would they trade Hodgson? thta deal makes NO sense. What a coup for Buffalo today. They win deadline 2012, easily.
Good afternooooooooooooon, Carp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Linda, I approve the transfer of the “HUUUGE” moniker to Scott whoever.
And what was up this morning with people claiming “everyone in Buffalo hates Gaustad”??? Are you KIDDING me? This town loved him. Fare thee well, Goose!
LOVE the Scott Trade!!! LOVE IT!! After watching the Rangers play the Blackhawks and their inability to impose their will on the Blackhawks b/c of John Scott … I was one of the people who was hoping they sign Scott in the off season. This moves make the NYR the toughest team in the league. Would love to see Scott vs Lucic … next time they play. Lucic will get his ass handed to him. Chara will not want to go near this guy. I hope they resign him in the off season so he can play the role D.Boogard (RIP) was supposed to play.
Happy that Sally’s happy
Sabres fan friend is thrilled.
doodie
you selling kassian short. this kid could be a beast
Well that’s a big one.
Bickel is this team’s No. 6 defenseman. Get over it.
Somebody go wake up Sally! Tell her “3:01” Dubinsky’s still here. Tell her she can come back now.
Hodgson was really lighting it up this year. I don’t know why they got rid of him.
kassian pick up is great for the nucks!!
why is the nhl call center so backed up? can’t they afford an extra operator on deadline day? are they still using the alexander graham bell telephone?
SALLY!
Welcome back.
Is there another aspect to this Hodgson/Kassian trade?
Bickel is perfect for a 6 d man
marc andre gragaini headed to vancouver as well
According to hockeyfights, John Scott has been in 21 fights in his NHL career, winning all 21…

That’s right, Carp. Bickel = #6 D-Man and #13 LW.
eric, Hodgson is an excellent player already and only going to improve. Kassian is just a prospect at this point.

“WOW, why would they trade Hodgson? thta deal makes NO sense”
Maybe he asked out? He only plays 12 mins a night and has 16 goals! He should be a top line player….
I wonder if theyre gonna teach Scott to play Wing ??
Cw …post of the thread!! Well said!
wyshynskiVery impressed the #Sabres traded for Cody Hodgson years before they would have offered him a 10-year UFA deal.That’s a good one.
Canucks are SERIOUSLY beefing up for a cup run.
Really? Carp gets paid for each post?
Yea Hodgson is an excellent pickup. I would have enjoyed getting him.
Carp, happy to be back! Looking forward to the game tonight!!!
Two prospects for an excellent young player? Ugh. Buffalo wins by a country mile.
i wonder if erixon is called up so torts can take another look. seems to me there’s a problem if he’s more comfortable using bickel than eminger. as much as i like bickel’s heart and his toughness, it would be nice to have a defenseman with some skill—and a monster goon playing limited minutes on the fourth line.
johnyboy, which one?
Really, carp gets paid for each post?
im a big kassian fan since travers city where he destroyed the rangers
Rod is at an underground bunker in an undisclosed location talking to unnamed sources about deals that may or may not have been executed. That’s all we know at this point.
You bet Yev: $1.50/Per
i swear, why are some people suicidal over us getting Sheldon Cooper on steroids Scott for a 5th! This one kid is going absolutely nuts on my wall, and says he’s never seen the guy play. LMAO
I can’t believe Hodgson was almost given away and he isn’t on the Rangers. Damnations.
Only 25 cents per during the regular season.
40 cents per during the playoffs. 50 cents during the finals.
Scott has Bickels the size of the building.
Bickel as played well on the back line in limited duty and Em has been a mess in his own zone since his return. Has looked slow in his decision making moving puck out of zone which is a killer against a team with speed like Debbies.
Hey guys. Haven’t talked to Rod, but my sources told me back in November Nash was going to be involved in trade talks with the Rangers but nothing would be consummated. Sorry I couldn’t tell you until right now. Also, I know what’s going to happen with Parise and Suter this offseason. Can’t disclose. Don’t want to tick off the sources.
Lin(sanity), he played vs. Rangers last week. Took a really dumb boarding penalty … the one that caused the controversy, I think, because the Blackhawks were allowed to choose a two-minute 5-on-3 or a four-minute 5-on-4.
Prust can’t do all the heavy lifting, and Rupp won’t, so Scott is a good move.
John Scott = Tyler Durden
Sestito one CW…
working from my phone now…slow…
Great day to be a Rangers fan!
I’m liking Sather much more these past few years…
Would love to know which Eastern Conf GM loved Hodgson but was told he was completely unavailable.
Three weeks ago I predicted the Rangers would make only one trade on deadline day, and that it would be John Scott for a fifth-rounder at 2:59 p.m.
Does this mean Sauer Power is unplugged this season?
In Rupper’s defense, I think he has a few broken hands and arms.
I can’t stand Pierre, but I have been listening to him on the radio yesterday and today, and he believes in the Rangers and thought trading for Nash was definitely the wrong thing to do. He actually said, “If the Rangers trade for Nash, I am going to be so mad.” Not that I really care what the guy thinks, but he thinks we are the real deal and have some of the best chemistry in the league.
Carp, i remember him from that game. I thought he looked like Sheldon Cooper all filled out.
Will Scott get “lots” of playing time while Rupp rests for the playoff push? Maybe that’s the idea…
“I’m liking Sather much more these past few years…”
Depends on if he really offered a mammoth but got bailed out by Howson.
Sather is brilliant again. Keep the kids, add some bulk, and sign Parise July 1st. NYR are for REAL!!!
carp did u get that info from Rod?
Good point, Carp. It’s uncanny how every year we manage to get a borderline player that has recently attempted to murder one of our own!
That is a pretty odd trade for the Nucks to accept. I don’t get it. Based on stats alone, it doesn’t make sense.
cw—
so i take it you have no interest in winning the cup this year.
We don’t need to add anybody. I just talked to my source that talked to iBob who recently spoke with Rod and they told me that Dubinsky has promised to play much, much better.
this guy is a UFA after the season
It’s true, ORR. It makes zero sense. I guess Hodgson just wasn’t getting the minutes he should be getting and they can’t slot him in so why not move him. Risky, but they can afford it.
all i know is since Aaron Ward thinks its the greatest trade in nhl history i think it sucks.. Aaron Ward
Columbus sucks. They sign Prospal for another year, thus taking him off the market. But they trade every other good player while keeping Nash hostage with a host of impostors? And they DON’T EVEN get a goalie?
Nash is 100% unquestionably going to demand a trade this summer.
They have given up on everyone but him. And they shot themselves in the foot. Now Nash has no support cast to put up any numbers to justify trading that JOHN SCOTT sized contract this summer. Nor does he have any motivation. His value just tanked. Dubi, Erixon, McIlraith and number one would have been fine. That’s three number ones and a tenatious but inconsistent pro. Sure, you kept Nash, but you dragged his ass through the streets taking numbers and talking tough. He wont forget the shame.
And Poor Prospal, he got hoodvinked. He should fire his agent. I think he would have been better off trying to win a cup with us as a rental. Believe me, resigining next year with Columbus would have been a possibility, still. But, good news, last time he spurned Torts, they won the cup while he played for Anaheim, and they didn’t even make the playoffs. Repeat!
With Parise on this team with JT Miller, Krieder, & Erixon on their way, I will take the 3-5 cup runs in the next 10 years over the one with Nash. Sure.
I wanted Nash, and I didn’t want Nash. What worried me is bringing him in, could have likely been similar to when the Devils first brought in Kovy. He was not very good on that team, and they are only seeing the benefits of that trade now. I do think Nash is a great player, but I think getting him now, players would have been looking for too much from him instead of sticking to the system that has been so successful for us all year. Now, I don’t exactly know where our goals are going to come from, unless our PP magically gets a little better. We have scored enough to win games this year, but in the playoffs, when games are so tight defensively, Hank is going to have to be even better than he has been all year. That is a lot to ask.
Wonder if Gaustad peeled the shield from his face yet?
