Brukie
ParticipantSay it with me
DRURY ISNT GETTING FIRED. Say it again DRURY ISNT GETTNG FIRED. say it again third time if you want. Dolan told you as much on the radio. It isn’t happening. Let it gooooo
Gavrikov signed here after the fact, so that’s a bunch of malarkey.
Trocheck has to go because that’s the best chip to use and get the most for. His contract is too good not to trade for assets
This is another quote that wont age well!!

ParticipantTJ, u want to see my vision, you just refuse to admit you were wrong. I saw it all along with Laf, I know you loved him but he just didn’t have “it”. I blame a lot of that on the Rangers development. You don’t have 4 top 10 picks all be complete busts without the organization having something to do with it.
Lias, Krav, Kakko, Laf. They put these guys on the 3rd lines with limited ice time and they expect them to develop like other top 10 picks that are given top 6 roles with PP time.
Drury’s judgement on players in trades; and who he trades for/away is horrendous. He makes these trades and talks about he’s been wanting player X for a while and glad he finally got him. Parsenin, Brisson, Terrance, Blais, they all SUCK. What does he see in these guys that have made him want them for a long time?

BlockedI’m with you. I gave Laf a lot of rope imo but I can’t stand to look at his face anymore. Get a player who’s similarly underachieved and go in that direction

ParticipantWright for Laf, sign me up.

BlockedGorton did the same thing the first letter with Sathers team. I’d say the one mistake maybe he made was not tell us the deal last year, and instead did it this year. I think now at least it’s more understandable now what’s going on and last year makes a bit more sense.

BlockedIf you think about it, without hate glasses on, he hasn’t really “built” a team. He took over a pretty good team that Gorton put together, bought to make it better and get over the hump. It didn’t. Fault lies in a lot of places, Drury some of it yea, but it’s not only person. The picks made post letter the last time basically all shit the bed. Drury had nothing to do with that. That was all Gorton and gord Clark scouting. Since then it’s a been tear down process obviously, and that where you guys get pissed. And I get it. But he realized they weren’t good enough therefore they needed tear it down. You guys just won’t accept that fate.
Let him build a team with his vision and see what happens. That’s when he will get fired, if this retool/rebuild doesn’t succeed. But it isn’t happening overnight, it’s really that simple

BlockedFridge speculating Wright for Laf trade could happen
How would we feel about that?

ParticipantThey really should trade at the very least
-Panarin (I’d still try and re-sign him because we have plenty of cap space)
-Trocheck
-Soucy
-Carrick
-Schneider
For something decent-JBrod
-Raddysh
-VaaksFor whatever
It wouldn’t surprise me to see them trade Cuylle in a package for either Robertson or Dorofeyev. Maybe Laf but I’d think teams would rather have Cuylle. Two legit goal scorers who may be priced out of their current teams. I know Vegas, according to puck pedia, has only 4 million in cap space
This is what he means by strategic imo. Take advantage of cap strapped teams
Based on the way that Drury has treated his players recently, what makes you think that these players even want to come to NY? A volatile coaching situation that no coach has made it past 2 years. Given the toxic history that JT has around him, and now hes the captain of this team, why would players of that ilk want to be here?
You want to retool, fine. Start fresh. Fire Drury, Ortmeyer and Glass. Trade Panarin and Soucy, Raddysh, Vaks, etc… Schneider, I dont know but hes not as untouchable as he once was (Id want to keep Trocheck and Carrick, but if someone overpays, bye)… Id try not to trade Cuylle.
