[Kershaw]

I read Justin Faulk and nearly pee'd in my pants.

I read Justin Faulk and nearly pee'd in my pants.

when i read it i was like i cant believe we didnt have to give up staal...

 

[Punxrocknyc19*]

NYR have aquired Justin Falk from Minny

finally toughness on defense

 

[Championship*]

Not sure whats so funny about what he said. I like Kreider more than he does but he's right, he looked lost and ineffective.

And the fact that this team couldn't find a fourth line from players they drafted an had to look to the likes of Haley, Mashinter, Newbury, Powe, Halpern and Fereirro (sp) is a huge flaw in Clark's drafting record.

Better give up on him then, makes sense.

 

[Bleed Ranger Blue]

Better give up on him then, makes sense.

Nobody said that. Do you have a logical argument as to why Clark's draft record doesnt deserve some scrutiny?

No top end talent drafted, no depth. A bulk of redundancy.

 

[Kershaw]

Clark drafted depth players, but Sather gives them away like candy on Halloween.

With all those top 5 picks he's had to work with too...

 

[Bleed Ranger Blue]

With all those top 5 picks he's had to work with too...

Theres a laundry list of teams that have drafted top players outside of the top 10. Thats really nothing but an excuse.

 

[silverfish]

Rangers now have five NHL capable LHD. Staal > McD > Moore > DZ > Falk.

Move DZ for a top 10 pick. Let's do this.

More weight to Dagoon's rumor about Staal moving? Less weight to Scuderi coming to town?

 

[Kris Chreider]

McIlrath over Fowler and Tarasenko, Miller over Saad, Skjei over Matteau, these are questionable.

Skjei over Matteau is far from questionable.

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

Better give up on him then, makes sense.

You took that away my comment? Wow.

 

[Championship*]

McIlrath over Fowler and Tarasenko, Miller over Saad, Skjei over Matteau, these are questionable.

Fowler - We have MDZ and he's a better player. Fowler is a disaster defensively.

Saad - 30 teams past him once. Looks great playing on the best team in the league

Matteau - Really? Just a head case who was reached for early

 

[Josh3217]

With Sather acquiring Falk, another lefty, leads me to believe that Staal or Del Zotto will be moving.

 

[SA16]

McIlrath over Fowler and Tarasenko, Miller over Saad, Skjei over Matteau, these are questionable.

No - that is redrafting given hindsight.

 

[Jabroni]

I read Justin Faulk and nearly pee'd in my pants.

Same. I was thinking only a prospect and a 6th?

 

[Championship*]

You took that away my comment? Wow.

Well thought out response here. The "Wow" part particularly hit me. Very poignant.

I can only work with what you give me. You chose to ignore my more salient points.

 

[Boom Boom Geoffrion*]

I read Justin Faulk and nearly pee'd in my pants.

Thought the same exact thing.

 

[Championship*]

I can only work with what you give me. You chose to ignore my more salient points.

And you then chose to not go any further on them and simply reply with "Wow". Again, well thought out, very good way to state your case.

Clark v. Torts

who won?

 

[Clown Fiesta]

And you then chose to not go any further on them and simply reply with "Wow". Again, well thought out, very good way to state your case.

Why would he elaborate on something you completely ignored? He's not having a conversation with himself, and you decided to take his other statement out of context.

Maybe he could elaborate on that then and try to state his case.

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

Clark v. Torts

who won?

Not sure what this is supposed to mean? The coach is always going to lose. But how is that feather in Clark's hat?

 

[Bleed Ranger Blue]

Clark v. Torts

who won?

Is that supposed to illicit confidence considering the person who makes those decisions?
