NY Rangers = America's Team
Just so you know, Murphy is less reliable than anyone I can think of right now.
We'll see.
For the record though, and as a Bruin fan, but moreso as a dad, if he was my kid Id advise him to go to Chicago.
I wish my parents had sent me to this "Jimmy Vesey Camp" I keep hearing about. Instead I played deck hockey at Hofstra for 2 months. Pfft.
"Sources in The Jimmy Vesey Camp have confirmed he's deciding between Chipotle and Moe's for dinner tonight."

Mr. Preachy
Just read your wording as a bit aggressive, that's all.
I didn't say Murphy was viable. I merely suggested that he probably meant one thing while responding to something that might have meant the other. I don't view him as credible either way.
As for the Warrior thing, I think it's purely coincidence. I don't think it's telling that he signs a sponsorship deal simply because of a practice facility for a team. Does Warrior sponsor every other player on the Bruins? I don't know, it just doesn't seem like anything more than a coincidence.
PIT is kind of in NY, right?
Yeah, if you ignore New Jersey and Philadelphia. And all the Amish people. Practically neighbors.

I know. I never said he was credible, nor do I think he is. I was just chiming in on the "did he mean this, did he mean that."
Just didn't expect my comment to be taken so seriously and represent some kind of allegiance to him as a credible source.

Yeah. I cant imagine any team making an unprofessional pitch.
I almost wish the kid would say '**** it, Im going for my Masters degree'.

Who's dropped out of the conversation at this point? Everybody but Nashville managed to "stay in the conversation." Doesn't mean we actually improved our odds of signing him.

Actually, no. There's a short list of teams as of a few days ago, and BUF is one of them.

Amen brother. It always amazes me that I live just north of Buffalo, living closer to Detroit and Chicago than I do to NYC, and yet people ask me which of the 5 boroughs I'm from whe I say I'm from New York. Ridiculous.

This is also the idiot radio host from the Fan and i highly doubt he has sources in Veseys camp. Dont get me wrong, as a pens fan i hope hes right but i dont trust him
Saying it is "only fitting" does not imply he thinks it is more than coincidence. It is still interesting. Perhaps fate agrees.

Well you better hope your team can make professional presentations.
These clowns on twitter are grasping at straws. This kid needs to sign somewhere already. I really don't care where.

Whoo doggie! Jimmy, let's play a game called look at your options:
1. Which NY team is the best? Islanders.
2. Which NY team has the best prospect cabinet? Islanders.
3. Which NY team has the best overall forward? Islanders.
Choice should be simple bro. The Devils and Rangers? You honestly want to break into the league playing with Stepan or Henrique? How do you think you'll do on a line with John Tavares? Will you get nervous and timid, or will you rise to the occasion and give coach a reason to keep you there? Let's see what you can do.

Yeah, this is crazy that he's been a free agent for 22.75 hours and hasn't made his mind up about a decision that will affect, at least, his next 5 years. Those decisions should take 5 hours!
Seriously, the impatience is a little ridiculous. No matter that it's likely going to take 2 more days for him to come to a decision.

I'll say it now, whether he signs with NJ or anywhere else. I don't think he will be better than a 40 point player. If the stars align maybe 50.
I would not stick my nose up to a decent free asset, but I'm not seeing anything beyond special here (definitely not worth this buzz).
Hopefully others remain honest if/when he signs with a rival.

I haven't see that. I mean how it is possible you can tell an NHL team sorry you are too far he wants to be closer to home and then go farther. How is that possible?
If the agent says that why meet with us? Brutal.

I want it over with so it can stop being a story. It isn't him so much as the coverage.
