What Dreger said: Sources tell me the firing of Jeff Gorton and John Davidson had nothing to do with the statement released by the Rangers.

What Dreger meant: James Dolan told me to tell everyone the statement had nothing to do with the firings and I am going to do so like an obedient little puppy.
It does seem unlikely that it's totally unrelated, but I really doubt Dreger takes any kind of direction from James f***ing Dolan.
 
I understand but you can sign or trade for somebody in the meantime temporarily. You can not wait on the draft for 1-3 seasons.

You aren't wrong--I do think they were constrained by the flat cap and all of that dead money/bonus money issue. For what they could afford, I just don't see how they would have helped all that much. Maybe telling Lemieux they would trade him in the summer in order to keep him around for the year? It was just a tough situation to actually do anything about this season.

It's in the middle of a rebuild... There would be no problem if the NHL did it's job.
Remember the Letter? It promised to get players with heart, players with will. It's not just Monday's events. We got a roster full of skill but no guts
