OT: Let's Remember Some Guys

[True Blue]

Sylvan Leferbvre was the best signing of that free agency. He wasn't actually the problem from what I remember.
Ulanov UGH. That guy was terrible. Just terrible. At least Karpa tried. Quintal had his moments but most of them were bad.

He may have been the best of the bunch, but LeFeeble was awful.

Here we go again....

Ha! JR is not here though

Captain Kelly Kisio!

Those early 2000's Rangers teams had some nice talent at the top of the lineup, and some memorable first lines.

Might have been decent teams if they bothered with depth at all. Those D corps after Leetch are embarrassing.

One of my all-time favorite Ranger lines- Bob Niven, Phil Goyette and Donnie Marshall.

All very good two way hockey players. Very solid Rangers.

 

[UnSandvich]

Not so great news. Believe he was with Hartford at one point

Former NHLer carried off the ice after suffering a broken neck.

For a 136th OA pick, Mike York ended up having a hell of a pro hockey career.

Which one?

Joey Kocur, the man could put his fist out the back of your head. Scored a beauty playoff goal for Detroit

Scored a few ugly playoff goals for Detroit too!

Funny story about Joey Kocur: I bought his Green Day tickets. I think.

The show was sold out and I had to buy tickets that were already bought through one of those resale type deals. Cost me a week's salary and a few internal organs.

At the top of each ticket was the name "Joe Kocur". It's gotta be him. There's only like 8 Kocur families in the entire United States.

Zalapski died? **** me, man.

A while ago.

 

[One Winged Angel]

Zalapski had a GREAT 92-93 season in Hartford. I remember that CVS line (Cassels-Verbeek-Sanderson) and Zalapski on that power play did damage and they would always f*** the Rangers up. Burke would give them fits.

Jeff Toms, Igor Ulanov, Trent Whitfield

Roman Lyashenko

Roman Lyashenko

So sad. I don't keep track of deaths around the league but I feel like we had a tough time of it with Lyashenko, Cherepanov, and Boogaard.

Green Day? Dude, they ain’t that good...

The Whalers were the real winners in that trade.

 

[HFsNumber1Heel]

Zalapski didn't even make it past a preseason with the Rangers. He was waived and I think the Flames picked him back up.

Lyashenko was sad. Kid had his entire life ahead of him even if it wasn't in hockey.

 

[Machinehead]

Green Day? Dude, they ain’t that good...

Best show I've been to

Mike Kostka.

Must be an age thing. I kind of like Dookie, but outside of that, not a fan.
