I love all the sour grapes. I really do. "So the Rangers get Lafreniere, they still have no centers and their D sucks". It's really a shame we only get Alexis for one season...I mean just think what this team could become if they got him for a few years or even an entire career!

Fast forward to when Rangers fill those holes

"... They still won't do anything!"

Rangers completely own the Isles and Devils during the Regular season
"They won't beat any of the good teams!"

Rangers win the conference
"They won't do it in the playoffs."

Rangers win the cup
".... f***"

The whole weighted ball theory is so dumb. The ball would fall to the bottom of the lottery machine and be less likely bounce and rise up to the chute. People will find a million ways to discredit draft lotteries. The entire idea of it isnt perfect and it never will be.

I've heard several Devils fans whining about it too. About how the whole second phase was BS. They won two years in a row for crying out loud. stfu. But hearing them bitch about it is GOLD to me.

Exactly. Yeah my theory is, by dropping the ball he activated the helium. Hahaha, it's all just so ridiculous. At least we Ranger fans have class, we would never question a ping pong ball and its whereabouts. If a ping pong ball didn't get to where it needed to go, we wouldn't question it......we would accept it because we're not used to winning or having any sort a luck.....until now.

Its either that the lottery was rigged or Isles and Devils fans trying so damn hard to convince themselves that the Rangers are so weak down the middle and on D that it won't matter while ignoring that they have a deep system that is better than both of theirs that they can tap into to land players.

Yeah, "weak" on D because Fox and DeAngelo are not Brian Leetch and Lindgren is not Pronger or Stevens in their primes.

No one? Who? Flyer fans? Gimme a break, you can hate on them all you want, but any, ANY hockey fan would take their decade of dominance and 3 cups!!

I'm sure you'll appreciate everytime some 4th line plug hooks, holds, and cheap shots our young top players

Take a step back. What you just said attacks something I never said and misses the actual point completely. Did you mean to quote something else

Or did actually take the two words "no one" literally ignore everything else and compound it all by adding stupid shit that addresses something I never even remotely commented on?

Everytime I start thinking "ok I gotta start going easier on people here" some post reminds me that "nope. It's deserved"

League needs revenue and this was best for the league. Add in a possible permanent staring date for the league and maybe we can finally see this sport get the recognition it deserves.
 
kind of a dumb thread. There hasn't been that much whining about this, outside of Devils and Isles fans. Most fans around the league are cool with us getting it.

Kind of a dumb response. Seeing it all over twitter from more than just Isles and Devils fans. If you dont like the thread, do not click on it.

He cares more about the rangers than you think. Thank God he doesn’t meddle

agreed. Difference is he knows he doesn't know anything about hockey and let's the hockey people do their thing. He thinks he knows basketball and is just a bigger basketball fan than a hockey fan, hence being much more visible at Knicks games.

at least it’s not a painful thread and we’re posting about Pittsburgh adding another weapon to haunt us for a decade.

Hey look - you and Isles fans can go at it over whos better right now

Jersey is simply trying to finish our first ever rebuild okay? Lmfao were new to these things since were the youngest in the Tri-State

And since its a Rangers board im not going to start a debate but the Isles and Devils are too very different teams when it comes to their futures - Isles are going for it now while NJ is building for later. Jersey already has Hischier Hughes Bratt Blackwood up on the roster plus three 1sts this year and our prospect pool, were gearing up for another long competitive streak as are you guys

Hughes/Lafreniere and Hischier/Kakko will be a rivalry for a long time while those ISLANDORKS loathe Barzal’s contract cause hes a meathead

What did I write to incur your wrath?
Boy, am in for it now!!

Based on the context of the thread, and your posts, it reads like Pitt fans you've interviewed, feel other hockey fans dont respect them due to some supposed rigging of the drafts ..

Maybe you should reread the post I quoted again? When you write in absolutes, this is how people will respond.

Next time I'll be more careful to respond to your thoughts and intentions, rather than what you put in print.

"Whew" that was a close one!

Oh dw. I just say that your post is dumb instead of wasting my time trying to politely explain what you missed. So you're not really 'in for it'.

Just put some actual thought into what you're saying next time, read and comprehend what your responding to, calm down, say three "our fathers" and dont let another "close one" happen again.
