Mika Zibanejad may answer my question of “Will the NHL get its own version of Chris Davis from the Baltimore Orioles”

The bottom line with him is he's no longer able to play the game he played. A checking center man who could use his lethal shot on the PP1 and his ability to create in time and space.

Now he's a center man who's easy to check, who's lethal to our PP and our GAA and whos ice time is spent in outer space.

If he is in fact this sensitive then Drury needs his head examined for signing him to that deal and not trading him

What was the other alternative? Not celebrate an amazing milestone?

You should buckle up cause 400 assists and 700 points is next.

Why did he say no to the All Star game in 2022 ? What was his reasoning for that ?

The most I could find was a quote from Mika saying it was a personal situation in Sweden.

Drury was current-state Mika when Drury played here. A once 1st-2nd line center for about 5 years that stopped.trying or caring once he got paid by the Rangers. This team is essentially made up in his image based on his NYR tenure.

Drury was never even close to a 1C in his lifetime. A 2C in his prime at best. Also, Drury definitely cared while he was here. He was over the hill and injured which is a big difference. I can’t say I’m the biggest Drury fan, but some are these hot takes are asinine.

I wish the Rangers had a coach that would have the guts to scratch him.
