Burmistrov is another josefson except with even more offensive talent that he just can't put together. Wouldn't mind taking a flier on him since he can play all forward positions, but I just don't see us offering up the best deal.
I'm kind of surprised he's pulling a turris. He and Kane never had attitude problems in Atlanta but have apparently imploded in Winnipeg. Meanwhile bogosian did the exact opposite. That's a tough one to figure out.

I feel the same way. I like Burmistrov, but wouldn't be willing to sacrifice too much of value for him right now. Some other team would best our offer.

lol Richards has been scratched and is avoiding the locker room according to TG and others

what a f***ing bum

 

[New Jersey Devils]

OH man that is gold. The $60 million dollar man is scratched in an elimination game.

 

[CerebralGenesis]

I don't blame him. They signed a guy and tried to make him play this Torterella system and he can't do it.

worked pretty well when they won a Cup together

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Wonder if last game was his last in a rags jersey?

they didn't play the same style. good try

Wonder if last game was his last in a rags jersey?

More than likely. Him and Havlat are probably good for amnesties, assuming they are healthy for it. Who else would like to enter the pool?

 

[Desert Devil]

Just another name on the long, long list of golden boy ufa's that have gone terribly wrong for the Rangers. It's truly laughable.

Gaborik, Richards, and coming soon...Nash.

Burmistov could be the type of young forward a young Dman and a pick could be gotten for, but I have no clue what his market value is at the moment.

I can't imagine it'd be too high. He's essentially quitting on his team and hasn't really been lighting up the scoresheet. Hopefully Lou can pull a 5th rounder for a Russian deal again.

 

[DEVILS ALL THE WAY*]

I would love Brad Richards at 3M$ per.

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

I'd flip one of our D prospects for Burmistrov. If they ask for anything more, politely tell them to **** off and walk away.

@ richards

We don't need Burmistrov, our bottom 6 is not an issue, we need help in the top 6, not adding more bottom 6 guys that are being slotted in the top 6

You Sir have comprehended the entire dilemma.

This was made when he first signed, and everything they said is coming true.

Endings: Brad Richards

Doubt it, plus if they suffer an injury tonight he'll be reinserted for Game-5.

You're talking about game 5 already?

Do you always assume they're gonna win the next game?

Who do you think wins tonight's game?

Who do you think wins tonight's game?

For the first time in the series I'm gonna say the Bruins win. A Rangers win will not shock me though.

 

[NJDevs26]

Literally nothing would surprise me, I could see a Ranger blowout a la our Game 4 against Carolina in 2006, and I can see a total implosion and a Boston blowout a la Lakers-Mavs in the NBA playoffs a couple years ago. Obviously a close game wouldn't surprise me either way.
