Aww, Arnott went to the dark side. I can't hate him, because of 2000, but man, that's going to be weird.

Their bottom6 may be the slowest in the league
Rupp, Asham, Boyle, Arnott........Kreider has been a healthy scratch, Pyatt is meh speed and Hagelin is only fast one

I look forward to watching us skate circles around the Rangers bottom-6. Arnott isn't going to solve any problems over there.
He's not what he used to be, but I don't want to see him in a Rags jersey. Was hoping he would go back to Dallas.

Meh, whatever. Arnott is finished. 2000 is a very long time ago and my more recent memories of him are not good ones.

Any one have a list of Devils that the Rangers signed later?
Arnott, Sykora, Holik, Gomez, MacLean, Driver, Asham, Dunham, Malakhov, prob a ton more.

I bet a friend that Kreider wouldn't hit 12 goals (the equivalent of a 20 goal season in this shortened season).
Feeling very happy about that bet.
He does add some playmaking ability, but he is very slow. He is smart enough to be good with his positioning though. He doesn't scare me, but he does make the Rangers better.
We've probably signed a bunch of ex-Rangers too. Zidlicky, Mottau, and Rachunek leap to mind immediately, I'm sure there are more. With so much turnover in the league from year to year, it's hard not to have guys who have played on every other team.

You can say that again. The Rangers sign or acquire pretty much anybody who was ever a Devil or a Penguin at a point. Actually, the amount of ex penguins they have had ever since the mid 90's in just staggering.

They even had Oliwa for a half year. Yes, the Devils have had some former Rangers in the past but it seems like the list would be fairly shorter. Nemchinov was probably one of the better players the Devils had after his stint on the Rangers.

The Oilers are complete garbage in their own zone. Who's the idiot on the main board that said the Oilers have a better blueline than the devs?
Personally, I think EDM and WSH would make good trade partners. EDM needs to get credible and Washington needs to clean house, start fresh and reload.
I'm not looking up numbers/cap space up but Hall, Yakupov, Musil, Klefbom, Horcoff(for cap space), Dubnyk and a 1st to Wash for Ovechkin, Alzner, Holtby or Neuvirth and maybe a pick or a prospect.
Edm then needs to send out another young player/high pick to get a Callahan/Ladd type to help lead that team.
Ovie might hate it or welcome a change/away from the spot light type situation.
Throw it on the trade board and watch it disintegrate.
