Driver was Lou's fault. He wasn't asking for anything more than what they were offering.... he just wanted a No Trade clause because he wanted to stay in the area...the Rangers gave him that opportunity Lou wouldn't. I never was upset with Driver. Not even a little bit.... Maclean way more than Driver even though he went out west first.Driver and Gomez too.
Rupp I still have a bit of animosity after the 2012 shove.
I don't like Rupp. He talks about NJ as a second class citizen to NY all the time... he's a moron anyway. It's almost like he doesn't count his time in NJ.
Gomez and Holik pissed me off....Holik more than anyone upset me at the time. But in both of those cases the writing was on the wall before it happened. Holik was angry over arbitration and
Gomez and his Dad were delusional
thinking Scott was superstar.
I was pissed they went to the Rangers but we kept winning so I never really built up hatred for them. I found their failures while we kept winning funny.... Parise came along and made us forget Gomez pretty quickly and Madden replaced Holik almost seamlessly...so I never spent much time hating them...
Niedermayer crushed us. I honestly believe we could've won another Cup after the lockout with Niedermayer. With Niedermayer we would have never seen the Mogilny, Malakhov and McGillis debacle..and we would have had a really strong defense for years. Screw that guy
