Hamrlik is very anti PA so I know you're pleased FS.
Now we have 2 first overall picks on the team!
why why why does this mean bickel? Did you ever for a second think Staal is hurt or Eminger or Gilroy aren't going tp play? ever singal thread is ruined by the name Bickel for one second just worry about what the thread is about... Jesus I hate this also but he is a PP cannon and insurance
Better than Bickel, fills the void while Staal is out for a little bit.
Staal WILL be out for at least a week, maybe even longer.
My friend who used to drive roll-off's got hit in the eye with a swinging rear door of a dumpster. He looked like a boxer who just got destroyed. His eye was closed shut for two weeks.
Even if its not broken, having ONE eye to see out of renders him unable to play. Bickel playing would be a disaster, kids in Hartford aren't ready. Hamrlik fills the void.
One of which was the #1 pick overall two years before the Rangers won the Cup. There are people on this board who weren't even born when Hamrlik was drafted.
Does this make 50 SPCs now? No room for Zucc's currently?
These guys are machines.
“@RealKyper: #Rangers gathering medical info 2day regarding Marc Staal but early indications r his eye injury isn't career threatening. Out indefinitelyâ€

Bah bye, Bicks.
Because he's 38 and has been a pretty consistent healthy scratch for a Caps team that's 14 in the East.

Hamrlik is a better option than Pickels and Gilroy.
I have no problem with this move. Much better vet depth on the blueline and give up NO assets to get it done.
No lose situation.
A neat little tidbit. When i first started playing hockey 20 years ago, my team was the Lightning. And when we played in this league, all the kids used to pick their numbers for the players on the team. I picked #44 for Hamrlik and have worn that # for the next 20 years. I've always had a soft sentimental spot for him for that, and now its pretty cool to see him playing for the Rangers after all these years
