Are we really going to re-sign a 28-year-old to the gigantic contract he'll likely demand? We're already saddled with long-term, big-money deals to Panarin, Kreider & Trouba which very may well cost us Buchnevich, who I thought was one of the most important pieces of our roster this year.

probably. And those who make a habit of doing 180’s will be all for it followed by against it within one year.

IMO, only way Zibby stays is if Kreider and maybe both Kreider and Trouba are moved. Cannot sign everybody and expect to sign the kids in the future. It’s impossible credit hos
 
lol. just peachy. Wonder if BUF prefer Kakko + or Laf straight up.
 
Drive down that leverage Jack. Reinhart also showing discontent, Ristolainen is basically saying the same, "Where ever I am next year" stuff. If you can't hold onto both Reinhart and Jack, it's best to trade both of them away. Pretty plain now what's to come.
 
What about something simple for the Oilers/Rangers? Something like:

Khaira for Hajek/Reunanen

Gives the Oilers a young, cheap depth d-man. Gives the Rangers a 4th liner who plays a heavy game. Similar ages.

Or the Wild, as they will more than likely lose Dumba. Hartman for one of the Rangers young d-men and say Howden?

hysterical?

Gorton and Davidson have both built cup winners. What's Dolan built aside from a pile of sexual harassment suits? You should not be happy that he's getting involved.

Neither of them have done that. They were part of laying the foundation for teams that eventually won, but both of those teams won long after they left. In JD's case, 6 (or was it 7?) years after. Would be exactly what will have gone down here should this team actually win in the next few years.

You are being hysterical because there is NO evidence that he's getting involved.
 
Something stinks here and all signs point to both Sather AND Drury.

If there really was an issue with the "culture" and Drury has been around long enough to have been an integral part of building that culture, how is it that when the dust settles JG and JD are gone and CD gets both spots with that overrated POS Sather consulting.

Sather has to be the most overrated front office guy the NHL has ever seen.

If he has surgery, he is going to need 6 weeks for recovery, and then he will be late with offseason workouts. I have had disc surgery on my lower back. I am perfectly fine now. I am 47 and still play.

Not getting involved? LMAO! Well I suppose the top of our front office just fired itself then. Committed seppuku.

I hate to pull the 'how long have you been a fan???' card because it's like the modern version of 'can you even skate backwards???' on these forums, but you speak like someone who 1) does not know Dolan's MO, 2) has never read a lick about the Knicks, 3) has no recollection of 2012 or pre 2004, 4) has no interest in reading between the lines.
