I heard Sather on 32T's a few months ago when EF and Kyle took on the show on the road. Sather sounded old. Slats is 81. He is not the same guy who gave up the GM duties ten years ago.
I'm sure Dolan has hockey people he consults with, but we don’t know who they are. Back in 2000, Gary Bettman recommended Sather to Dolan, but these days, Gary and Jim hardly speak. OTOH, the NHL did rent the Sphere for the NHL draft.
Slats had a agreed upon trade with one of the owners of Tampa Bay for Stamkos. The GM and other owner stopped it from going through.RANGERS LOOK TO SCORE HEATLEY ON THE CHEAP
MONTREAL — NHL general managers arriving here for this Entry Draft weekend have been met with gridlock created by a surfeit of big-money contracts on the trade market and an absence of teams …nypost.com
The rumor that Sather offered (an overpaid) Rozsival and (A guy they were about to cut loose) Zherdev for Dany Heatley (A 28 year old with 180 goals in his last 4 seasons) was one of my favorite rumors because of just how insulting it was. Truly legend status if that's what the deal on the table was.
hopefully not hereI'll make a prediction that a certain former Chicago Blackhawks coach will be coaching next season
Cool. He’s going to look great with carrick and brodz

Yes, he’d be signing his ELC to start this year in that case, which would burn the first year. The way around it is to sign an ATO with Hartford and have his ELC start next year like they’re doing with Noah Laba right now.What's the rule on ELCs? Does Perreault burn a year if he plays a single game?
I mean, in terms of habits, those are probably my two choices tbhCool. He’s going to look great with carrick and brodz
Maybe I'm way off, but I feel like Drury is hell bent on making the playoffs. Maybe he's worried about his job if they miss the postseason. I don't know. If he thinks GP can help give them a jolt up front, I don't see why he wouldn't sign him and play him. I get it, burning a year of the ELC doesn't seem smart. I wouldn't do it. But my gut says Drury thinks otherwise.
He did make the JT Miller trade with conditions that strongly benefit the Rangers if they make it. It's really on the players lack of heart if we dont make it. There's no hockey reason why we shouldnt comfortably be in a playoff spot right now. The team may not have been a "cup contender" coming in but they were playoff caliber at minimum.
The ghost of Billy Reay. Orval Tessier.Jeremy Colliton? Or Pete Muldoon?
For a minute there I thought he was talking about a Harlem prostitute."PoHo"?
