When you have to clarify your message in every thread, it should become pretty apparent that the problem isn't the people you're talking to, it's that your messaging sucks.
And how has Ching Johnson not been mentioned yet?What is this thread lol
I posted about Lemiuex and his contributions. Pretty clear. I shouldn’t have responded to those who don’t read and certainly those few who love to sit around a further mess up an easy message.
i’m not here to clarify easy messaging and then continually re-clarify messages which somehow get derailed.
You are the one who brought up plus-minus
an idiot is one who can’t comprehend a post and is too lazy to read a thread yet chimes in. Not that you historically have demonstrated that on a daily basis.
those years were really something else. Those Muckler, Low, Trottier rosters.It was either Toms, Tibbets or Taylor that had a hat trick with Lindros.
Before Corona hit, I found it to be a slam dunk they'd buyout Hank, now, not so much. I don't see an Eichel acquisition happening for at least one more season. Buffalo will try hard to get back to the dance next year, and if they don't, Eichel will probably go off on them and want out.
Purinton was a dangerous fighter, but Langdon was so effective and so smart. watch this clip of him and Twist:
No one, No One, could hang with twist like this back then.
Now watch this long fight with Brashear in Brashear's prime:
Again, another good showing against a player with a much better reputation. Langdon may have been one of the most underrated enforcers ever.
Brashear was trash by the time we got him. I cant count on one hand the fights he won decisively in a Rangers jersey.
It was either Toms, Tibbets or Taylor that had a hat trick with Lindros.
Nope, can't say I have honestly. Especially since this is one of the threads I actually keep up to date in. Tell ya what though, post something intelligent for a change, and I'll commend you for it. After all, it'll be the first time I've seen that from you.
Toms.....don't remind me. The Tominator himself. PUTTY!!It was either Toms, Tibbets or Taylor that had a hat trick with Lindros.
It was Toms.I don't remember. If it was one of the three, it would have been Toms. Tibbets didn't play 15 games for the Rangers (and might not have scored three goals in his entire career). And Taylor was a center who I don't think would have ever played on a line with Lindros.
PUTTY!!! As I recall there was a contingent on the board waiting for me to come on that morning so that the ball breaking can commence. You remember my love for him?I don't remember. If it was one of the three, it would have been Toms. Tibbets didn't play 15 games for the Rangers (and might not have scored three goals in his entire career). And Taylor was a center who I don't think would have ever played on a line with Lindros.
Langdon was an unreal second half fighter.Langdon was not a big guy but he was so strong and had great stamina. He fought holding guys in tight and could get short shots off quick.
The thing I’ll always remember about Langdon was him saying he wasn’t even close to the toughest guy in the organization back then, Dan Cloutier was nuts and the guy nobody wanted to mess with. A couple years later Cloutier pounded Salo and challenged the whole Islander bench. Maybe someone can find that clip?
ABSOLUTE CLASSIC!!
Those teams induced some pretty heavy drinking. So there's a lot I don't recall. Some of those lineups and line combinations read like a 5 year old doing a Mad Lib.PUTTY!!! As I recall there was a contingent on the board waiting for me to come on that morning so that the ball breaking can commence. You remember my love for him?

Top 3 for me, may well be the Cloutier one, Orr-Fedoruk and McPhee-Tocchet.That Cloutier clip isn't hard to find. Very popular moment still.
what changed in your opinion? They resigned Wall which i thought was interesting and wondering if that speaks to their future plans.
Speculating - buyout Hank, move Georgiev promote Wall and Huska is in Hartford.
Chris Simon-Grant McNeil is a great one.Top 3 for me, may well be the Cloutier one, Orr-Fedoruk and McPhee-Tocchet.
They signed Wall because time ran out. He would hit UFA status in August had they not signed him. Also, they did not re-sign him. He wasn't under contract yet.
The Cairns-Purinton series shows you why people don't want fighting in the game.
