Player Discussion: Ryan McDonagh

[ccman68]

True shutdown defenseman who can do a bit of everything. Crazy how badly Yzerman fleeced the Rangers in that trade, and the one player of any value (Howden) that the Rangers got back in that trade was hated by Rangers fans and then dealt for peanuts to the Golden Knights, where he promptly turned back into the player he could be, being a big part of Vegas winning the 2023 Cup.

Hoping we can at least win another playoff round with McDonagh and potentially do more damage.

Rangers rushed Howden to the nhl for no goddamn reason. If we'd kept him he would've spent at least 2 years with the Crunch.

Most underrated piece of our defense the last 7 years including the years he wasn't here. Night and day difference when he's not around.

On the other hand the team has not really missed Sergachev in the slightest. We're the highest scoring team in the league and top-10 in GA.
