Of the hints dropped and the names listed so far, MSL and Clarkson make the most sense.

I don't want either. Damn it, the whole point of moving Callahan is to get young players, prospects and/or picks.

MSL makes a lot of sense (for us) though I don't know why TB would do that. Sure hes 38 but he also is older, a lot better than Callahan, would instantly be our best forward, and can always be traded at the deadline next year for those prospects instead of Cally if we wanted to go that route.
 
How long till IncareraredBob hears about a legit person reporting news and then try to pass it off as his news when he calls it *done*

IBN SPORTS WRAP â€Â@IBNincarcerated 24m
NY pukes @NYRangers will shake it up after break... risky but could still could work

Like clockwork, theres Bob.
 
I have no idea where you guys are getting the "player Ranger fans would hate" hint from.

That was when Boomer was asked his opinion on Ott. Did not seem connected.
 
I agree that neither make sense for the Rangers. That's why I'd be pissed.

However, based on the information contained in the tweets and the posts we've read, they seem to be likely candidates.

well you have nothing to worry about, even at 38 years old Callahan would never get MSL.
 
Something happened with Marchand early in the year; i know I read or watched a report or two that suggested he could be had in the right deal; man, I cant take looking at that guy every night for the next IDK how many years;

and I really dont respect how he plays the game;
but he was clutch for the B's; gotta give him that...
 
I may be alone but I would welcome Marchand with open arms.

He was one of Gorton's picks as interim GM when he ran Boston's draft.

Dunno why Boston would move him.
 
Someone said Clarkson and he fits every part of it

Grit
Player we hate
Risky

Jesus please no

Does not at all fit the upgrade or possible first liner though. The only first liners I can think of, not on the teams he said no to, that we don't like are Ovechkin and maybe Eric Staal (since he caused the concussion to Marc) but neither of those make any sense at all. Maybe we don't like JVR since he's a former flyer but again, that's something that doesn't make sense.

id love Marchand. Rangers can use that attitude at times. maybe a guy like Burrows......
 
I don't like that statement kinda sounds like it would be Ott coming back?

i didn't read it like that at all...he was asked specifically if he likes ott and he said like carcillo he would like him if he was a ranger...

the thing that I most read into that is that everyone that thinks it would be a 'player we hate like carcillo' has completely misunderstood what he said and that is not at all what he was implying would be in return in a trade

Not alone, I would throw a ****ing fiesta if we got Marchand. Why in God's name would Boston trade him though? Marchand is like a modern Claude Lemieux.
 
wish it would be for evander kane...looking at the East some names id like to go after.

Spezza
Connolly
Patches
Tatar
Atkinson (I bet this is the guy we make the trade for...with Boomers BC connections)
Grabovski might be an interesting target if they add a first or something.


ideally id like to get Kane outta Winnipeg, but that aint happening, they arent making the playoffs so they have no reason to make that trade.

1. MSL makes no sense to me at all, from a Tampa Bay perspective even less so.

2. No way Clarkson is a second liner with more offensive upside. The guy scores most of his goals on the PP in front of the net. Doesn't fit AV's system 5 V 5....Only thing he has more of is grit, not Clarkson, guaranteed.

Still think Philly makes the most sense, Simmonds or possibly Hartnell. No way he could disclose the team, even if someone asked the right question..

Yea the more that I reread it then I started to understand it better.... maybe in the confusion I got scared haha although this Clarkson talk is worse
