agreed.. lets keep building up for it..
maybe in 5 years after acquiring all these picks and prospects people want to acquire the Rangers will be ready to compete with Lundqvist is 37 years old, Mcdonagh is almost 30, Nash is 35, etc.
Or maybe we can look at the young pieces we have, say wow, this is a great core to build around and try to continue to build around it with younger guys.
Did we inquire about Seguin, how about F.Forsberg who was gotten for a complete steal in Erat.
All i hear from the Rangers is rumors about acquiring old and/or overpaid players. MSL, Nash, Richards, etc. Guys who are expensive and not young. Look at the good teams, they are all built around younger guys, outside of maybe San Jose (who have been living off the success of the shrewd trade for Thornton years ago).
We are incapable of doing that. What even happens five years down the road? Lundqvist, MSL, Nash, Girardi, Lundqvist, etc.
You can't think about just one year anymore, especially when you're a Rangers team that is not up there with Boston or Pittsburgh yet.
Honestly, even those teams seem to think longer term then the Rangers and they're extremely competative!
Or we can continue to revert back to the norm, signing or trading for the typical shiny new toy and do what we've been doing since Sather took over.
It's an approach that's been rinsed and repeated a million times with this Rangers management and yet, people still seem to miss out on the fact that it's never going to work.
