Speculation: Trade Rumors/Speculation Part VIII: Trades for no reason

[Idlerlee]

I will miss whoever is moved Even Pouliot whose gross miss enabled Brassard to tie the game

 

[Doctyl]

Lolno.

He's 36. Give me a break.

hes better than miller

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

Why do I keep deluding myself into thinking we're gonna steal Nail Yakupov

It's the hope I can't stand

 

[Stasis]

Balvenie double wood 12. What pain?

Single Malt Scotch aged in Bourbon barrels, hmmm. I wanted to get an authentic American/Kentucky Bourbon this go around. I tend to run with single malts, usually Islay. Bowmore, Ardbeg, Lagavulin. Smoke/peat. I'll have to try the Balvenie at some point.

Back to topic, trades AND lack of trades both equally scare me this year. I have no idea what's going on with this team and I don't know what will fix or improve it. That's my pain =)

well we almost stole stamkos...wouldnt be the 1st time we nearly acquired a recent 1st overall pick.


i blame tampa for our offense

In my whiskey collection I have some Dalmore Aurora 45 Year Old 1964 Oloroso Sherry Cask; Springbank 1969 34 Year Old, Glenlivet 51 yo, Johnnie Walker Blue Label King George V, Midleton Very Rare and some other very nice gems. None of them will make this team any better ---

well the Rangers did have Alex Daigle back in the 90s, maybe the Rangers can sign Patrick Stefan

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

I feel like I need to go out and get myself a bottle of whiskey for this.

Maybe an Elijah Craig 12? That should ease some of the pain!

For the Rangers I usually need to resort to Wild Turkey

I have a King George V, which was a wedding gift, as well. I bet that sherry aged is incredible. They might not make the team better, but they make me feel better about the team. Well, maybe not. I feel pretty badly about the team. They just help me ignore it.

if anyone gets moved before the deadline tonight ill be shocked... i bet Rangers first trade will be after the olympics.. Sather will wait and mess it up

Should the Rangers trade Callahan or Girardi?

Not much of a literary masterpiece

I can just imagine the conversations going on with the management:

"So what do we do?"

"Recall J.T. Miller?"

"Brilliant! Break out the cigars. We're done here, boys!"

it is pretty good. I have a bottle in the bar. I would describe it as a little sweet.

nah this sounds more like it

Clark askes Sather "So what should this organization do?"

Sather says "get rid of the dead weight like Pyatt Pouliot and Del Zotto"

Clark says "well we really want to get rid of the dead weight but for that to happen the other team will have to want the dead weight"

Sather "its ok if i dont improve this team. im gonna stay GM of the Rangers until i pass away"

I'm pretty sure that its written into Sather's contract that if he dies but comes back as a zombie walking dead style he still gets to run the Rangers.

Reality.

That was an April Fools joke. This was addressed some time ago by Sather and the former Tampa GM.

 

[Punxrocknyc19*]

[Kwayry]

You guys should try this, right in front of the garden.

Brilliant...only thing missing is horse teeth playing the guitar with his band ask Glen what that sport they play on ice is called.

Will not make team better but shows you know what to put on a top shelf!

Cheers!

Would like to get Stastny in the off-season, trade Del Zotto + Fast for Tlusty, let Girardi and Callahan walk, and sign Phaneuf

Kreider Stepan Nash - 2.2 + 3.075 + 7.8
Hagelin Stastny Tlusty - 2.25 + 6.5 + 2.6
Zuccarello Brassard Kristo - 1.8 + 3.2 + 1.1
Miller Boyle Dorsett - .895 + 2.2 + 1.63
Lindberg - .675


McDonaugh Phaneuf - 4.7 + 7.2
Staal Stralman - 3.975 + 3.3
Moore McIlrath - 1.4 + .7
Falk - 1.2

Goalies - 8.5 + .562

= 67.562


Obviously would be ideal to trade Callahan and Girardi if this was a plan, but I don't trust management to pull that trigger.

Bring in Mason Raymond

Tlusty is overrated. We can get more for DZ and Fast.
