[friedman] Michael Grabner on Waivers for Buy Out
4EverRangerFrank replied to Lord Al's topic in Hockey Around the Globe
Dude I don?t know who exactly but I?m not in favor of 1-year deals for bags of pucks and jocks. Grabner is not that, but these other guys? Let?s work in the younger hungry guys guys and keep our eyes open for that Prospal or Tikkanen guy later when our project is nearly finished. I?m not up on all the players league-wide like you guys are or the giant pool of prospects. It just seems like our recent moves are not aligned with the rebuild. -

Anyone order his jersey yet? -
[friedman] Michael Grabner on Waivers for Buy Out
4EverRangerFrank replied to Lord Al's topic in Hockey Around the Globe
I get the thinking about him filling a bottom six role but doesn?t that mean he takes a roster spot from a guy who can grow into that role...or more? I hear you about how we?d have missed the playoffs this season but so what? We weren?t a playoff team anyway. Developing a core AND a supporting cast is important to me. I?m already resigned to this season being another development year so let?s have that. Yeah, Prospal played a great role but I?d much rather add that kind of guy as one of the final pieces to the puzzle later than sooner. -
^This!^ I was reading through the thread before posting - NYR 'run-n-gun' style with smaller, faster players (bring back Zuccc and Miller) with NO CHECKING is exactly what the doctor ordered (no pun intended) so if the NHL adopted this idea, we are the next Cup winner. No checking? We win. Start passing out the dress uniforms. LOL :thumbs:

Such a talent...RIP guitar god. Stern did a wonderful tribute on his show today.

Welcome to the BSBH - we are always happy to add new NYR fans on the bus. So many great comments already, and as you have read, these guys are so friendly and knowledgeable that this site is well worth a daily visit. I want to emphasize that NYR play at MSG - Madison Square Garden - the world's most famous arena. So many wonderful moments in history have occurred there and to think that there is an event happening almost every night of the year is amazing in itself. My son and I took in a Knicks game in the afternoon and a Rangers game at night and that was really cool. Enjoy the ride and fan real hard by sending the team good vibes. Onward to the Cup!

[tsn] Toronto, Simmonds Have Mutual Interest
4EverRangerFrank replied to Phil's topic in Hockey Around the Globe
The eye-test on Simmonds seems to indicate a guy who no longer plays with that shift-in and shift-out hard edge. I would have like him as a NYR a few years back but not now. Am I wrong? -

confirmed: Rangers Buyout Final Year of Henrik Lundqvist's Contract

I?d have to want that jersey first. For me it?s CHI or WIN or VEG -
[brooks] Rangers "aren't even close," says JD
4EverRangerFrank replied to Phil's topic in New York Rangers
I was never suggesting we need 12 years to get to the promised land but In spite of the good run we had this season I don?t see us being that close when compared to teams in the finals. We?re not big, not nearly physical enough and we don?t have 12 forwards and 6 d-men working as a cohesive unit. I see progress for sure and our trajectory and timeline so far has been great but...excluding a Cinderella-like run were not a multi-year threat just yet. I?m being cautious in my praise ?out of an abundance of caution.? (My NYR heart cannot take much more sports related disappointment.) ;-) -

If he still has wheels... While I?d prefer seeing someone develop with the team it makes sense if Grabs has the speed. It could also give us a look at how well Kreider?s primary asset will look like down the road. -
Very well written piece that is a compelling read. ?The moment I entered Walt Disney World, I felt extremely sad. I was driving alone in a hypersanitized rental car, wearing two masks and a pair of disposable gloves, with all the windows rolled down to blast out any lingering virus. Florida?s atmosphere was gushing in all over, swamping me with its jungly breath. The dashboard thermometer said 100 degrees. The freeway took me past multiple theme parks ? SeaWorld and Universal Studios and a Bible-based attraction called The Holy Land Experience. At one point, I passed a fake volcano. Billboards advertised gun shows and hospitals and lawyers and Botox.? https://t.co/XFllRKtNNc

'Borat' Sequel Lands at Amazon Prime Video
4EverRangerFrank replied to Phil's topic in TV, Music, & Movies
The promos photo of him lying on his side wearing only a mask...as a cup with the strap pulled over his head is a hoot. I can't say that I really appreciate, or get the humor, but he has marked out a niche. -

4EverRangerFrank replied to Phil's topic in New York Rangers
Patience is key. 12 years worth? I hope we don't have to wait that long. I have faith in JD since he's been through this before and knows what it looks like from the other side of the glass. I'm good with whatever JD does at this point. -

4EverRangerFrank replied to Phil's topic in New York Rangers
I pray this doesn?t happen. I?d be rooting for the team win but the sadness of having beaten Henrik - especially if he was in net for the penultimate game, possibly in drama riddled OT - would taint our Cup memories forever. We don?t need that as fans. -

4EverRangerFrank replied to Lord Al's topic in Hockey Around the Globe
What?s the wisdom of such a one-year deal though? If you plan for him being gone after a year what did you gain? I?d much rather a younger, healthier player in the lineup who has the potential to help the team for a long time.
