Pretty sure they have access to dedicated physicians for that. Possibly but once he got here and continued playing; that may be the part where the onus falls on him.

Valriera Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 There's really nothing to see here. Could be as straightforward as a pay dispute since he's been here forever. Will be missed, obviously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Br4d Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 58 year olds are always at risk. They're usually very expensive compared to a likely new hire. It's also entirely possible that room is being made for a desired hire for the next head coach however sometimes it's just time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you polled the board probably 50% would support the notion that he was running a donut-smuggling ring bringing Big Sugar into the lockerroom. But it's probably not anything that serious.

Check this out: Ramsay was caught slipping roofies into the Gatorade behind the bench during Game 5 of the Devil's series. This in turn caused the Rangers to play like shit and go into a hypnotic trance that caused the disastrous collapse, making them play like morons and lose. Turns out Igor was immune to the drug, and the "S" on his chest repelled any and all toxic substances ingested. Apparently the drugs affected Fox, Panarin, and Zibby the most. The drug is known to wear off immediately after a new coach is named. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 2 hours ago, jsm7302 said: I bet Kane shouldn't have been acquired or be allowed to play but he somehow vouched that Kane would be okay to play. That's my guess. Drury saw it as incompetence and unacceptable as a professional. That or the opposite. He said damaged goods and Drury said tape him up. Gotta figure there are other injuries that the trainer was uncomfortable clearing. Possibly Lindgrens shoulder. Gauthiers concussion. Other things we don't know about. The Rangers are pretty tight with the training staff. These guys have been here for years as we're the people they replaced. Obviously there's always a time to change things up or to say goodbye. This is kinda strange though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Clearing the spot so Knob can bring his own guy in? Rammer's time machine failed with a broken Kane hence he was shown the door? Curious move for sure, seems to have been the least of their problems. I wonder at some point if Allaire just says fuck it (maybe when Igor's contract is up) and says check please.

jsm7302 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I feel like Drury wants these guys uncomfortable coming back next year for a fresh start completely. This could be good..... I don't hate the idea. Or Jim Ramsey was stealing pucks and they caught him red handed!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a good argument to be made for having the entire coaching staff outside of Benoit be prickly pears that keep the players on their toes. This is because outside of Igor nobody is giving the Rangers 100% of their capabilities right now. I love Mika but he's capable of more at 5v5 than we've seen. Same for Fox and definitely the same for Panarin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
