NFT: Rangers/Devils at MSG

ShockNRoll : 4/3/2024 8:22 am
Let's get this party started early. Rangers didn't do themselves any favors against Pittsburgh the other night, I expect they'll come out and play a much better game tonight. Devils didn't fare too well against Pittsburgh last night either, blowing a 3-1 lead going into the 3rd period by giving up 5 unanswered to lose 6-3. Penguins aren't dead yet, but with that loss last night, I think the Devils' chances are shot.

Looks like Rempe will be back in the lineup and Cuylle will come out again. I figured Laviolette would keep Rempe out of this one to avoid the sideshow that is inevitable with MacDermid, or maybe he feels like they need a shot in the arm after a rough outing against Pittsburgh and a less than stellar performance in Arizona. Cuylle seems like an odd choice to come out. As others alluded to in the last game thread, Vesey has had a difficult go of it lately, maybe he should get a game or two in the press box.

how come we didn't try to keep JT Miller? Was he considered a bust?
It was idiotic at the time, he was literally a fucking TOSS IN on the McDonagh trade.

Kovalev and Zubov, Nedved, he couldn't wait to get rid of them.

Zubov - one of only four hall of famers drafted by the Rangers, and he played almost his entire career elsewhere. Sigh.
Broke my heart when they traded Zubov

I get the intent of the trade, and it's not like they dealt him for some bum. However, it was so quintessentially Rangers for Luc Robitaille to play the worst seasons of his career in his stint in NY.

You get Ulf Samuelsson to play WITH Zubov, not instead of. Stupid move.

Not only did we not try to keep him, we used him as an add-on in the McDonagh trade. Will go down as maybe the worst trade in Rangers history. Definitely the worst in my lifetime. He was not considered a bust, but I think the Rangers did not plan to resign him when his contract expired so they shipped him off to get something for him.



Ever hear of a guy by the name of Rick Middleton?


UGH! As if they didn't have bars in Boston. Compounded the awful Espo trade with one even worse. A dark day.
Neil Smith thought he could replace Zubov with Bruce Driver

It was not a well-thought out plan.

Fucking hate that trade still to this day. Lucy sucked here.
