I dont think anyone here is my friend. Just a bunch people talking or arguing about hockey. I will end it there as these things seem to escalate and ruin the blog. - nyrangers2
you played right into what Tom loves to do around here, played you like a fiddle
the whole thing has been all misinformation, Larry Brooks hasn't gotten enough heat for the whole thing either
he's the one who said it was a done deal - jimbro83
Brooks is the POS who dragged his wife into this. I know Emily Kaplan reported on it to begin with. But it was from a “Jacob wants his wife to have her career” angle and not a “let’s pile on him and his family” angle

The biggest takeaway here is that Brooks is an absolute scumbag. I have always hated him and loved when Boyle ripped him a new one.

Like how can anyone respect him. I like Mollie Walker and she’s probably working at the NYPost because it’s an opportunity early in her career but Jfc the NYPost is hot garbage

Maybe she likes The Post's agenda and mission? - JRR1285
Nobody under the age of 45 does unless they’ve been kicked in the head by a horse. Regardless of what your political ideology is. Somehow they built a sports section that’s somewhat legitimate
I mean I can have the rational version if you want.
Drury is NOT at fault for Trouba exercising his 15 team NTC. That's a fact. Gorton made the mess of that giving into Trouba and his agent.
Trouba is at fault for holding the Rangers hostage to the other 15 teams that could potentially make a deal. (I refuse to blame his wife, if his wife is the casue of this, the Rangers are weaker than we all know.)
Drury is at fault for making Trouba the captain and giving him (Trouba) power and responsibility he clearly didn't deserve.
Drury's mess of this now is his fault. That just the reality of where they are. - blacksheep1
Not sure you can really say he's "holding them hostage". His wife has a full time residency she needs to complete to be a doctor and they have a young baby. If he's playing in another city it becomes incredibly difficult to care for the child and his wife. Even with the financial means to pay for full-time child care.
Here’s a smith article. Good point we haven’t really mentioned is he’ll be motivated so he can potentially get one more NHL contract and some more millions

I wonder what Trouba will say the first time Brooks tries to interview him.
Majority of trades and FAs are 95% done. Most of the work will have to be done at the tdl. I think they absolutely make the PO. They just aren’t closer to being a true contender. And as of now Drury has his hands tied. I would call it a failure so far bc they seem like they are running it back. Not moving kakko or handling trouba better crippled them. They need to improve 5v5 but really haven’t. Individuals players will be fun to watch for sure. As a team skeptical bc Drury doesn’t instill much confidence now.
These are the facts - nyrangers2
I'm on the dont move KK side. They played him with Mika and CK20 and it didn't work, even when they put Panarin on that line the black hole called Mika sucked him down.
He has this year to improve, hopefully they break up Mikas and Ck20.
