so, any interest in Radulov? having a Russian to help Buchnevich may not be a bad idea

I know a lot of people don't like Radulov but I always did

Brother had a 2 door. Loved driving it. Easy to clean, pretty much drove through anything. Only thing that sucked, you drive into a head wind on a highway, had to take it out of 5th gear or else your foot was on the floor with the gas pedal. Also ate up gas like a mofo.

Newer ones have a lot more power (2013+). Prior to that it could barely get out of its own way.

If you don't intend to take the roof and doors off it's not the best thing to buy. Living in Texas, mine spends 8+ months stripped bare.

Yeah I can imagine. My parents did at least do the right thing and get a manual, which was nice on the beach.

Once my current lease is up, I'm going pickup. I know this might come as a surprise, but Honda Accord's are not particularly conducive to being filled with 6 dozen goose decoys and driven out into a muddy wheat field.

Nope. I lived in Nashville during his last tour of duty. He strikes me as Semin 2.0.

There's a guy who works at a garage near my office that I see all the time with a 6.0L Wrangler. Didn't even know they made those until I saw it.

There's only one person talking about them and we all know he didn't actually get one.

Yeah, his was the 6 cylinder sport package. Bigger wheels etc. I absolutely loved it.

Loved my accord till an old lady totaled it driving through a red light. But yeah, not the best vehicle for hunting and what not.

Has skill but what a Richard. Not sure it would be smart to bring him in.

His biggest value would be coercing Buchnevich to go back to Russia IMHO, tbh.

Am I missing something? The article reads like they haven't decided yet.

You always hear the lazy Russian or they all just want to go back, but there was a really good article about Kucherov. Always liked him, but even more now.

Cant find it but the gist was how hard he worked to become a 2 way player and he never once thought of going back when he had some set backs. His goal was to play in the NHL.

I never thought Radulov was a lazy finesse like player like Semin, to me he was always a physical player who just couldn't commit to North America

He won't be on the market for long. Say what you want but the guy is a good coach. Can you really blame him for all the game 7 losses.

Seemed when he didn't get what he wanted he wanted to take his ball and go home.

Any chance in hell the Rangers can throw enough cash at him to get him to come run the PP?
