he's a fit, a right handed shooting forward who can score, play on the top 6, and makes the team heavier.

That's where they played Jesper Fast this past year

but, gonna take some moving money around to make that happen

I wouldn't mind Okposo, but you have to realize you're essentially acquiring a TJ Oshie. A good hockey player who will score between 18-25 goals each year depending on how good of a season he's having.

At TJ Oshie's price tag, sign me up. But at 6M+, stay the fack away.

In that case, Jordan was ridiculous. But I think Gretzky is in the same conversation. Just look at how far ahead of Messier he is in all time points.

- rangerdanger94


I don't think Jordan is clear cut. I think Ruth and Gretzky have to be considered in that conversation. I think the argument for Ruth is how much better he was than his contemporaries. The year he hit 60 homers, the next highest total was really far below that if I recall correctly.

Edit: Turns out Gehrig hit 47 homers that year.

If he just played even somewhat physical, I would have loved to have kept him around. Just a waste of a big-ish body.

How pissed would we be if Gorton signs both Okposo & Martin.

was listening to Boomer and Carton this morning and Carton was pretty much implying that Martin to the Rangers is a done deal because of the Boomer factor

Furious actually.

Those are two classic trap free agent signings.

I called it a few weeks ago. Boomer had a heartfelt one on one w Matty & is convincing him to take a cheap deal & sign w the Rangers.

Yea, we talked about Martin a lot a week or so back. IF somehow he took a low ball deal he would be a great 4th line fit. Problem is some idiot is gonna give him a Prust 2012 type offer.
