(frank)ing Chris Drury...
- rmiethaner

Tim Murray approaches his job like Brett Favre... Always looking to take a shot down field. Not the type that will check down and always rely on the safe play. Will he get picked off on occasion? Sure. But i'd rather get picked off going for it than settle for punting on forth down every time

They're royally (frank)ed.

They only have $2.3 million in cap space and they have 9 guys on the team making $800k or less.
- BINGO!

royally is a bit of a stretch, totally is a better word I would use in this context.

I think he changes the way he manages this team once we are better. Until that time, I agree, he will take more chances than most.

I don't want it to. Will he make more mistakes? Sure. Will he also gamble and pay off? Absolutely. He is the anti-Darcy. I'll take that every d*** time.

Mike Milbury is an anti Darcy too

Rats

Tim Murray will get knocked down 9 times. But will get up 10

Not that I don't thing this is a good move for the Rangers, I really don't understand Vesey's thought process here. Honestly, when I saw his list of 8, I put the Rangers at 7, only ahead of the Devils(had buffalo 4th, so I didn't think he was coming here).

I thought it an odd choice as well based on the criteria some said was important but whatever.

Here we go with the Murray bashing, it never ends on this blog.

Garth's thread isn't locked, yet, but it is starting to get ugly in there. Just a bit.

They want Darcy back.

Not that I agreed with everything Murray has done but show me a horrible move he has made that has cost this team immensely.

I think it's a Leafs blog.

I wonder how Turbo is doing?
- rmiethaner

Do you think he actually has any sources? Or do you think he's like the 75 ish people on Hockeybuzz that pretend to? I don't know his history so just asking?

I just find it funny we are patting him on the back for not getting Vesey. No one cares about the 3rd rounder

I could care less about the 3rd rounder, they are thrown around like a dime store hooker.

Is this the bar we are setting? OK, if he pours gasoline on Eichel and lights him on fire I'll let you know

TM took a calculated risk and I give him credit for taking a chance. Past management would sit on the sideline trying to convince us we had no chance. Now that this is over let's get back to completing the rebuild. As long as he didn't go to the Leafs.


I really have no problem with GMTM, but I think most Leafs fans would also say.
As long as he didn't go to the Sabres. Garf & all you Sabre homers can start the pity
party. Like I said, at least GMTM tried, but he's classy enough to not attend the party.

Vesey might get wrecked when he plays the likes of TOR,BUF,BOS etc.....
especially on the road.....oh & by the way GO LEAFS GO GO LEAFS GO

Wouldn't mind Jesper Fast

We need someone. Current LW roster won't cut it

He may know someone who is a friend of a friend of a player, I honestly don't know.

There is just no way he knew anything that was going on with this situation.

And I have no problem with him at all as a poster, so that is not a dig at him.

you like nothing that he's done, most of us know how you feel about him. You're bitter Myers is gone but it's a 3rd pick it doesn't matter.

No rush but I agree with you.

People female dog about him all the time, I'd like to understand why.

He cleared out a bunch of guys he didn't want to build a team he wants, I just don't see any moves as of yet that have cost this team. I am willing to give him more than two years to build this team just as I would with any other GM.

Edit: On a side note, I didn't think this site would autocorrect and change words to female dog. Classic.

Let's all not come down on Turbo, he stood by what he was told and I give him credit for that. My source isn't always right things change at the last minute.
