I recall being very excited when they got him, because you know he’s a big lumbering fella. He didn’t quite pan out as I hoped
- Slimtj100

Didn't think he was that bad while he was here. Seemed like he was here for more than 12 games.

Didn't he score a goal or 2 in his 1st game, but pretty much nothing after?

8 points in 12 games and a physical presence.

I got kicked off one team for throwing my darts across the bar in a temper tantrum lmao


Me and jimmy honed our skills years ago when our dad had a store selling jewelry and, yes, dart equipment lol

He has the soft tip board, so no holes in the wall. Player with steel tips a few months ago, and that felt weird after using the others for a few years.

Of course, makes perfect sense.

NOT a cat person. I have enough people in my life that won't listen to me. I don't need to keep animals around that will act like they are superior to me as well!
- Tonybere

So that's why you are not a cat person. My rescue cat will slap her toy ping pong balls faster past you to make you look like Mr. Five Hole Deluxe. She slaps more of them perfectly off passes on the fly in 15:00, than the amount of shots the Rangers combined take on the fly for those receiving at least 15:00 of ice time.

The metal ones are very much a feel thing. Weight is in grams and one gram off here or there makes you throw like Charlie Scheen in Major Leauge

Definitely lighter. Also noticed a difference with different soft tip weights.

Those 1sts will be in the late 20s for the Foote deal, same with Carlo and Debrusk deal. When you break it down it’s a big risk for the Rangers for a proven top pair dman, the deals could look something like this.
Foote(prospect) 28th overall in 2018, 25th overall in 2019

Debrusk(good not elite) Carlo (solid defensively but not offensively) and the 29th overall

When you break it down like that is it really crazy to think? Sergachev would be tricky and probably require another piece to be added but if McD is willing to sign an extension maybe not.

- nyrangers9479


If Tampa was willing to include Sergachev in any trade for McDonagh, the trade would have already gone down. Gorton, in contrast to Sather a few years back, has the control this time over Yzerman. They should wait for a possible bidding war to occur (likely among Tampa , Boston and Toronto), and if not so, simply retain McDonagh until attempting to trade him either just prior to or during the draft.
In last night's Toronto 6-3 win over Columbus, Leafs d'man Jake Gardiner left the game injured in the 1st Period with a lower body injury, believed at that time, to just be a slight strain or muscle spasm. But the Leafs sidelined him the remainder of that game, to have him be further checked by their medical staff today. That could make the Leafs become more interested in McDonagh, as opposed to being earlier just a side thought for them.
There could also be the possibility of those three teams bidding higher, solely to prevent McDonagh from landing with one of those two others, due to their battle for 1st to 3rd in the Atlantic, and any possible playoff match up occurring.

I would prefer players that are young and already playing in the NHL as opposed to 25+ in the first round where the player drafted has only a 50% chance of playing over 100 NHL games.

I agree on this, however the Rangers do not have an internal cap like some teams. So getting these picks can be used to pry away a young talent from a team who might be hesitant to pay that player.

Some really nice names on that rfa list, unfortunately most will probably be re-signed

Ehhh those 20+ picks are risky though. They can work out, but like I said before only 50% of players drafted 25+ play over 100 NHL games. That’s why while sometimes it seems like a lot those high picks really aren’t worth much

If you like girls with more metal than a pin cushion, lots of tattoos and generously chubby.
