Per a league source: Stand down on a Karlsson deal today. As you were. Of course, if something occurs later on, I'm only the messenger.

Just guessing here, but feels liek Melnyk put the stop to this. He'd rather finish in last than have Karlsson get the last laugh. Dorion is a terrible GM, but even he can't work like that.

He wasn’t playing in the playoffs I know that. Only thought of it because Karlsson is RHD and they’d have no room for him, with G and Coburn.

I don’t think Coburn is hurting them so much with the cap, like it’s not imperative they give him up in a salary dump. But the Rangers could flip him at the deadline so it makes more sense for them. I guess TB could also

Cap Friendly says Coburn is LHD and only has one more year at 3.7MM.

I have the same feeling. He would rather him suffer in Ottawa and try to trade him at the deadline or let him walk than send him to a contender now.

Idk, I was joking. I actually hope they take two of Ryan, Callahan and Coburn. Serve as the dumpster in exchange for picks and prospects.

Callahan has a modified ntc. Has anyone heard if he’s been asked for a list? Has it occurred to anyone that maybe at his age he doesn’t want to go to a rebuilding team?

After 13 NHL seasons, @aburr14's playing career has come to an end. Burrows says goodbye to the game here: http://ply.rs/ARiq30kPIP5


My favorite Burrows memeory was when he went after Zucc and Kreider rag dolled him.

I'd love to take back Cally and Coburn, but I want no part of any anchor contracts or buyouts 3 years from now. That is when we can set the table for the 5 years to follow with all our young guns.

Coburn and Cally's contracts wouldn't be bad to take on being they're done in next season and the season after, respectively. Better be some damned good picks coming back, though.

Maybe you've heard Darren Dreger?

You and Ranger Saver are actually the perfect couple.

I was the biggest Cally fan going, but I gotta say that it would be very awkward if he came back. There has to be some bad blood from all that posturing back n forth. I just don’t see NYR being one of the teams he’s ok with. 16 team list is reported I believe, I’d be surprised if he had NYR on that list

Couldn't agree more. Although it would be nice to have Cally retire in Ranger Blue, can't see the NYR on his approved list.

Maybe two ways to look at it, he’s from Rochester so it wouldn’t stun me to see Buffalo, NYR, NYI, Devils and maybe Boston on his list.

Or he’s 35 and put just teams he thinks has a shot at a cup on his list, not a lot of contenders with cap space and room in their bottom 6 for Callahan though.

Funny when discussing guys on the move how they want to go to a contender. Nobody ever looks at guys on a contender and think do they really want to leave and go to a loser?

So, does he get the "C" back when he returns???? THAT would be awkward.
