Sure looked good in game 1 for the Rangers, so did Clowe & Moore.

Remember Steve Bernier after deadline when he got traded from San Jose to Buffalo for Campbell, he got a hat trick, now he plays on the third line for NJ.

Just saying ......

That's what they said about the Gomez for McDonough deal too.

One of the biggest steals in the last decade.

At the time of that deal I was just happy that the Rangers could get a sucker to take that terrible contract, the fact that we got a top D man for a decade or more is just icing on the cake.

Neglecting that John Moore had a very good game as well, looked solid defensively and his skating is superb... Then again against Hamrlik he looks like Lidstrom.

Thank God we will no longer see him again...barring injury.

correction Eklund,

Gaborik is 31.

People are shocked that the Rangers traded an aging player for a few promising players in their early to mid 20's and don't know how to react.

Whoa...How many games has he played and your ready to have him "BREAKING OUT"? Let him actually play a season than come see me.

I'll bet Eklund $1000 that Brassard never scores 70pts.
Why am I so confident?
Because I've watched him play and haven't relied on his draft position to predict his future pt production.

And the cap hit for the next season + is now gone & no way we were resigning him after 2014 anyway.

Voracek actually played well last season and all of this one....Brassard has 1 sweet game under his belt, ok Pierre Maguire
