After voting the Rick Middleton trade for Ken Hodge as thee worst of the 1963-1994 Era for reasons I wrote earlier, I could see how some may feel that the Park, Ratelle, Zanussi trade for Espo and the late, Carol Vadnais, may have been even worse. That would only be the case, when due to the fact that in the first place, had that trade never occurred, Espo would not have been here to demand the Rangers to acquire Ken Hodge, likely leaving Middleton remaining a Ranger for good.

personally I think Middleton/Hodge is waaaay worse, because Hodge contributed absolutely nothing

Espo and Vadnais did contribute and Espo was arguably Rangers best player on a team that made the finals, with Vadnais a monster during that playoff run as well

Ridley/Miller for Carpenter was a nightmare trade

- airjan23


my least favorite personally, because I loved Mike Ridley, instantly awful trade, and then to compound it by not even giving Bobby Carpenter a chance to get settled

Wouldn't mind move Miller to center and then signing Vanek or Stafford to supplement the wing depth we lose from that move

Maybe, 1 or 2 of his classic giveaways he'll be back in AVs chateau bow wow!

They seem a little thin upfront, suddenly.

A lot of teams would kill to be as "thin" as we are. Kinda like Jimbo and Matt.

I really don't know

there isn't a lot of cap space to bring in anything significant

may just roll with what they got

That's what happens when you lose 2 forwards.

It's like last year when people wanted to trade a core forward for a defenseman because we were so deep offensively...but what they didn't understand is if you move 1 forward you go from being deep to average just like that up front.
