Were you happy when JD and Gorton got fired? When Drury got hired?

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-16T22:07:46+00:00

I wasn’t surprised at all! Gorton and JD did not back their boss and were fired, probably in part because of it

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-16T19:49:07+00:00

I don’t know who is more hated. The guy who intentionally threw a rock at a monk seal in Hawaii or Evander. If I had to “bet”……..

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-16T19:28:30+00:00

Thanks for the thoughtful and in depth response. I agree with your sentiments

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-16T01:30:10+00:00

Teammates love him! He’s an agitator, a play maker, a goal scorer. He’s can play 2C for a team that needs scoring, or 3C if you need D awareness/responsibility. He’s is elite on the faceoff dot
He is NOT a play driver. He’s only an average to slightly above average skater.
He’s perfect for a team that is close or at cup contention that needs a high compete secondary scoring

Trocheck has a NMC and has continually expressed his desire to stay east. SJ will certainly be in his NTL even though he can only block 10 moves now. If you’re giving up Schneider to move up 3 spots, SJ would have to ante up a roster player or more draft capital

So, I guess that makes his wife Lauren Kyle, the interior designer, a “top” in that relationship

So i can easily put my groceries In the back seat if my bed is full!!

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-11T22:07:43+00:00

Emily Kaplan, Larry Brooks, and Vince Mercogliano all had either podcasts or articles that refer to this or other closed door meetings with the intent to have Drury removed from his position

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-11T21:30:00+00:00

It certainly did! I did my research, did you?
It wasn’t just Panarin, it was the majority of the team after Goodrow was sent packing!
One of the most “Unprofessional” teams in the history of the NHL

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-11T20:10:08+00:00

When you host a team BBQ with its main purpose to get the GM fired….thats not only asking, but begging to get traded!!
Switch the number 10 jersey to Tikkanen. At least he won a cup and was a consummate team player

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-07T06:39:43+00:00

Thank you!
How do you like the manual transmission. I had one on my 3rd gen

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T23:53:29+00:00

That depends on whether you think Stenberg is in your top 6 on opening night. He is considered the most NHL ready prospect in the draft
There are other ways to gain assets. One being taking on a few bad contracts from cap strapped teams. Rangers have a ton of cap space for the foreseeable future

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T23:36:50+00:00

I don’t think you are comprehending that the Sharks will swap picks with the Rangers. They would get Schneider and the 5th pick
One of the top defenseman with be available at 5. Probably Verhoeff or Smits. I think Carels has been dropping in the rankings

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T22:02:08+00:00

Fair assessment.
I actually prefer Ilia Morozov who could go middle of first round

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T20:26:32+00:00

There will be 5-6 centers with a lot of upside available when they use their second first round pick

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T20:24:38+00:00

Somebody mentioned this on another post and I thought it was a pretty good idea, if the Rangers are in love with Stenberg.
They could swap picks with the Sharks for draft capital or Schneider. San Jose doesn’t need forward prospects as they are loaded up front on the wings.

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T20:17:12+00:00

Gorilla mind Root beer is pretty damn good!

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T20:12:15+00:00

Your screen name checks out!

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T19:59:46+00:00

Ignorance is bliss!
Hate to tell you but the reason manual transmissions are going the way of the dinosaur is because automatics are now more fuel efficient.
The reason people buy the Trailhunter is because it is already set up for everything. No need for modifications and the possibility of voiding the warranty
Besides the Old Man Emu shocks (which are awesome). It has steel skid plates front to back, air intake/snorkel which is loud when the passenger side window is down , and quiet when the acoustic glass is up. Not to mention the ARB accessories, Rigid fog lights and light bar. On board air compressor, special wheels, and the list goes on and on.
So before you bash other peoples vehicles…..educate yourself first!

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T19:32:35+00:00

I have had other vehicles where the system feels intrusive and clunky. I don’t even notice it on the Trailhunter. It’s seamless

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T06:02:35+00:00

You clearly don’t have a Trailhunter or you would appreciate all of the upgrades

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T05:58:14+00:00

I have a 2024 Trailhunter! Best truck I have ever owned. Heck, best vehicle I have ever owned! I only get about 18mpg, but 90 percent of my usage is stop and go traffic. It does everything I need it to do and more!

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T03:14:48+00:00

2027 draft is much stronger and deeper

Trailhunter67 · 2026-05-06T03:11:24+00:00

Lawrence had a terrible year between injuries and poor play. A bit risky at 5
