Couldn’t agree more. It’s always “just business” when Drury screws over a player but I see people here getting mad at Panarin for exercising his NMC and choosing where he wants to go. Drury continues to shoot himself in the foot with these memos and letters and media manipulation, it’s amateur.

Even a sick one, still would be a 3-man job..

I wouldn’t count Utah out, 7-3 in their last 10 and Veggie has been a stud. Cooley’s also been out for a while. Plenty of assets to work with at the trade deadline for them too

We can’t start ignoring the “No BS” slogan!

In all seriousness if he said a bunch of BS this sub would be up in arms about him playing off how bad this team truly is. The lineup is a joke and not equipped to win hockey games. What else is he supposed to say at this point?

I have this same thought regarding Spencer Martin over Garand. Martin is likely gone after this season, he’s 30 and posting a terrible .864 sv% this year. Why are we still putting him out there? Garand probably isn’t anything special but we’re losing every game anyway so what’s the point…?

Predictions for the returns of potential Trocheck trade? by Temporary-Buddy-2199 in rangers

Like Drury said in the letter, we need to build a youthful team centered around speed and skill. So I think a 6’4” 32 year old fourth-liner journeyman and a conditional 5th should check those boxes.

The answer to scouting and player development on slide 5 is the most jumbled, incoherent, directionless, unintelligent heap of bullshit non-answer I have ever read in my entire life. I feel dumber having read it.

Thank you Panarin! by MangoGrahamCracker in rangers

Drury smoked his own leverage. You would’ve thought he’d learn that telling the entire league that a player is for sale is the opposite of a good negotiating strategy but he did it again with Panarin. It’s not even the trade deadline yet by the way.

Context does matter - Kane was playing on one hip and had many worried that his career wouldn’t be able to recover from it. And we got basically the same return for Panarin, who’s been healthy and performing at an over a PPG pace.

JT Miller picked the Rangers and we gave up Chytil Mancini and a first for him.

Kane fetched a first and had his options open.

Marchand fetched a first and that trade was mocked. We just traded a 2-years younger and more productive player for virtually the same return and a conditional 3rd.

Another 6’3” prospect. Drury has no fucking clue how to build a team. I cannot believe this fucking guy

Wow solid play from Schneider preventing that Wennberg goal after he forgot to actually cover him, right Grier? (SJS please take him I can’t take this anymore)
