I don't understand a 5min penalty at all. Refs trying to keep the ending calm? There was nothing wrong with the hit. Watch a suspension come because its burrows...

I don't know, gotta see anther replay. Burrows is (frank)ed though even if it's 50/50 or questionable he's gonna get hit with games.

Yup. Nothing wrong with that hit, despite what that idiot Dutchy says.

They work better if you have a more desirable city to attract free agent and retain your own players(no offense, and plus you guys should be better off when you move and Wang is no longer in charge). A competent GM, a team willing to spend to the cap and a decent scouting staff also helps.

Once the move happens, and wang sells...

New GM
New Coach
2 Top 4 dmen
1 Starting goaltender

Top six winger, but shouldn't be a priority, ie VANEK.

Instant contender. Our rebuild is done. Just need a GM to get us to the next step. ..

I think Ott and Car can pass us and 1 of Nash/Win might pass us. So we should finish 23/24th, giving us a 3.6-4.7% to win the lottery or picking 7/8th

top 8 is what I'd realistically be happy with. So 7/8 is cool and possible.

Hopefully Markstrom is rusty. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if a few guys shut it down early due to lingering injuries.

For this team??? It's gonna be earth changing for this to happen. For any other team, it would be done 2-3 days after free agency opens.

Hit was clean(but unnecessary). Hopefully they suspend him though, tank is strong right now!

Just watched it on Youtube and I don't see it. The rangers announcers are complaining about it being from behind yet he clearly hits him in the side/front. Looks like his shoulder was jammed in a awkward position.

Not a direct head shot or from behind. It was unnecessary but he's playing to the whistle and it wasn't even that hard(look at how little the boards moved).

No need to make that hit. It wasn't the hit that was bad. Making that hit was a dirty rat move. Time to hide our heads in shame for the rest of the season. D!ck move.

Yeah, I'd be pissed as a Ranger fan if McDonagh is injured but it's not suspension-worthy.
