I feel like the majority of people saw that was going to blow up in Montreal's face on day 1.
I felt that way, but with no evidence, tbh.

Drouin was a case of Montreal wanting a French star

I don't absolutely love Sergachev though, I think he's a tad overrated myself, but obviously Tampa won that trade heavily

why aren't you sharing your insider info
- jimbro83

Then it wouldn’t be insider. It’s not a guarantee, but it’s not out of the question. The Georgie/ADA incident was spot on what I told u guys, even sent ur brother a PM with a little more detail from what I remember.

Christ Dude, there is no way he is playing for the Rangers again. Where is he going to play? Who are we taking out for him? He is a gifted scorer, but the dude cannot play in his own end, he is not going to get PP1 time so what will he provide at this point? Is it a $3M upgrade from any of our kids? Use some common sense.

On another note, how frickin money is Point?

Brooks was the one who broke the Gallant hire. We all hate him but he is the most in tune beat writer the Rangers have when it comes to breaking news.

I think the most important thing he brings to the table is fighting with fans on Twitter and creating burner Twitter accounts (and possibly hockeybuzz) to, again, fight with fans. Really he’s just incredibly likable and is obviously a victim in this situation. Only 4 chances to behave like an adult for the privilege of playing professional hockey???? When did everyone get so soft

he was traded to Boston in the purge for Rob O'Gara and a 3rd rounder that they used on Joey Keane, who they traded to Carolina for Gauthier

Holden was one of those defensemen treated like crap by this fanbase but plays solid once he leaves

if i signed upwards of a $5m per year deal, doing anything not jsut hockey) i think the last thing i'd do would be to argue w/ burner account likes @(frank)trump123456 on twitter

edit: and his burner account thing was crazy. if youre going to have a burner, why tie it to your profession?

I remember once with his actual account he was trying to arrange a meet up with a fan to fight him over politics

I'll say one thing kind of defending Tony, if there was hockey last fall he wouldn't have had time to lose his mind on twitter over the election and Covid and none of this would have happened

"i defend this murderer because had he not had the free time to kill somone he wouldnt have"

Edit: this didnt "happen" because he was being a dbag on twitter. this happened because he was given an ultimatum to be on his best behavior (after getting a penalty for verbal abuse of an official), like a child, and then immediately got into a fight with a teammate after a loss

yup - but i like a bit of bumhole/crazy on my hockey team. honestly prob went nuts b/c he was being paired w/ jack johnson lol

in reality - any of his offensive production from 19-20 pre shutdown was null and void by the emergence of fox. if fox had a sophomore slump who knows how the situation would have unfolded. fox is better is every facet of the game, except the physical side. fox is 100x the player - buy ada out get the $4m or w/e it is back and build this team out.

- JRR1285


yes we can. it's not a false equivalency though. it's an emphasis on how that logic doesn't make sense... obviously being an bumhole on twitter is not equivalent to murdering. but to say he is excused because he had the free time to be an bumhole on twitter (he probably still would've been one) is silly. an bumhole is gonna bumhole and a murderer is gonna murder
