Don't like either of those ideas in the title. Nor the trade. Nor the UFA targets. I feel like you're capable of better. I hope you're capable of better.
Deangelo on the 3rd pair? Smith in the top 4? Staal in the lineup? Lemieux playing above Gauthier? Giving a guy who struggled to perform above replacement level for 10 mins a game on a stacked Toronto team a 3C role?
You got to be better than this.
Tell me who you prefer for a one year to plug holes. And thats probably what those guys are going to fetch on the trade market.
And why not bridge a guy who we've only seen one truly productive year out of?
and if its a squeezed season why not carry more than 2 goalies. It worked at the end of this season, and I know for a fact you're shooting down any reasonable Georgiev trade...
Not to mention, Staal in the lineup, Smith in the top 4, Lemieux playing above Gauthier, and Tony on the third pair, ALL are things we are accustomed to seeing as Ranger fans. I hope you aren't surprised when most of these remain the same next season. Have you been paying attention during the season, did you watch the games where all of those things were reality?
I forget who said it, but you continue to be the most narrow minded fan on this site.
