Yet another former all-star who came to the Elephant's Graveyard of 50 Goal Scorers to cash his checks and underperform. I would have taken a left handed Koho and a bag of used practice pucks for him last year. If he is smart, he will take is 8-time concussed squishy head and retire.
Folk singers are always liberal pansies, but not me.....I sing for my fellow conservatives...care to hear "Shoot the Hippie out of the Redwood Tree" ?
Word is that New York is just too nuts to be a good hockey market, especially since anything players want is readily available...including drugs (FLEURY).

The Rangers never should have even thought about making that trade in the first place. I said so when they did it, too:
"Why? Because even if Lindros does play that well for the next two years, the Rangers still aren't going anywhere. If this was a playoff team as currently constituted, and adding one more big gun might bring in a Cup, things would be very different. But the Rangers simply aren't close."
This is pretty surprising in a way, since they had such an awesome regular season, but I guess expectations in San Jose are pretty high. I also just realized the stupidity of San Jose having a hockey team, but that's another story I suppose.
