Since Gorton&Davidson were gone this team hasnt and will not be the same ever!!! It is a privilige to play in NY but not for Dolan &Drury …. hes destroyed this team a trade at a time …. good luck in seeing free agents in NY Ranger fans!!!
Keep Igor, Laf, Cuylle, Trochek and other you g guys. Move everyone else out. I’m a fan of the team, don’t care who plays for them
Kreiders the softest player in the league!!! Biggest signing by Drury … Frederic!!! Watch NY
I can wipe my ass with this team. Nothing but disgust. This is coming from a big season ticket holder fan. F this team
What happened to business is business,
😮
It’s not like I didn’t see that the players weren’t playing for management. This just if true solidifies it. I said this before too your professionals act like it. What about us fans I guess they didn’t give a dam about us too!!! sad I have been a Ranger fan for 50 yrs I never seen this
I read the article. At no point does it explicitly say they made a plan to quit on management!!! You’re making stuff up.
I really hope that any fans that go to MSG on open night next season boo the crap out of them
Learn from the old timers, this group is ridiculous
I could be wrong, but it sounds like unhappiness all around according to what you're saying. If that's the case, it's best to leave. Not only are they hurting the team , but they're hurting themselves. They're hurting their career. Then if no team wants them, where are they going to go?
Disgusted enough to walk away from their contracts? Crickets….
What's amazing to me is that this GM was a Rangers player, a Rangers Captain.
How could he not know that his antics with Goodrow, Trouba and the "leaked memos" would destroy team morale?
Drury won the Calder – so how could he not know about developing young players and giving them a chance with decent minutes?
"Where did Darius go?" Maybe he got traded to Anaheim?
Definitely get rid of the quitters – and the GM, too.
When theres a cancer on a team you remove it Mika needs to go
Drury is a cancer to the rangers organization
I'M sick, and tired of listening to this bullshit of players complaining, making millions playing a game. They are bunch of pussies. The problem players were Kreider, Mika, and Panerin. They turned the young players against the management team. For God's sake, you heard trade about McDavid, and you don't heard him crying.
Great job on this video
This is so sad. Dolan has done nothing for the Rangers and Knicks. Nothing but disappointment.. now ego maniac Drury is bringing back Quinn who is a horrific coach. Barley 500 winner, whom he fired. This alone tells you the Drury is an idiot. Dolan is just as bad after all these years. Let Knobloch go to the Oilers. Enough said here. Drury was at best a compliment player. What makes you think he can manage the organization. The team quit on him. That says it all. Get rid of Drury, Dolan please sell, hire a fan to replace Drury. They would do a better job. Go Devils
Panarin 37 goals ( tied 13th) 89 points ( tied 13th ). “ put the puck in the net “ ? get real Bret you sound like a fool
Blah blah blah, so who leaked this from panarins house? Its all bs, dont need a reason why, a few just quit last season. You get paid alot of money to play “hockey”. Kids dont complain this much and they dont get paid.
Well the breadman proved himself as the only forward WORTH his sallary..37 goals with no centers .
2 things: 1) If the core and other players got together to discuss how to bury the team, you're never going to win anything with that mindset. Id imagine several of those players are still here, and shouldnt be. 2) Where was the leadership of some of the guys who heard that talk in Panarin's house and told them to shove it where the sun don't shine. If nobody did, and they should have, I question their leadership and attachment to winning in NY too. Nobody should have stood aside and listened to that.
We will never know. No body ever will admit to this. Sure they could have partied at panarin house what happen that night is all speculation
Obv u guys have never been part of a team. Team chem is one of the most important aspects of a winning team. Getting ur " brothers" treated the way Drury did with trouba and Barclay pissed everyone off. And if yall dnt watch the 2nd half of the season, panarin was our best player by far, and as for playoffs, unfortunately skilled players arnt enough to win a cup, how many goals did the best player in the league have in the cup final? U need a TEAM to win, ruining lockerroom chem only weakens a team.
CK was hurt all year buddy, he ain't a quitter. Watch yo mouth
That'll be the end of my support for the Rangers. See ya.
Whether the players like Drury or not… Drury is an AWFUL GM!! Trades away talent for mediocrity in return. He also gives out bad long term contracts. Drury must have the same pictures that Sather had of Dolan naked with Farm Animals to stay GM
Agree with both of your comments. I prefer to keep Zack Jones. Jones has some offensive ability and can play the PP. Get rid of Soucy and K'Andre Miller along with Panarin.
They got Gallant fired, quit in Laviolette , get rid of the malcontents. They haven't won anything and think they run the team.
Florida is better than every team. That fkn memo destroyed this team, leave Kreider alone, Drury named him on the memo like the creep he is.
Hope he kicks ass in Anaheim.
LGR!
Everyone already knew this
Dolan sucks as an owner.
Drury is a horrible GM and should be Fired.
As for bashing the players yeah it’s wrong if they did this but management should abide by the contracts they signed these players to..
Drury botched the Trouba trade, back door Goodrow , and making a statement that certain players are available. Is ridiculous..
I don’t blame the players for being mad..
This is a major reason that the players association needs to rework the contract so if a player has a NTC or limited contract they should be waiver exempt.
I knew it, I had a feeling this is what happened. Maybe time to trade Panarin?
drury was 100% spot on with what he did with trouba! overpaid underperformer!
Chris Drury has moved alot of talent starting with Goodrow, & gotton a questionable return. NYR fans are sick of Drury.
How could you not surmise they started tanking to try to get Drury fired after the memo came out!? When your star players Bread, Mika are finesse players, you'll never get ckose to sniffing the Cup. Embarrassing!
I agree the team underperformed I agree that Drury leaves much to be desired. I agree Dolan is a silver spoon shit owner. And organizational excellence begins at the top. But until he decides to sell we are stuck with a team not obsessed with winning a Cup, which is the difference between the NYR and every serious contender.
But you guys are funny. Articles that don’t quote people, but quote anonymous, are always suspect. And you two sound like hysterical high school girls who overreact and dramatize based on nothing but rumor and innuendo. We learned a lot about Kreider injury state. Not a good way to go thru the season. Sorry, Panarin didn’t mail it in.
I keep hoping one day you will bring something interesting but all you do is read what other people say and act dramatic and hysterical. One last question. Either of you ever lace em up? You seem like a couple team manager cheer boy types. Too funny
On a non-Rangers topic, you look better Darius. Think everyone including the team needs to put this meeting BS in the past. Time to move on. Think Drury, if he can, should put Mika on waivers….at least they increase the salary cap even though they will get nothing back…somebody will grab him.
well this explains alot – the Drury haters take another L
Kreider didn't give up – he was playing hurt for most of the season. Maybe both of these guys should go out there with a bad back and a busted wrist and see how THEY fare. Dump Mika, dump Panarin and his possible harassment issue, but Kreider deserved to retire here, and yes, with numbers second only to Gilbert and Ratelle, he DOES deserve in the rafters someday – and brought back when he reaches free agency!
And Florida wins because they get away with everything! Remember when Mikkola was here – every time he threw a hit he got called for a penalty. Didn't happen in Florida! Montreal, of all teams, OWNED them in the regular season, so yes, they CAN be beat. If Edmonton actually had a decent goalie, the Finals would have gone very differently.
Dam! Maybe that Peterka offer sheet isn’t such a forgone conclusion😂😂
Too many people believe too much of what they see on the internet.
This team will not get any better until at the very least, Drury is gone. Free agents won’t want to sign here and you can get rid of everyone who quit last year. Who are you going to replace them with since 0 free agents will sign? This team is the epitome of trash
These players are softer than toilet paper. There’s people struggling to get by in life, meanwhile these guys get millions to play a game they dreamed of. This is ridiculous
Jezus trucking cripes how many times do I have to say it;!?! James Dolan is the worst owner in both the NBA and the NHL. He's a disingenuous self absorbed prick, he's only interested in MSG as a monopoly piece.
One Cup in 85 years….. It's NOT all on the players…… The Rangers need a new owner.. They couldn't win a cup when there wasn't a salary cap..
