    Yeah, I mean..you cant argue with that. Dead on. Klein has made Moore a bit more even. Its so much less chaotic back there. The team is starting to make sense..and thats with getting little scoring for Step, Cally, Hags...I mean the list of guys that should be 20 to 30 guys and are doing nothing is staggering...and thats during quite a run!


    They are the kind of guys that all of a sudden put up 8 goals in a couple playoff series wins. That talent is there.

    Not to beat a dead horse but you guys know that kind of guy I want...and I think if HANK is HANK...who knows.

    If the Rangers allow Callahan to leave, it would be the grossest handling of talent since their trade of Brian Leetch.

    No argument from me there. If we're trading Callahan, I want hungry young guys back. Not someone who plays 1/10 of the season.

    first of all, Leetch was done so who cares. Its not like they mishandled his talent when he was winning us a Stanley cup.

    And youre nuts if you think Cally is worth more than we offered him. Even MR is on board with this and he has 5 Cally fatheads in his living room

    Its not the NHL's fault. Its stupid that the coach of the Olympic Team is allowed to be part of the player selection for the tournament. He is obviously going to pick his own players.

    Wouldn't having a bunch of players who already have chemistry together be a good thing?

    Sorry but the Pens love runs deep, letting them stack there teams with Lemieux and Jagr and Coffey, etc.., now Crosby, Letang, Hossa, Malkin...the league's poster childs...Orpik is a nothing now, old and alow

    GD Orpik is a shell of himself was the point, made a career of smashing people he knew wouldn't retaliate, see what Thornton did, try to engage him and he turtled, old and slow

    Only two players from the Penguins, right? I think its just Orpik and Martin. They won't be a defensive pair since they are both lefty shots.

    I don't see the chemistry aspect that you are talking about. Bylsma picked them because he wanted his own players on the team. From the outside, the consensus seems to be that at the very least Orpik and probably Martin should not have been on the team.

    I agree. I was referring to the US Hockey team for the Olympics though.

    Weekes is saying that Cally is asking for 7 years, 50 MM...not a dime less. 50 MM??????????????? are you fucking kidding me???

    MR, is that what you meant by Cally wants to stay here and will give NYR a break? Is this Lunacy or what?

    Hackett, if the Rangers don't give Cally 50 MM, is that a mismanagement of talent? hahahaha
