Just another reminder that Late Night Live Chat #2 will take place tonight at 10pm.
Hoping everyone can may it. Should be a great time. Especially if the Rangers sign Kovalchuk today. I kid, I kid.

stop claiming that you are kidding.. I dont care who you are on this blog not a one of youcan honestly 100 percent without question say that they think this team could not benefit greatly by having kvy and gabby together on broadway. we got great kids coming up on defense that will take care of the low costs needed for the next few years for kovy to fit in this team.. if the pens can do it with staal crosby malkin and fleury rest assured the rangers can do it with gabby lundy kovy and staal...secondly in 2 years drury"s HUGE cap hit of 7 mil per will be gone (thats almost kovy's contract already) (funny how noone ever talks about how this guy makes way to friggin much money) and rozival and redden will be gone as well. that leaves kovy gabby and lundy and hopefully staal MDZ and a plethora of supporting role guys to fill the gaps..I say Sather is the man if he lands Kovy and I know alot of you all agree.. unless all you "ranger" fans prefer he land on long island and beat the shit out of us for the next 7 years when lundqvist"s knees are done...
Not so sure Rangers can fit him under the cap before Drury's contract ends. Unless they get creative and backload the contract.
Going with a very young defense (are you talking about not resigning Staal & Girardi to fit Kovy in?) the next few years will lead to a lot of mistakes (although our current vet defensemen seem to be making all of them lately) and probably not much success.
And my "I kid, I kid" comment was a joke. Which I do a lot here.
I would definetly suggest resigning Staal I could live without Girardi especially at 3 mil per.. what I would like to see happen is for sather to get creative here and do a couple of things. ! and foremost would be to buyout Drury. he makes way too much and is now at best a 3rd line center with anisimov and stepan we are ok down the middle and personnally I believe dominic moore would fill drury's hole quite nicely on the third line. that buyout alone would save the rangers a ton of space for the next couple of years and would basically cover anything stall will make over the next 4.. this year they'd gain 5 mil next year 3 mill and the 2 other years after would end up taking a 2.1 mil cap hit but drury is off the books ...the second move that would be great to see is for the rangers to demote either redden or rozival.. ( is till believe the rangers can trade rozy though perhaps to st louis for a young forward) the third thing Id love to see happen is for the rangers to get rid of Voros, trade MZA or keep him in the AHL as his cap hit is high .. trade gilroy and promote mcDonough and sign a guy like Jay McKee or bring back andes Ericson.. (i still think that Pashnin in a year will be ready and valentenko so defense is truly not a worry for me.. I realise it is alot but ultimately to me the main piece is the buyout of drury as it truly is his cap hit that is killing us offensively.. on the deffensive side we have been lucky to see the likes of a MDZ and Gilroy be able to play a role on the team and basically balance out the cost of the defense core. I truly believe wiht some smart manouevering like the hawks last year with a Hossa like contract, the rangers can get Kovy on this team and finnally score some goals.. because despite how much I love Cally and DUby these guys will never score 30 goals and get 90 points.. EVER and as for the comment about the I kid I kid no worries...happy to leave a comment ...love this team and where I am from (Sherbrooke Quebec Canada) I truly am the biggest Ranger fan around!!!!
most of paying for kovys deal would be by redden in ahl - not waiting 2 yrs for drury to retire. reddens contract is far worse than drurys who again scored 20-25 his 1st 2 yrs here. drury overpaid yes. but nowhere near the extent of redden. and redden has 4 yrs left drury only 2. although again to fit in kovy redden has to go to ahl and then a cuple of other tweaks

Nice emotion Andrew. I love it.
