Columbus Not Asking for Kreider, McDonagh or Stepan

Written by Kevin DeLury on .

...officially completely confused. If they're not asking for any of those three, who the hell are they asking for and why hasn't Sather, who apparently is in love with Nash, gotten this trade done?

Hi Kevin, I like so many others am thrilled that you are back at it again. I think this article explains the Rangers Rick Nash situation very well. http://m.nydailynews.com/1.1107540

Still no scorer how many non scores are we going to sign...using all our cap space on junk.

...Callahan?

 

You know he very well might be looking at some of the top players.

 @NHNYR88 no cally was included in the untouchables list and if they started asking for our captain Nash would already be with the wings or san jose.

Looks like Feds isn't coming back. Is Pyatt friends with Doan? Long shot right? He is a big body though!

Because it's Sather/Dolan running the ship.

Why do we need this guy? Feds out? Or are we now going with a strategy of playing 3 checking lines that can't score to confuse the competition? in which case, great move glenn..

 @ivanricov former 1st round pick, big body and hockey family playoff experience if torts can nudge him along he could turn out to be a steal at 1.55

 @ivanricov "Pyatt was engaged to Carly Marie Bragnalo; the couple planned to wed in the summer of 2009. However, on April 2, 2009, his fiancee was killed in a car accident while vacationing in Jamaica.[6]" via Wiki

 @ivanricov 2 years...annual average salary of $1.55 for Pyatt with NYR.

I've never read any direct Scott Howson quotes. Somebody produce some, please.

You know, sometimes too much information can be worse than too little.  How do you sift through all of the bullshit?  Twitter's a pain in the ass.

 

With that said, if McD goes anywhere I swear by King Clancy I'm resigning my commission.

@grosen2477 Just call me Brett Favre.

maybe Staal?   

 

otherwise more plausible (if he's telling the truth), is that we're looking at MDZ, Hagelin, Miller, Dubinsky and a pick.

@TheNYRBlog maybe Slats is waiting on Parise?

Let Howsom crash and burn then maybe get Nash from the remaining ashes. What Leo said.

 These aren't the players you're looking for...

@AnnoyingJoe He shows howson the old timers tape of Lindros scoring and convinces him that the flyers and rangers thought it would be funny to play the game in eachothers jerseys.

From Darren Dreger's Twitter:

Aaron Portzline ‏ "Told there are lots of ways #NYR could get this done w/o Kreider, Stepan or McDonagh. As noted, McDonagh does not make sense as centerpiece."

Darren Dreger ‏ "CBJ should let the NYR know that. Multiple scenarios have been pitched by NY and turned away."

@TheNYRBlog barely two weeks into the summer and you are back at the blog already! Love it! :)

I think the Rangers should just move on from trying to acquire Nash at this point. Howson is trying to ransack the Rangers and try to leave them in a big mess. If Nash really wants to come to NY then he has the power to make it happen. Howson is playing with fire the longer it goes....

Maybe they want Miller, McIlrath, Skej, Thomas and the whole prospect field. Howson is retarded.

@TheNYRBlog something doesn't add up here otherwise the deal would have been done. Maybe Ryan has something with it or Parise not signing

@TheNYRBlog he must be asking for hags, miller and thomas then. If we have to give up any of them I want folgino too

@BlueshirtMac19 @TheNYRBlog my guess is he just started lowering his demands and is just claiming he never demanded those 3

Nothing is 'leaked' accidentally, certainly not at this point in the game... wonder what this particular angle is about!

Maybe Cally... Captain for Captain... Howson can suck a bleep if he wants that to happen!

@TheNYRBlog Perhaps Slats is working on other deals or trying to push down the value of Nash.
