Rangers sign another forward, Brandon Pirri to a 1 year deal. He averaged 80 points in 166 games.
Gortons planning something and it rhymes with cash.
I like this kid Pirri. More Depth on forward. Could mean Dominic Moore is in trouble?
I know there are many Ranger Fans, that want to see Nash traded. I am not one of them. There is no way I want to see the Rangers get rid of Nash.
Now, just this once I will say this about Nash, if the Rangers can get something for Nash which will really make the team better, then go for it, but IMO, I don't think they could,. 40 goal scorers are not easy to come by in the NHL today. I admit, we all want more from him on offense, but I still say, AV needs to use him for what they went out and got him for. Remember his first season, when we were all calling him a beast. Well that's because he was used on the ice as the go to guy. And if that's what AV wants to see, then play him that way. He should be made aware of this by treating him and playing him like the go to guy, and the game breaker. And that's by making him you number 1 line player 5 0n 5 and on the power play. The last two season, he has used him more as a top defensive forward.
Av needs to stick with him, and let him know he is the guy. Last season, guys like OV, the punk Crosby, and Tavarase had terrible starts, but they sill were the go to guys. And then they turned it on. I just don't like the way AV has used Nash. How many times last season, have you seen Nash, not even get any time on the Power Play, and when he did, it was on the second unit, and little ice time.
Lot of Ranger fans are trying to make him out to be a big mistake, well he had more points last season in the short lived playoffs then most Rangers. He played hard and gave no excuses, and never once said, why me. AV has done nothing but move him from one line to another. He also takes him out of his game by using him on his off wing. The guy is a right wing who shots righty, leave him there. Get him a good center to set up plays for him and put his size in the front of the net on the number one power play, he is being wasted on the bench during power plays. He has not had much time in the playoffs with the CBJ, and he was there go to guy during the season and was their leading scorer. Why, because he knew he was the go to guy, and the guy they depended on to get the big goals.
I blame a lot of the lack of big time goals from Nash on AV. And I am not the only one.
This is a quote from another big time Ranger Fan.
"The past few years Nash was moved to left wing due to the presence of aforementioned top-6 right wing teammates St. Louis and Zuccarello, and I believe it effected his game. I think it would help Nash if he were moved back to right wing where he is most comfortable and familiar, and leave him there."
Also I read this, Your talk about Nash has merit. A friend of mine was watching an NHL tonight segment and Scotty Gomez was on the show. He mentioned that the coaching staff wasn't using Nash effectively.
Getting rid of Nash would be a big mistake for the Rangers
