They are disgusting to watch. It's absolutely pathetic. I hate what management has done to this team. Besides Brendan Smith. Cruder and sadly MZA, there is nobody on the team with any semblance of willingness to stand up for each other. And none of these guys are really even fighters and MZA is 5'6 and maybe 180lbs

Rick Nash, a Canadian, at 6`4 235... Has got to be the biggest waste of space & waste of a sweater that I`ve ever seen. No passion, no honor, Nada.... A big lump of shit that apologizes for "accidently" running into somebody!
Even when not playing well, which is 98% of the time, you would think he would make up for it in other areas of physicality.
Please disappear, you over sized apologetic pussy!

It was a disgrace how much shit Tanner Glass got from know nothing Ranger fans during his time in NYC.

Majority of Rags fans don`t appreciate, deserve or even understand what a guy like McLoed gives or does for a team... even in this yeast infected league.
Preds fans/ journalists don`t seem to get it either.... after all, they are in Tennessee.
Here:
I get the appeal for McLeod. He’s a big bruiser who starts a fight or lays a booming hit every time he steps out on the ice. That is the best part of a game for many fans.
However, in today’s NHL, there is just no need for a player like McLeod. McLeod is currently in his 12th NHL season, which to me is remarkable. His career high in points in a season is 20, which came in his sophomore year with the Colorado Avalanche. He’s only gone over 10 points seven times, yet eclipsed 120+ PIM nine times.
With 123 career points, and 1,519 career penalty minutes, teams are getting almost 13 minutes of McLeod in the box before he records a point. The fact that teams are willing to make that trade simply baffles me. With so many young and talented prospects in the AHL, that can actually contribute points, it blows my mind that Colorado and Nashville are willing to give up a roster spot for a goon.

wow, didn't even know the Preds had ditched McLeod. Fuuuuuuck me.
Preds in fact do have a slot for THAT guy. They're loaded with talent and speed. 3 lines deep of great talent and 3 D pairs full of talent. All small.
Oh well. They'll probably still keep winning, but then they'll be whining when somebody knocks out Forsberg, Josi, Fiala.

Holy fuck - Rangers fans on Twitter are beside themselves over the NYR picking up an "enforcer." I've had to stop myself from trolling these idiots, but my days of internet arguing are over.
It's a disgrace how the average fans look at a physical player today.

That was embarrassing yesterday. Forsberg slowly backs into Vesey who plants his face directly into the guy's shoulder (head down, has no idea what's happening). Vesey gets all fucked up, so there has to be a fight.
Johanssen (of all people) throws some midget around like it's dwarf tossing in a bar.
Apparently McCleod said some angry things to a few Preds. In reality he probably didn't feel like fighting a bunch of friends.

We used to joke about Bettman turning hockey into olympics / ice capades....... and here it is, 100% realised.

Dude, did you watch that thing too? the Rangers were fucking OWNED physically, totally intimidated to the point where their softness lead to the injury of two more important players.
I don't blame McLeod - he barely got three shifts the final two periods or so. But christ, what an embarrassment. But yeah - enforcers have more of a negative impact than a positive one on a team (and I'm quoting some Twitter idiot here).
Brady Skjei is the one who had to step up and make a statement?!? Holy fuck. Good luck with that.

On the plus side, Ron Duguay at least had the stones two twice say what we were all thinking - that the Preds saw the Rangers as easy meat physically and suddenly got all brave. And that there was a reason why McLeod was picked up - that the Rangers need to put on their big boy pants and get tougher.
At least someone in the media besides us neanderthals see this team for what it really is.

Lol, Forsberg got 3 games. He simply backed into Vesey, who was skating with his head totally down.
I guess now it's a big no-no to hit somebody who isn't staring directly at you. Or slowly back into them.
This league is just fucked. Every other major league is tougher than hockey now.

trust me boys it's no different here in philly. we have a few more fights than you guys but they haven't been much.
his how disfunctional this team is. we recall ty goldbourne and hextall comes out and actually talks the kid up-he'll hit, fight, and he's a good penalty killer (last time i looked he flyers had the worst PK in the league).
so what does our idiot coach do? give him 5 minutes a game, tell him not to fight, and not use him at all on our PK. so while our fight totals might be slightly higher, trust me if it makes you feel any better it feels just as bad down here.

Looks like they picked up Cody Mcleod. Those dorks on Blueshirt Banter are liking pms'ing; idiots bestfootballbettingsites.org had an obsession with Tanner Glass and believed him playing was why they didn't win the Stanley Cup.

Oh yeah - I had to stop reading that drivel and following Rangers blogs on Twitter. They thought Tanner Glass was a worthless slug just south of Satan, and hate the McLeod pick up.
