I so liked what the Rangers did the Spring before the lockout.Getting rid of all their high paid players (Holik, Nedved, Leetch, etc) I guess "rebuild" is not really in their vocabulary. Buying sure is. so hopiong they bomb out this deal like they did with free agency spending in past years

Enough with the trolling. Look, just because you despise the Rangers doesn't mean its bad value. If we have enough talent then why didn't we win the cup?
We gave up 2 roster players, our best defensive prospect and a 1st rounder. Dubinsky will be a 2nd line player on CLB and Anisimov on the 3rd. We lost depth, gained top 3 talent. CLB lost top 3 talent but gained top 6 players and depth.
Its only unfair value because your an Islanders fan and the Rangers will continue to roll over your Isles.
Its only redundant because you hate the Rangers. Gaborik is getting older and will be out for a significant portion of the year. In one thread you claim that the Rangers don't have much of value for Nash, in the next thread he is a redundant piece (being a star talent and all). Which is it?
Also, you posted in another thread that you could add 10 late first round picks and you still think its a bad deal. Since your a "preds fan", why aren't you over in the Weber offer sheet thread hammering the Flyers for "buying" another player? They are after all getting the best defenseman in the game for a few late first rounders. Seems a little hypocritical, no?
