Therefore, not so Silly, and illogical.
Stamkos won't be moved, and it would take McD ++++++

Give me picks. Rangers won 51 games getting dick from Dubinsky.

Oilers (outside of their immovable youngsters) have nothing interesting as far as prospects go and what the rangers are looking for.

Atleast we have a Rag fan willing to share the truth. Dubinsky was god awful this year and has somehow found a way to be even worse in the playoffs.

Midget > Dubinsky

He's been pretty bad if you look at his stats. He has been great on the for and backcheck though. Not enough for a guy that makes that amount of money, sure. But lets not make him look like Scott Gomez.

Hard to take a Isles fan serious when he compares players to midgets. How's your Pavel Bure aka Nino been this year?

Just stop the Rangers hating please...

How in hell does Nino compare to Pavel Bure? And he's 19. Not sure if you knew that but the NHL is no place for 19 year old kids.

And I'm not hating the Rags. Just saying Dubinsky sucks

Dubinsky doesn't suck. He wasn't worth his cap hit this past season, simply due to his lack of production, but Brandon's a damn good player who contributes in all situations. He's a 20G scorer; 50P player. An off season doesn't mean he "sucks". That's why most Rangers fans want him on this team next year, unless we can upgrade his position. He's one of the most likable players on our roster for a good reason.

You have to admit that it's troubling he had his worst season as a Ranger right after signing his first big contract.

Guys have bad seasons all the time. It happens.

I would expect that regardless of where Dubinsky plays next year he is back to his 45+ point production while providing solid defensive hockey and excellent penalty killing skills.

He's a good 2nd liner winger, a very good 3rd line winger. If we can't use him to upgrade the top line LW position, I have no issues having him line up as out 3rd line LW with Hagelin and Kreider manning the 1st and 2nd lines.

Dubinsky is being crapped on due to one bad season and the reason for that is the contract he just signed.

He will get back to being his normal effective self next season regardless of the team he plays for.

Don't mind giving you the last word, as long as you are not misrepresenting things:
"Stamkos won't be moved...",
I never said he would. I prominently said IF in caps.
Why do you insist on putting your words in my mouth?

"and it would take McD ++++++"
I never said it would only take McD.
And there is plenty of room to debate how many +s there would be, depending on what those +s were.
Why do you insist on putting your words in my mouth?
