Ahab", Shanny is strangely NOT being talked about..poor guy. I do think he appear somewhere within the Rangers this season..hhhmmm...<BR/><BR/>faux...Drury was my last year prediction for Cap-a-Tain this season -- Naslund is a terrific addition, but certainly not a Jagr replacement. Though, without Jagr, he will listen to the coaches. Some might see this as a detriment (Pundit), but maybe we haven't seen Renney actually coaching for three seasons due to the Jagr-monarchy...so many 'if's' & 'maybes'. Scary stuff.<BR/><BR/>pundit...ah yes...my conscience at work. You KNOW I feel this...until we're in November I can't actually say it.<BR/><BR/>anonymous...Amen brother! Fashion on the Rangers will take a downward spiral my anonymous friend. We may be a better team, the same team, a horrible team, but you point out the most obvious. The personality of the Rangers has been ripped out of our hearts!!! I am a fan of Shanny...as I said, he might show up.The Dark Rangerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12394949785830752700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7172615307927549169.post-81322953379659982002008-07-09T21:36:00.000-04:002008-07-09T21:36:00.000-04:00What about Shanny? He's a gentleman, a leader, an ambassador for the NHL and and all around great guy. And we've heard NOTHING. One might hope that Slather has behaved in a manner becoming of Brendan, but so far he's been true to the love em and leave em scenario. One more year for Shanny!! We need him back for morale! Drury will make an amazing Captain as well, hes a solid. Gomer needs a few more years... They're all gonna miss Aves, gotta keep some of the team spirit together and off ice- that was Shanny, Sean and Holly's doing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7172615307927549169.post-54991528734207048162008-07-09T19:24:00.000-04:002008-07-09T19:24:00.000-04:00Hey Dark Ranger. Will you love these guys in April as you do in July? Wasn't there a song by that name?The Ranger Punditnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7172615307927549169.post-91009644094383438462008-07-08T10:25:00.000-04:002008-07-08T10:25:00.000-04:001) Marcus seems like a likeable guy and if he was captain for 8 years he must possess some leadership qualities. However, his offensive contributions have steadily been diminishing.<BR/>2) Peaking at 104 in 03, then going down to 84, 79, 60, 55 the past few years since. If the rangers are expecting a return to his 80-100 point days they may be disapointed.<BR/>3) Zherdev is going to be the wild card. He might become the star they expected in Columbus, or he could be a complete bust under the heavy glare of Broadway. As for the new captain, Drury seems to be the logical option thereFAUX RUMORShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00403913043629362701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7172615307927549169.post-47712607127748578102008-07-04T04:25:00.000-04:002008-07-04T04:25:00.000-04:00"Mr. Perimeter" hehe I always liked "Capt. Emo" myself... <BR/><BR/>Word is also that Shanny is still a possibility to be back and there is an offer on the table to Paul Mara.<BR/><BR/>- JAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
