Newz Forum: HOCKEY: Rangers don�t need another goal scorer

Unless Jagr can play goalie or defense he will not help the mess that GM Glen Sather has made in NY. The Rangers have so many forwards as it is with Eric Lindros, Alexei Kobalev, Petr Nedved and many more over paid players.

Lately is seems as though Sather�s new motto is we buy everyone else�s junk at a premium prices. What the rangers need to do is go out and get some top defensive players to help there goalie in Duhamn and get a good backup they could have gotten CuJo but now he is off the market.

Sather needs to go so that the Rangers will be able to stop the bleeding before it gets worse. And last night was major bleeding with there lose to the Sens 9-1

Any ideas how they could repaire this team?

well they could trade some of the big name goal scores for lets say some big name defensive players.

Oh wait, they might need one now. Can Lindros recover yet again from another concussion?

well first how long will he be out for?

Its his 8th concussion. He finished the period that he got it in. Not sure if it was from the hit or the ensuing fight.

He is going to be reevaluated Thursday. Hey, thats today.

hope for the rangers sake that he will be able to play again. Lindros is a big part of there team, his physical presence and scoring abillity.

well he received tests yesterday, how did those go?

Nothing being released yet on Lindros. Many people are suggesting to him that it is time to retire so he can remember old age. Richter told him that if he wants to come back that he has to take things slow and easy. And that a head injury should not be taken lightly. Your life is in danger here, not just your ability to walk without a limp.

yea thats true, but he has come back from concussions so many times, that i think he will come back.

Each concussion makes the next one that much easier to get.

I think its time for Eric to call it quits. He is a great player, with a slight attitude. I really don't want to see a player die on the ice. And I have a bad feeling that if Lindros gets a good whack, say from Stevens, then he won't be getting back up.

Good point if stevens gets a hold of him it could be lights out. At first i would never have thought Eric would be able to get concussions like that, h e is a very big guy and even harder guy to hit at times. People must get a really good shot on him.

COuld they trade lindros?

i dunno if a team would want him, with all the concussions he is getting, he would be a very big risk.

how is lindros doing?

HOw are the rangers doing?
