This situation is NY is absolutely crazy, most people assumed Krieder was going to take over the “C” when Trouba was moved.

Drury has officially imploded that dressing room, might be the most toxic situation we’ve seen in years.

Just doubling and tripling down on these dumb power moves. What a spectacle.

Maybe this is the "if you don't agree to this trade we'll scratch you" part of Drury's process. Next comes waivers (does Krieder have NMC?).

It's a tough job making players think twice about signing for the Rangers but Drury sure is making a go of it.

[sureLoss]

Kreider does have a NMC and 15 team no trade list

[Paulie Walnuts]

He has had some interesting stats. 52 goals 25 assist. 36 goals 18 assists. So far this year 11 goals 1 assist

Kakko looked Happy as hell to be released from that mess.

The goaltending changes in Colorado seem to have made a massive impact. They keep scoring but they are getting saves.

Serves Drury right. Always seemed rather full of himself and unable to make tough situations better in a professional manner

I wonder wtf he is thinking? He was somewhat recently a player himself. He should know that works in a locker room. Did he see these tactics work when he was a player? Is this just an ego thing? Maybe he's bitter about his his career ended and is subconsciously taking it out on the players? His Stanley cup ring is cutting off the circulation to his brain?

Fox should be sent to the ECHL

NYR’s coach sucks too. Theoretically he sets the lineup.

After the Kakko trade, Pagnotta (I know, I know) suggested that teams were lining up to inquire about the availability of K'Andre Miller as well. He's not only struggling, some say he's been outright bad at times, and more was expected from him this season after being so awesome the previous two years.

I'm sure the price to aquire him (if he was made available) would be astronomical, as he's a 24yo, 6'5", physical two-way D-man who put up over 40 points a few years back.

So a 2nd and a B prospect?

[Bend it like Bourgeois]

I think history will judge this NYR episode as more balls than brains.

But from popcorn row I admire the lack of f around. Ruthless.

Hanley a 3rd and 2028 5th

Guess what city this Facebook account is based out of? I wasn't surprised at all. Their fanbase is known to make ridiculous trade proposals.

They can shove it up where the sun don't shine.

I'd opine it's some of an ego, but also it may be one of the harder markets to come into and shine. Drury really had no head office experience. He very likely went the Shanahan route, kissed up to someone, they liked his jib, and next thing you know he has a high ranking position. Now he has to put up results, and it's more than just talking business, it's assembling the scouting, handling the cost allocations, dealing with agents, negotiating with other teams, etc. It's pretty clear he wanted to put his stamp on the team and a few years in he has to do that. I do think dropping Truba was a good move, but it's pretty clear he's ruffling some feathers and it wouldn't surprise me if agents are leaking info. In no way I'm saying Drury is right, but pro sports is a dirty environment. It seems like a lot of things conspire against GMs - agents trying to pull quick ones, owners demanding immediate results even when team's aren't ready, players at times cashing it in. It's a really odd place to be. Sometimes guys just don't have the communication right to be able to come down to the players level and be straight with them. It's weird because these management types seem to manage up, but can't bring themselves to also manage downward. We seen it with Treliving when Johnny and Tkachuk were sulking a few years ago, and you see it elsewhere. Conroy seems to have that servant leadership quality down right.
