Booth was signed to a two-way contract and Detroit is sending him to the minors. Also re: Biega over Pedan who cares. They both suck and it's unlikely Pedan is claimed.

Heliogabalos posted:Hmm maybe Green isn't Willie 2.0 after all. I met a HNIC producer who told me Green was way smarter than most people knew, and while normally I'd be inclined to be skeptical of some tv dude's opinion he then claimed to be responsible for hiring Friedman, so maybe he's right? "Smart enough not to play the shittiest players on the team" isn't a very high bar to clear, but it's a start.

Canucks win and look entertaining in doing so? I'm so confused. Of course Gudbranson was a giant pile of poo poo every time he stepped on the ice, so it's nice to see *some* things don't change.

Kilza posted:Actually, for Coach's Challenges, it turns out they just have a machine that randomly selects either "good goal" or "no goal". That way they don't have to bother hiring people to look at replays to decide whether it's a good goal or not. It's a very ingenious cost cutting move by Gary Bettman. Bullshit, the NHL isn't this technologically advanced. They just stick with the good 'ol roll of the dice.

a false posted:the roster is fine. the coach is bad. You can't possibly believe this. Sure, ok, maybe AV needs to go. Maybe his systems don't work for the Rangers or he's lost the room or whatever and maybe a new coach could help. That's not going to solve the biggest problem, however. The biggest problem is that the roster is loving abysmal There's no depth outside of RHD, little to no high-end offensive talent and an aging goalie (with a horrendous contract) whose play has declined noticeably over the past 2 - 2 1/2 seasons. Oh and God help the Rangers if Hank ever gets hurt because the fallback is Ondrej Pavelec, he of the lifetime .907 career save percentage.
