But, when I heard about a deal sending Nash to the Rangers, and I read the story and DIDN'T see Chris Kreider's name included, I started doing virtual backflips. Not saying the Rangers won the deal, but I think Columbus could have held out for a lot more.

Get him somewhere where he isn't expected to be the franchise, he'll be what he is, an excellent hockey player. I'd entertain a wager where I say he'll record at least 75 points next season.

The_Crosby_Show;1231848 wrote:Please. First of all he never deserved to be captain and weighed him down? He's overrated plain and simple.

Definitely would've been ok with the Bruins getting rid of Krejci and tim thomas for him. But seriously, he played in bum fuck as far as the media is concerned. Wait until he has to deal with NYC media, we'll see how much that weighs on him.

I'll make a bet he doesn't put up 75 points.

Care to suggest terms, or I can come up with something?

queencitybuckeye;1232604 wrote:If you build two complete teams out of all NHL players (40 players exactly), you're saying that Nash isn't on one of the teams? Not sure what the guy did to hurt your feelings, but it made you lose any sense of objectivity. The only worse evaluation I've seen is someone seriously suggesting that Gretzky isn't in the top-10 all time.
