So now that they can't say all of Philly hates Briere, its San Jose and New York. Sorry, while there may be some, like yourself, in New York, most fans love that they have Drury and look forward to the reformation of the team in the Druryand Gomez look.

 

In San Jose, those that even care realize that while Campbell certainly didn't help, they have a lot more problem starting with that playoff stiff Joe Tornton.

 

 

Those that I have s/w feel although Drury is a great player he is overpaid and thus makes it difficult to better equip the team.

I can't imagine any Ranger fan who worries about being able to better equip their team. First off, they will sign anybody they want and worry about how to afford them later, and even if you believe he is overpaid, by how much? A $1.5 million cap hit( the difference between over paid and what he gets)? That's really going to handicap them?

Not to mention that true Ranger fans know exactly what the plan is and also know that with all the veterans, this team is loaded with good young talent and they will be even better next year.

 

No, any real Ranger fan may question whether he is great or not, but they don't worry much about money.

10. Teppo Numinnen had a rare contagious disease that strikes his teammates when he's out of the lineup.

 

9. Mad Max made the Blue Jackets a playoff team, and we didn't give him a chance to shine here.

 

8. Ryan Miller couldn't adjust to the new rules governing goalie equipment.

 

7. Harry Neale brought back luck with him from the Maple Leafs, and we just can't shake it!

 

6. Lindy Ruff lost his ability to motivate professional hockey players who make millions of dollars a year.

 

5. Bringing in a worse backup goalie that Thibault for Ryan Miller really hurt out GAA and wins.

 

4. By playing for another team, Danny Briere actually caused OUR TEAM +/- to go down!

 

3. We ran out of expendable players to get rid of at the trade deadline.

 

2. Jose Theodore "accidentally" shipped "hair cream" to HSBC Arena.

 

AND the #1 excuse...

 

1. Gary Bettman made a secret deal with rest of the league owners to submarine the Sabres, because he thought we were an NBA team.

 

 

How is something Larry Quinn related not on the list?
