Good, gooooood. More aboard the "Keep Yandle" train!Larry Brooks said:There is no rule of thumb to apply to recovery time from brain injuries. The Rangers have not released any information regarding the severity of McDonaghs symptoms, but they were bad enough that he did not make it to the rink at all Monday.
Is this going to be a long-term or short-term absence? It is folly to hazard a guess. But the injury clouds Gortons mandate. If McDonaghs symptoms persist, the Rangers obviously cannot even think about dealing Yandle, who led the team in ice time both against the Flyers and the Devils, getting 27:33 and 25:19, respectively.
In fact, even though the Rangers played a stout game while dressing four righties and two lefties as Dan Boyle moved to his off-side without missing a beat, and even though coach Alain Vigneault said he is comfortable sticking with that alignment Wednesday in Pittsburgh, Gorton might even have to deal for a left defenseman if McDonagh is down for a significant stretch.
Wait a min-Larry Brooks said:Gorton might even have to deal for a left defenseman if McDonagh is down for a significant stretch.
@TSNBobMcKenzie said:Hearing lots of Dion Phaneuf trade chatter. Starting to think he could actually be dealt before the deadline.
Phaneuf to the Rangers would be the most Rangeresque move, why not
Darren Dreger ‏@DarrenDreger
Ottawa vets were asked about him recently. Lots of work being done there of late.
Dreger's suggesting Ottawa...

Who would it be for? Nash?
Would the leafs want to be really top heavy in forwards?
Phaneuf to Ottawa for 4th line winger Mike Hoffman
a 4th liner for a top 4 D, Bran Murray stays winning
Sorry, but you need to take Greening. Murray will always throw in Greening.
Phaneuf for greening + 1st
Heh heh heh
fuck my arshole unitl it bleeds shit.
Done!
Jokes on you! That first is now certain to be 30th!
Motherfucker.
I have no problem with the laffs taking a contract like Greening's back. His contract expires in 2017, just continue to bury him in the AHL which is what the Snes have done as of late anyway.
Bruce Garrioch also tweeted about the Sens being interested.... oh my
taking back bad money on shorter term is far preferable to retaining salary

anyway there was a lot of smoke about Detroit last year too which didn't amount to anything
we'll see...
Gardiner da gawd
How many years of Dion Pylon left?

Details sketchy, no confirmation, but sounds like OTT/TOR working on a trade involving Leaf captain Dion Phaneuf. Let's see where this goes.
