Sather - Brashear?

Not sure what Glen Sather was thinking when he signed Donald Brashear, do you? Yes, he’s an enforcer who can fight but that’s about all he can do, unless Sather and the rest of the Rangers’ brass saw something else.

What do you folks think of this?

i’m curious how he justifies this signing.  it’s worse than voros and rissmiller combined.

As a diehard ranger fan, more than anything, I’m sad

The Rangers are supposed to stand for something

this signing makes me think we stand for nothing at all.

*#$%@& THAT GUY

If I had to choose between them, I would have chosen Orr.  Plus, I think he signed for less, right?  So if you wanted a goon why not just keep the one you have?

I’ll miss Brashear here in Washington.  He was said to be a GREAT locker room guy.

That said, he was signed in New York for one BIG reason… the Philadelphia Flyers.

The Flyers have put together one of the toughest teams the NHL has seen in A LONG time.  They’re tougher than the Ducks Cup team. 

Brashear is a deterrent.  He did it last year for the Caps when he beat the snot out of Riley Cote; ran Powell; got jumped (no damage) by Gratton; and then scared the hell out of Asham. 

No matter how tough the Flyers are, the Rangers now have the trump card… Donald Brashear.
