Niemi traded to the Rangers

[puckhead]

Islanders send D Niemi to Rangers for sixth round pick

Note: this would be more of an April fools moment if the Hawks weren't still playing, and if goaltending wasn't the only thing that the Rangers didn't need.

but there you have it.

first trade between Isles/Rag$ since 1972

I'd take Niemi every day and twice on Sundays instead of overrated Lundqvist.

How is Lundqvist overrated?

How is Lundqvist overrated?

He's not as good as people seem to think he is?

LOL

 

[RangersReds03]

He's not as good as people seem to think he is?

I'm guessing this is sarcasm? Regardless I wonder what kind of numbers he could put up if he had a team like Chicago in front of him.

The Isles weren't going to sign him anyway. They took him in the 3rd round & got a 6th in return. Well it's better than nothing I guess.

I still can't believe the Flyers won that shootout.
