I wouldn't say the best rumors guide but its 100x better than Egglund and hockeybuzz.

Oh God please Shanny, anyone but the Flyers. You were a very good Ranger, for the short time you were here. And you were always one of my favorites, even with the Wings. Good luck to you  But please...anywhere but Philly.

quote: Originally posted by knicksfan75: I just wonder if Sather had come out and say it to the reporters that the Rangers are not going to sign Shanny, what would people say about that?I thought if the team has only 250,000 left in cap space, Shanny knows the team cannot sign him and if he insists on waiting so that players can get traded to accommodate him, who's fault is that?
Regarding what I boldfaced above, that's not the point. It matters not to me what Sather tells the media or the fans as a general rule, b/c there are certain things that are privy to an organization in conjunction with the best interests of the organization, and my interest is in the Rangers winning games, not knowing all the inside info, b/c that is selfish of a fan. The point is, however, that if Slats had no designs on signing Shanny, the classy and respectful thing to do would have been not to tell the media or the fans, but TO TELL BRENDAN SHANAHAN HIMSELF four weeks ago. And, in light of how devoted Shanny has been to our organization, it makes what Sather did even more ungracious.

The truth will come out when we read a book about Shanny after he retires.
