qwksndmonster Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Speaking of, didn't Drew (post trade) do very good for himself in any up coming contract talks? Yes he did. Good ol' Drew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattPie Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Yes he did. Good ol' Drew. While I wouldn't sign him or anything, it's not unusual for a player to play well initially when traded. They feel like they have something to prove, or at least they're paying a ton of attention trying to learn their new surroundings. It's no different than any job in a way. He wasn't playing that well before the trade so I don't think the contract-year theory holds as much water as some think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking something that can be abused by welfare recipients just to tick off some of our more conservative brethren :p Seriously though, I'll choose by the weekend.

And he really did seem to be trying hard for us earlier this year. He's still Drew Stafford, though.

bunomatic Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) Ranger that got hit from behind on the winning goal used it as a strategy. Serves him right. Clearly he turned his back and braced for the hit. Coach was pissed he never got the call. Edited May 1, 2015 by bunomatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyldnwoody44 Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 I don't think that's bad officiating at the end.... They've been consistently allowing that stuff all playoff long, Rangers needed to pay attention there.... And again ovi tore them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
