hope everyone had a happy thanksgiving

Ain’t coming back at the rate he’s going.

any ideas as to what we might get for him? with the way we have drafted the last couple of years i certainly wouldnt mind adding picks.

Girardi’s been the worst PK d-man to date.
More goals overall have been allowed with him on the ice than anyone else, despite playing with the 2nd best quality of teammates.

So I think one can certainly question whether or not he’s our 2nd best d-man this year (IMO, that honor goes to Gilroy thus far)

But beyond that, and much more importantly, he’s a RFA, and he’s going to command at least 1.75m next year and probably closer to 2.5m, and there is a veritable army of defenseman in the organization that are going to find their way into the lineups over the next couple years, and they’re going to make less than 2.5m.

Getting rid of Rozsival/Redden is not exactly as easy as snapping your fingers and getting rid of them, and if Sanguinetti plays up to speed, it is Girardi’s spot that is most likely in jeopardy to make room for Sangs next year, with R & R parting ways to make room for McDonagh and Budweiser when the time comes.

It’s not a matter of wanting to get rid of him, it’s a matter of being realistic about the future of the Rangers organization, and whether you like it not, Girardi is playing for his job and so far has not played to the level he’ll need to play at to keep it.
