Gonna be interesting to see the canes. Theyre a grimey bunch that lack talent but get in front in the dirty areas. Schmid wasnt tested much this series. All shots from the outside mostly
NMCs tie their hands to a point.

There is still the option to approach a player and ask for what teams they would be willing to waive the NMC for, with the underlying implication that if they refuse you might be looking to buyout their contract at some point and they will only get 2/3 of the remaining money they signed up for, and over a longer time period than they expected.

2/3 the money, but the chance to sign another contract or not having to go to work. Many of those guys wouldn’t be unemployed for long.

Lets be honest and not act like this employee was some innocent kid. He was antagonizing rangers fans waving in their faces. He learned a lesson.

As they say, people have gotten wayyyy too comfortable being disrespectful these days thinking they wont get punched in the face
So says the guy who chants inappropriate stuff during our National Anthem. Your statement makes you just as much of an *** as this idiot. The kid was waving a cardboard sign. That's a reason for a full on adult to sucker punch him? You are un-fvckin- believable.

To the guy who insinuated after Game 1 that Devils owners didn’t care too much about the hockey team. This is cool.

LOL
1) he was waving in fans faces after their team lost a game 7, have some awareness
2) no where in that video is he punched

Little punk is looking for a pay day. Low class move by the punk

Funny thing, as Mr. Toughguy is walking up the stairs, there doesnt seem to be any interaction with the employee. In fact, the employee is looking 90 degrees to the walking direction of this ***, no eye contact, no hand waving, no nothing. When the idiot gets to the same level he throws two punches at his head. Really, a classless act and even more classless for you to defend his actions. I hope he gets arrested like last year's tough guy who assaulted the dude wearing the Lightning jersey.

If you're going to a game 7 at the other team's arena, you're gonna get taunted. That's what you're signing up for. If you can't handle that, man, don't go.

Even lower class move by the fan. Is he really that insecure that being waved at promotes such a response?? What a loser

Many Rangers fans in that thread were disgusted by that attack and didn't justify it, Kyle just showing his true colors is all.

Disagree. The hit was clean, the result was unfortunate.

Scott Stevens says hello. Pretty sure nobody complained when he unleashed on people; also NOT penalties.

My brother is traveling to pick up my nephew who goes to South Carolina, they tried to buy tickets for Game 1 in Carolina but were blocked because the Canes won't see tickets to anyone from NJ, so my nephew's roommate had to buy the tickets for them.

The Panthers did the same thing…have to have a US zip code on Ticketmaster to order your seats.

Guess they are afraid of those crazy Toronto folks. LOL

True, and I don’t know how much buyouts are even a threat with the Rangers anyway, because they front load contracts with bonuses a lot.

I wouldnt have hit him because its not worth it. But lets not pretend this was some innocent kid, “doing his job”. Does his job say antagonize opposing fans and wave in their face.

Kids a ***** for posting it on social media looking to sue. Very very ***** move. Female stuff

You got to be a real soft ***** to have a problem with that. Oh, wait a minute, you are okay with fans being vocal and all, ie national anthem, which by the way I have no problem with because I'm not a hypocrite.

Yeah im not dumb enough to try to equate “lets go rangers” by the whole arena during the anthem to a guy waving in pissed off fans faces for no other reason other to antagonize them and then pulling his victim card after he **claims** (no video proof) of getting “punched”.

Look, I wish we could go back in time 15 years pre social media. Where people werent nearly as comfortable being disrespectful because there was a real threat of getting clocked. We cant go back tho. But this kid is a total ***** for running to social media playing victim and yall eating it up.

What happened at rangers lightning? That rangers fan should be in jail. This? This kid is a loser who shouldnt have said **** and my guess is his employee is gonna have a talking with him as they should

Yeah, you are dumb enough, you just did it. There is nothing wrong with thrash talking and none of it justifies being attacked. Get out of here with this ********.

You can disagree that is fine.

But if you wave in an angry persons face and get “punched” (which again video doesnt show a single punch so the punk is likely embellishing it) then dont play victim. Thats all.

I had people waving in my face when i left after the handshake too. I just kept walking because theyd get rich off me, id get nothing out of them besides blood

This angle makes this guy look even more pathetic


Haha now this is a better angle. The guy was clearly pissed and should not have hit the guy.

But this is the classic **** around and find out. He waves in the guys face after he just spent $750 to watch his team get whacked in a game 7, last thing he wants is so punked waving in his face.

In my world this is a shut your mouth and learn your lesson. Dont run to social media like a *****

You're an idiot wrapped around a moron. Watch the video again, the kid wasn't even looking at the loser Rags fan, he was minding his own business and he got hit with a cheap shot.

If anything the kid was doing his job, that have them all over the arena to fire up the crowd.

You're why people hate Rangers fans. Arrogance that you can cheer the way you want but other fans must "behave" themselves.

I know we are all Rutgers giants Mets Yankees fans. Most of us like the same 3 of 4 major teams.

Mets fan here who is annoyed at Yankees talking crap, but Yankees won in ‘09 00 and the 3 peat , plus 27 blah blah.

Why are rangers fans so arrogant??
ONE in 80 years. ONE. Couldn’t win when there were only 6 teams. Six.

One last thing …

Ooooooooo oooooooooo
Oooooooooo oooooooo

Hey hey hey Rangers suck !!!!!

Historically, the Rangers are one of the most underachieving teams ever. It remember reading an article on the athletic a few years ago that backed that up. Besides teams that have never won before, the Rangers were right there.

Tampa, NJ, and Colorado were 3 overachieving teams I remember.

He didn't wave the sign at all. This might be worse than the RHJ draft predictions.

He pretty clear fell backwards and bumped into the guys wife/gf.
The guy then punched him.
While not justified, it is actually more justified than just punching because of a sign.
If your going to have an awful take - at least have one that makes sense.

Not really sure how anyone can interpret it differently.

Nah. Watch the first video than this one. This one just shows him standing there. First one gives context of him antagonizing the rangers fans literally standing over them waving in their faces
