I really don't like Mike Milbury. Didn't before this comment, still don't afterward.

Mike Milbury??

Wasn't he the one who, during his 7 1/2 year tenure as NYI GM, fired seven head coaches (including himself, twice?)

Yeah, that's someone whose opinion I really give a shiz about . . .


Anyway, I figure this is a good omen for us: I remember Brett Hull on NBC shouting "LET'S GO RANGERS!!" at intermission of game six of the 2006-07 Sabres/NYR East semifinal in NY -- a game the Sabres won. Thanks, Brett! And, thank you, Mad Mike!

Just off the top of my head, Milbury was responsible for the departure of:
Chara
Luongo
Jokinen
The pick that would become Spezza
Palffy

Fucking god

He has traded away defensemen Zdeno Chara, Wade Redden, Bryan Berard, Eric Brewer, Darius Kasparaitis, and Bryan McCabe; goalies Roberto Luongo and Tommy Salo, as well as forwards Olli Jokinen, Todd Bertuzzi, Tim Connolly, and Raffi Torres. Milbury has also come under fire for his draft day decisions such as choosing Rick DiPietro first overall in 2000 over Dany Heatley and Marian Gaborik; as well as his decision to include the 2001 second overall draft pick (Jason Spezza) as part of the Alexei Yashin trade.

Straight from Wikipedia.

As I said in the GDT, the call on Rivet was horseshit. The Bruins player was holding onto Rivet's stick like it was the last fucking raft on the Titanic.
