I do believe that walks him to UFA status next summer. There should be a lot of interest in his services if the Rangers don't sign him first.

He isn't a tough defenseman.

Who did Rob Blake trade Faber for again? Kevin Fiala? Wonder if he’d like a do-over on that one? Not sure about Blake as a GM. Coulda done a whole lot better with the Toffoli asset. The acquisition of Dubios was downright awful and giving up on Faber? Drafting Turcotte instead of Seider? How does Blake still have a job there? He better hope Kopitar and Doughty don’t retire soon.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing Chef. It was Faber and a 2022 first for Fiala. Throw in the Dubois trade and some questionable drafting in the first round and you have to think Blake has a very strong bond with the ownership there. Most people would be fired with a track record like that.
Faber AND a 1st? Holy Shitstorm Batman?!?!

Where’s Blobbee? He needs to chime in here.
I am here Chefmert107.

Blobbee, is Blake seriously receiving heat from LA Kings fans on HF?

I meant tough in the Chris Tanev sense Blob, not in the Dave Richter sense.

Of course you may disagree.

I'm no Ryan Lindgren expert Don. I was barely able to muster those three sentences about him, and it seems like more effort than it was worth at that. :)

Outside of 10 minutes ago, I knew nothing about this guy. But ESPN called him hard nosed. So, Megs, you are not alone on that assessment.

But with 1692 hours left to go, this could be an epic tilt. The click bait memes and titles could be Epic.

Blobby is a staunch defender of Mr Robert Blake...I think he like the big ol' ghetto booty hip checks he used to lay out. I bet he's shaped like the Rootbear
Blobbee certainly loves old school rock em sock em. It’s why he keeps giving Blake and Shanahan mulligans as executives when it’s been proven they are both absolutely terrible at their jobs.

:lol: yeah, I admittedly poached what little I know about Lindgren from the Rangers broadcasts and they at least consider him blood and guts.

And anytime I watch him play he always seems to be getting hobbled by something or other and staying in the game.

So there's that too. :wink:

I agree. He's a solid hard nosed player..Albeit, a bit undersized.

Nah. They print way too much truth. My drivel is best reserved for the tabloids, such as the CBC.
