After reading numerous posts, it appears that people on here do not want to give up much for Nash, but are flirting with the idea of having such a prolific scorer with size.

Three days to go until the final decision. So, yes or no? Do you want Nash to become a Ranger? No time for "only if..." reasons. If the Rangers say that they have a trade in place that Columbus has agreed to, but won't release the details other than Nash becoming a Rangers, and they are awaiting your answer to go with it or not, what would you say?

Vote! Because we love democracy. We love the right to vote. The freedom to vote. That's right..........we......love..........AMERICA. Oooooo Nash can you see...... our red buzzer does not light..... What so un-proudly we hail, is our shitty ass power play.... (anyone care to continue?)

It all depends on what it takes to get him. If we can keep Kreider, McDonagh and Del Z on the team (along with the core of Gaborik, Richards, Lundqvist, Callahan), then cool, I'd be interested. But I'd really like to hang on to Hagelin and Anisimov as well.

Does that mean you'd be willing to lose Girardi and/or Staal? And why are you up so late, anyway?

Nash is a special talent and he would definitely fill a need on the team so I wouldn't mind if we lost a guy or two.

Gartner and Amonte were both favorites of mine and they both went for who? Larmer and someone? I liked Jeff Larmer a lot and he scored some big goals that year but Nash should play a much greater role than anyone the Rangers added in '94 - and should continue to contribute meaningfully for years.

Seriously!? Who the hell is JEFF Larmer!? C'mon!

And I don't know that you can make the arguement that Nash will make more of a difference than any of those guys... The guys added back in '94 helped sustain the grittiness of that team through a lot of playoff games that year... Remember they didn't go out and win a bunch of 4-0 series'... I hope that if Nash comes here he can help them go deep and not just help them look flashy finishing out a great regular season because the only thing that matters will be how they fare once the regular season is done. These guys have a playoff spot locked up and yeah home-ice would be great and all but at this point I think they need to start conditioning the younger guys for the run and definitely ease up on Lundqvist and I think that those two things would make more of a difference long term.

Actually, I meant Steve Larmer, Jeff's older brother, who scored 35 goals for the Rangers at the end of his career.

And yeah, he will make more of a difference because dime a dozen guys are called dime a dozen for a reason. They may have exceptional moments when they score a cup-winning goal but they aren't the guys coaches devise special schemes and tactics to contain.

btw, I voted a 'conditional' yes.
