Matthew Barnaby unloads his unfiltered thoughts on the Rangers.

The New York Rangers have been going through something of a chaotic season and it would seem that all the chaos surrounding the team has rubbed some players the wrong way.

That much appears evident when the Rangers hit the ice with even some of their well established veterans seeming uninspired out there on the ice, but things have now gotten so bad that even former players are now coming forward to express their displeasure at the current state of their former team.

This week, former Ranger Matthew Barnaby was a guest on the Snipes and Stripes podcast, hosted by former National Hockey League forward and Hockey Hall of Fame inductee Jeremy Roenick as well as former NHL referee Tim Peel, and during his appearance on the podcast Barnaby absolutely unloaded on the Rangers.

"I had New York contending for a f***ing Cup," said a fired up Barnaby.

Barnaby pointed the finger of blame not at the players on the ice but at both the head coach, Peter Laviolette, and the general manager, Chris Drury, although it wasn't clear which man was getting the brunt of Barnaby's displeasure.

"Either it's Drury or Laviolette, I don't know which one, but I watch enough Rangers games to know that they are f***ing putrid," said Barnaby.

Even New York Rangers owner James Dolan found himself in Barnaby's cross hairs during the podcast, although to be fair it didn't sound like Barnaby was blaming Dolan for the current state of the Rangers. Instead, Barnaby indicated that he simply had very little faith in Dolan's competency when it comes to making hockey-related decisions for the Rangers.

"I wouldn't pay James dolan $50 a week to walk my dog," said Barnaby.

There were some pretty brutal comments from Barnaby and unfortunately I think they are the kind of comments that many fans of the franchise will find themselves agreeing with at this stage of the season, especially with the Rangers plummeting down the standings in the Metropolitan Division.

Do you agree with Barnaby's take? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
