Add Vesey and you have about $10M freed up. Plus Trouba...$18M.

Vesey doesn’t make enough to make a difference and I’m not advocating or expecting all of them to be gone

Oh boy, I see you a few of you guys are still having your period

when your franchise goalie has an agent asking for a massive % of the team cap for his client, every little bit helps.

I was offering it up as a way to maybe save the blog. No need to be bigoted towards pickles

Lindgren deal is interesting. Basically says this could be the last crack at it. Gives Drury the ability to move him as well at tdl.

Happy to see Lindgren coming back for another bite at the apple, I think its a fair deal.

Lindgren is such a tough customer I bet he is relishing the fact that he is betting on himself to have a big year. A motivated Lindgren is definitely a positive for the Rangers!

I am sorry what? Crippled ass? Jeez.

Jan, you know there's no such thing as nuance here! Only extreme views allowed.

Pssst. PSSSSSSSSSTTT!
He's a defensive defenseman. Not one person in the organization is concerned about him generating offense. Take away the offensive stats and he's at about a 70-75% for a down year. I'll live with that and sleep well.

i feel like a motivated lindgren will put himself in situations that will injure him even more

Right the message here though is that the team scores a lot less than they usually do when he's on the ice.

We were 7th in the league in goals per game this season. I think we'll be ok. But, there were situations where we were screaming for defense.

Jan,I think he is looking for more years and $$$$. 4 years to me would have been fine and the dollars.
