Via Sam Weinman of the Journal News:

…Martin Straka has a concussion and is out, according to Tom Renney, for at least the next two games.

Count on it being more than that. The Rangers are already overly cautious with injuries, and especially with anything to the head. A big determining factor is whether Straka still has any symptoms, because until any of those cease, a return date isn’t even worth discussing.

In Straka’s place, Nigel Dawes took the left wing alongside Scott Gomez and Jaromir Jagr.”

But in order to have credibility when you bash moves, you have to be fair on the good ones. Did you ever think that he'd be able to unload the remaining FIVE years on Gomez's pact while not taking back salary beyond th […]

      This is only a good deal because it gets rid of Kotalik. I doubt Jokinen is going to make a difference. I can't congratulate Sather for making up for his own mistake when the biggest mistake, Redden, is still out there for the next five, ?, years. […]
    • Comment on This Week in Rangers Hockey (Jean Ratelle Edition) by Ben
      Jean Ratelle was not only a gentleman on the ice but off it as well. Living in Long Beach, I grew up with the Rangers as my neighbors and Jean was always happy to give the local kids sticks and pucks so we could play in the street. His time with the Rangers was the golden age of hockey. I saw him fight only once and even that he did like a gentleman. No one […]
