More than that. Think at least $5 mill per.

Yep. Kreider got 4 @ 4.65 as a wing. As a center and signing a year later, have to figure around 5 for mika.

If fast signs for 1.25 or so, and Klein is off books, rangers have about 5 million left to spend on center/forwards

Gorton is going to do Miller + in a trade and get Duchene. Gorton is a jedi master
- mdw7413

Which top young d'man will Sakic demand in return in part for Duchene? He already turned down Hamonic plus much more from the Islanders. Also, it was reported that many GM's were unhappy with his tactics used in trade discussions.

Yeah he did. He likes it because of the 4 years. In his and mrn's defense they didn't want to sign him because they figured it would be a much longer term.

I'll admit was way against the idea but you cant complain about a 4 year deal under 7

The Shatty deal is a win, win. The Rangers get a top RH dmam, at a very manageable contract. He gets to play for the team he always wanted to play for.

What Gorton just did with Shattenkirk, I have all the faith in the world he will bring in a center and it won't hurt the team. Obviously I was being tongue in cheek about Duchene, but there is no way they are going into the season with the only 2 NHL centers as Zib & Hayes

Wish we could have gotten Burmistrov too, 900k for him seems like a steal

Shatty just said on NHL Network

"Well it doesn't have to be a 7 year deal right away. Who is to say it can't be a 4 year deal followed by a 3 year deal"

He is already looking at his next contract with the Rangers

As a 4th line Center I think he's very good, was obviously supposed to be more but never reached it

pretty amazing the reaction to this deal out there.

i know i sound like vin but its nuts. people poop themselves if the rangers overpay, people poop themselves if the rangers get break on a FA.

i wonder what the hate would be like if we'd actually won cups lol

No matter where he signed, Shatty was getting between 6-7 million per year

To get him at 6.65 for only 4 years is a steal. Him paired with McDonagh is going to be a dynamite d pair.

I can't believe it's only 4 years, 4 PRIME years still of the mans career. Loving this more by the minute

Reading his interview to, he wanted to be a Ranger so bad. He left a ton of money on the table to be happy. Hard not to cheer for this guy.

Do two right handed offensive D man?

Deangelo and Shattenkirk

Not to bad Gorton

- TPC

... and after buying out Girardi, originally only having Kampher, but now as a call up only.
However, the question is who sits out in some or most games if Deangelo is on the roster, & if so, will one get traded, i.e., among Staal or Holden?
McD - Shatty
Skjei - Smith
Staal/Holden - Holden/Deangelo
