Agree 100%, we can't jump the gun and saying this is a miss of a draft pick since AA can still report next season. Not sure if AA would make a real difference this yr for the Rangers anyways. Question.... if AA doesn't report this season does it gives MM a chance to pickup a solid Import\OA forward on waivers throughout the CHL?
Ward, he could only do that if he released the rights to one of the two whose rights they currently have. I still think it's 50/50 as to whether he comes. The entire coaching staff are former NHLers, one of whom is a D-man who played in Boston and another who is a Swede. Connections run deep in the hockey world. It'd start with the Rangers making some guarantees about ice time/role. We shall see, but it's not a done deal either way yet.
