Adam Larsson
Adam Henrique
Thomas Vanek
Colin Jacobs
The Sabres would like to thank Vanek for him time as a Buffalo Sabre, this is a very bold move and we may not have gotten full value for Vanek but this clears up almost 6 million in extra cap space to upgrade our offense, with Backes, Pominville, Getzlaf, Zetterberg, Grabovski, Vermette, and Henrique we should have no problems scoring and thats what made Vanek Expendable
The Rangers are ecstatic to announce the signing of the top-sought after free agent this winter of Zach Parise! We have had Zach on our radar since he was first drafted and we knew he has been a Ranger fan for his entire life. We feel his style of play, leadership and scoring touch will put us over the top to bring us back to the Stanley Cup Finals and win us the Cup this season.
10 years @ 9 million/season
We know we paid a lot for him, but we have a TON of cap space with such a young team.
Projected line-up as of right now:
Parise-Richards-Callahan
Hagelin-Stepan-Gaborik
Adam-Ennis-Downie
Dorsett-Boyle-Prust
McDonagh-Girardi
MDZ-Stralman
Erixon-Sauer
Hank
Biron
Great signing by the Rangers....I find it very interesting how NYR can fetch the top free agent two years in a row...must be the city....this keeps them as a frontrunner in the East.
