Cally is already paying dividends on that contract and he has yet to step on the ice.

I really like that they made that into an article on NHL.com, it’s just a great way to acknowledge Cally as the well-liked and respected player that he is around the league.

 

[Stammer Time*]

The Gators or Seminoles should hire him as Recruiting coordinator.

 

[BOLTMAN]

It should be stammer C, Hedman and Callahan A going forward.

Yes Yes and Yes

Did you see this clip, Brie..

This was one clip that really touched a lot of Ranger fans hearts...



No, it was not the part where Brandon Prust was offering Cally a body rub. lol.

It's really cool that Callahan resigned before the FA period started. That showed me how much this organization wowed him. Everybody was so sure he would get way over paid on the open market and wouldn't resign here. At least people on the main board thought this. It's even cooler that he inspired Stralman and Boyle to sign here.

I am sure he knew there was no better offer available when he signed. Buffalo did fine without him

I just loved that part and all parts with Cally in them because they really showed what a great guy and teammate he is. And I did love Prust there, really funny.

He signed the contract before FA even started so he never even attempted to look around on the market but seeing as he was one of the top UFA’s this year (seeing as he was pretty much the only one who brings what he brings) it’s safe to say that there defiantly would have been a bidding war over him but between how many teams it’s hard to know but there would defiantly been several off them.

And make it even harder for my Hurricanes? No thanks.

He had the 1 week free-agent interview period before he signed. He got close to top dollar.

Actually he signed the night before other teams were able to contact him.
