Hopefully because Girardi will sit alot of games or get bought out soon. Obvious choice if they wanted another alternate. Previous captain in Columbus etc, not a big surprise. Hopefully he can bounce back from last years season after all the injury problems etc.

Not sure he got it over Zucc but sure. I guess all that backchecking paid off.

And for the record, I hate the rotating A's. Should only be 2.

Good for Nasher, he was a leader with or without the A. Hopefully this gives him a little bit more confidence, which will hopefully lead to a better season. :handclap:

Our captains are our 5 highest paid players on the team.

Lundy can not get it as a goalie. Next up would be Kreider.

Nash-7.8
Stepan-6.5
Staal-5.7
Giradi-5.5
McD-4.7

Kreider? He's not exactly leadership material, not yet anyway

Maybe I was not as clear as I should have been in my post. Sorry about that.

I meant Kreider (4.625 mill) was next up based on us having our 5 highest paid skaters (goalies can't be captain). Kreider is our 6th highest paid skater.

I think this is the first interview with Amanda as well. She now gets to experience what we experience when Rick Nash stares into our souls through the camera. :laugh:

I guess I need to comment it - Fine, Nash is a solid A - better than Glass at least. ;)

The main thing is he plays better than he did last season. He needs 30 goals anyway. If he can do that and do the usual back checking etc. I'm okay with him.

Technically this depends on how you wanna describe if these are the highest paid contracts paid by the team in 2016/2017 or if these are players actually playing on the aforementioned team.

Brad Richards gets paid $5,055,556 from the New York Rangers for this season.

Think about that for a minute

:naughty:

Yes Zooks is currently the 8th highest paid player on the team.

7th if you do not count Lundy.

Zucc has one of the best ufa contracts in the league if you look at his age and how well he played the years prior to his ufa deal. Left alot of money on the table to stay in NY.
