TEAMS: New York Rangers
PLAYERS: Jaromir Jagr
Jagr
Burnside believes that the Rangers need to do something more dramatic than tinkering at the trade deadline if they hope to turn their season around. GM Glen Sather should consider trading captain Jaromir Jagr, says Burnside, a move that could serve as addition by subtraction. Burnside states, "It goes without saying that there would be a market for a player of Jagr's immense talent," which is interesting because it was only last season that Barry Melrose stated, "No one wants Jaromir Jagr." If Burnside is correct, and a team like Colorado, San Jose, or Vancouver would be interested in dealing for Jagr at the deadline, then the Rangers should listen hard. Adding a valuable asset in exchange for an expiring one is exactly the sort of move the team needs to pursue if it hopes to return to the Stanley Cup Finals in this new salary cap age.

  • You are out of your freaking mind!! He is one of the only guys scoring and doing anything. If anything we are losing because our defence sucks and noone knows how to take the body.
