Wings' Kronwall out 4-8 weeks with knee injury

Rangers Deal Montoya, Li'l Hossa
TEAMS: New York Rangers
PLAYERS: Marcel Hossa,  Miika Wiikman,  Henrik Lundqvist
I'm not sure if there were still any fans out there that believed Montoya was considered a blue-chip prospect - especially after the former first-round pick lost his job in Hartford this season to the unheralded Miika Wiikman. Nevertheless, this is a blow to a franchise that, at the very least, expected to be able to spin the highly-touted Montoya for a valuable asset in the wake of Henrik Lundqvist's emergence as a premier NHL netminder.

    Leneveu is nothing to frown at. He's actually being reunited with his goaltending coach, so this is a great move. Hossa? Well, I like his brother, but Marcel has never done much....
