A first look at the 2013-2014 $60 million Rangers
A $60 million cap will be tough to get to with Ryan McDonagh as an RFA.
As mentioned yesterday, the NHL is very adamant about sticking to a $60 million cap for the 2013-2014 season. This has a lot of the larger market teams worried, as GMs built their clubs for at least a $70 million cap, not a $60 million cap. The Rangers have a total of 16 players (10 forwards, 4 defensemen, 2...
Rangers to Buyout Gaborik?
