Rangers re-sign Martin Biron
Via Larry Brooks, the Rangers have re-signed backup goalie Martin Biron for two years and $2.6M. The 34-year-old netminder posted a 2.46 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 21 games last year, capably filling in as the club was able to rest Henrik Lundqvist for the stretch drive. Re-signing Biron — or replacing him another solid backup — was a top priority this summer and it...
Rangers re-sign backup G Martin Biron
The Rangers are keeping Martin Biron away from free agency.
Biron, who agreed to his new deal with the Rangers on Friday, could have become an unrestricted free agent on Sunday.
The 34-year-old Biron, the backup to Vezina Trophy winner Henrik Lundqvist, was 20-12-2 with a 2.32 goals-against average the past two seasons with New York. He also had a .912 save percentage and two shutouts...
Yet another signing making Sather look good.
Right before free agency opens up another desperate general manager on another desperate team has once again made Glen Sather look good. While there’s no doubting the Flames acquisition of Dennis Wideman was a solid move, the contract given to him by Jay Feaster smacks of desperation and makes Ranger contracts like Marc Staal’s and in particular Dan Girardi’s look like excellent...
Could the Rangers move Dubinsky back to center?
Everyone assumes that Brandon Dubinsky will be the one ‘major’ piece to move if the Rangers acquire a high priced/elite forward through a means other than free agency. Non free agency acquisition likely means Rick Nash or Bobby Ryan. One of the major issues here is that Anaheim likely wants a cheaper piece than Dubinsky and Columbus wants a lot more in addition to Dubinsky.

Biron Back With the Blueshirts

Larry Brooks @NYP_Brooksie
NYR have completed vital bit of business. Post has learned that Biron has re-upped for 2 years, $2.6 total.
There is no doubt that Biron has been a valuable asset to the Blueshirts since joining the team in the 2010-11 season. Biron has showed...
Justin Schultz is not coming to New York
In the end, the Wisconsin connection just wasn’t enough.
New York made it to the final six in the Justin Schultz sweepstakes, but in the end the 21-year-old Badgers defenseman chose to play elsewhere. TSN’s Bob McKenzie reports that Schultz won’t be joining the Rangers, meaning he’ll end up with Toronto, Ottawa, Vancouver, or Edmonton.
The Rangers made a presentation to...
Player Review: Stu Bickel
Stu Bickel was not expected to remain with the New York Rangers long after being recalled by the team in December of 2011. However, it turns out that he would go on to play 51 regular season games in addition to 18 postseason contests before the end of the 2011-12 campaign. Who once was intended to be a temporary spot-filler suddenly molded into a permanent skater on the blue-line...

Oy Vey Overhyped, Overrated and Overboard
Me Not Crazy Yet
So here we sit fans of the New York Rangers waiting for the beginning of the second most overhyped and overrated days in the NHL calendar. July 1st otherwise known as the start of unrestricted free agency in the NHL.
Ranger fans expect the Rangers to make big move after big move while at the same time praying that the move does not backfire on them. Forgive...
UFA of the Day: Brandon Prust
Today on this not so gorgeous Saturday I battle what is either the start of a cold, or a hangover. But either way, here is today’s UFA of the Day. It addresses something I haven’t written about yet. Toughness. Here is Brandon Prust in today’s UFA of the Day.
Name: Brandon Prust
Age: 27
Size: 6’2″, 192 Lbs
Why the Canucks might want him: Toughness. If you want to beef up...
What To Expect From The Rangers
from Larry Brooks of the NY Post, It’s difficult to determine just who Sather might target over the next 48 hours. There is no credible right defenseman on the market to fill the second-pair hole on defense that remains wide open after University of Wisconsin free agent Justin Schultz’s decision yesterday to sign with the Oilers.
Rather than throw Monopoly money at marginal...
