MICHAL ROZSIVAL RUMORS

Playing Against Rangers Means Something to Rozsival

Andrew Gross at Rangers Rants caught up with former Ranger Michal Rozsival to discuss facing the Blueshirts for the first time since being traded to the Coyotes for Wojtek Wolski last season..."I think any player, when they play against their old team, it means a little more to you," Rozsival said. "You have memories. When you get traded, you want to do well. You&...

Rozsival finally escaping concussion's clutches

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Michal Rozsival smiled when asked if he had any concerns about playing back-to-back games just one week after returning to the Coyotes lineup. Whats too soon? he said after Thursdays 4-2 win over Edmonton. It felt like forever. Time moves slowly for most injured players as they work their way back to health. Time absolutely crawls for guys with concussions. ...

What The Rozsival Trade Means For The Cap

When the Rangers traded Michal Rozsival for Wojtek Wolski, they took on a contract identical in length (one remaining year after this season), but at a $1.2 million discount. Using CapGeek’s daily tracker, the Rangers bank an extra $6,000 per day towards this year’s trade deadline (using the formula of salary / 186 day regular season). That is roughly an extra $288,000 the...

Rangers Acquire Wolski From Coyotes For Rozsival

According to Darren Dreger of TSN the New York Rangers have traded Michal Rozsival to the Phoenix Coyotes for Wojtek Wolski.  .  The move will save the Rangers 1.2 million against the cap this season and bring in an extremely talented if underperforming forward to give the Rangers another push as they look to rise to the ranks of contender.  Wolksi, 24, has six goals and ten assists...

The Pre-Game: Rozsival Ready To Go Against The Predators

Some quick pre-game thoughts..- Michal Rozsival is good to go tonight and will make his return. If he continues to play the way he did before he was injured he'll be a big boost to the Rangers back line. It's a tough call who is going to sit tonight. Neither Gilroy, Sauer, or Eminger have played themselves out of the lineup in his absence. My guess is Gilroy will be wearing...

Key Decisions To Be Made When Rozsival Returns

Michal Rozsival has been a relatively under appreciated player by the fans. Rozsival plays 20 minutes per game, and while he does not excel in any particular facet of the game, he is a good overall defender that has become an essential piece on the Rangers blue line. Rozsival went down with a sprained shoulder two weeks ago, and the Rangers did not call up any replacements from...

Losing Rozsival Creates Huge Void For Rangers

For many Rangers fans, especially coming into the season the thought of Michal Rozsival missing from the lineup was not necessarily a bad thing. In fact for some it was advocated as the next move to make now that Wade Redden had finally been banished to Hartford. I never bought into that theory and with his play so far this season Rozsival has proven not only to be a valuable asset...

Michal Rozsival’s Strong Play

Michal Rozsival. His name will never be popular with New York Rangers fans. It also remains a fact that at $5m per season the veteran Czech blue liner is nicely overpaid but it’s come to the stage where Rangers fans need to acknowledge how vital a presence Rozsival has become on a young and emerging defensive corps. Rozsival was poor (at best) for the first half of last year following...

Why the Hate on Rozsival?

Getty ImagesLast night, despite recording a goal and an assist in a 3-1 victory over the New Jersey Devils, defenseman Michal Rozsival still heard the boos from the Madison Square Garden crowd. Rozsival, who is in his second to last year of his contract with the Rangers, has arguably been one of the better defensemen on this team so far, and leads the entire blue-line in scoring...
