Could Bryan McCabe Resign with the Rangers?
Barbs asks: Do you think the Rangers will try and re-sign McCabe this summer? The dude has been money from the point on the power play.
Yup, Caber sure as hell has been a welcomed addition to the Rangers power play. In a matter of two games, he's completely changed the mentality on the man advantage. He effectively gets rubber on net and has a knack for getting the puck through traffic...

Getting to Know Bryan McCabe
When the Rangers acquired Bryan McCabe from the Florida Panthers yesterday, they didn't just acquire any old trade deadline rental. They acquired a veteran defenseman who is a proven leader and is tough nails. Case in point; McCabe caught a face full of puck during a game in January and broke his jaw, but he only missed one shift after a trainer put a protective cage on his helment...

McCabe Delivers Slap (shot), Fire Rangers Needed to Wake Up In Critical Game (w/video)

When the New York Rangers
acquired Bryan McCabe just before the trade deadline they did so with the
intent of using his experience and leadership to add another piece to a young

In the last nine games of the regular season, the Rangers were 1-for-27 on the power play. Granted, McCabe did have that one goal, the buzzer-beater at the end of [...]

McCabe Impact On Power Play Goes Beyond The Numbers
Normally I agree with George Ays of Tracking the Rangers when he says, “Numbers don’t lie, they just don’t agree with you.” One place where I don’t agree, at least not yet, is in terms of the impact Bryan McCabe has had on the New York Rangers power play. It has been five games and the stats say the man advantage is still struggling only converting on 3 of 20 (15%)...

That reason was to help quarterback the Blueshirts' struggling powerplay and give them the cannon of a shot from the point that they were lacking.

Bryan McCabe is the Rangers Best Option
The Rangers need to focus their efforts on Bryan McCabe. In their hunt to acquire a veteran, power play oriented defenseman, the Rangers have seen Tomas Kaberle, Eric Brewer, and Ian White among others fly off the board. Sheldon Souray was placed on waivers this weekend, but hopefully the voice of reason will be loud enough to keep the Rangers from claiming him. If the reports that...
