Scott Gomez and Chris Drury: The Dilemma Continues For The Rangers
Scott Gomez and Chris Drury: The Dilemma Continues For The Rangers
Ask any hockey analyst out there and they will more then likely tell you that in order for the Rangers to succeed next season, they will have to move one of the four major contracts that currently have a strangle-hold on this team. SNY analyst Brian Monzo told me in an interview that Michal Rozsival would be the easiest to trade.

Four Free Agents Worth The Fight
Scotty Hockey — ... stuff out there, how is this for a trade proposal: Rangers trade Scott Gomez and one of their second round draft picks to either Colorado or Atlanta for their first round pick (third or fourth overall). Since Joe Sakic may just retire, his $6 mil will come off the Aves' books so they would be able to handle Gomez's contract and he could slide in behind Paul Stastny as the second line center he has always been with speedy wingers like Svatos or Wolski to work with.
