Christmas In July

Thank god the broken air conditioner in my car reminded how hot it was, because I thought I saw snowflakes falling from the sky.
Anything But Free
Last year several of the big names went off the board before the free agent period had even began, this year it was a different story. With bundles of cash at the ready, Rangers GM Glen Sather went full steam ahead with the win now philosophy and bought two of the biggest names available. Is there more to come? By the time you read this article there could well be another one or two players added to the growing all-star team that we know as the New York Rangers.
The Rangers got in early on the first day of free agency with a visit by assistant coach Terry O’Reilly paying an early morning visit to Bill Guerin. Although nothing has come of that particular soiree as of this time, the Rangers were thought to be well and truly in the hunt for the two time 40 goal scorer.
