Trio Of Moves
The Rangers and Oilers made their second deadline deal in as many seasons today, with Edmonton sending winger Anson Carter and defenseman Ales Pisa to the New York Rangers in exchange for right wing Radek Dvorak and defenseman Cory Cross.
Dvorak had been struggling with the Rangers scoring only 6 goals this year in 63 appearances, coming off a serious knee injury that cut last year’s campaign short. Cross, a defenseman the Rangers picked up earlier this year to fill in for several injured higher profile players, was leading New York in plus/minus with a +12 rating and had formed an effective pairing with Darius Kasparaitis.
