still need some D

Shannahan has signed on for another season, Lundqvist is in for one more. Avery and Hossa are still out there and there is still that HUGE hole on defense. I'd give Avery and Hossa to get a solid, strong, stay at home defenseman. In my eyes the defense, or lack of, was the biggest problem the Rangers had last season. You can argue that the kids are more experienced now, bigger strong, but they still need a leader back there.

Key chain update: Dana's broke too. Same exact spot as mine. Two days after the Drury/Gomez announcement.

now just sign the goalie!

Wow! What a weekend! As of this morning 2 of the top centers in the NHL will be wearing blue shirts next season. Drury and Gomez don't come cheap, Drury's in for 35.25 mil over 5 season, Gomez 51.5 over 5. Do you realize that Drury has been a champion at ever level since he as a kid? Little League World Series winner, hockey state champs in high school, nationals in college, Hobey Baker winner, Calder Trophy, Stanley Cup. And Gomez, he's won 2 cups over here Jersey side. Big talent, proven winners, both universally thought of as "good guys". I just hope there's enough cap room to keep Shanney in blue for one more season.

oh, and I found the broken off half of my key chain. Dana says she can fix it. I'd rather have a new one!
