No but really what’s his deal, is he a free agent now?

The only real bad one now is Redden, at least Drury and Roszival serve a purpose. It is what it is. The only real bad one now is Redden, at least Drury and Roszival serve a purpose.

The Bad: The Rangers have 8, count em, 8 of 25, for you math whiz kids, that's 32%, woof! The Good: The Rangers were able to deal Gomez, thus freeing up space to land Gaborik (I feel weird calling him "Gabby"). The Rangers were also able to take advantage of Sean Avery's terrible signing, where the Stars and Rangers are splitting the contract, but not his services. Other notables, Paul Kariya was listed twice (Blues 2007, Avalanche 2003)...so I guess the Rangers are on the hook for only 8 of 26. Maybe one that should get honorable mention, the Rangers overpaying Rozsival... Sather is only on the hook for 5 of the 8 btw...silver lining anyone? What's everyone else's thoughts on SI's list.

I was wondering where everyone went for the cap numbers...I use Cap Central via Hockey Buzz. I don't really like Hockey Buzz for rumors, but their cap page seems pretty solid. The reason I'm asking is cause I thought Vally was signed for 09-10, but he's not listed...small detail yes, but just curious.
