Cheechoo On Waivers; Fit For Rangers?
Former 50 goal scorer Jonathan Cheecoo has been placed on waivers by the Ottawa Senators today. While he is no longer the player he once was, he could provide some secondary scoring. He would, at the very least, be an upgrade over Donald Brashear. Since our resident cap expert, Dave, is on vacation, I have no idea of the cap implications. But, could it work? Put him on the third or fourth line, hope he scores a couple goals? Maybe if he plays on a line with a top player (Gaborik) he could regain his scoring touch. A low-risk, high-reward move.

saw somewhere he has one more year left on his deal that has a cap-hit of $3 million.

Darren Dredger is reporting the rangers have acquired Jody Shelley for a draft pick (not known yet). Anyone see Shelley drop Colton Orr last night. Could finally be the tough buy we need.
Hopefully we get an official announcement soon
