Rangers Appear To Be Headed to Arbitration With Kreider

The Rangers are behaving curiously this summer.   First, they were in pretty good cap shape, but then pissed it away by increments on older players who will block kids.   Because of those questionable investments, they must now play a dangerous arbitration game with three of their best young players: Kreider; Brassard and MZA.  The problem with arbitration is that it can be so hurtful and foster bad feelings from the players across the table.   The Rangers need a better way to handle their young core, and not just the McD's.

In the meantime, this offseason, which features all these veteran bandaids, seems to indicate a trade of some of the kid forwards is probably in the offing. We'll deal with that when we know who for, but the signs are pretty bright.

Boomer, who scooped everyone on the Cally/msl trade says that Klein and his 2.9 will be traded. If so, that will free up some $$$ depending on who the rangers get back. If the return is draft picks or prospects, that'll free up the entire $2.9. Maybe Sather is waiting for all this arb stuff is over before pulling the trigger on the deal.
