Rangers Re-Up McIlrath

Rangers came to terms on a new one year deal with Dylan McIlrath.  At 800K if Bozo the Coach lets him play, he'll be a huge bargain this year and another potential cap bomb next year.  The kid is good.  Meanwhile, they also extended D Tommy Hughes, who hasn't quite met expectations yet and F  Josh Jooris. Neither are real threats to make the team at this point.

From the article:

Vigneault doesn’t seem to believe the physical McIlrath handles speed well enough defending and/or is mobile enough and capable enough on the critical first pass. That remains to be seen, but it is obvious McIlrath’s physical nature and enthusiasm on the ice are singular assets that benefit the Blueshirts.

But yet I Ching and declining defenseman have the necessary speed and ability, right? And they play even though they suck. With no chance to get better

Just play the guy a regular shift for 20 games. Then re-evaluate. Maybe AV will be pleasantly surprised.
