Rangers Rumor: Olli Jokinen KHL Bound?
Before I start, I would just like to give Laurie at Beyond the Blueshirts a stick salute for uncovering this story first. Now, onto my rambling. It seems like it is becoming a trend for potential New York Ranger free agents to look to the KHL for next season, as a day after former back-up ...
New York Rangers Stand Pat at Trade Deadline
Despite a storm of names swirling around this team all morning and over the last few days, the New York Rangers chose to make only one move today, a minor league deal sending Jordan Owens to the Detroit Red Wings for Kris Newbury.
