    1.85 per is fair. I expected 2 mill for him and 5 mill for Ziban on a longer non-bridge deal. So right in the ballpark. Want to stay at 7 +/- for the two combined.

    Love it. Love Fast. Guy should get no grief from morons in our fan base but always does. See the playoffs. Ziba is not getting 5. I would think 3 years, 10.5

    I agree. As long as AV leaves him in his role, a 4th line RW, I love Fast also. Get into trouble when AV moves him up to a spot he is not best suited for.

    As for Ziban, if it is 3-years I agree with you. I was thinking more like 4 or 5 years. Then the cap hit goes up. If it is only 3 I think 4 +/- is fair.

    Fast is a solid player who has a good track record in playoffs so its great to see this deal

    Anyone know where we are on exact cap space after Fast signing?

    If Klein finally decides to retire we'll have about 9m.

    Fast is a good signing. 3 yrs and doesn't break the bank money wise

    All is quiet on the trade front but lots of time.

    I predict Gorton s going to pull a trade to get a good Center that nobody sees coming....

    Read moron Brooks today. He now says AV is putting Miller back at center. That means that Gorton is definitely trading for a center because Brooks is never correct.

    I though Miller was a good player maker and made great passes last year. Maybe he will be better at center than wing. With that said idk how he is at draws. I never realized the importance of winning face-offs until I was drunk at a bar in Hawaii watching them lose face off after face-off to the Kings in the Stanley Cup finals .

    Maybe the rangers can unload Staal to the Leafs for JVR or Bozak and retain some salary

    Staal would never be able to bring back JVR. Rangers don't need to bring back salary. Staal is a salary dump.
