Rangers Had Deal in Place for McCabe

Andy Strickland, a St. Louis NHL reporter, at his blog True Hockey wonders with the Rangers in need of a defenseman if they will revisit a deal that almost went down for Panthers D Brian McCabe several weeks ago.

Stickland ads that McCabe’s broken jaw prevented the trade from happening but multiple sources confirm a deal was in place.

…i love hearing these type of things. If a deal was really in place, which players were going back? When you don’t hear about the return on the big time player I become very suspect.

…a question I have is why is everyone saying the Rangers are in need of defensive help? The Rangers have much bigger holes in their lineup than on defense. Play-making center and a scoring winger to start.
