Shanny only wants the Rangers

Blueshirt Bulletin
July 15, 2008
Fritsche Re-Signs, Shanahan Still Seeking Ranger Contract
The Rangers have avoided going to arbitration with newly acquired forward Dan Fritsche, signing the 23-year-old Ohio native to a contract that Blue Notes believes is worth $875,000, a raise from the $750,000 he earned last season and the $825,000 qualifying offer he received from the Blue Jackets before they traded him to New York (see NYR.com for more). In other news, Brendan Shanahan's agent said the only team his client is talking to is the Rangers in denying a report that Vancouver offered him $2 million. And Howlings reports that the Wolf Pack have re-signed forward Mike Ouellette.

To read more about the recently traded Ryan Hollweg, see the Journal News, Newsday, Post, NY Sports Day, and Prospect Park. Those zany Islanders are at it again, firing coach Ted Nolan, the only reason the Isles had a sniff at the playoffs in each of his two seasons at the Mausoleum. Apparently, the overachieving coach was no match for puppethead GM Garth Snow, the former backup goalie who was chosen to replace a real GM, former Ranger manager Neil Smith, when Smith lost a power struggle. In both cases, underachieving egotistical goalie Rick DiPietro is believed to have been in the middle of it all -- see the Post and Newsday for more.

At Blueshirt Bullletin+ we have an interview with Ranger prospect Max Campbell courtesy of Jess Rubenstein.

New contract to keep Dawes in New York New York Rangers Jul 16, 2008, 11:43 AM EDT New York Rangers President and General Manager Glen Sather announced today that the club has agreed to terms with restricted free agent forward Nigel Dawes.


Nigel Dawes has much to smile about after signing a contract that ensures he'll continue playing home games at MSG.

Dawes, 23, skated in 61 games with the Rangers this past season, registering 14 goals and 15 assists for 29 points, along with 10 penalty minutes and a plus-11 rating. He led the club in plus/minus rating (plus-11), ranked second in shootout game-deciding goals (two) and tied for third in game-winning goals (four). His four game-winning goals also tied for second in the NHL among all rookie skaters.

Dawes registered five multiple-point games, including a multiple-goal game on October 25 against New Jersey at Madison Square Garden. During the 2008 playoffs, Dawes recorded two goals and two assists for four points, while appearing in all 10 of the Rangers’ post-season contests. In addition, Dawes skated in 20 games with the Hartford Wolf Pack of the American Hockey League (AHL), notching 14 goals and 20 assists for 34 points and a plus-eight rating. At the time of his recall on January 7, he ranked second on the Wolf Pack in goals (14), assists (20) and points (34). He also led all AHL skaters in points per game (1.70 points/game) and was tied for 16th in the league in points (34) at the time.

The 5-9, 190-pounder has skated in 69 career NHL games in two seasons with the Rangers, registering 15 goals and 15 assists for 30 points, along with 10 penalty minutes. In 2006-07, Dawes appeared in eight games with the Rangers, collecting one goal. He made his NHL debut on October 5, 2006 vs. Washington and notched his first career NHL goal on October 21, 2006 at Toronto.

Prior to the season, Dawes was named the winner of the 2006 Lars-Erik Sjoberg Award as the best rookie of the Rangers Training Camp, along with Brandon Dubinsky, as voted by select New York media. In addition, Dawes has appeared in 166 career AHL games with Hartford, registering 76 goals and 85 assists for 161 points, along with 52 penalty minutes.

The Winnipeg, Manitoba, native was originally selected as the Rangers’ fifth round draft choice, 149th overall, in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft.

If Sjostrom comes in at the $650,000 figure, the Rangers' cap situation is as follows:

Gomez @ $7,357,143; Drury @ $7,050,000; Lundqvist @ $6,875,000; Redden @ $6,500,000; Rozsival @ $5,000,000; Naslund @ $4,000,000; Zherdev @ $2,500,000; Kalinin @ $2,100,000; Mara @ $1,950,000; Prucha @ $1,600,000; Girardi @ $1,550,000; Voros @ $1,000,000; Rissmiller @ $1,000,000; Fritsche @ $875,000; Staal @ $826,667; Valiquette @ $725,000; Pock @ $667,500; Sjostrom @ $650,000; Dubinsky @ $633,333; Betts @ $615,000; Dawes @ $587,500; Callahan @ $575,000; Orr @ $537,500. That's a full 23-man roster -- fourteen forwards, seven defensemen, and two goalies who total just about $55,175,000, leaving just about $1.5 million.

However, Jaromir Jagr is believed to be owed a buyout of his contract option that is worth $760,000 and Brendan Shanahan's bonus overage from last year is believed to be in the $750,000 range, leaving the Rangers right up against the $56.7 million cap. The only room to move would be to replace Pock with a slightly cheaper option at #7 D (e.g. Corey Potter or Vladimir Denisov), to replace one of the new million dollar men, Voros and Rissmiller, or Fritsche, with a cheaper option from Hartford, or to make a cap-friendly trade, of which Prucha seems to be the only viable candidate. Even so, there appears to be no room whatsoever for re-signing Shanahan or adding another high profile player like Mats Sundin.
