I know all about his contract. Its not a bad contract. He has carried this team on his back for 6-7 years. Ive followed some rly bad teams over the years. They all had in common one thing, bad goaltending and just rly bad goaltenders. The blue jackets With Mason, Budaj for the avs etc. Those teams (back then) would pay alot more than the rangers for a goalie like Hank. That much is certain.
Without Hank we would be tanking and we wouldnt get anything for it
Biron retired early this season. Talbot got his nhl debut this season. So Sather had to keep Hank. The Cannucks had two elite goalies and decided to keep Luongo and not Schneider. The rangers had no Choice. We had one elite goalie, an old fill in and an unproved AHL goalie With not that impressive stats. Worst case senario would be that Hank wanted to leave and more or less forced a trade. Carter did that in CBJ. Why do u think so many posters are concerned about Girardi and Callahans future? Maybe because they want big contracts, other and better teams want them etc.
A smart general manager would do whatever it takes to keep one of the best goalies in the world. So no YOU dnt know what u are talking about. Whats the differense between the Rangers and Flyers? Goalies! Talbot wont be able to make us a cup contender. He is a nobody compared to Quick, Rinne and Rask. So if Hank dosent step up soon then we are screwed.
