[QUOTE="snova031, post: 3079927, member: 576899"] Drury/Gomez and Rafalski's deals are pretty close in terms of numbers. 5 year/30mil for Brian(avg 6mil/yr), 5 year/35mil for Chris (7mil/yr), and 7 yr/51mil for Gomez (7.3mil/yr). Considering what was on the market, and the general consensus that Gomez/Drury were two of the top 3 forwards available- the other being Briere, and that both were within their conference, I think they're great deals for the Rangers. The Rangers are in pretty good shape defensively- they added Mara at the trading deadline and he played great for them down the stretch, and Girardi was a nice surprise coming up towards the end of the season. Malik is a solid defender with size, and Pock, Tyutin, and Rozsival are all very good,young players. Like I said, once the Rangers lock up Henrik, Avery, Shanahan, and Prucha, they'll be in good shape. [/QUOTE]
