7 goals he's got, which is leading the league.
he's scored in all but one of the Rangers last 7 games, and he's got 4 power play goals.
Maybe he just needed a jersey change.

I don't wish Shanahan any bad luck at all, despite my being a Red Wings' fan, but it's more about what a player of Shanny's reputation does during the playoffs than what he does in the regular season. He all but disappeared in the playoffs last spring. It will be interesting to see what he accomplishes next spring, assuming the Rangers qualify.

I think they'll qualify and if Shanahan does well in the playoffs with the Rangers unlike he did with the Wings it might be because of the change of scenery ala Jaromir Jagir.

whoever could have seen that one, Shanahan and Jagr playing together? almost seems surreal.
I kinda hate the Ranger front office habit of only picking up superstars.

That seems to be the "New York state of mind."

the rangers have not been doing the superstar pick up of late which is good but they did with shanny cause he wanted a 1 yr deal and not a huge amount of money, hell any nhl team would of made that deal he jsut wanted to be in new york

Break up the Sabres. They're trying to take all the fun out of the Eastern race.

As opposed to the Leafs habit of picking over the hill former stars????...Is that what you mean...

We've taken a new road. Our average age is now under 30. i think.
um, and we couldn't afford him and I don't think he showed any interest in us.
i was just curious why new york over any other team, not that it's a bad choice.
