Rangers trade Lee Stempniak to Winnipeg

Posted on Mar 1, 2015 by Dave | 17 Comments

Per Bob McKenzie, the New York Rangers have traded forward Lee Stempniak to the Winnipeg Jets for winger Carl Klingberg. Klingberg has 2 NHL games this season, while Stempniak was a useful bottom line/extra forward. This comes on the heels of the Keith Yandle trade and the rumored Mats Zuccarello extension. One thing’s for sure: Glen Sather is active.

How Lee Stempniak will affect his teammates

Posted on Aug 1, 2014 by Dave
