Sunday Link Dump

Late July into August is generally a slow time for hockey. This year, it will be even slower for the Rangers, as they have no players headed to arbitration, and only one key cog still outstanding in Marc Staal. In this new feature, every Sunday we are going to collect great Rangers and NHL pieces from the blog-o-sphere and link them from here.

Jess Rubenstein of Prospect Park goes in-depth about what to expect in 2010 from the rangers farm system. For those of you expecting to see the prospects make the big club, you are in for a rude awakening.

Laurie Carr of Beyond the Blueshirts explains the Pavol Demitra situation, and how he almost became a Ranger.

RangerSmurf at Blueshirt Banter has crunched some numbers and brought up some realistic expectations for Ryan Callahan.

And finally, The Dark Ranger explains that Glen Sather actually does have a plan. It’s definitely worth reading, especially if you’re sick of reading what I have to say on the matter.
