Questions

Dave & Aziz Nekoukar at The Blue Line has these questions going into the season...

- Who will be the seventh defenseman?

- Where exactly are the goals coming from on this team?

- Is Markus Naslund really capable of giving the team at least what Jagr gave last year?

- As we've asked so many times before, what the heck is Petr Prucha's role in this place?

- What the heck are guys like Rissmiller, Zherdev, Fritsche and Voros really going to give this season?

...listen the Rangers took a chance this off-season by letting go players such as Jagr, Straka, Avery and Shanahan. They could have resigned all of them and they'd be a decent team. But who wants a decent team? This team has a chance, if all the above questions (plus a few others) can be answered, to have a really special season.

...beyond this year, these moves will also lead to future successes for the franchise.
