In Sam Weinman's recent poll at The Rangers Report which asked fans which Ranger player they are most interested in hearing about this training camp, the overwhelming answer was Nikolai Zherdev..."So the early returns are in on my poll to the right, and it looks like we have our first mini-upset of the season. According to our tabulations, more fans are interested in young Nikolai Zherdev than anyone else, although the usual interest in up-and-coming prospects is there as well.
I count this as a surprise, and yet Rangers fans are correct in recognizing Zherdev’s vital role on this roster. The Ukrainian wing is coming off a career-high 61 points, and is arguably the team’s top goal-scoring threat this season (although you should hope that Markus Naslund and others have something to say about that)."
...i definitely agree that Zherdev is the most intriguing player going into training camp. He has the potential to put up huge numbers this year on Broadway. At the same time, if he doesn't buy into what Renney is selling, Zherdev could be feeling the rath of the Garden Faithful.
