In an interview with Jim Jamieson at The Providence, Marcus Naslund talks about his time in New York...Q: When you signed with the Rangers year ago, had you made a decision it was time for a change or were you still open to returning to the Canucks?
A: I hadn’t made a decision prior to July 1. I was still talking with Mike (Canucks GM Gillis). I was hoping and expecting to have a choice about coming back. But after July came around, more and more I had the feeling it wasn’t meant to be and it was time for a change. Looking back, it was probably the right thing. I had a great time in New York. I was treated like a king there.
Naslund also says having a secondary role with the Rangers allowed him to relax.
...i thought Naslund was a solid (not great) signing last year. What was even more solid was him retiring allowing the Rangers to take his salary off the books.
