Rangers Sign Gaborik; Neil to Stay in Ottawa

Per TSN, Winger Marian Gaborik has agreed to a five-year contract worth $7.5 million per with the New York Rangers.

TSN also says Chris Neil has decided to re-sign with Ottawa turning down the Rangers four year deal.

...sure Gaborik can fill the net, but that's when he stays healthy. Gaborik is coming off a season where he was only able to play in 18 games and besides the 2007-2008 season hasn't sniffed the 80 games played mark since the 2002-2003 season.

...having said that, if he can stay in the line-up the Rangers have one of the premiere snipers in the league.

...as far as Neil goes, I'm very happy to see him go back to Ottawa.
