6. Gaborik's injury woes
Rangers GM Glen Sather raised eyebrows this summer when he signed talented but injury-prone winger Marian Gaborik to an expensive contract, making him the centerpiece of the Rangers offensive attack. The gamble paid off in his first dozen games as Gaborik notched 18 points to lead the Rangers and rank amongst the league's top 10 scorers. But soon the risk factor kicked in as Gaborik — who has a history of groin and hip injuries — suffered yet another leg injury. Although it's reportedly unrelated to his previous injuries and he's not expected to be sidelined for long, Gaborik's latest injury serves as a constant reminder the Blueshirts might have built their offensive house upon a fragile foundation.
