Valentenko Returns from KHL

Day 18 of the newyorkrangers.com's '20 Prospects in 20 Days' brings us Pavel Valentenko, who the Rangers acquired in the Scott Gomez trade and just returned to North America after playing last season in the KHL.

Gordie Clark, Rangers' Director, Player Personnel, says...

"He's a guy you're not going to want to play against. He's aggressive and finishes his checks all the time. He is a physical, in-your-face defenseman. We knew him from his draft year and knew he played like a North American."

...that Gomez trade just gets better and better.

Glad to see this guy back from Russia. I think he could be a player for the NYR down the road.
