Tanner Glass –

It is on the record that I am not a Tanner Glass fan, I never was and never will be. The New York Rangers and Tanner Glass came to terms on a three-year, $4.35 million contract on July 1, 2014. Tanner Glass plugged into the Rangers 4th line for 134 games throughout the three-year contract. He contributed six goals and nine assists during his tenure with the Rangers. He also kept younger, more talented players sitting in the press box.

Glass left his biggest impact during his Rangers’ tenure during the first round battle last season against the Montreal Canadiens. The Rangers desire to have a “tough” guy in their lineup brought them together with Tanner Glass. The $4.35 million could have been used elsewhere in 2014 but it’s in the past now. The three-year contract just came to an end this season and Tanner Glass is set to become an unrestricted free agent once more. It is time for Glass and the Rangers to go their separate ways.
