DeAngelo bought out

It’s old news, but the Rangers finalized their buyout of Tony DeAngelo on July 23.  The buyout will cost the Rangers $383,334 this season and $883,334 next season.  It means a saving of $4.42 million towards the salary cap.  The question is which team will be willing to roll the dice and take a chance on the talented, but volatile blueliner.

  • Wednesday, July 28 (12 pm) – Free agent frenzy begins.   Rangers’ UFA’s are Phil Di Giuseppe, Jack Johnson, Brendan Smith and prospect Darren Raddysh.
