Larry Brooks of the New York Post tweets
that the New York Rangers are close to re-signing Steve Eminger. Eminger played very well at times during his
first season with the Rangers, but just as importantly showed that he can
handle being a healthy scratch for periods of time and still be ready to help
the team when he is needed. I called for
this move just over a month ago as Eminger
is an ideal insurance policy for the Rangers young defense as he can play
on the third pair if someone is not ready, struggles or gets injured while
sitting if he is not needed.
