I'd say Redden is better than Bickel. Probably better than Gilroy. But I don't think that he is better than Eminger at this point and if you'd ask NYR management if they'd risk a long term injury negating a buyout for a borderline upgrade at 6th-7th D I think they'd say that was an unnecessary risk.

That's what I'd have to believe, this guy was an all star talent and he's not that old. I would imagine he would be highly motivated if given another shot to get into the NHL, PROVE HIMSELF.
