Interesting indeed. I saw a bit of him when he was with the Pens. He has a really good wrister and decent speed. Anaheim wasn't really using him all that well, but I don't think he's the cure for our problems. It's kind of like claiming Petr Prucha off waivers.
Vally hasn't played well enough to keep the spot, but I'm really surprised to see him get waived. He's been an important part of this team for several years now.

Yep, agreed.
All this talk of firing Allaire and such, what do they do - waive Valley? I wonder if it is just the beginning to an even bigger deal. Maybe Henrik isn't 100% ?
I never saw the Rangers as being an organization THAT deep in goaltending.
Johnson impressed me in preseason - is he the only choice considering the cap? Valliquettes cap hit wasn't very much so i doubt it was solely just to clear space for something bigger. Christensen's hit is the exact same... so with Vally becoming an upcoming UFA i guess its an even swap. I feel bad for him he was a good soldier.
Christensen will add some offensive instincts but i havent seen him play much since he was in the East. Does he just play center? If so what are they trying to do here? Balance the lineup? Dubinksy is coming back soon. Or is it precautionary with Drurys condition?
Either Pa goes down or Voros gets waived. My guess
What's the sense in waiving PA to replace him with Christensen? They're very similar players and I'd actually give the edge to Pappy.
With the "toughness" Voros brings, I doubt he gets waived. He's lousy, but he's been a better alternative to Brashear recently.
You could certainly be right, but if they were going to waive Voros, wouldn't they have done it already? Or can you only have one player on the wire at a time?
