Larry Brooks at the New York Post has an interesting item at the end of his interview with John Tortorella on Donald Brashear where he talks about the possibility of the Rangers landing Dallas Stars center Brad Richards...
"There is, however, widespread belief that Dallas owner Tom Hicks' financial problems -- his team canceled prospects camp in order to save money -- will force the Stars to cut payroll . . . with the cutting to feature former Tampa Bay Conn Smythe winning first-line center Brad Richards, who has two years at $7.8 million remaining on his deal.
It would take a newer new math to figure out how the Rangers could accommodate Richards under the cap, but there is no doubt that Sather will try if Dallas has to move him."
Richards, 16 goals, 32 assists in 56 games last year, still has two years left on his contact at $7.8 million per.
...tough to comment on bringing Richards here without knowing who would be going back.
