McDonough Signs Entry Level Deal with Rangers? (Updated)

Update, 11:41 a.m.:
Pronman apologies for incorrect info...

I apologize for the tweet about McDonagh, it was a false alarm from someone I knew in Wisconsin. Sincere apologies.less than a minute ago via TweetDeck


...goes to show if you get second-hand information you have to confirm it before going public. Especially with how quickly information like that can go viral on the internet.

Update, 11:17 a.m.:

An fyi in case it has been reported otherwise: No progress at all in talks between Rangers and Badgers' senior D Ryan McDonagh.less than a minute ago via web


...not sure what to think now. Guess we'll just have to wait until a formal announcement from Rangers.

Original Post:
Just got this tweet from Corey Pronman of Puck Prospectus...

Derek Stepan and Ryan McDonagh have signed entry level deals with the Rangers. Wisconsin coach in tears.less than a minute ago via TweetDeck

...not sure the validity of this report but you had to assume it was only a matter of time before McDonough signed especially after the Rangers locked up Stepan. I'll fill you in as soon as more details are available.

Thanks for the update Chuck. If you're hearing anything out of Wisconsin give us a headsup.

How good is this kid?

Richie, the kid is supposed to be a legit pro prospect. Lots of toughness and can chip in with some scoring.
