1. Wade Redden
The former captain of the CONNECTICUT WHALE was given a six year, 39 million dollar contract. That is not a typo either, because Redden became the highest paid player for the American Hockey League when he was waived and reassigned in 2010.
There is not much more to say here, as Redden played only two seasons with the Rangers and produced only 40 total points.
Slats certainly didn’t get Brian Leetch in this deal, but paid Redden Brian Leetch money.
