NHL News: Rangers, Oilers, Capitals and Sabres

Justin Tasch of the NY Daily News: 34-year old Rick Nash is entering the final year of his contract that carries a $7.8 million salary cap hit.

“Every year I want to have the best year possible. But this year, it’s an important year for me personally,” Nash said Friday at Citi Field during an event promoting the Winter Classic between the Rangers and Sabres on New Year’s Day at the ballpark.

“Your contract’s up and you play for another contract. That’s what I’m facing this year,” he said.
