As the Rangers stay the course with their three headed goalie monster, there is more and more chatter about what the Rangers are going to do to alleviate the issue. All the focus is on Henrik Lundqvist, the face of the franchise, and his $8.5 million contract that expires at the end of next season. There’s good reason there, even if I disagree.
Lundqvist’s legacy and current contract aside for a moment, it’s clear the three-man rotation is more of a two-man rotation. Lundqvist has started four games in two months, with one brief appearance in relief sprinkled in.
