The days are getting longer and longer for Jeff Gorton and the New York Rangers. The current salary-cap incompliance status ensures this to be the case.
Recently, defenseman Anthony DeAngelo has been pushed to the forefront of the salary cap issues.
The latest bump in the road came this past weekend when the Winnipeg Jets announced that they had signed defenseman Neal Pionk to a two-year, $6 million contract.
The 23-year-old was acquired from the Rangers in the Jacob Trouba trade in June. The Rangers announced that they signed Trouba to a seven-year, $56 million contract on Friday.
