No hard feelings, AV.
The Rangers signed left wing Daniel Paille to add depth up front on Thursday morning, bringing in a former Boston Bruin who helped ruin Alain Vigneault’s quest for the Stanley Cup by dropping his Vancouver Canucks in seven games in the 2011 Stanley Cup Final.
Paille, 31, will join the Rangers immediately for their two-game road trip through Carolina on Friday and Ottawa on Sunday, before the team plays its final pre-All-Star break match on Monday night at the Garden against Paille’s other former team, the Buffalo Sabres.
