Naslunds statement-
"I would like to sincerely thank Glen Sather and the New York Rangers for giving me the opportunity this past season in New York," said Naslund. "I would also like to thank the Vancouver Canucks and all of their fans for their support over the 11-plus seasons I was a part of their organization, as well as to the Pittsburgh Penguins where I began my NHL career."
When the rangers signed Markus Naslund i was not happy. It was amazing to me that Sather would let Jagr walk away for a guys who's been struggling with the new NHL. I knew he was going to have a mediocre season in which he did. He was slow as hell and invisible most of the time. With all of this he was really classy. Especially retiring when he did and saving the Rangers some cap money instead of waiting and let the Rangers buy him out and cost them 2 million in cap space. It was a good time for him to retire because he wasnt producing like he use to.
NASLUND IS THE DEFINITION OF CLASS
