It was reported that the Rangers increased their offer for Nash to Dubinsky, Tim Erixon, 2011 1st rounder JT Miller, Christian Thomas, and a 2012 1st. Previously, Erixon was out of the deal, with 2010 1st rounder Dylan McIlrath in his place, and Miller was considered untouchable. Seems like nothing would get done while Sather refused to part with McDonagh or Del Zotto. Thankfully he held his ground. I was comfortable with the offered deal on Sunday, and if that modified one went through, I would have been so-so on it.
When you factor in the length of Nash's cap hit, I would really be surprised if Howson could do better than that offer. What he reportedly was demanding from San Jose was absurd.
