New York Rangers (NHL 10)

[sdjbiman]

Rosters: I will be starting with the default rosters put in the NHL 10 game. I will start with the start of the season and skipping the 09 draft.
Sliders: OBG's Sliders on Superstar, first couple of games were testing stuff out, but I think I found a competitive balance with OBG's sliders along with some tweaks. 7-minute periods.

Rangers Claim Martin Biron Off Waivers, Valiquette Sent to Minors

The Rangers decided to make a move today to grab the netminder Marty Biron off waivers from the Islanders. He should be able to shoulder some of the workload so that Lundqvist doesn't have to do it all. He will be making periodic starts and should be a solid back-up.
