Rangers get a steal with 1 year contract extension.

Considering the kind of goaltending situations some teams around the NHL are facing, it was shocking today to hear the Rangers had secured the services of back up Cam Talbot for so cheap. Talbot has played relatively few games, which is understandable given the fact he backs up one of the very best in the league in Henrik Lundqvist. However what is less understandable is who the Rangers were able to ink him for one more year at just $1.45 million dollars. Talbot has a save percentage of .936 over the course of his 28 game Ranger career, and could have easily competed for a starting job on several NHL teams. There are a litany of teams looking for solid goal tending acorss the league, and one would have to believe Talbot could of earned himself a hefty payday if he tested the free agent waters.
