Tonight on Blueshirt Banter Radio, we got what could be a little bit of a scoop. Our good friend Ricky, who does a tremendous amount of sports marketing and promotion, including a lot with the Rangers, had a card signing booked for Ales Kotalik in March. Ricky has received a call from Kotalik's agent cancelling the signing, and has refunded the money to Ricky that he paid up front for the signing.Read Full Story
According to the agent, Kotalik has asked for a trade, telling the Rangers he is not happy with the organization, and wants to be traded, released, or he will return to Russia. Kotalik has allegedly told the Rangers he would like to be traded out west.
If this happens to be the full truth, there really couldn't be a better thing for the Rangers right now. Kotalik's production on the powerplay was went down, he has not performed in the shootout like he was expected to, and his even strength play is horrid. It is to the point where Head Coach John Tortorella will not even enter the winger back into the lineup with the way he has played.
Kotalik has a 3-year/$9 million contract which has a no trade clause kicking in the second season.
