Flickr/FrenchKheldar Rangers Acquire McCabe The New York Rangers announced they have acquired veteran defenseman Bryan McCabe from the Florida Panthers for Tim Kennedy and a third-round pick.

As poorly as McCabe might be performing this year, scoring only five goals with 17 assists, a player of his caliber is a steal for what Sather gave up. McCabe, 35, will join the Rangers’ blueline in an effort to bolster their offensive production–especially on the power play. Despite a recent increase in success, including two conversions on four opportunities in the 6-0 victory of the Capitals last night, the Rangers’ power play has been something they’ve struggled mightily with all season.
