Hockeybird noticed the same thing I did about the comment sections under the TSN article announcing the Jan and Martin signings. I know it's nuts to get mad at those idiot commentors, but well, they're idiots! The first twenty messages all said basically the same thing, "There go the Rangers buying up talent again". What the Rangers actually did is pony up a million each for third-line guys with modest talent. This is a far cry from the spending sprees of years past... Or the spending of other teams this year. In fact, the only signing of consequence this year was DeVries, given that Leetch is a Ranger and was never going anywhere.

The Rangers will not have the highest payroll in the league this year, but I don't expect any of the haters out there to care about that. Quit hating.
