Rangers Make Frolov Signing Official

from the New York Rangers,

New York Rangers President and General Manager Glen Sather announced today that the club has agreed to terms with unrestricted free agent forward Alexander Frolov.

Frolov has surpassed the 20-goal plateau in five of his seven NHL campaigns, including two 30-goal seasons in 2006-07 and 2008-09. Frolov, 28, has skated in 536 career regular season contests with the Los Angeles Kings, registering 168 goals and 213 assists for 381 points, along with 210 penalty minutes. He has recorded 24 multi-goal games in his career, including three career hat-tricks.

“Alex is a highly skilled player who we feel will play a key role in improving our offense and play in all situations,” stated Sather.  “He is strong competitor and has the ability to play either wing position.”

Turned down four years, $20-mil from khl.

That’s gotta hurt for a league that desperately wants people to think it can compete talent-wise with the NHL.

wonder if there was an “out” clause in the KHL offer?

And going with the Rangers isn’t too bad, could mesh well with Gaborik.
