Straka Done in America...

Rangers winger Marty Straka has ended his NHL career, according to a Czech website. (Hope you can read Czech Republican if you click on it.) He will be playing with the Plzen hockey club in the Czech Extra League. Straka was a warrior, and he will be missed. He played severely hurt in 2006-07 (with a not reported torn bicep) and injured in 07-08 yet never complained and didn't miss a shift if he was able to.

How this relates to Jaromir Jagr will be seen on July 1. 

With a glutton of forwards signed already, as restricted free agents, or unrestricted (Jagr, Brendan Shanahan, Sean Avery), the Rangers should concentrate on defense. Look for my defensive preview tonight or tomorrow.
