5 best Rangers trades, post lockout - Blue Seat Blogs
Briefly

The New York Rangers will mark their 100th season, celebrating with a review of significant trades since the post-2004 lockout. One notable trade was acquiring Jaromir Jagr from Washington in January 2004, which greatly impacted the team post-lockout. Jagr's salary was effectively reduced due to a salary rollback, making it a favorable deal for the Rangers. He had an outstanding season in 2005-2006, scoring 54 goals and setting multiple records. Jagr played a significant role in Rangers' success for three seasons before leaving for the KHL.
The Rangers traded Anson Carter to Washington for Jaromir Jagr, who set multiple Rangers records and performed exceptionally over three seasons with the team.
Jagr's $11 million salary post-lockout was effectively reduced to $4.94 million after a salary rollback, allowing the Rangers to acquire him at a bargain.
