A lil more info on the Rangers involved in last years 2 trades.

The Rangers and Columbus Blue Jackets meet for the first time since the Rangers, in two different trades, sent Marian Gaborik, Brandon Dubinsky, Artem Anisimov and Tim Erixon to Columbus for Rick Nash, Derick Brassard, John Moore and Derek Dorsett.
The former Rangers, who were sent to Columbus following the 11-12 season, have:

• Brandon Dubinsky: 3 goals, 6 assists in 14 games
• Artem Anisimov: 4 goals, 3 assists in 14 games
• Tim Erixon: (AHL) 2 goals, 7 assists in 6 games
• Marian Gaborik: 5 goals, 5 assists in 13 games

Derek Stepan told the Rangers website that he expects to hear Dubinsky chirping.
