On Monday morning, after pending restricted free agent Mats Zuccarello scored twice during Sunday's snowfall, Norwegian online newspaper Nettavisen reported the Rangers and Zuccarello's representatives at Newport Sports have begun negotiations exploring a potential extension to his one-year, $1.15 million deal.
Zuccarello's agent, Craig Oster, told the Daily News on Monday afternoon that while nothing new has happened recently, he and the Rangers have had "preliminary talks" and that both expressed satisfaction with their current arrangement and a willingness to revisit that discussion.

Would not involved
- Contract negotiations have started. Rangers talking with my agents now, but I have asked not to be involved in it, says Mats Zuccarello to the online newspaper.
There is no doubt that he has a strong wage increases in wait. Agents tend to compare their clients with other players who have signed new contracts and providing comparable performance, and in this case, Brad Marchand Boston Bruins set an example.
Marchand is 25 years and produced 36 points in 45 games last season. The previous year he produced 55 points in 76 games. A total of 91 points in 121 games those two seasons, averaging 0.75 points per game.
Marchand was called "restricted free agent" (RFA) when he signed his new contract, which is worth $ 18 million over four years - that $ 4.5 million is seasonal.
