Capitals Sign Michael Nylander.

The Washington Capitals have announced a four-year deal acquiring Nylander from the New York Rangers -- terms have not been released.

This is a surprise for most, as we all believed he was assisting the now barren team once referred to as the Edmonton Oilers. Nylander played for the Caps during the 2002-2003 season - so I can imagine he must have received something in the range of $20 million to support those six kids.

Ah, the wild ride of free agency.

More to come.

UPDATE: He signed for 4 years for $19.5 million. Not bad Dark Ranger....my original guess off by 500K.

Any offer of 'tickets at cost' is exactly that -- I have season tickets and will sell them for what I paid --- so no mark-ups.
