From Jim Kelley at Sportsnet,
Lang is 36, and that’s likely the beginning of the end for him as a top-tier center in the NHL, but he likely can still be an effective power-play performer and second-line set-up man who would qualify for our list of five of the better bargains available in the free-agent pool come July 1.
He has good hands, scores in bunches, plays extremely well with the man advantage and knows how to get open ice for himself or find teammates who have it.
He’s also likely to accept a price cut from his just-completed salary of $3,800,000.
Which makes him a bargain and the center on our Free-Agent Bargain team.
more… (*including Zubrus, O’Donnell and more “specials”)
