It's common knowledge that the Rangers plan to target Brad Richards when he hits the free-agent market this summer. "The problem is, it's risky business for the Rangers to wait until July 1 for the Dallas center to become available to the highest bidder when a feeding frenzy marks the opening hours of free agency, and prices soar beyond reason due to the extremely limited supply of difference-makers on the market," writes Larry Brooks of The New York Post. The Maple Leafs and Kings are expected to make plays for Richards as well.
