New York Rangers: Could Kevin Shattenkirk Cure the Defense?

Another New York Rangers season has come and gone without the ultimate prize in hand. Another offseason looms where management looks to make all the right moves to bring the Stanley Cup back to New York.

Any Rangers fan knows the most vulnerable aspect of the team is the defense. Dan Girardi and Marc Staal, contract and money still in full force, are worn down from several years of playoff workload. Nick Holden and Kevin Klein showed promise at different intervals throughout the season. Adam Clendening was never a true contender for a position.
