I've said I don't think Cally is worth 6 mil per, and still don't. However, every year salaries go up. This year with the cap going up there are going to be some crazy contracts given out. It's not what we think he's worth or comparing to prior contracts given out. It's what is the market now or this offseason. We all suspect Buffalo will go much higher and Cally's people know that. Others teams might also when it gets down to it. That's what he is looking at. While I'd have no problem trading him, I wouldn't give him away for a bag of pucks. If they're offered little for him, I'd rather sign him. Is $300,000 or even close to a mil per really that big a deal? Sather will probably blow that much or more on some 4th line horrible FA signing anyway. I'll be glad when it's over one way or another.
The only team that will offer Callahan anything close to that is Buffalo only because he is from there and they have literally NOTHING but draft picks to sell to the fans right now.
Sather knows 6/36 is more than he is worth so he wont budge. Don't have a problem with that. This deal will get done at 6/36 as many have said all along

8:33PM: “the price is still too high in the moment but this is a negotiation that seems to be changing by the hour. There is going to be on-going dialogue between the Rangers and Stephen Bartlett who represents Ryan Callahan but the Rangers are still open to pretty much every single option. Could they negotiate an extension and keep him as captain of the Rangers, yes they can do that. Could they find a suitable trade partner and trade him by the trade deadline, yes they could do that. As I said, there is nothing imminent on that front and they will pursue every option available. (Darren Dreger)

9:21PM: The Rangers, as of Tuesday night, were not any closer to striking a deal with Callahan than they were Tuesday morning. (NY Post)
Callahan is staying at six-years and $39 million while the Rangers are adamant about staying at six years and $36 million. Both sides feel that they have conceded enough already. (NY Post)
The Blues offered up Chris Stewart in a straight up swap, before he was sent to Buffalo, but the Rangers passed. Columbus has interest in Callahan but is not willing to pay what the Rangers are looking for. (NY Post)
