For the first time since accepting a two-year offer from the Rangers, the Quebec veteran Alex Belzile spoke about the reasons for his departure.
As reported Anthony Marcottehe received several offers including one from the Canadian but the Rangers showed more interest, even going so far as to guarantee him a one-part agreement for the 2nd year of his contract
The Belzile clan and the Rangers have agreed to split the deal in two since only the second year of the agreement will be one-part. What the Canadians were not ready to offer him.
We tried to keep him in Montreal, even for two years. On the other hand, as we told him, at 32 years old, he had our support to get as much money as possible. And with the number of attackers we had, we had limits that we could not exceed.
– Kent Hughes
The Quebecer is having an excellent start to the season for the Rangers’ farm club in Hartford. In 21 games, he collected 7 goals, 15 assists for 22 points.
His team faces the Laval Rocket this evening and it was he who scored his team’s first goal.
