From Larry Brooks of the NY Post:
Sharks are on Marian Hossa’s short list on which the New York Rangers, Penguins and Red Wings also appear, a source reports. If San Jose adds Hossa, who is believed seeking between $7.5-8M per, they will intensify their efforts to deal Jonathan Cheechoo, who was dangled at the draft. Blueshirts will be all ears.
Brian Campbell, good but hardly a difference-maker, is seeking $7M a year. That’s why there is going to be so much interest – cough, cough, Rangers – in Montreal’s Mark Streit, who compiled 52 of his 62 points from the point this season and will probably come in at half Campbell’s cost.

Rumors have been around for a while that the Rangers are interested in both Hossa and Streit. Personally, I think Streit should be of more priority than Hossa. The Rangers don’t particularly need another big money, long-term deal like Hossa will demand and the team is in dire need of a point-man on the power play. Never mind the fact that he will cost significantly less.
