New York Rangers GM Glen Sather continues to add veteran depth to his roster via this summer's UFA market, adding forward Markus Naslund and defenseman Dmitri Kalinin.

Details are still pending on the Kalinin signing but Naslund has been signed to a one-year, $4.5 two-year, $8 million contract.

Naslund's been considered a fading force in his final years with the Vancouver Canucks but it's possible he could bounce back if he weren't facing pressure to carry the offensive load.

This move might also be seen as possible enticement for Mats Sundin to sign with the Rangers although these signings likely means less room for the kind of money he's been attracting in the UFA market.

Kalinin struggled at times in his final two seasons in Buffalo occasionally earning a place in head coach Lindy Ruff's doghouse. It was rumored earlier this spring he might sign with a Russian team .

If Kalinin can rebound with a fresh start in New York he could be a solid addition to the Rangers blueline, but if not he could replace the departed Marek Malik as the favorite target of the MSG boo-birds.

**UPDATE** GM Glen Sather stated during a media conference call announcing this trade that Jaromir Jagr won't be back with the Rangers.

Kalinin's contract is a one-year deal, financial terms are still unavailable.
