Well the Rangers made a trade last year that still has a clause... if Roberts formally retires (by Sept 1, 2008) the Rangers will send a first rounder from the 2009 draft to the Ducks....
Rangers GM has been bugging Roberts agent steady lately.... Basically trying to get Roberts to play anther season....

It looks like all that pestering has worked out....
"Forward Gary Roberts intends to continue his NHL career next season, but it doesn't look like he'll do so in Pittsburgh."
Of course the clause still stays until Sept 1st but it sounds like Roberts is not going to retire which is great news!!!!!
