2022-23 NHL TEAM PREVIEW: NEW YORK RANGERS Can the star-studded NYR go all the way this season? It may depend on whether their youngsters take steps forward. Story from zjlaing:
As a whole, this group will look more familiar than some may think. Andrew Copp, Frank Vatrano and Tyler Motte were all acquisitions last season and while Ryan Strome will be missed up front, the team has brought in Vincent Trocheck to replace him at the No. 2 center position.Otherwise, this is a group that largely stays intact.
Down the lineup, Filip Chytil was a part of a key line for the Rangers last year in the postseason, though it’s possible he’ll have different linemates than Lafreniere and Kakko going forward, and Sammy Blais, who is coming off a torn ACL, will look to contribute in a depth role this year, too.Adam Fox’s rise to being one of the best all-around defensemen in the NHL has been a swift one.
With $1 million in cap space according to CapFriendly, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see them add a veteran rearguard on a cheap deal before training camp for some organizational depth.OK, but seriously, he’s really good. Coming off a Vezina season, his emergence to the top of the goaltending ranks has been swift. He played the lion’s share of the Rangers’ games last year with 53 and his top “competition” was Georgiev, who was traded to the Avalanche this offseason.
