It’s been a hectic and super-productive last couple of weeks for the Rangers, but Jeff Gorton is far from done with his offseason to-do list.
The Rangers general manager landed the biggest fish in the NHL’s free agent pond on Monday when he locked up forward Artemi Panarin with a seven-year, $81.5 million contract.
This was Gorton's latest and biggest score of the summer, coming on the heels of his selecting forward Kaapo Kakko with the No. 2 pick overall in the NHL draft on June 21 and trading for defenseman Jacob Trouba on June 17.
But there is still plenty of work to do to get the roster in order in time for training camp.
