Dryden Hunt was an under the radar signing for the Rangers compared to the rest of their moves. Hunt, 25, plays both wings and comes with a very cheap cap hit of $762,500 over the next two seasons. When the Rangers made this signing, they were looking to replace Colin Blackwell, lost to expansion to Seattle. Hunt is primarily a bottom six winger who plays a solid defensive game. He’s a good skater who can move the puck and is tenacious on the forecheck. With the emphasis on being more aggressive in the offensive and neutral zone forecheck, Hunt checks a lot of boxes for the Rangers to round out that bottom six.
