The NHL buyout window is officially open, and so far there has only been one big name (Oliver Ekman-Larsson) on the buyout list. Buyouts aren’t the best cap management strategy, but sometimes they are necessary. Many are looking at the current cap crunch and hoping for some 2023 Rangers buyouts, but that is unlikely to be the case. At least not yet. For the most part, Rangers buyouts have been with 1-2 years left on contracts, save for Dan Girardi and Brad Richards (amnesty). Not many fit that bill.
Don’t expect any 2023 Rangers buyouts , at least not yet
