New York Rangers: A look at the backup goalie candidates

The New York Rangers recently signed goaltender Dustin Tokarski to a one-year contract. He will compete for the backup goaltender position this season behind Henrik Lundqvist.

The competition are the two goaltenders from the Hartford Wolfpack: Alexandar Georgiev and Marek Mazanec. All three have a good chance of earning the number two spot out of training camp. The other two will split time in Hartford, where they will try to solidify the crease of a Wolf Pack team who has struggled to play solid defensively for the past few seasons.

In addition, there are always options remaining in free agency that the Rangers could sign along the way.
