The New York Rangers have acquired forward Andrew Copp for the Winnipeg Jets for Morgan Barron and two second-round picks with conditions and options detailed below. The Rangers are also sending a 2023 fifth-round pick to the Jets and getting Winnipeg’s 2023 sixth-rounder.
Copp, who can play center and left wing, provides the Rangers with a versatile middle-six presence who can help drive play offensively — a key area of need for the Blueshirts. He has helped create an uptick in five-on-five offense for the Jets while he’s been on the ice.
