The New York Rangers Selected forward Tim Gettinger in the Fifth Round with the 141st pick overall. A native of Olmstead, Ohio, the 6’6″ 205lb forward has played for the Soo Greyhounds for the past 2 seasons and has developed into a strong two-way forward. As with the Rangers first pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft Sean Day, he had fallen from a mid second round pick (depending on the draft listings anywhere from 51st overall to 73rd overall) into the Rangers lap at 141, and the Rangers took the best player they thought could fill a void in the future.
