New York Rangers Must Learn From Kevin Klein, Trade Nick Holden

Nick Holden has been a pleasant surprise so for the New York Rangers, but there are signs that it may not continue, and management should learn from prior mistakes.

This past draft, Jeff Gorton and company of the New York Rangers made a trade that seemed surprising, yet small. That move was acquiring Colorado Avalanche defenseman Nick Holden for a fourth round draft pick in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft.

Many Rangers fans figured this was either a precursor for another move on defense, or Holden would be the seventh defenseman on the team.
