Before we get to the New York Rangers and their drive for the playoffs/fight for the top lottery position we’ll wrap up the WJC Tournament, a showcase for four Ranger prospects, maybe more. It was the last night of the tournament and there was an unexpected result.
WJC Final Update
Team USA couldn’t get it done and lost 3-2 to Finland in the gold medal game at the WJC tournament. Finnish star prospect Kaapo Kakko scored with 1:26 left in the game. So, the consensus second overall pick (Kakko), beat the consensus top pick (Jack Hughes). If you are a Ranger fan thirsting for a top lottery pick, you cannot miss with these two guys.
