The New York Rangers have had a whirlwind of a week.
With two trades, the first two NHL games for a rookie goalie, and three more losses added to their record, the team has been busy.
Let’s start with trade talk. The first trade to happen this week sent defenseman Nick Holden to the Boston Bruins in exchange for a 2018 third round pick and defenseman Rob O’Gara. In the first trade between these rivals, Michael Grabner was shipped across the Hudson River to the New Jersey Devils. In exchange, the Rangers acquired defensive prospect Yegor Rykov and a 2018 second round pick.
