Ty Ronning has been lighting it up for the Vancouver Giants of the Western Hockey League (WHL) this season.
You may be thinking, “The WHL? Who cares?” or “Why should I pay attention to a former 7th round pick?”
Well, that 7th round pick currently sits has 36 points on the season. 24 of those points are goals.
In 26 games played…
Ronning is on pace to shatter the single-season goal scoring record for the Giants. The record was set when Buffalo Sabres’ forward Evander Kane scored 48 goals in 2008-09.
Ronning has quickly jumped up the Rangers prospect list and joined the likes of Filip Chytil and Lias Andersson.
