The New York Rangers now have their head coach in place. With the hiring of Peter Laviolette to lead the squad for the 2023-24 season, the focus now shifts to the NHL Draft and signing some players.
Free agency opens on July 1 and per PuckPedia, the Blueshirts have $11,762,918 in cap space with 14 players from last season under contract. Re-signing pending RFA’s Alexis Lafreniere and K’Andre Miller will be a priority. That being said, a capable backup is a must as well.
This offseason, Forever Blueshirts has been looking at some potentially low-cost options at forward.
