The rebuilding New York Rangers have a few intriguing center prospects knocking on the door to the big club. The hype surrounding players like Lias Andersson, Brett Howden, and Filip Chytil are merited due to their high upside, but what if the Rangers have a number one center already?
Mika Zibanejad could be on the road to becoming that guy. Since coming over from Ottawa in the Derrick Brassard trade, Zibanejad has shown flashes of becoming a dynamic scorer and play-maker.
His point per game total of .66 in his first season, and .65 in his second season shows a steady level of production on the offensive side while dealing with constant line changes.
