Patrick Kane Watch: Rangers hold out Kravtsov and Leschyshyn for ‘roster management’

The Patrick Kane watch to the New York Rangers is officially on.

Prior to tonight’s game versus the Detroit Red Wings, the team announced that Vitali Kravtsov and Jake Leschyshyn were not available due to roster management.

Forever Blueshirts has been following the possibility of still fitting in Kane under the cap since February 14. After the Rangers acquired Tyler Motte for Julien Gauthier, we discussed with PuckPedia to rework the scenario.

Here what we determined on February 19:

  • Waive Jake Leschyshyn by February 25 to accrue $1.
