It’s literally Christmas in July for hockey fans as today marks the beginning of Free Agent Frenzy with the mayhem to commence at 12:00 pm et.
The New York Rangers are not expected to be big players when the bell rings because of limited cap space ($11.7 million) and two key RFA’s to re-sign in K’Andre Miller and Alexis Lafreniere.
One signing that is expected to happen per multiple reports is veteran goaltender Jonathan Quick, who will back up Igor Shesterkin for the 2023-24 campaign.
On Friday, a wrinkle to the entire free agent field occurred when over 100 players were added to the list via buyouts or restricted free agents not receiving qualifying offers.
