The Rangers are set to make their first splash in the undrafted free agent pool, targeting RW Jake Elmer of the WHL’s Lethbridge Hurricanes.
In other words, Elmer is as young a junior hockey free agent as you can get. Had he been born a day later, Jan. 1, 1999, he would have been draft eligible this year. He’s eligible to sign a three-year entry-level NHL contract.

Elmer has thrived with Dylan Cozens, as McKenzie noted, putting up 38-40-78 in 66 games.
