VANCOUVER — When you take a guy on the first day of the draft who most everyone believes will be a transformational player, the second day can be, let's say, anticlimactic. For the Rangers, who were probably still giddy after nabbing Finnish forward Kaapo Kakko with the second overall pick Friday night at Rogers Arena, things were a little quiet Saturday as they closed out the weekend by drafting seven more prospects — none of whom had the wow factor that Kakko does.
"Unfortunately, with seven rounds, we can’t get seven Kakkos, right?'' Rangers GM Jeff Gorton said.
