Rangers Roundup: Returning Blueshirts, UFA targets, and more

Returning Rangers?

Jeff Gorton hinted at what he’s looking for when the bell for Free Agent Frenzy begins this weekend. The Rangers GM, is looking to sign “character” players that will help the young kids, not stars that will be taking away opportunity.

Gorton said he has been in touch with or is planning to talk to several pending UFAs, including former Rangers forwards Rick Nash, Michael Grabner and defenseman Nick Holden, and indicated he will be active in trying to sign players beginning Sunday, when the free agent market opens.
