According to a new report from Larry Brooks, New York Rangers President John Davidson has told his team to be ready. “So it is incumbent on every player in our organization to show up in the best shape possible and be ready to go and compete and make an impression on Day One,” JD told the NY Post. “That’s it. Period. There’s no way around it.”
