The New York Rangers singed forward Jimmy Vesey to a two-year extension through the 2024-25 season. According to sources, the annual average value of the contract is $800,000, which the Rangers feel give them flexibility to shape their roster amongst uncertainty over next year's salary cap.
Vesey, 29, is on his second stint with the Rangers. He is on a one-year deal which he signed after coming to training camp on a PTO. Vesey has six goals and six assists in 38 games this season. The organization has praised Vesey's team-first attitude and versatility, as he has moved up and down the lineup and has proven to be an important penalty killer for New York.
