CHICAGO — Veteran defenseman Raphael Diaz has reported to the AHL Wolf Pack with the understanding the Rangers will review his situation at the end of the month.
The 29-year-old Diaz, who cleared waivers last Saturday after the Blueshirts opted to keep rookie Dylan McIlrath as the club’s seventh on the blue line, is interested in the European option if he is not in the NHL.
The Blueshirts have told Diaz they will revisit the situation at the end of October, but have not promised to release him or assign him to a European team at that point.
