Day one of free agency for the NY Rangers is in the books. We expected the Rangers wouldn’t be too active today. And of course they were. The Rangers signed six unrestricted free agents and re-signed one of their restricted free agents. Here is the breakdown:
- Brandon Crawley (defenseman, RFA): one year deal, details not disclosed.
- Colin Blackwell (center): two years, $700,000 cap hit
- Anthony Bitetto (defense): two years, $737,000 cap hit
Quick Hits
The only player virtually guaranteed to have an NHL spot next year is Jack Johnson.
