Now that Kevin Shattenkirk is out of the picture, we are starting to get a better idea of what the New York Rangers blue line is going to look like for the 2019-20 season. The biggest subtractions — Shattenkirk and Neal Pionk — and additions — Jacob Trouba and Adam Fox — are both obvious, but the changes go deeper than that.
Also out of the picture for next season are Fredrik Claesson and AHLers John Gilmour, Chris Bigras, Rob O’Gara, and Julius Bergman.
