The Rangers have the 2nd overall pick on Friday, and we all know what’s going to happen there. We’ve also got the 20th pick in the first round though, acquired from Winnipeg in the Kevin Hayes trade, as well two second rounders, a pick in each of the following rounds, and one pick each round in the 2020 draft (far away, I know). Recently there’s been some scuttlebutt about trading a whole host of assets for Jacob Trouba and presumably an extension, but there’s something else the Rangers could do if they want to pull off a blockbuster: trade up at the draft, and by that I mean way, way up.
