The Rangers other possible draft choice, Jack Hughes

It finally happened….the hockey gods were finally on the Rangers side. On the night of April 9th, 2019, the New York Rangers struck gold at the NHL’s Draft Lottery.

They moved from 6th to 2nd overall after a long, grueling year; a year that we rooted for losses, tanking, development, and growth. It is now a year that will end with a beautiful prize at the end of it.

As we all know, the 2019 draft consists of two elite talents at the top, and a drop off to pick number 3. The Rangers are extremely lucky to be able to get their hands on one of those talents.
