The Rangers are taking care of business. They are moving on to their RFAs, and yesterday re-signed both Alex Georgiev and Tony DeAngelo to two year deals. Both contracts were relatively expected given how the offseason played out around the league. As per usual, I have some thoughts. I’m going to try to keep this as unbiased as possible (at least I call myself out on it).
1. Starting with Georgiev, re-signing him was a foregone conclusion once the Rangers committed to buying out Henrik Lundqvist. Two years is about right and allows the Rangers to take their time to evaluate their goaltending future.
