New York Rangers Prospects
As I wrote in the prologue of our prospect rankings, the Rangers left me with a (good) problem. Quite a few players on the Rangers last season were very young players who still hover close to prospect status. I didn’t want to shoehorn all of them into prospect rankings,

5. Adam Fox, Right Defense 2018 Ranking: N/A Age: 21 Acquired Via: Trade (2019) This is mostly a copy-and-paste of my scouting report on Fox from back in May. Fox has been an offensive defenseman throughout his entire amateur career, and that will continue to be his identity in

10. Joey Keane, Right Defense 2018 Ranking: 18 Age: 20 Acquired Via: 2018 Draft (Third Round) Joey Keane’s 2018-2019 season can be best summed up by the Gartner Hype Cycle.

30. Ty Ronning, Right Wing 2018 Ranking: 22 Age: 21 Acquired Via: 2016 Draft (Seventh Round) As great as 2017-2018 was for Ty Ronning, last season was equally disappointing. He started the season in Hartford, getting limited usage. By November, he was sent to the ECHL, where he put up
