Ten days into free agency, the Rangers still don’t have their center situation fully figured out. David Desharnais was an incredibly smart, frugal signing. However, that still leaves one spot to fill. The current free agent market offers little in the way of help. Trades are always possible, but

It is time for another year of preparing for the NHL Draft, and as usual I will take a bunch of shots in the dark at guessing which player the Rangers will draft late in the second round. It’s always tough waiting around as all the top talent is
