Rangers Bet Big on Defense | New York Rangers News

The Rangers are betting big on defense this offseason, with GM Chris Drury stacking the backend around Vezina winner Igor Shesterkin and Norris champ Adam Fox. Veteran goalie Martin Biron predicts they’re primed to dominate low-scoring games and even contend for the Jennings Trophy. Expect up to three new defensemen, including Sean Durzi — a solid, if injury-prone, two-way asset. With Joonas Korpisalo and Dylan Garand backing up Shesterkin, the Rangers may even experiment with a three-goalie system to keep their star netminder fresh. The strategy? Tighten the defense, improve puck movement, and let Shesterkin’s elite play carry the load — even if offense still has gaps.
