Rangers Draft & Free Agency Moves | NHL News

The Rangers wrapped up a busy draft with nine new prospects, including top pick Alberts Smits, and traded down to land Pavel Dorofeyev—a 25-year-old scorer poised to contribute right away. Now focused on free agency, they’ve extended qualifying offers to key players like Dorofeyev (reportedly nearing a massive 7-year, $77M deal) and Braden Schneider, while keeping Vincent Trocheck and Schneider despite trade rumors. With solid cap space even after potential Dorofeyev signing, the Rangers are entering free agency with clear direction and financial flexibility to build a stronger roster for the season ahead.
