More than anything, the Rangers need as many young defensemen in the system as they can. While a talented forward may be hard to pass on, a quality defenseman would be even harder. One quality defenseman that may be available for them: Cal Foote.
Son of ex-Colorado Avalanche defenseman Adam Foote, Cal has the ability to be a top 4 defenseman in the NHL. Similar to his father in some ways, and not in many others, he is exactly the type of player the Rangers need: a big, right handed defenseman that can move the puck well and defend with equal ability.
