The New York Rangers are one of two NHL teams that are heavily pursuing 21-year-old college free agent Vinni Lettieri.
Lettieri had a breakout senior season for the Minnesota Golden Gophers this year. He ranks second on Minnesota in goals (19) and is tied for 30th in the nation in that same category.
Lettieri had more goals in his senior season than he had in his first three years in Minnesota combined. Fourteen of his goals came at even strength.
Back in 2013 Chris Dilks of SB Nation’s College Hockey blog offered his scouting report of a much younger (and smaller) Lettieri.
