As he enters the final year of his seven-year contract, how has it gone so far?
The New York Rangers are in an interesting position entering training camp. Even with the roster being torn down a bit, the team is expected to contend for a playoff spot. The team has a new head coach in Mike Sullivan, a new top pairing defenseman in Vladislav Gavrikov, and a new captain in J.T. Miller.
One major question heading into training camp was the status of winger Artemi Panarin, who is entering the final year of his contract.
