It’s time to take another look at the 2021 expansion draft and how it will affect the New York Rangers. There are still some contractual issues to be resolved (Tony DeAngelo and Brendan Lemieux), but with training camp about to begin, we can look at which player the Rangers could potentially lose.
The most important thing to know is that regardless of which player it is, the impact on the Rangers will be minimal. It won’t be one of their budding young stars or established star players. No matter who they lose, that player will be replaced by a player from the organization with the best prospect pool in the NHL.
