GREENBURGH, N.Y. – The Rangers’ rebuild is going according to plan, general manager Jeff Gorton said Sunday, and the next step in that plan could be an active summer in which the Rangers may be ready to dive into the free-agent market, or start trading some of those draft picks they’ve collected over the past couple years to try and speed up the timetable.
“We're at a place where you have to look at everything,’’ Gorton told reporters at breakup day Sunday, a day after the club won its final game of the season, beating the Pittsburgh Penguins, 4-3, in overtime, to finish 32-36-14.
