The New York Rangers were one of many teams to place several of their players on waivers on Monday. The seven are Anthony Bitetto, Colin Blackwell, Jonny Brodzinski, Brandon Crawley, Gabriel Fontaine, Anthony Greco, and Keith Kinkaid.

Nothing here is too surprising. It’s unlikely that any of these players are claimed, but some have a stronger chance than others.
Blackwell emerged as a potential candidate to provide depth at the center position for the Rangers, something they very much need, but it looks like the organization has other plans.
