The 2019-20 New York Rangers have a number of youthful players who have a good chance of making the major league roster. As many as 11 rookies or second year players will make the team and that number could be even higher if there are injuries or if a prospect excels in the AHL.
The rookies who should definitely make the team are Kaapo Kakko, Vitali Kravtsov, Adam Fox and Libor Hajek. There’s an excellent chance that we will see Ryan Lindgren, Igor Shesterkin and Yegor Rykov at some point during the season.
Players in their second year include Lias Andersson, Filip Chytil, Alexandar Georgiev, and Brendan Lemieux.
