New York Rangers prospect Yegor Rykov may be Broadway-bound immediately

Training camp is a stone’s throw away from beginning and the New York Rangers continue to fine-tune their roster.

With Kevin Shattenkirk‘s contract bought out and the uncertain status of defenseman Anthony DeAngelo lingering in the hockey air, a small opening might appear in the team’s lineup.

The opportunity for Yegor Rykov to crack the lineup may be closer to a realization with the coaching staff reviewing every possibility.

The 23-year-old was a fifth-round (132nd overall) selection of the New Jersey Devils in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft.
